A few days later, one morning.
At ten thirty, the sky outside the classroom gradually darkened. Before long, rain began to fall from the heavens.
The east wind whipped raindrops against the windows, producing a dense pattering sound.
The rain came down hard and fast, leaving the students anxious. It had caught them completely off guard.
"Jiang Ning, did you bring an umbrella?" Before class began, Geng Lu turned around to speak to him.
"I did." Jiang Ning had observed the sky the night before and determined that it would rain today, so he had deliberately brought a black umbrella.
In truth, he had not needed to. He only had to cast the Rain Repelling Art to spread Spiritual Energy around himself, creating an effect similar to a raincoat that would keep his clothes dry.
He had brought the umbrella only for Xue Yuantong.
Before leaving home, Xue Yuantong had declared that it definitely would not rain today because she had checked the weather forecast on her phone, stubbornly refusing to bring an umbrella.
When Geng Lu heard that Jiang Ning had brought one, she felt a little disappointed. If he had not, then she could have shared an umbrella with him.
"Are you still going home for lunch?" she asked.
"No. The rain outside is pretty heavy." Jiang Ning said. The students were still praying for the rain to stop, but from his perspective, it would probably continue until evening.
"Alright," Geng Lu said. She was also a little reluctant to go home for lunch.
By the time school let out at noon, the rain still had not stopped.
The students left the classroom and crowded into the corridor, watching the falling rain outside.
Some students were also standing in the corridor of Class 1 next door to Class
