Elemental Support was why Amon had Wu Lang, who had an element weak against metal, in a team against Hu Ti. His purpose in the team was not to fight Hu Ti but to support Yang Li.
While almost every cultivator knew about elemental strengths and weaknesses, many common cultivators like Dao Se were oblivious to elemental supports. The students of the Royal Academy were, of course, taught about this topic in the theory class.
Each element could support another element. Wood supported fire, fire supported earth, earth supported metal, metal supported water, and water supported wood.
