Capítulo 11: Chapter 5 Yin and Yang Balance (Part 2)_1
Reluctantly putting down the Seawave Cup, if Ji Dong wasn't present, Yang Bingtian would've been tempted to lick the cup clean.
"Perfection. You're right, the flavor is not to be wasted. Having this experience once a day would be satisfying enough." He struggled to bring himself out of that intoxicating sensation. When he looked at Ji Dong again, his wrinkled face was lit up with a brilliant smile.
"Didn't you say that you'd help me test my Yin-Yang Property?" Ji Dong reminded him.
"Ah, I got so carried away, I almost forgot." Yang Bingtian gave an embarrassed chuckle, flicked his wrist, and a glint passed over a red gemstone bracelet he wore. A transparent slender rod materialized in his hand.
The rod was about a foot long, seemingly made from crystal. It was inscribed with something resembling a scale. At both ends were red and blue marbles.
"Come, hold the blue marble with your left hand and the red with your right. Now, relax." Yang Bingtian passed the Crystal Stick to Ji Dong, holding at its center.
Ji Dong did exactly as instructed. Yang Bingtian put his hand on Ji Dong's forehead. A surge of heat instantly flowed from Yang Bingtian's hand into Ji Dong, rushing through each corner of his body. The soothing warmth it brought was indescribably pleasant, and changes started to appear in the Crystal Stick held by his hands.
Blue spread from the marble clutched in the left hand while red spread from the right, marching towards the center of the Crystal Stick. Upon seeing the even spread of both colors, Yang Bingtian frowned.
Soon, the two colors gradually merged towards the center, gathering right at the middle mark.
"This can't be happening." Yang Bingtian bent over, peering at the center of the Crystal Stick. His gaze was completely stunned, gawking at the point where the two colors met.
Ji Dong handed the Crystal Stick back to him. "If you want to praise me for being a genius, I don't mind." He teased, taking advantage of the rare sight of Yang Bingtian exhibiting such surprise.
"Genius? You are indeed one! But a born genius waste. I've taught many students in my teaching career, yet I have never come across someone as hopeless as you."
"What did you say?" Ji Dong was taken aback. Although his body was weaker, he didn't believe that he was worthless.
Yang Bingtian pointed to the Crystal Stick. "Look at this, you're indeed a Fire attribute, and this is a Fire attribute detection device. The blue represents Yin Fire, and the red represents Yang Fire. If you were called a genius, it wouldn't be wrong. Yin and Yang balance. I've lived over sixty years and have never come across someone whose Yin-Yang Property is completely balanced."
"What's wrong with Yin and Yang balance? Isn't a balanced Yin and Yang good for the body?" Ji Dong asked, confused.
Yang Bingtian gave a wry smile. "Right, for normal people, a balanced Yin and Yang body symbolizes longevity, one in a million. But for us, Yin-Yang Magicians, balanced Yin and Yang is rarer than Pure Yin or Pure Yang bodies. Remember, I have told you to choose your cultivation path according to your Yin-Yang Property. Normally, people's Yin-Yang Property is a 60-40 split, leaning either towards Yin or Yang. An individual with a 60-40 split is not accepted into our ranks. The slight difference in Yin and Yang makes it hard to cultivate the Yin Crown or Yang Crown, and even if cultivation is achieved, future progress would be limited. A minimum 30-70 Yin-Yang split is required to have a 30% chance of cultivating the Yin-Yang Crown. For instance, my property is the uncommon 20-80 Yin-Yang. The Yang Property occupies 80%, leading to my accomplishments today after continuous cultivation."
Ji Dong looked a bit dazed. "So, you're saying that Pure Yin and Pure Yang bodies have the best effects when cultivating as a Yin-Yang Magician?"
Yang Bingtian shook his head, "No, as Pure Yin and Pure Yang bodies are too extreme, they usually don't live past twenty years old and thus are not suitable for cultivation. Unless the individuals are a man and a woman respectively possessing Pure Yin and Pure Yang bodies, undergoing Yin and Yang adjustment before turning twenty, then there is a chance for cultivation. But the two persons must never part, or they will risk sudden death at any time. Therefore, the best physique for cultivating as a Yin-Yang Magician should be 10-90, leaning heavily towards one side. That's what we call a prodigious talent in the Yin-Yang Magic World."
Ji Dong breathed in slowly, exhaling gradually. "So, can you tell me how I should choose if I want to cultivate as a Yin-Yang Magician?"
A wrinkle on Yang Bingtian's face twitched, "It's difficult. Because you possess Innate Yin-Yang Balance, you cannot break this balance. So, if you want to cultivate as a Yin-Yang Magician, you need to cultivate both Bing-Ding Dual Fire System. Maintain Yin and Yang balance at all times. Although I would love to keep drinking the cocktails you make, I can't deceive you. People with a Yin-Yang 30-70 split cultivate twice as fast as those with a 60-40 split; those with a 20-80 split cultivate three times as fast as the 30-70 split, and so on. People with a Yin-Yang 10-90 split cultivate eight times faster than a 60-40 split. But in your case, the 50-50 split makes you only one sixteenth as fast as the 10-90 split for a single attribute and one thirty-second for dual attributes. Under these circumstances, you have almost no chance to cultivate the Yin-Yang Crown. And if a Yin-Yang Magician has not cultivated it before they turn eighteen, they will never do so in their lifetime."
"Thank you for telling me all these." Ji Dong looked at Yang Bingtian, his eyes filled with respect for the first time. Yang Bingtian was obviously addicted to his cocktails, but he didn't deceive him, truly a great teacher.
Yang Bingtian patted Ji Dong gently on the shoulder. "Actually, being a bartender is not a bad profession. Even if you don't want to make drinks for ordinary people, I could still introduce you to the Bartender Guild. Given your skills, I'm sure you would shine in the bartending field."
Ji Dong shook his head. "Thank you for your kindness, but I still want to give it a try."
"You mean?" Yang Bingtian's eyes widened in surprise. However, he saw stubborn determination in Ji Dong's excited eyes, akin to unyielding rocks.
"I want to give it a shot, to become a Yin-Yang Magician. If my talent is lacking, then I will put in thirty-two times the effort." Coming to such a marvelous world, why not live it in a different way? Even if he failed, what could he possibly lose?
