Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System

Chapter 177: Chapter 135: Explosive Network, Zhang Beixing’s Scheme Exposed (Three in One)_5

Zhang Beixing didn’t dawdle and immediately opened the comments section to draft his message.

Before long, a comment was posted by Zhang Beixing and pinned to the top.

Zhang Beixing: ”I might not be much, but just recently I’ve mastered Hidden Force and Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound and have entered the Terrestrial Grandmaster Realm! From now on, you can call me Grandmaster Zhang or even Master Zhang. Show a little respect in your words, and stop the incessant nonsense, spouting whatever you fancy! (No dog head emoji!)”

Then, he pinned the comment!

...

Seeing this comment that maxed out both arrogance and animosity, the netizens who had just been marveling at how awesome Zhang Beixing was were momentarily stunned.

It suddenly felt as if one was enjoying a nice meal and then got a mouthful of crap out of nowhere.

Seriously, man? We praise you a bit, and you immediately get all high and mighty, giving us attitude?

Wow, mastering Hidden Force, stepping into the Terrestrial Grandmaster Realm, and we’re supposed to call you Grandmaster Zhang?

You little punk!

”DING-DONG—”

A light chime came from Zhang Beixing’s phone.

Hearing that sound, Zhang Beixing looked down and saw that under his pinned comment, a netizen hadn’t said a word, just posted an emoticon of a Husky pointing at someone.

This emoticon was the last moment of calm before the storm.

And after this emoticon was sent, in an instant:

”DING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING!”

His phone began to chime with a rapid succession of notifications, so frequent that the usual ’dong’ sound of a complete chime was utterly lost.

Hearing this commotion, Zhang Beixing rubbed his hands. It’s finally starting, he thought.

Then, with eager anticipation, he refreshed the comment section. He found that in just a short while, the comments under his own had shot up to 20. The number was also still increasing at a rate of 1 to 3 per second.

”??? Is it that we can’t wield our swords anymore, or have you just gotten too cocky? Calling you Grandmaster Zhang, so what? The sky cleared, the rain stopped, and suddenly you think you’re all that again? You don’t actually believe that just because the police reported on you and you’ve mastered Hidden Force, you’re so incredible, do you? Let me tell you, you’re still far from it! Mere Hidden Force? I mastered that when I was 12. You’re only getting it at 20. What’s there to show off about?”

”Exactly! You think this level is worth bragging about? If you’re so capable, release your Vital Energy and achieve Harming from a Distance! If you can’t, then what are you showing off for?!”

”It’s useless. Same old saying: I’m standing 10 meters away from you with a gun. How are you going to fight me?”

”Mere firearms? What’s there to fear? I wield my weapon with such skill that I’m impenetrable; bullets can’t get through. What good are firearms? Blogger, instead of listening to them and practicing these useless things, you might as well learn a Weapon. When you can wave it around casually, stirring up a Piercing Gale, firearms? Hmph, mere toys!”

”Just creating a Piercing Gale? What’s so great about practicing that? If you’re starting with weapons, then obviously you should train with something awesome. Go straight for blade mastery! One slash to make the river halt its flow—now that’s badass!”

”Well, if you’re going to say that, then I’ll have to bring out my Sword Twenty-Three. Halting a river’s flow is nothing! I’d let my Sword Intent soar 3,000 li. Just see how you could fight me then!”

”All unnecessary! Blogger, you might as well just become light. What good are swords and guns then? All bullshit!”

”If you’re going to talk like that, then I might just have to pull out this card and fight you!”

”......”

He watched his own comments section. Netizens were furiously replying beneath his comment, their interactions slowly turning into a cyberspace cricket fight, each competing to prove who was stronger. A smile spread across Zhang Beixing’s face.

This is more like it,

he thought. Challenging me, then offering suggestions—that’s the right way to go about it!As he thought this, Zhang Beixing sneakily deleted a comment that said, ”Don’t fall for the blogger’s ploy; he’s deliberately provoking us.”

With a thought, Zhang Beixing opened the System panel.

He noticed many new suggestions on the panel.

[Suggestion: Release Vital Energy, Harming from a Distance! Difficulty: S. For every boxing routine performed that releases Bright Force, reward 5 Ability Points.]

[Suggestion: Sword Qi Rushing to Heaven, Dividing the River and Breaking the River! Difficulty: Not yet displayed. One slash to make a river halt its flow, reward 10+ Ability Points.]

[Suggestion: Sword Intent Soaring, Unparalleled! Difficulty: Not yet displayed. One slash to behead someone a thousand li away, reward 10+ Ability Points.]

[Suggestion: Become Light, Illuminating the World! Difficulty: S+. Master the Power of light, causing one’s body to emit a strong glow, reward 10 Ability Points.]

[Suggestion: Piercing Gale, Sword Intent and Blade Qi! Difficulty: A. Master any cold weapon. Wield it to stir up a Piercing Gale. For every 100 swings, reward 3 Ability Points.]

[Suggestion: ......]

Looking at those suggestions, Zhang Beixing began to pick and choose.

Before long, he had selected ”Piercing Gale, Sword Intent and Blade Qi” and ”Release Vital Energy, Harming from a Distance.”

These two suggestions were extremely useful for his current situation.

The latter was self-explanatory: it was about Zhang Beixing training with a Weapon.

This was a significant pain point for him.

His close-combat capabilities were undoubtedly powerful.

But at even a slight distance, he was somewhat helpless.

This was especially true when dealing with the knife-wielding human traffickers today.

If Zhang Beixing had mastered a Weapon, he figured he wouldn’t even have been injured and could have directly killed that group of people.

But it hasn’t specified which weapon I need to train—do I have to choose for myself?
