Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System

Chapter 382: Chapter 169: Thousands of warriors in the world, only I, Zhang Beixing, am unmatched!_3

Ermao Si also felt this was going to be difficult.

”Who knows if it will work out? Anyway, that’s what he said, so I might as well do him a favor.”

”If he can break through to Great Grandmaster, our military district will also have played a part in it.”

”If he can’t break through, it’s no big deal. His talent speaks for itself; investing in him is definitely not a loss. Plus, we can invite him over later to provide combat training and share insights for our soldiers, which could definitely help their training!”

Huo Honghao shrugged, indicating that, in this matter, he couldn’t lose either way.

At this, Ermao Si nodded, acknowledging his point as valid.

Then, as if he’d thought of something, he let out an, ”Oh,” and looked at Huo Honghao, saying, ”Speaking of Zhang Beixing, I remembered something I saw before I came here. It’s about those people in our Great Xia Martial Arts circle... out of nowhere, they suddenly started acting bizarre!”

”Acting bizarre? What happened?” Huo Honghao raised an eyebrow.

”I didn’t look into the details, just glanced briefly. It seemed like they were boycotting Zhang Beixing or something. Open Douyin now; you should be able to find it easily. It’s a hot topic right now!” Ermao Si replied.

Hearing this, Huo Honghao took out his phone and opened Douyin.

He found that the situation was exactly as Ermao Si had said.

On Douyin, Zhang Beixing was, yet again, trending.

Zhang Beixing had only trended four times before.

The first time was when he helped the Shishi police arrest traffickers.

The second time was when he assisted Yanjing’s military region in shooting a recruitment video.

The third time was the incident with Black Ghost.

And this fourth time, it was for a reason no one expected; he’d unexpectedly landed on the trending list: BREAKING! Great Xia’s Gutsiest Man, Grandmaster Zhang Beixing, Stripped of Martial Artist Status!

”What???”

Seeing the trending headline, Huo Honghao was completely baffled.

What was this all about?

Filled with utter confusion, Huo Honghao clicked to investigate.

He saw that aside from the Northern River Province Martial Arts Association and the Martial Arts Association headquarters, other provincial Martial Arts Associations had also issued statements today, collectively stripping Zhang Beixing of his status as a Martial Artist.

Yanjing Martial Arts Association: ”Recently, our association received multiple reports that the newly promoted Grandmaster Zhang Beixing has deliberately provoked trouble and maliciously challenged dojos, seriously disrupting the rules and order among our Great Xia Martial Artists, causing severe economic and reputational damage. The nature of this offense is extremely egregious. After review by our association, the situation has been confirmed as true. We have unilaterally stripped Zhang Beixing of his Martial Artist status and blacklisted him, never to be employed or received. We hope all who practice martial arts will take this as a warning: do not abuse your superior strength and recklessly violate martial codes!”

Nanhe Province Martial Arts Association: ”Recently, our association received multiple reports that the newly promoted Grandmaster Zhang Beixing deliberately posted inappropriate comments online, disparaging Great Xia Martial Arts, engaging in malicious competition, and creating conflicts, causing a serious crisis of trust. After review by our association, the situation has been confirmed as true. We have unilaterally stripped Zhang Beixing of his Martial Artist status and blacklisted him, never to be employed or received. We hope all who practice martial arts will take this as a warning: do not abuse your superior strength and recklessly violate martial codes!”

Beihu Province Martial Arts Association: ”...”

Notices like these flooded the screen.

They no longer acknowledged this Grandmaster, Zhang Beixing, as one of their Great Xia Martial Artists!

Seeing this, Huo Honghao was as baffled as could be.

Wait a minute. If Huo Honghao remembered correctly, hadn’t Zhang Beixing recently sparked a wave of martial arts enthusiasm? And now, these various Martial Arts Associations... it would have been one thing if they simply didn’t capitalize on the martial arts craze Zhang Beixing had generated by promoting him. But to actually go against all common sense, turn on him, and strip Zhang Beixing of his status as a Great Xia Martial Artist?

”Are they insane?” Huo Honghao muttered, his face etched with confusion, unable to fathom the rationale behind these people’s actions.

Then he opened the comment section.

He found that people in the comment section, like himself, could not understand the statements from these Martial Arts Associations, and many were even angry!

”??? Am I seeing things, or what? I wake up early, and my Brother Bei has been kicked out of the Martial Arts registry?”

”What kind of stunt is this? Huh? Did your accounts get hacked or something? How could you post something like this?”

”Seriously! And what’s this about ’deliberately provoking trouble, maliciously challenging dojos’? I know Brother Dan can be a pain and isn’t exactly a saint, but he wouldn’t go as far as you’re claiming!”

”I don’t understand, and I can’t understand. I’m even starting to doubt if these Martial Arts Associations are out of their minds!”

”Haha! Good! Serves him right for being expelled! I’ve couldn’t stand Zhang Beixing for ages. So what if he became a Grandmaster at twenty-one? What’s there to be so arrogant about? Fighting all over the country, making some Grandmaster ranking list... PAH! Is he even worthy? Does he even know the meaning of humility?”

”Fuck! You son of a bitch who posted that, what the hell are you yapping about? My Brother Dan became a Grandmaster at twenty-one! If he can’t be a little proud, who the fuck can? Your damn mother? What gives you the right to criticize my Brother Bei here?”

”Heh, someone’s triggered! Is this one of Zhang Beixing’s loyal fanboys? This is hilarious!”

”Fuck you ****, your whole family *****, and you’re so ’filial’ to your mom!”

”I was already furious seeing what these Martial Arts Associations posted, and now this crap in the comments... You Martial Artists are a real piece of work, repaying kindness with treachery, just like the wolf in the fable of Mr. Dongguo! Have you all forgotten that my Brother Bei stood up for Great Xia Martial Arts, even if it meant seriously offending foreigners to do it?”
