Ming Aolian wasn't the only one who wanted to know more. Lin Mu and the others at the table were the same.

Dugu Shanhe challenged Childe Wildfire, of course. They had a short spar of three moves. Each would take three moves from the other, and if they couldn't take it, they would lose." Lu Xu explained. "They tossed a coin and Dugu Shan won it. But despite that he went first, taking the disadvantage. He withstood all attacks from Childe Wildfire, sustaining a few injuries."

"Isn't that bad? Why would he pick the disadvantage after winning the toss?" Qian Wen couldn't understand.

"Probably to make his victory unquestionable." Lin Mu spoke, guessing the man's reasoning.

"Indeed." Lu Xu nodded his head. "When it was Childe Wildfire's turn to take the attacks, he was knocked out in just a single attack!"

"W-what!?" Ming Dandan was stunned. "How's that possible? Isn't Childe Wildfire at the Fifth Tribulation Stage of the Immortal realm too?" she was doubtful.

"He is indeed. But Dugu Shanhe's skill was too strong… and mysterious. No one understood what he did, but a mere wave of his hand was all that was needed for Childe Wildfire to faint." Lu Xu said with a serious expression.

"Just a wave of his hand? What did he slap him unconscious?" Qian Wen chuckled.

"No… he didn't even touch him." Lu Xu said, much to everyone's surprise.

"What? No contact made?" They were stunned.

"A hypnotic skill?" Lin Mu threw out a guess.

"We don't know. People have been guessing since last week, but no one has been able to figure it out." Lu Xu stated. "But it was enough to get Dugu Shanhe sponsored by the Fourth Minister." He added.

Wen was astounded. "That man rarely sets any bets like
