A while later, XiaoLan found Jiang Yue and repeated everything she heard from Bing Lan.
When Jiang Yue heard the news, he said nothing and fell into thought.
Bing Lan had an ice marrow physique which was a kind of yin physique.
The reason she was engaged to Yang Xu was because master Yang had a nine suns physique which was a kind of yang physique.
These physiques complimented each other and both could benefit from double cultivation.
Unfortunately, Yang Xu's injury meant that he couldn't keep up with Bing Lan.
If the two became Taoist companions, Bing Lan's cultivation would not benefit.
Since the palace master did not want such a thankless outcome, she designed the martial contest.
She planned to find a good match and didn't expect a yang physique to appear at the last moment.
Unfortunately, the martial contest had become too big to cancel and she could only proceed.
