Chapter 186 Chapter 186 - Breathing Technique
If it was actually what was written on this piece of paper. Aiden probably wouldn't need to return to this place soon, as he would have already learned a technique about Qi.
Still, with the promise he had made at the end, there probably wouldn't be much problem returning in a while as Aiden had made to be as vague exactly for situations like this.
[Breathing Technique]
[Creator: Unknown]
[World: Cultivation]
[Description: A technique to manipulate the Qi in your body, when having a perfect understanding of the technique, all of your body will be empowered indefinitely. The regenerative properties of your body will also increase at a ridiculous rate.]
Aiden read all of this but he couldn't but notice that there was no method on how to learn that technique was he supposed to guess, what the fuck was this bullshit?
"Um, system can I learn that technique?" asked Aiden, remembering the system's earlier answer.
He knew that he could do many things simply by asking the system which is why he requested such a thing.
Then, the usual beeping sound resounded inside his mind.
*BEEP*
[You now have access to all the information needed to learn about the Breathing Technique.]
Then, some sort of memory entered his head, it seemed to be just like back then when he had learned about how to use Qi, it seemed to be a video of the same old man.
Aiden couldn't help but wonder who was that man that was doing all those videos.
How did the system have access to all those videos?
Aiden realized quickly that he would never be able to find an answer to such a question, so he dismissed it quickly.
Then, he decided that learning that technique right now didn't have much importance, so he simply delayed it. He would learn it later and he wouldn't have much impact on his power.
After deciding that, he started to look around himself wanting to see if he had missed anything. But, it seemed that he had gotten all of his rewards.
He had to admit that he was quite impressed with everything that he had gathered simply by finishing this trial.
"Then, I guess it's time for me to leave this room," muttered Aiden, as he could feel himself disappearing from this white room of complete emptiness.
A moment later, he was back in the middle of the arena once again with his three skill books in his hand.

While Aiden was in the Reward Room, Melinda didn't have any sort of vision for Aiden anymore. It seemed that seeing was what happening in the waiting room or the reward room wasn't something that the system had allowed when they had made her deal.
However, even without seeing what was happening, she knew one thing. Even if Aiden received the smallest of rewards possible, it didn't matter because the number of experience points that he had gathered in the trial was simply phenomenal.
In fact, she had never seen such a thing before, she didn't know exactly how many times he had levelled up but she wouldn't be surprised if it was more than five times at least.
And this was being pessimistic, she knew that there were great chances that it would be higher than five, in fact, she was sure of it.
However, she wasn't worrying about what rewards Aiden had gotten right now.
She worried about what was happening between both Lucius and the Nightshade Patriarch as she knew that the Nightshade Patriarch was cruel and wouldn't hesitate to act however he may seem fit toward The Reaper if he were to learn that it was indeed him which had done such a thing to Aiden.
She didn't if Lucius knew that it was really the Reaper who had fought against Aiden in the trial but she could only hope that it wasn't the case, or else she would have to step in and it wasn't something that she wanted to do.
However, if she had to, then she wouldn't hesitate to as she had seen all of the potential that Aiden possessed, there was no doubt in her mind that The Reaper would be the future when talking all the young awakened of this tournament.
She couldn't think of anyone surpassing him, now that he had access to that energy that all cultivators called Qi.
An energy which was highly dangerous for all those around, but beneficial for the person who had it.
Then, as she kept thinking about all of that, she noticed that it had been a while since The Reaper's challenge had ended and that he was still in his reward room. Well, probably in it, as she had no information about where he was whatsoever.
But, at one point, as minutes started passing by, she couldn't help but think that something happened to him inside the trial, or the reward room or something like that.
'Did the system do something against him?' thought Melinda as she knew that such had happened in the past on numerous occasions.
However, she dismissed those thoughts as there was no way that the system would pay attention to someone on his third trial. The Reaper was special, but not that special.
"What do you think is going to win now that everyone has finished their trial?" asked Thorin who was on the right of Melinda.
Melinda hearing that question didn't hesitate for a single moment as there was already a clear victor, and that victor was The Reaper as there was no way that someone had performed better than him.
Melinda had watched him from start to finish, even dismissing her own family members as she knew that they didn't have the potential to win this competition.
"The Reaper," replied Melinda, without losing any time as she knew that this was going to be the case.
"The Reaper? Are you sure, was his performance really that good?" questioned Thorin back, as he hadn't paid too much attention to The Reaper as he always switched trials watching pretty much all twelve participants.
