<In broad daylight, a man dressed as a homeless person did this to the Yangtze River>

Shocking! A man used a pillow to part the Yangtze River because of a traffic jam.

<A "Moses Parting the Sea" phenomenon appears on the banks of the Yangtze River; the truth behind it is heartwarming>

<Martial Arts Master really exist; revealing the past and present life of a wandering master>

<A down-on-his-luck homeless man turns out to be a martial arts master; he recently boasted that he would measure the earth with his own feet>

On January 10, 2013, the entire internet was flooded with the same news, and a large number of related videos and photos were released, which shocked netizens who had just recovered from the rumors of "Spiritual Energy Revival".

Despite the official silence, doubts persist. However, due to the numerous sources of the videos and the fact that they were filmed from multiple angles and perspectives, everything seemed incredibly authentic. Many videos even included other filmers, and some enthusiasts even reconstructed the positions and angles of each filmer through a series of videos. All of this is enough to convince people that it is not a fabrication.

Of course, this is not enough to make the skeptics disappear, since people only believe what they want to believe.

Conversely, there are clearly more people willing to believe this is true.

In an instant, the entire online community of Pan-Yan Kingdom entered into a frenzy.

Those worn-out, faded pinkish-green Military Coat suddenly became a hot item, with some even featuring holes to let the Cotton Wadding wads out, which were snapped up even more quickly.

In particular, all kinds of products related to orcas sold out instantly, and even major aquariums were packed to capacity.

The red Orca Pillow, in particular, was sold out beyond being a mere frenzy; e-commerce platforms and wholesalers were practically camping out at the clothing factory to snatch it up.

In addition, all sorts of martial arts and superpower-related items have also seen a surge in value, with even newly released martial arts films reaping considerable profits.

While the entire internet was celebrating, a meeting was taking place in the conference room of the Bureau of the Supernatural Tale Countermeasures Bureau.

Besides the few people present, more than forty screens lit up simultaneously, and everyone wore a serious expression. On the projection screen in the conference room, the scene of Feng Xue dividing the river was playing on a loop.

"We underestimated the Combat Power of the [Instructor]," Old Wang's voice came through the loudspeaker, but the Director-General, sitting at the head of the table, shook his head and said:

"The decision is sound. In recent years, with the development of the internet, Weird Tale have become increasingly difficult to control, making communication imperative. Considering the strength demonstrated by the [instructor], his willingness to communicate with us is actually a good thing; at least we have already made preparations in advance. Now, we need to consider what to do next."

"We've discussed this many times. The popularization of martial arts is imperative. The Weird Tale of the East are becoming increasingly unruly. Last year alone, we prevented more than thirty landing attempts. I have no doubt that neighboring countries and regions have been successfully invaded. For example, there are several Fang Cult in South Korea, which is not hard to see the shadow of the Weird Tale of the East."

The man sitting second to the right of the Director-General said in a deep voice:

"I have no doubt that with the advancement of information technology, the spread of Weird Tale will accelerate. Even if we can keep all Weird Tale outside our borders, we may eventually face an era surrounded by countless Weird Tale. Therefore, even just to prepare for the possible future wave of Weird Tale, we must enhance the resilience of our citizens. At least for now, the [instructor] himself is linked to the Weird Tale that 'people from Yan know martial arts.'"

"How many practitioners of the Golden Bell Shield are there now? What is their strength level?" The Director of the General Administration did not answer directly, but turned to look at a monitor on the left. The man on the monitor immediately spoke:

"The Golden Bell Shield unit has expanded to 50,000 personnel. Five have reached the sixth level, where they can ignore anti-materiel weapons, and 25 have reached the fifth level, where they can withstand landmines, Light Machine Gun, and other weapons. These were all participants in the first batch of experiments. However, apart from the 30,000 recently added personnel who are only at around the second level, the other 20,000 have all reached the fourth level. They can easily withstand small-caliber firearms, and ordinary melee weapons are difficult to inflict damage unless they hit vital organs. Based on previous experience, an ordinary recruit can reach the fourth level in six months. Considering the mutation that occurred at the end of last year, this speed will be even faster in the future. However, the current problem is that the training medicines are running low. Without the aid of medicated baths, the progress will be much slower."

Hearing that serious voice, the man sitting in the conference room, with a "Logistics Department" nameplate in front of him, immediately responded:

"The relevant medicinal materials were put into industrial cultivation last year, and the fastest batch can be harvested in two months. Once it enters a virtuous cycle, it should be able to meet the cultivation needs of 200,000 people. In addition, polyploid breeding, transgenic breeding, and medicinal property analysis have also entered the experimental stage. However, considering that there are certain risks involved, there is still a long way to go before it can be put into use."

"Two hundred thousand... does that mean each police station can only allocate four people?"

The low murmur reached everyone's ears clearly, and then everyone saw the Director-General raise his head and look at the third screen on the right, saying:

"What are the changes to public security regulations following the popularization of martial arts?"

"It's still under revision, but our understanding of the extent that martial arts can achieve is far from sufficient. The current draft is only based on speculation from the Golden Bell Shield. Considering the strength demonstrated by the codename [Instructor], I think this draft is somewhat conservative and probably needs to be revised again."

"..."

After a brief silence in the meeting room following the response, the military representative spoke:

"We need some less sophisticated technologies—they don't have to be too advanced, but they need to be simple and easy to learn, and the demand for drugs should be as low as possible—to fill the gap in our drug supply."

"Agreed. Moreover, this will help us to conduct a more in-depth analysis and research on internal energy cultivation. Currently, all cultivation methods are derived from instructors, which is too passive. We must have our own complete system, which requires a large number of samples for reverse engineering."

"Agreed. We still need to release a portion gradually to prevent the public from thinking that we have monopolized all channels."

One by one, the bigwigs expressed their opinions. After a moment's thought, the director of the General Administration turned his attention back to the screen where Old Wang was located.

"You'll still be in charge of communication. Follow the established procedures for communication. Don't immediately refuse if the price exceeds the plan. Also, keep an eye on Xiao Chen's condition and don't put too much pressure on him."

"I know."

At the center of the conversation, Feng Xue was admiring the flame that had rekindled within her body.

Unlike the frailty of the Ambulance Demon, or the Yan Country People Know Martial Arts that need to be shared with others, this flame was so blazing and fierce, yet it belonged solely to him.

The only drawback was that the title of this Weird Tale always reminded Feng Xue of a man who was nagging to the extreme...
