Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System

Chapter 519: Chapter 195: Rank and Code, Encrypted Entry into the National Archive!_5

This is the ultimate state of physical cultivation of the ancients: marrow like frost, blood like mercury slurry, bones like gold and jade!

Seeing such a serious expression on Zhang Beixing’s face, even though the staff member felt it was a bit absurd, he didn’t say much. He simply input Zhang Beixing’s body weight data and pressed the Enter key.

The progress bar began to load.

The system started to evaluate Zhang Beixing based on various data points.

Seeing this, Zhang Beixing also began to look forward to it.

I wonder what my score will be. Surely, it shouldn’t be too low!

Watching the loading progress bar, Zhang Beixing muttered softly.

After a short wait, the progress bar reached the end.

Zhang Beixing’s readings were listed.

[Name: Zhang Beixing]

[Category: Human]

[Height: 185 cm]

[Weight: 267 kg]

[Power: 20,000 N]

[Speed: 22.8 m/s]

[Attack Frequency: 50 ms]

[Endurance: .....]

[Overall Weapon Rating: C]

[Reminder: The Overall Weapon Rating is a comprehensive score derived from factors including lethality, destructive power, controllability, risk level, and effective defensive capability.]

Skipping over the various data indicators, Zhang Beixing’s gaze landed directly on the final comprehensive evaluation. Seeing the mere C-rank, his brows instantly furrowed.

He had clearly exerted his full strength. And the final result is...

”A C??” Zhang Beixing exclaimed, finding it hard to accept. ”Just slightly better than a D!”

Yang Ying and the others, however, reacted oppositely. Staring at the rank displayed on the evaluation, they gasped in shock. They were left even more speechless when they heard Zhang Beixing’s complaint, the corners of their eyes twitching.

”A C-rank isn’t good enough?”

”How could a C-rank ever be good enough?” Zhang Beixing retorted with some confusion. ”It’s just a bit higher than D. I thought I could at least reach B-rank.”

”B-rank...” Yang Ying choked on his words. A moment later, he continued, ”You’re certainly ambitious! Don’t forget what kind of evaluation this is.”

”This is a military armament evaluation!” Yu Jianhong chimed in, then looked at Zhang Beixing as if he were some kind of monster, adding, ”Brother Zhang, you need to understand one thing: all the ranks in our armament evaluation are benchmarked against actual advanced weaponry. D-rank corresponds to pistols, grenades, and the like. The C-rank you achieved... is equivalent to submachine guns and rifles!”

”Exactly, exactly! This is already impressive enough,” Huo Honghao chimed in, his voice filled with unconcealed excitement. ”Until now, no one has ever even received a rank in the armament evaluation! Ever since these evaluation devices were created and put to use, humans have been tested, but none could meet the ranking standards. No human, bare-handed, has ever reached the level of power and destructive capability of advanced weaponry! It’s no exaggeration to say that you are now essentially a walking piece of advanced weaponry—the first of your kind in the entire world!”

”Ah, so that’s how it is!” Zhang Beixing realized.

He understood now that the C-rank was far more significant than he had initially envisioned.

However, considering it from another perspective, the evaluation wasn’t entirely unreasonable. The purpose of the evaluation was to establish benchmarks for responding to various levels of enemy firepower in wartime.

For instance, if an enemy wielding rifles (classified as C-rank) appeared, their lethality would mean they could fire at will—one bullet per life. The controllability and effective defense against such a C-rank enemy were also clear: dispatching a single squad with a B-rank sniper could easily neutralize them.

Take Zhang Beixing, for example. If he were to infiltrate an enemy nation, he could defeat opponents with individual punches. However, he would lack large-scale destructive capabilities. While he could use his Lightness Technique to escape, which was an advantage, he would still be vulnerable to concentrated firepower.

Therefore, assigning Zhang Beixing a C-rank was quite accurate. This was because it was a comprehensive assessment, considering not only destructive power but also the difficulty of containment and control, rather than just a simple comparison of individual combat prowess.

Later, to prevent similar misunderstandings, Yang Ying specifically took the time to explain the general framework of their armament ranking system to Zhang Beixing.

”The global armament ranking system is unified. From low to high, the ranks are D, C, B, A, S, SS, and finally SSS.”

”You’ve already learned about D-rank and C-rank, so I won’t elaborate further on those.”

”Above these, B-rank includes sniper rifles, mortars, and shoulder-fired rocket launchers. This category primarily consists of long-range individual combat weapons.”

”A-rank includes the tanks you saw on your way here; they possess astonishing lethality and high defensive capabilities. From this rank upwards, the armaments are large-scale, long-range heavy military equipment, also characterized by high defense and mobility.”

”S-rank is...”

”And for the final SSS-rank... I don’t need to tell you what kind of weaponry corresponds to this rank, do I? You should know.”

Yang Ying eloquently explained the globally recognized armament ranking system to Zhang Beixing, pausing dramatically only when he reached the ultimate SSS-rank weaponry.

Hearing his words, Zhang Beixing naturally understood what he was referring to. He nodded and said, ”Understood. Miss Qiu, of course.”

As the most terrifying weapon in the world to date, with the strongest killing power and the broadest range, Miss Qiu was rightfully classified as an SSS-rank weapon. A single strike could instantly turn 200,000 people into ”familiar old ghosts.” Such power was unmatched anywhere in the world.

If it had been before, all Zhang Beixing could have done upon encountering such a fearsome weapon was look up to it in awe and admiration.

But now... My sword is not necessarily dull either! Zhang Beixing thought. Miss Qiu is indeed powerful. But my limitless potential for growth and my insane accumulation of Ability Points are not to be underestimated! Just give me some time to raise all my attributes to 999, or even 9,999! By then, being rated an SSS-rank entity based purely on physical prowess might not be a pipe dream! However, for now... I still need to train diligently and build a solid foundation. I must quickly increase the rate at which I earn Ability Points!

「 」

While Zhang Beixing was calculating how he could train upon leaving to rapidly improve himself, Yang Ying, after finishing his chat with Zhang Beixing, walked to the main control console and, taking over from the staff member, began to busy himself with something.

Soon, he had organized Zhang Beixing’s data. But just as he was about to submit it and register it in the national archives, Yang Ying hesitated.

He realized that once this file was registered, it would be synchronized with the databases of all military commands nationwide. Even if access permissions could be set later to restrict viewing of detailed content, the name and rank itself would still be exposed. Then, with a little deduction and investigation, it would be very easy to identify Zhang Beixing. This would undoubtedly be detrimental to Zhang Beixing.

Moreover, this was a registry for advanced weaponry; it was highly irregular and too conspicuous for a personal name to suddenly appear in it.

Thus, after pondering for a moment, Yang Ying reached out and deleted the name ”Zhang Beixing” from the name field. He then called Zhang Beixing over, pointed to the blank space for the name, and said, ”Brother Zhang, come up with a codename for yourself.”

”Codename?” Zhang Beixing was stunned for a moment but soon guessed Yang Ying’s purpose and fell into deep thought.

Under normal circumstances, I could casually reel off a ton of codenames, like ’Shishi’s Lone Male,’ ’Shishi’s Last Romantic,’ ’Shy Introverted Lad,’ ’Eighth-Level Gale,’ and so on. But the critical point is that the codename I choose now will be recorded in the national archives and circulated among all major military commands. Even if I, Zhang Beixing, had the nerve to pick something outlandish, Yang Ying and the others wouldn’t permit it. Besides, a more formal codename would be better. After all, as I improve, I’ll definitely need to update my evaluation regularly. Therefore, I have to think this codename through carefully. It doesn’t have to be exceptionally positive or follow the official narrative, but at the very least, it has to be serious and respectable.

So, after some thought, Zhang Beixing said, ”How about... ’True Martial’?”
