Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System

Chapter 267: Chapter 151: Fist Can Break Streams, Rain Doesn’t Wet Clothes! Truly Shocking!_4

After completing his form, he listened to the System’s notification: ”Vital Energy Projection—Harming from a Distance progress updated.”

Feeling the Vital Energy still lingering in his body, Zhang Beixing felt somewhat helpless.

Vital Energy Projection was excellent, but it had one significant drawback: once released, it couldn’t be retracted until all of Zhang Beixing’s internal Vital Energy was depleted.

It’s a finishing move. Best not to use it unless absolutely necessary, because once activated, it can’t be stopped.

Of course, this might be because I’ve only just mastered Vital Energy Projection and I’m not yet skilled with it.

There’s also a good chance it’s related to that strange phenomenon of Vital Energy seeping from all over my body.

Feeling the Vital Energy draining away inside him, Zhang Beixing murmured to himself, ”This Vital Energy Projection probably won’t last much longer. Give it about ten more minutes, and it should dissipate.”

While he was contemplating his own unusual condition, Lin Siqi, having seen Zhang Beixing finish his martial arts training, couldn’t contain her curiosity and bewilderment any longer and walked over.

”Lao Zhang, what is this—” Lin Siqi began to speak, but before she could continue, PITTER-PATTER. Raindrops struck her delicate face.

She looked up. At some point, dark clouds had enveloped the sky, blanketing both Yiling City and West Yin Mountain. A soft drizzle began to fall.

”Damn it, it’s raining! How are we supposed to watch the sunrise now?” Zheng Jituo’s dismayed cry came from the distant camp, his voice tinged with disappointment.

He had planned everything meticulously but hadn’t accounted for the weather. It was raining. This meant their entire effort—staying up all night and climbing the mountain to see the sunrise—was in vain.

”Forget it, forget it! If we can’t see the sunrise today, we’ll see it tomorrow. Being able to watch the rain and sleep in a tent surrounded by such beautiful scenery isn’t a bad experience either!” someone replied to Zheng Jituo, quite philosophically.

Hearing this, the other students chimed in, agreeing he had a point.

Seeing that no one else objected, Zheng Jituo realized it would be impolite to complain further and didn’t dwell on the missed sunrise.

However, when he looked around and didn’t see Jin Linyu, he couldn’t help but ask, ”Where’s Lao Jin? Where did that guy run off to?”

”Oh, him? He left after setting up his tent. Said he was going to look for wild vegetables and fruits,” someone answered.

”I see.”

Zheng Jituo nodded in understanding and dismissed it from his mind. He was about to call Zhang Beixing and Lin Siqi, who had gone to the waterfall for martial arts training, to come back. However, before he could even speak, Zheng Jituo caught sight of Zhang Beixing. He froze, an incredulous look spreading across his chubby face.

Then he exclaimed, ”Damn! What’s going on? Lao Zhang, why aren’t you getting wet from the rain?”

”Huh?”

As soon as Zheng Jituo spoke, Zhang Beixing hadn’t yet reacted, but the students back at the camp let out a collective gasp.

They were just about to accuse Zheng Jituo of talking nonsense when their peripheral vision caught Zhang Beixing by the waterfall. They were instantly dumbfounded, every single one of them wearing a bewildered expression.

Perhaps it was hard to see clearly if one was standing right next to Zhang Beixing, but from their distance, they could see the situation around him perfectly.

Zhang Beixing stood in the gentle rain, yet it was as if he were from another world. A sort of vacuum seemed to surround him; the raindrops fell but couldn’t touch him in the slightest!

The rain didn’t wet his clothes!

”Damn! Is Lao Zhang really not getting wet?”

”No, no, no, it’s not that he’s not getting wet—the rain is *avoiding* Lao Zhang! Lao Zhang, are you wearing some kind of protective shield?”

”That’s not quite right either... It should be... It should be... Ah, forget it! Who cares what it is? All I know is Lao Zhang is awesome, and that’s all that matters!”

”I must be seeing things from exhaustion! I’m actually watching my classmate stand in the rain wielding some kind of legendary divine power!”

”Jin Linyu hasn’t even brought back any mushrooms yet! I haven’t eaten anything, so why am I starting to hallucinate? No, no, I need to get some sleep!”

”I knew Lao Zhang practiced martial arts and was strong and powerful, but I never expected you to be *this* incredible, Lao Zhang!”

”He’s so cool! I remember Beixing has been single for three months since his breakup and hasn’t found a girlfriend yet, right? I think I might have a chance!”

”Dream on! Haven’t you seen Siqi sticking to Beixing ever since she arrived, never leaving his side? What makes you think you have a chance?”

”Look, Goddess! That’s my ’adoptive father’! My ’adoptive father’ can stand in the rain without getting wet!”

”...”

In the camp, the students watched Zhang Beixing, utterly shocked.

Dong Guoning, phone in hand, had switched to the rear camera and was frantically showing off to his ’Goddess’.

And Zhang Beixing, Dong Guoning’s good ’adoptive father’ and roommate, heard the discussions coming from the camp and raised an eyebrow.

Rain not wetting my clothes? This... indeed seems to be the case.

He had been standing in this light rain for so long without feeling even a hint of moisture.

Even just now, when he was training under the waterfall, after a full session, apart from sweat, not a single drop of water had touched him.

Does my Vital Energy have such an ingenious application?

Does this mean I won’t need to buy umbrellas or raincoats anymore?

Strolling in the rain without getting wet... that’s pretty damn cool! Was this a childhood dream of mine?
