Chapter 316: Proposition (1/2)

The fights went on, but none of it were much interesting. The ones that were interesting somehow didn't entice the audience since they knew the ones fighting weren't strong fighters and would likely get stomped next match.

Still, it was fun to watch, and people enjoyed it. Everyone watched it, except Alex. He tried to watch it, but he couldn't do anything but analyze what Wen Cheng had said and quickly learn it.

”Oh yeah, what about the 2 elements, Yin and Yang?” Alex asked.

”Those? Yin and Yang are always better than the other 5, but due to the fact that they don't induce any of the 5 effects, they will interact in the same way as when 2 of the same elements interact. Whichever one is stronger overall, wins,” Wen Cheng said.

Alex fell into another deep thought as his one query was answered. But he couldn't keep that for long as Yang Ma took the stage, followed by Du Yuhan in a few more minutes and finally Luo Mei.

The three of them had easy opponents and couldn't show off their full strength. Yang Ma simply showed off his aura to make his opponent get scared into forfeiting.

Du Yuhan attacked the opponent with his sword and made him faint without cutting him.

While Luo Mei fought like a normal weaker girl and found like one before winning in a few minutes. She was still hiding her abilities, everyone was.

Once more of the matches ended, Alex stood up and bid farewell to Wen Cheng before leaving.

”Oh, you are back. I was about to ask someone to get you,” Ma Rong said. ”So, how was it? Did he teach anything regarding the fights?”

”Uh… Yes? No? I don't know,” Alex said.

”Hmm? What do you mean?” Ma Rong said.

”He taught me the Elemental theory during a fight between elemental users,” Alex said.

”Ah, that! That was what I wanted you to learn by yourself through trial and error, but it seems he already taught you that. Well, whatever, it was barely going to help you what ingredients to put in and what not to. Not that it matters since you will have to understand how that affects the usage of a pill,” Ma Rong said.

Alex nodded. The elemental knowledge was still weighing heavily on his mind. ”Let's leave”, Ma Rong said once Wan Li and the rest had come back.

Unfortunately, the girl had lost in the 1st round, but everyone still consoled her for trying. They also congratulated Wan Li and the other guy for winning their matches.

”Alright, let's leave,” Ma Rong said and took her sect's people with her. It was a long day, and it was nearly 5 pm. So no one really wanted to do anything but simply go back to the hotel and rest.

After reaching the hotel each of them went back to their rooms. Alex went straight to his bed and sat down to think about what he had learned today.

He tried thinking of each scenario and started devising what the result would be. He analyzed as much as he could before and after the meeting at 7 pm.

Even halfway through the night, he kept on learning about it. Only after then did he think that he truly learned everything.

Overnight, he cultivated with Pearl but it was not a lot of time. In the morning, he woke up at 6 am. He quickly logged out and went to get something to eat.

Surprisingly, Hannah was up this early as well.
