36 Chapter 35 - Creating a Stir within the Elemental Sec (1/2)
Dana planned to not fully unleash the full prowess of the martial skill in what Dana is truly capable of, but that doesn't mean she planned to let the audience off.
Dana wanted to show enough of her comprehension talent, that the capabilities she shows will be superior to most of the individuals here, thus showing that she isn't some pushover which can be openly mocked in being inferior.
As if the talent she shows now is 'inferior', then what does that make them?
However, Dana didn't take into account how truly good her comprehension is, so when she performed her martial skill alongside Prince Cheng and Princess Hui Ying, although it wasn't her full proficiency in the skill, it still exceeded there's.
The audience originally thought Dana was there to be a minor character, to demonstrate the difference between them and 'True Geniuses', this whole thing was a fiasco to practically humiliating Dana in addition to sending a message to them how minor they are compared to the true top characters within the Elemental Sect.
This was why they put all their focus onto Prince Cheng and Princess Hui Ying's martial skill and didn't even spare a glance at Dana, but now seeing Dana's result in comparison, the dominating display they expected wasn't from Prince Cheng and Princess Hui Ying at all!
Instead it was from the person they looked down upon this entire time!
Sure both Prince Cheng and Princess Hui Ying martial skill was remarkable, showing their extraordinary talent in the younger generation, as they comprehended around 45% mastery of the martial skill within six hours, which in comparison to most of them which barely got 7% made them feel the vast gap between them.
But, this wasn't the amazing thing, as they were completely outshined by the 'minor character' next to them which managed to get an astonishing 55% mastery of the skill, a difference in 10% may not seem to be large, but what is truly incredible is the further mastery of a martial skill you have, the harder it is to increase even further.
In fact, this wasn't truly Dana's fault, as a result of her powerful soul with soul cultivation, her already monstrous talent in comprehension was boosted even further.
Why is soul cultivation important?
As you need a good comprehension to cultivate your soul it is exceedingly difficult to progress in, there are many benefits soul cultivation brings towards an individual but an additional benefit is that as it increases, your overall comprehension, thus making Dana have an absurd talent in this area.
In fact, Dana had already achieved 100% mastery of the martial skill, which if known would cause the audience to die from shock.
Why did Dana make such an error?
As she had no one to compare to with her talent, she previously thought lowering it that much will make it much inferior to what Prince Cheng and Princess Hui Ying demonstration to the audience, but she truly underestimated herself, making this the result of the previously planned one-sided competition!
This slaps the fact of not only the Elemental Sect elders but even the Ironclaw Empire who was expecting a domineering display!
The result?
Not only did this not happen but the two new geniuses they expected to carry the Ironclaw Empire into a generation of propsperity, were completely overshadowed by Dana making their scheme in building a famous reputation for Prince Cheng and Princess Hui Ying was ruined!
Instead, they would be seen as nothing but a joke, as Dana an individual with no background at all triumphed over the two most promising geniuses of the Ironclaw Family in the last thousand years!
Thus, 10% is the difference between heaven and earth, showing a complete landslide victory in terms of comprehension.
Seeing the audience reactions, the once haughty faces of Prince Cheng and Princess Hui Ying became confused, aren't they suppose to be complimenting their talent?
Why do they look so stunned, and are looking within that trashes direction?
Looking at the trash, they saw nothing special or spectacular about that person, at the start as soon as they glimpsed at that person they instantly didn't put the masked individual within their eyes at all and ignored him.
So upon seeing such a reaction from the audience, they assumed it must be because that individual's talent is so bad, it even dumbfounded the audience?
Both of them wouldn't even come up with the prospect of Dana surpassing their result
Snickering at such result Princess Hui Ying couldn't help but comment, ”What is this trashes comprehension so awful he didn't even manage to comprehend the martial skill at all?”
This drew laughter from Prince Cheng, yet the audience still remained silent instead throwing mocking glances at Princess Hui Ying.
Prince Cheng knowing something was wrong, attempted to warn Princess Hui Ying but he was too late before she can continue her rant.
”So has this trash broke records of the number one trash in the Xinghai Continent?” Continued Princess Hui Ying, as she was extremely annoyed that this individual has stolen her limelight for being trash, she threw away her 'Kind' act.
As she was about to join the Elemental Sect she didn't care about maintaining her image anymore, as seeing the geniuses in the sect which were much more talented than her, broadened her horizons.
Why would she care what these minor characters think?
They are nothing to true power, as long as I can rope in one of the geniuses with my beauty I will live alongside a dominant Emperor who will one day rule this continent!
With these thoughts, why would she care about insulting some minor character?
Before she can continue even further to 'dig herself in a hole', one of her escorts a middle-aged man at the Xiantian realm stopped her from disgracing herself even further.
”Princess that's enough.” He told her urgently.
”Are you defending that trash? So what if I insult him, isn't it just trash what is there to worry about?” Princess Hui Ying snidely replied, but upon looking further towards the audience instead of the ridiculing looks directed at the 'trash', she instead found these looks were directed towards her.
Why are they looking at her like this?
Aren't they suppose to be laughing at the trash?
As these thoughts emerged within her mind, she realised something was wrong.
”Uncle, what's wrong?” Princess Hui Ying quietly spoke.
