Wen Yan most hates situations where he can't see where the enemy is or doesn't know who the enemy is.
In such cases, he can only respond to each move or force his way through.
He also wants to learn more, read more books, so that when faced with situations, even if he doesn't know the specifics, he can have a strategy.
Ideally, he wants to be like the Fourth Great-uncle Master, a knowledgeable bigshot who knows where to find information even if he doesn't know something.
But after seeing others easily handle unfamiliar situations, finding relevant information effortlessly, Wen Yan realized that just relying on effort alone, it's unlikely he'd catch up to them in a short time.
Those people have talent, they are willing to study and practice diligently, and they actively think about the connections between various things, persisting for decades. How could he, someone who started later, catch up with them quickly?
