Invincibility Begins with Mastery of Fist Techniques-Chapter 214 - 207: Suddenly

Environments can influence people, and people can likewise influence their environments.

The Dao of feng shui cannot be generalized.

When people with the same beliefs and traits gather in one place, their collective magnetic field can influence the environment. Even a barren wasteland can be transformed into a blessed paradise.

This is the principle of "man can conquer nature."

Since ancient times, there have never been that many naturally auspicious places. It is simply the concentration of human effort and belief that can move mountains and fill seas.

Within feng shui, humanity is the most important element.

The Chief Commissioner gathered the ley lines of the National Fortune, and the old headmaster gathered the fortune of those who pursue and practice the Martial Dao. These examples gave Zhou Yuanjue a great deal of inspiration.

Although he had no intention of walking that path himself—bearing a magnetic field of fortune within his own body—it didn't stop him from seeking to understand it.

By understanding one thing, you can understand many. Perhaps this would lead to new insights.

So, he began to view the world from a different angle and saw many things he hadn't before.

In the city, shopping malls teemed with all kinds of desires, creating a chaotic, multicolored magnetic field. Hospitals, where illness and the partings of life and death converged, were gloomy and oppressive, yet also filled with hope; one could see faint glimmers of light mixed within a gray-black field. And schools, full of bright young students, pulsed with vigorous energy and relatively pure thoughts, manifesting as a vast expanse of pure cyan.

The human eye has its limits. What it sees is not necessarily the truth. From a different perspective, one might see the truths hidden in the shadows.

This was precisely what Zhou Yuanjue was doing now. And in this process of observation and discovery, many new understandings about humanity and the world welled up within him.

Through this mental tempering, he gained a deeper understanding of the relationship between individual consciousness and the natural world.

Although his power didn't increase in a tangible way, his control over magnetic fields became much more deft and intuitive.

Zhou Yuanjue and Ning Muqing walked toward the area suffused with cyan energy. Soon, they arrived before the imposing gates of a university.

Songyang University.

Zhou Yuanjue saw the two large, calligraphic words written above the gate.

Songyang University seemed especially lively today. Young, fashionably dressed students were everywhere, and it looked like some sort of large-scale event was underway.

Ning Muqing asked a passing girl, who looked to be a new student, and learned that Songyang University was holding its freshman club fair. All the various clubs were set up around campus to showcase themselves and recruit new members.

It was, indeed, the time of year when freshmen had just arrived on campus.

A nostalgic look appeared in Zhou Yuanjue's eyes, as if he were back in his days as a lecturer at Wuhai University.

Though only a few months had passed, for him, it felt as though his entire life had been turned upside down.

"Let's go."

Zhou Yuanjue started walking, stepping onto the long-unfamiliar grounds of a university campus while simultaneously perceiving the changes in the magnetic field.

Ning Muqing followed closely behind him.

One was tall and broad-shouldered, with a young, handsome face; the other had delicate features and a near-perfect figure. The pair naturally attracted a great deal of attention upon entering the campus. Some club members even mistook them for freshmen, scrambling to hand them flyers and recruit them.

A handsome man and a beautiful woman are a valuable commodity anywhere.

However, Ning Muqing dutifully fended them all off. Not a single person managed to get close to Zhou Yuanjue.

At that same moment, in another corner of the campus.

The recruitment booth for the Hei Pingguo Photography Club.

The recruitment tent had been meticulously designed by the club members. It displayed numerous photographs and, in addition, had several screens playing short videos produced by the Hei Pingguo Club, causing many freshmen to stop and watch. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

At that moment, Jiang Yun, an important club officer who had been roped into helping at the booth, found himself "under siege" by a crowd.

"Senior Jiang, is that video you posted real? You really didn't add any special effects?!"

"The Martial Arts Realm is real? Looking at the footage you shot, I can hardly believe it. Are there really things like 'Supreme Divine Skills' in this world?"

"Old Jiang, next time you get access to something like that, you have to bring me along! Your social media account gained over a hundred thousand followers from one video. You can't forget your bros when you strike gold like that."

"..."

Jiang Yun's video had shot to the top of the trending charts, making his social media account a minor sensation. Since they were all in the same club, everyone knew he was the one running it.

The barrage of voices was giving Jiang Yun a massive headache. He hurriedly grabbed a stack of flyers from the table and yelled, "I'm going to go hand these out!"

Then he pushed through the classmates swarming around him and rushed out of the recruitment tent. The world instantly fell quiet, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

PAT!

Just then, a hand patted his shoulder. He turned to see a female classmate in casual clothes, with long, wavy hair and the air of a campus goddess, holding a stack of flyers and smiling at him.

"Senior Sister Xu..."

Jiang Yun's mouth fell open. This was their club president, an academic star in their media studies department. Now in her third year, she had already won a national award for a short film she directed herself.

"Let's go together."

Senior Sister Xu said to Jiang Yun with a grin.

Jiang Yun nodded. The two of them took their flyers and headed toward a denser part of the crowd.

"That video was real, wasn't it?"

Senior Sister Xu asked suddenly.

"It was."

Jiang Yun said as he handed out flyers.

"I knew it. No wonder I spent ages analyzing it and couldn't find a single trace of editing."

Senior Sister Xu nodded.

"So, that means everything in the video was real?"

A sharp glint flashed in Senior Sister Xu's eyes.

"Absolutely. I can guarantee it. You're interested in this stuff too, Senior Sister?"

Jiang Yun nodded, but before he could finish speaking, he froze in place.

"Of course! I used to dream of being a sword-wielding heroine! Oh, right, can you tell me more details about that video?"

Senior Sister Xu said with a grin, but she received no reply.

Because amidst the bustling crowd, Jiang Yun's gaze had locked onto a face that had left an indelible impression on him.

'The Martial Arts Myth...'

'What is *he* doing here at Songyang University?!'

He felt a surge of excitement, mixed with a hint of fear. 'For a figure like that to show up at Songyang University... something isn't about to happen, is it?'

"What's wrong?"

Senior Sister Xu asked, looking at him strangely.

"It's nothing."

Jiang Yun shook his head. 'Maybe a person like that is just wandering around and happened to end up at Songyang University,' he thought. 'I'm probably overthinking it. This is an era of peace. What could possibly happen in broad daylight, in front of all these people? Besides, my luck can't be *that* bad.'

Just then, however, he saw that unforgettable figure suddenly stop in his tracks.

"Hm?"

Zhou Yuanjue had been strolling along, personally experiencing the unique magnetic field created by the convergence of the students' wills, when he suddenly sensed an anomaly.

The cyan magnetic field that permeated the campus suddenly began to change.

To his Northwest, a deep black magnetic field began to spread through the cyan.

'Fear?'

'Why would there be such a strong magnetic field of fear on a university campus?'

But in the next moment, another abnormal color spread through the cyan field from the Southeast: a pale, reddish-pink.

'Joy?'

At the same time, more colors suddenly flooded his senses.

Crimson for anger; gray for sorrow; blue for anxiety...

The seven human emotions, seven different colors, abruptly eroded the cyan magnetic field formed by the collective will of the students, surrounding Zhou Yuanjue completely.

"Evacuate everyone in the vicinity. Immediately."

Zhou Yuanjue narrowed his eyes. A chilling sense of crisis washed over him.
