Negative

Alex's original time was 3 hours, 22 minutes, and 33 seconds. That was the worst time out of everyone yet, but that was the raw time. He still needed to get it reduced. 

So, he slowly walked to the staff. Along the way, he could see Yang Ma's terrible smirk. He rejoiced about the fact that Alex got so much less score. 

'God, he really is horrible,' Alex thought. He reached the staff and pulled out a stack of papers from his robes. In his stack, there were at least 50 talismans. 

He dropped it on the staff's table and the staff started to calculate. As the staff was calculating, Alex reached back into his robe and pulled out another stack of the talismans. 

He placed it on the staff's desk with a little sound. 

The first 50 weren't surprising to anyone. The last 4 of the 5 people had around that amount. However, Alex had just nearly doubled that.

"What the— how does he have so much?" the participants started questioning.
