Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System

"Yeah, I heard that recently, quite a few martial arts schools were directly put out of business by Zhang Beixing. Damn it! At first, I thought he was a harbinger of a new era for our Great Xia's Martial Arts. But now it seems, bullshit, this kid is planning to smash our Great Xia Martial Arts' rice bowl!"

"And no kidding! He's unbeatable. Even that female Disciple who follows him around is more than a match for any of us. This is utterly humiliating!"

"Now that you mention it, why is Zhang Beixing going around fighting like this? Doesn't he know it's a very offensive thing to do? After this spree, he's offended everyone in the Great Xia Martial Arts community. How can he still mingle in our circles?"

"I heard a rumor... it seems it's because he wants to steal techniques! Remember at the end of August? Liu Yi and the others were soliciting martial arts Secret Manuals across the country, wanting Zhang Beixing to break through to Great Grandmaster. But they didn't find a single one, right? Everyone figures that's probably what ticked him off, prompting him to act this way. And, according to those who have fought Zhang Beixing and his Disciple, each match lasts a long time. Afterwards, Zhang Beixing starts taking notes. I think there's a very good chance that's what's happening!"

"Shit! For a bloody Great Grandmaster title, he's disregarding the big picture to smash our Martial Arts world's rice bowl? What kind of person is that?! Besides, even if he's trying to steal techniques, could he possibly master them? As if he could grasp the Ultimate Skills of various families with just one look? What's he thinking?"

"Everyone is thinking the same thing, but there's nothing to be done. That's just Zhang Beixing's intention, and he and his Disciple are both very strong. It's maddening!"

Martial arts practitioners across Great Xia were discussing this matter.

Zhang Beixing was certainly in the eye of the storm, attracting everyone's attention.

But no one could understand why Zhang Beixing was making such a huge effort to stir up so much trouble. Because they couldn't understand why Zhang Beixing would take such an extreme approach to observe the Martial Arts of a hundred schools.

You can't master it just by watching it once! Isn't this just a thankless effort that only serves to offend people?

Zhang Beixing naturally knew of their doubts, but he didn't care.

How could sparrows understand the ambitions of a swan? If you can't do it, don't assume others can't either! He was determined to master the 'Master of All'. Not even Jesus could stop him, he claimed!

But before that...

"Master, what do we do if they won't open the door?" Mascot Lin Pengfei asked, returning to Zhang Beixing after knocking on the Wan Family's gate to no response.

After several days of travel and challenges, Zhang Beixing's rank on the Grandmaster leaderboard had now climbed to fourth place. This signified that his journey of challenging fighters across the country was drawing to a close.

All he needed was to spar with Wan Mingde of Xijiang Province, who practiced the original form of Tai Chi. Then, he would make a trip to Dragon Tiger Mountain. After that, the only person left for Zhang Beixing to challenge was the master of Wudang Mountain in Beihu Province, the Clearway Taoist.

According to Zhang Beixing's original plan, he was supposed to challenge these two today, and tomorrow it would be the Clearway Taoist's turn. But now, the plan had changed. That was because Wan Mingde, the third-ranked Grandmaster on the leaderboard, had started playing the turtle, hiding away.

"TSK!" Zhang Beixing clicked his tongue; this was the first Grandmaster he'd encountered who wouldn't open his doors.

It made sense. After all these days, his notoriety had spread throughout the entire Great Xia Martial Arts community. Martial artists were all trying to avoid him. Even Wan Mingde, as a Grandmaster, was no exception. And Wan Mingde also had a unique advantage. He wasn't the head of any martial arts school, nor a sect leader. He was the Family Head! So when faced with Zhang Beixing's challenge, he could simply shut his doors and refuse all visitors! As long as he didn't open this door, even if Zhang Beixing had already registered with the local police in advance, there was nothing Zhang Beixing could do. After all, this was Wan Mingde's house. If Zhang Beixing were to rashly barge in, that would be trespassing. The administrative penalty alone would be more than he could handle. This was also a tactic Wan Mingde often used!

"Thinking ahead, aren't we, Wan Mingde? You want to use your usual tricks to wear me down? Is this the dignity of a Grandmaster?" Zhang Beixing muttered to himself, not particularly surprised.

He had already learned of Wan Mingde's disposition from Chen He Gao before even arriving. His favorite tactic was to put on airs, leaving people waiting outside his door. He had once left Chen He Gao waiting outside for three full days without any response. Then, as soon as Chen He Gao left, Wan Mingde would spread the word that Chen He Gao lacked resolve and didn't have the proper attitude for someone seeking assistance. He was a prime example of hypocrisy.

This time, Wan Mingde was clearly planning to do the same, using this opportunity to thoroughly humiliate Zhang Beixing.

"But do you really think that will work?" Zhang Beixing thought with disdain, then beckoned Lin Pengfei over. "Pengfei, come here and start my livestream. Haven't the fans been clamoring to see a first-person view of my live spars? Today, I'll open their eyes!"

Since Wan Mingde enjoyed playing such hypocritical games, Zhang Beixing wouldn't be polite either!

Zhang Beixing started the livestream. Due to his massive fan base, coupled with his recent challenges against many martial arts schools, his livestream had just gone live, and in no time, the number of online viewers reached 30,000+!
