Rows, perhaps?..
First, the difficulty of controlling elements might be related to their position in the periodic table; for example, official wizards might only be able to manage elements from the first three columns of the periodic table but not from the fourth to the seventh column.

Quite the opposite, I dare say. When entering hunting mode, cat's pupils become round to gather more light on the retina and to see clearly. When relaxing, cat's pupils are contracted, as there's no need to observe anything. Just try to observe your cat and his behavior:)
It crawled forward, its ear tips quivering, tail wagging slightly, and its vertical pupils shrinking further.

Just FYI... Isotopes are created by removing neutrons, thus, forming a new element with the same nuclear charge but different mass. All in all, it remains an interesting beginning, I'll keep reading it for now:)
'...Actually, now that I think about it, there is nuclear magic in this world... like when Razen and Diablo fought... maybe it is the process of removing the proton; in turn, that would result in nuclear isotopes, the result together with mana- then boom nuclear magic!~'

Weren't anybody able to see it before, considering her previous shenanigans? Or is it hidden by magical means and somehow I missed the description?
Reaching towards my shirt, I pulled down on it to reveal my red rose tattoo, making the woman widen her eyes in surprise.

Past! Hey, maan! Rumors say about ancient technique of Unconquerable Power Switching: Disconnect That Damn Power Plug! They say it's Immortal Grade technique, capable of switching off even the mightiest mainframes of Heavenly City! :)
After fiddling with the controls for a while and unable to shut down the computer, Yang Genshuo suddenly realized something and decided to follow the game process first.

A highly territorial creatures (like these Stalkers, I presume) tend to mark their territories with special gland secretions and/or claw marks. IMHO it would be more useful for MC to carve such gland from a Stalker corpse and mark a territory around camp. It'll signal to lesser predators to keep away from supposed Stalker... Although another Stalker may become angry at a trespasser :)
If they sensed that their kin was injured, it would imply that the enemy was dangerous. In that way, they were good at surviving.

It's quite unusual. As smell of blood may scare away herbivores, for it 's signalling of a predator's presence, for countless smaller predators and scavengers it sounds like an loud and clear invitation to a free banquet - a rare opportunity for small meat-eaters. Hence, I'll give an MC a couple of hours before he'll be knee-dip in agitated critters eager to receive their midnight snack. The only possibility of a described effect, IMHO, is that Stalkers are entirely artificial (or somehow alien) creatures.
Most importantly, their blood acted as a monster repellant during this stage of the forest.

True. There's no more self-righteous person than a retired wh***.

Well, a mixture of oxygen and hydrogen was called knallgas not without reason. Meaning, it will get KABOOM on a slightest temperature rising (500 centigrade or so). It'll be faster and better to condence ice from water vapors, but... Well, an author has a God privileges in his world:)
The steps to cast the Condensing Water Technique were very simple. He just needed to extract two elements related to water and fuse them at a ratio of two to one.

My, what a wonderfully ridiculous snake pit. Will it be more fit to MC to become a demon king after all, I wonder...
