Imperial Capital University’s main sports field.
The sports field is almost as big as two football fields, and the surrounding track is over a kilometer long!
At this moment, neatly aligned rectangular formations are arranged in an orderly manner on the sports field.
"Military training officially begins!"
With the command of the senior instructor standing in the middle of the field, the military training for new students at Imperial Capital University officially started.
In an instant, commands and slogans rang out one after another!
The atmosphere was enthusiastic!
Two hours later, it was time for a break and adjustment for everyone.
The sun was blazing, and the temperature was unbearably high. Even the instructors were feeling parched.
"Everyone, gather here!"
At this time, the instructor for the physics major stood in a shaded area and ordered the new physics students.
The freshmen’s eyes lit up at the sight, and they ran to the shaded area, praising the instructor as a good person.
Just as they were starting to feel somewhat refreshed...
They gradually noticed...
That many other majors had started their talent showcases in their rest areas!
"Just because you are so beautiful!"
"Cilantro, cilantro, I just love eating cilantro!"
Singing, dancing, rap—there’s everything!
"We can’t be outdone!"
The instructor understood that the annual talent competition for new students had arrived. This segment is not mandatory, but it naturally occurs every year.
He glanced around and asked, "Does anyone have any talents? Hurry up and show off to let the new students from other majors see the spirit of our major! Plus, if your performance is good, you might just get priority in choosing a partner!"
The physics students looked at each other, and eventually, all their eyes unconsciously settled on Lin Beichen.
They didn’t know if Lin Beichen had any talents, but they just wanted to see!
Why is everyone looking at me?
The instructor saw this and laughed. This is what everyone wanted!
So he said to Lin Beichen, "What’s your name? Get up here and show us a talent!"
"Reporting, instructor, my name is Lin Beichen."
Lin Beichen stood up and said innocently, "But I don’t have any talents."
Before the instructor could say anything,
The physics students, and even students from neighboring majors who saw Lin Beichen stand up, started to jeer.
The instructor was a bit surprised to see Lin Beichen’s popularity and thought that this talent show should definitely feature him!
Seeing this, Lin Beichen knew he couldn’t escape.
But what talent should he perform?
He really didn’t have any talents...
Except for his good grades...
And the ability to emit electricity from his palm!
Performing palm electricity?
Wouldn’t he be immediately taken away by the government for research?
Wait, electricity...?
He suddenly thought of something and immediately nodded, agreeing, "Alright, I’ll perform a talent for everyone and draw a talisman to seek rain!"
In the scientifically oriented campus of Imperial Capital University, performing something with a mystic perspective?
It’s certainly unique!
However, they didn’t think much of it, considering the rain-seeking diagram as similar to the Eight Trigrams Diagram, purely symbolic and without any real effect.
Before they could say anything,
Lin Beichen had already picked up a tree branch and began drawing in the sandpit next to the shaded area.
Although he had seen talismans online and in the Celestial Master’s Mansion’s Imperial Decree Pavilion and remembered their appearances, he didn’t have any artistic skills.
The drawing came out...
It could be compared to a chick pecking for rice, awkward and crooked, almost like ghostly scribbles!
But Lin Beichen didn’t care, just drawing it was good enough—it was all for show anyway.
He nodded in satisfaction and said, "Alright, talent showcase complete!"
They couldn’t bear to look.
If they hadn’t seen him drawing by hand, they’d think it was drawn with his feet!
The top scorer in the national college entrance exam wasn’t good at drawing!
But it seemed none of them could draw talismans either, considering no one had drawn them before.
Everybody was awkwardly stuck between praising and criticizing, making the scene a bit uncomfortable.
Luckily, the assembly whistle blew in time, and the instructor salvaged the situation.
"Alright, alright, continue with the military training."
Military training resumed!
But shortly after, no one noticed... NovelHub.Côm-cσ๓
What was once a clear sky suddenly had clouds drifting in from nowhere, blocking the blazing sun and casting shadows.
At this moment, no one realized the problem, they just felt it was less hot and even slightly cool.
However, it didn’t take long for a muffled thunder to suddenly explode.
As the rumbles of thunder continued, raindrops the size of beans started falling rapidly.
When they realized it, the first thing that came to mind was Lin Beichen’s rain-seeking talisman.
Could it really be raining now because of that eye-sore drawing?
Was that really a rain-seeking talisman that could summon rain?
What kind of mysticism is this!
As they were still bewildered and pondering,
The head instructor ordered a temporary break to avoid the rain.
At this moment, they instinctively shifted their gaze to Lin Beichen.
Not just Lin Beichen, but his roommates had already anticipated it, with umbrellas up, chatting leisurely.
Han Yuan looked at Lin Beichen, clicking his tongue, "Impressive, Beichen, who knew you had the skill to summon rain?"
His tone was teasing, clearly not believing that Lin Beichen could actually summon rain, just joking.
After saying that, he slung his arm around Lin Beichen’s shoulder, speaking mysteriously, "How did you know it would rain today? Teach your buddies, this would definitely work in wooing girls!"
Liang Dong nodded in admiration, "Beichen, you’re incredible. More accurate than the weather forecast, it really rained. Did you study meteorology? How did you predict it?"
As Lin Beichen was pondering how to get himself out of this,
Classmates swarmed over.
"Lin Beichen, is that really a rain-seeking talisman? Does mysticism really work?"
"I saw the weather forecast for the week, no rain, but you drew the talisman and it rained. Amazing, can you really summon rain?"
"A genius is a genius, even in mysticism."
Left and right, it seemed like they had a hundred questions for Lin Beichen.
Fortunately, Lin Beichen and his roommates were used to big crowds, like when the whole dormitory came to room 207 to see Lin Beichen at the beginning.
They were accustomed to helping Lin Beichen handle such matters.
"You all let this guy fool you, he’s knowledgeable in meteorology, knew it would rain today and told us to bring umbrellas. Look, we’re all holding umbrellas! Who else would bring an umbrella on a sunny day?"
As the spokesperson for room 207, Han Yuan explained to everyone, and seeing the umbrellas, the classmates understood, looking at Lin Beichen with admiration.
Comparing with others can be infuriating!
He’s proficient in meteorology and...
Can use it to enliven the atmosphere!
True active learning and application!
Not studying foolishly at all.
He deserves to be the full-score champion of the college entrance exam!
The classmates couldn’t help but praise him. Their distractions meant no one asked how he used meteorology to predict the rain.
The thunderstorm came suddenly and left quickly.
Military training resumed!
However, the thunderstorm had cooled down the scorching sun.
The new students completed their day of training in the cool weather.
As the head instructor announced dismissal,
Lin Beichen was the first to run off, looking for a place to study thunder enhancement.
And not just today...
During the rest of the military training...
Every day, as soon as the training ended, he was always the first to dash off!
He was the focal point among new students.
Countless eyes were secretly watching him.
This behavior of his naturally attracted a lot of curiosity, and after a while, a big question mark formed in their minds—
What was he rushing off to do every day?
