“Condensing spiritual energy into pearls, gathering pearls into water, turning into water and taking shape. The forms are ever-changing and the abilities developed by the Way of Water Control can be said to be countless.”

“For example, in ancient books, as long as there’s enough spiritual energy mobilized, it’s not impossible.”

“There’s a master in Jiangnan City who has reached the Exceptional Level in controlling water. The last time the Fangzheng Street neighborhood caught fire, it was him who turned the tide and put out the fire that burned half of the building.”

“He’s much taller than ordinary water-type espers who spray small water pillars.”

“That move of his is extremely powerful. Most people have to practice for a long time if they want to reach his level.”

“Whether it’s talent or hard work, both are indispensable.”

“Learn to make water vapor dolls from Otaku Wu?”

At this moment, someone in the seat suddenly shouted.

As this voice sounded, the originally quiet meeting room was filled with discussion. Then, the entire venue became noisy.

“We can’t learn the Water Releases Great Waterfall Technique of Otaku Wu.”

“That’s right, that’s right. Every time I use this ability, I have to shout the name of the move. It’s too shameful.”

“Only Otaku Wu would shout it without hesitation.”

“He’s a geek and lives in his imagination. However, his Water Releases Great Waterfall Technique is quite powerful. I heard that it’s an ability from an anime called Copy. It’s just too shameful to shout its name.”

“What’s so amazing about it? The building that caught fire was originally fine. As long as the fire department arrived, it wouldn’t take long for the fire to be extinguished. However, when Otaku Wu arrived, he flattened the building. If it weren’t for Taoist Master Cheng Yifan paying for the damage, that poor Otaku Wu wouldn’t have been able to repay it in his lifetime.”

“But he’s still very powerful. Can you use such a powerful superpower?”

“Sigh, I really don’t know how he cultivated it. Although the name of the tactic is a little stupid, its power still makes me yearn for it.”

“It’s simple, didn’t I say before? Make a water vapor doll. Otaku Wu likes to make water vapor dolls the most. Anyone who knows him will know. He said that he wants to make a doll of Utaha or Yukino. The name is so difficult to remember, but anyways, it’s a character from an anime.”

“It’s not easy to make a water vapor doll. You have to take into account details, texture, accessories, decorations, and so on. It’s simple to condense a water ball, you just have to keep stuffing water in. However, this one is countless times more complicated…”

“Oh, no wonder. No wonder.”

Cheng Yifan was a little unhappy to hear the commotion in the hall, but he endured it. He turned around and looked at the corner of the meeting room. What he saw angered him so much that even his beard trembled.

In the remote corner, a young man in a migrant tank top and black shorts was fishing with his head lowered. A trace of saliva was dripping down the corner of his slightly open mouth.

“Wu Daxiong, Wu Daxiong!!”

Did this guy stay up all night watching that stupid anime again? He had to think of a way to discipline him.

“Ah! Is the meeting over? I’ll be leaving then.”

The person who was woken up did not know what was going on and thought that the meeting was over.

He stood up, wiped his mouth, and tried to walk out.

“Eh? Where are we going? Come here.”

“As a water-element master in our Jiangnan City, tell everyone how you cultivate every day.”

It was true that Wu Daxiong was an otaku, but it did not mean that he did not have any good points to learn from. Although in Cheng Yifan’s opinion, this guy was silly and a little childish, he would be considered a wise man in ancient times.

He focused all his energy on cultivation and was indifferent to other things.

He did not rely on his ability to bully others and instead treated others warmly. It was also because of this that he could cultivate his water control to the Exceptional Level.

It was not an exaggeration.

Ever since the zenith tilt and the recovery of spiritual energy, espers had appeared endlessly. In order to better manage them and also to give them a clear understanding of their abilities, the country had specially made a hierarchy.

There were 10 levels: beginner, rookie, intermediate, advanced, proficient, exceptional, godlike skills, perfection, invincible, and unparalleled.

At the Exceptional Level, Wu Daxiong could be considered an expert. Even if he entered the management body of the National Superpower Administration, he would still start off as a major.

Of course, it was not as if the National Superpower Administration had never extended an olive branch to him, but they were all blocked by Cheng Yifan.

What a joke. Wu Daxiong was someone who was going to inherit his mantle. How could he let them take him away?

“Ah? Explain my cultivation insights? Oh, oh, okay.”

Without a hint of fear, Wu Daxiong walked to the podium and yawned twice before explaining how he had developed new superpowers according to an anime ‘XX Ninja’. At the same time, he expressed his opinion and insights on how to use the water control technique to simulate a human form.

As Wu Daxiong did not mind others’ opinions at all and was more willing to share some secrets about others’ cultivation, everyone was still willing to listen.

After all, his Water Releases Great Waterfall Technique could push a seven-story building and was considered extraordinary.

After Wu Daxiong went on stage to explain, the entire meeting officially entered a state of focus. Those who had just started or had cultivated for a while raised their doubts.

Wu Daxiong also answered them one by one on stage. Wasn’t participating in this meeting to increase the old fellow’s popularity?

When Cheng Yifan talked about cultivation, his complicated words were difficult for many people to understand. On the other hand, Wu Daxiong was simple and relaxed. Although it was obvious he was an otaku, in comparison, his words were still simpler and easier to understand.

Time passed quickly and the research discussion was ending soon.

When Wu Daxiong finished answering the last question, a capable figure in military uniform walked up.

“I’m the captain of the superpower team in the National Superpower Administration’s southern region. The recruitment plan for this time has been postponed.”

“The higher-ups have sent an order. A mutant from the Xiangxi area has defected. He killed two teammates from the same team and refined them into zombies.”

“We’ve obtained information that this defector has already entered the territory of Jiangnan City. It’s even very likely that he has already entered Jiangnan City.”

“I hope the espers present will report to us as soon as they discover his tracks.”

“His name is Xi Hongshi. Level: Proficient. Ability: Corpse Herding.”

“He’s the most outstanding corpse herder in the Xiangxi area. Not only does he know how to herd corpses, but he also knows how to train them. Two of our teammates have already been refined into iron-armored corpses by him. If you encounter him, you must protect yourselves first. Don’t act rashly and inform us in time.”
