Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System-Chapter 483 - 190: Changes in Own Body, Releasing Another Video!_2

With this thought, Yang Ying grabbed the fire extinguisher and stepped forward. Using the extinguisher, he suppressed the roaring flames advancing from behind Zhang Beixing and joined the others by his side.

At this moment, Zhang Beixing had just finished his retracting stance, drawing all his energy back into his body.

Just as he was about to speak, his gaze fixed ahead, preparing to say something, what met his eyes were seven or eight people. This group reached out their hands toward him. Some grabbed his arms, others his waist, and still others his legs.

Before Zhang Beixing could figure out what was happening, the people let out a "HEAVE-HO!" and lifted the bewildered Zhang Beixing, carrying him off as if they were stealing a dog.

Zhang Beixing: "???"

"Wait, what are you all doing? Put me down!"

Thanks to Zhang Beixing’s intervention, the fire was controlled without any casualties. All that remained was to wait for the ambulance and fire department to arrive, take the victims for treatment, and extinguish the blaze completely.

The real-life fire incident thus concluded.

However, online, the buzz around the event was just starting to build.

Earlier, a passerby had mentioned filming Zhang Beixing’s heroic actions during the rescue and posting the video on Douyin. Douyin was, at the time, one of Great Xia’s most popular short-video platforms with the largest user base. Coupled with the fact that a fire is inherently attention-grabbing—let alone a rescue from within one—the video’s popularity surged soon after it was posted, attracting the attention of numerous netizens. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"WTF? What the heck is this? Did I wake up too suddenly? Why am I seeing someone fly in broad daylight?"

"Damn! Is this a movie shoot? It’s pretty interesting, but something feels off. A fire, modern buildings, someone jumping over ten meters high... Man, are they filming a modern action flick or a Martial Hero film?"

"Could it be that this is actually a sci-fi film? Like the ’Shanghai Cannon’ meme, perhaps? (grinning)"

"Hold up, everyone! Don’t be so quick to flame. This doesn’t look like a movie promo. It seems like something that actually happened in real life!"

"Real life? Dude above, do you even hear yourself? You think something this ridiculous can happen in your ’real life’? Paid commenters, try to be less obvious, will ya?"

"Obvious my ass! You’re just spouting nonsense, aren’t you? Take a good look at the video. Look at the person in it! Isn’t that our Brother Bei?!"

"Brother Bei? Holy crap, it really is him! Why is he even in this video? Didn’t that dude say he was going into seclusion to break through to the Transcendent realm and overcome his human limitations?"

"Beats me. Maybe the guy realized he couldn’t live up to the huge boasts he made, so he just switched careers and became an actor instead."

"You know, don’t say it, but you might actually be onto something. After all, he did brag an awful lot. Seeing that he couldn’t pull it off, switching careers would be a way to cut his losses in time."

"But, gotta say, Brother Bei definitely has what it takes to be an actor. With his Martial Arts accomplishments, being the only Great Grandmaster in seven hundred years, if he were to shoot action films, he wouldn’t even need a stunt double!"

"What the heck? He was doing fine as a ’realist stream’ blogger, and he’s not even taking up the role of President of the Great Xia Martial Arts Association, but instead, he runs off to act? So lame!"

"Yeah, seriously. @Zhang Beixing, Brother Bei, what on earth are you thinking? Come out and give us an explanation!"

"Same question here! @Zhang Beixing, Brother Dan, what’s the deal? Are we just giving up on the ’realist stream’? You’re the founding father of the realist stream! How can you abandon it?"

"@Zhang Beixing..."

The netizens chatted away in the comments section. At some point, someone mentioned movies, and the whole tone of the discussion veered off in a bizarre direction, quickly spiraling out of control.

It wasn’t their fault for reacting this way. Their nine years of compulsory education had taught them that their world was ordinary to an almost unimaginable degree. Feats like maneuvering in mid-air or flying without any support were things that simply couldn’t happen in their lives.

Consequently, after the initial shock of watching the video wore off, their first reaction was disbelief.

Total disbelief!

They concluded that the video’s content was pure nonsense. It wasn’t credible in the slightest; it had to be, one hundred percent, for a movie or TV show.

At the same time, because Zhang Beixing, the founding father of the ’realist stream,’ was now suspected of abandoning it to go into acting, many netizens who had been drawn to the ’realism’ aspect were quite displeased. A frenzy of @-mentions erupted in the comments section. They clamored for Zhang Beixing to come forward and give them a reasonable explanation.

Zhang Beixing, however, had no time to pay any attention to this.

Because at that very moment, he was busy receiving thanks.

After half an hour of intense work, the firefighters finally extinguished the flames. The fire captain went inside to inspect the building. Upon confirming that no one had been injured or killed, he firmly grasped Zhang Beixing’s hand, his voice filled with immense gratitude as he said, "Sir, we are incredibly grateful to you! Thanks to your efforts in saving that child, the impact of this fire was minimized. For such a massive blaze to result in no fatalities is truly remarkable. Thank you, truly!"

This fire had been no small matter. The fact that there were no casualties was undoubtedly a huge relief and a great success for them as firefighting professionals. Thus, Zhang Beixing, the one who had prevented any loss of life, naturally became the recipient of their heartfelt gratitude.
