Compared to the morning, the afternoon rewards were a little lacking—just an ordinary Water Release and Earth Release.
Still, as a reward for four hours of teaching, Mu Yue felt it was pretty good.
At night, Mu Yue continued leading Shisui and Might Guy in Breathing Technique training.
None of the three had yet found the sensation of Breathing; they were still stuck on the most basic breathing exercises.
