Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System-Chapter 457 - 183: What is Transcendent? Change the environment, break the rules!

After two days of recovery on Mount Everest, he had almost healed his injuries. Zhang Beixing did not stay much longer and soon left the place.

「December 15th, Friday.」

After more than two months, Zhang Beixing finally returned to Shishi. He watched as the car slowly drove into the all-too-familiar landmark building. Stepping off the high-speed rail, Zhang Beixing took a deep breath of Shishi’s genuine old smog. He felt the choking haze pour in with his breath, sticking to the fine hairs within his nasal passages. It was then that Zhang Beixing realized he was really back home.

This was the aroma the people of old Shishi remembered. It was something that had been with them since childhood! The air in other provinces was too fresh, lacking intensity. Only this smell was genuinely authentic!

HONK! He pulled out a tissue, wiped his nose, and casually tossed it into a trash bin.

Zhang Beixing strode toward the station exit.

Just as he stepped out, unsurprisingly, Zhang Beixing ran into a police officer who had come to register him as a returnee. He efficiently completed the registration.

Then, Zhang Beixing went down to the underground parking lot and saw a military vehicle that had been waiting there for a while. These were people from the Shishi military district.

Days ago, while Zhang Beixing was resting after completing the last of Oizaki’s Eight Challenges, he thought about needing a place to delve into martial arts and organize his recent insights once he returned. So, he simply contacted the Shishi military district and informed them he was coming back.

Hearing that Zhang Beixing had actually completed the trial of the Heaven-Stealing Machine version of Oizaki’s Eight Challenges, Huo Honghao was shocked. Then, he expressed his welcome for Zhang Beixing to come to their Shishi military district for secluded training.

Frankly speaking, Huo Honghao just wanted Zhang Beixing, upon his return this time, to complete the second phase of training they had previously agreed upon.

Zhang Beixing was well aware of Huo Honghao’s intentions. After all, it had been promised beforehand. Furthermore, Zhang Beixing also needed a quiet place, far from the bustling city, for secluded cultivation to carefully ponder how to reach the Transcendent.

He got into the military vehicle. It didn’t take long for Zhang Beixing to arrive at the Shishi military district.

Because he had notified them in advance, Huo Honghao was already waiting at the door. As Zhang Beixing alighted, Huo Honghao approached him, laughed heartily, embraced him briefly, and then they separated.

Huo Honghao looked at Zhang Beixing, "Young Zhang, you’ve really made headlines these past few months!"

"The video of you taking on the Heaven-Stealing Machine challenges is all over the internet now."

"I watched it too, man, you were awesome! Crossing the Yangtze River on a single bamboo pole, surfing through a tsunami, hang gliding from Tianmen Mountain."

"Netizens have started calling you ’Daredevil Bro.’"

"They’re even comparing ’Daredevil Bro’ with you, discussing who’s more formidable!" Huo Honghao said, chuckling.

Hearing Huo Honghao’s comments, Zhang Beixing couldn’t help but let out a silent laugh. He was aware of the situation online. After all, he was there to take up challenges, not to disappear from the world. He would go online and watch videos when he had nothing else to do. Naturally, he also saw that netizens were comparing him to ’Daredevil Bro.’

Truth be told, when he first learned about it, Zhang Beixing was speechless. He could understand battling electronic crickets, but for them to pit him against himself... that was a bit far-fetched.

He didn’t bother explaining, though. Firstly, because he wanted to see how far these netizens, these ’digital lords,’ would take the discussion. Secondly, he simply didn’t have the time to explain.

For Zhang Beixing right now, breaking into the Transcendent was his primary goal. As for all the other miscellaneous matters, they would have to wait.

"Alright, Brother Huo, stop teasing me about this." 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"Let’s get down to business. Is everyone assembled?" Zhang Beixing rubbed his brow and asked Huo Honghao.

Hearing this, Huo Honghao replied, "They’re all assembled. I told them yesterday that you were coming back, and they were ecstatic. Too excited to sleep well, they got up at the crack of dawn and have been waiting for you on the training ground."

"Alright, then I’ll head over now. Once I’m done, we can chat more," Zhang Beixing said.

Huo Honghao nodded, then walked alongside Zhang Beixing towards the training ground.

Despite his harsh training methods, Zhang Beixing was privately dubbed the ’Minister of Punishments’ by the group of Kings of Soldiers and elite troops. But that didn’t mean they were resistant to him. On the contrary, they greatly respected and admired Zhang Beixing! Because Zhang Beixing was incredibly strong and knew so much. They had only been learning from Zhang Beixing for two weeks, and the gains were comparable to months of their own hard training. Not to mention that Zhang Beixing had also taught them the incredibly profound Natural Breathing Technique.

Following this trend, they couldn’t even dare to imagine how strong they would become!

Now that Zhang Beixing was finally back, the thought of facing those arduous yet immensely rewarding challenges again filled every single one of them with a mixture of dread and overwhelming anticipation.

Zhang Beixing was oblivious to this. He just observed the group. He wondered how their skills had developed over the past few months.

Then, to test their strength and tailor his teachings accordingly, Zhang Beixing employed his favorite and most common method: "Everyone, attention, horse stance, go!"
