Heroes violate prohibitions with martial arts; scholars disrupt the law with writing! Online reactions

Facing the mysterious author who had written the founding novel of the National Martial Arts genre, the officials in charge could not help but furrow their brows, feeling that something about this was suspicious.

In the half year since the novel had been published, the mysterious Pillaring Grandmaster Li Hansha and the other Transforming Strength Great Boxers had seemed to spring out of stones. Even with big-data investigations, the authorities could not find the slightest trace of them. They were like invisible people. Wasn't that far too bizarre?!

Were there invisible people in this world?!

The answer was, of course, no!!

How could there be so many people of unknown origin in this world? Especially National Martial Arts Pillaring Grandmasters and Transforming Strength Great Boxers—figures so incredible they defied belief—yet there was not a single trace of them in the big-data records. That was truly strange.

Then there were the "kung fu masters" brought in to cooperate with the research. They clearly practiced the same type of martial art, yet when they performed the same moves, they possessed none of the corresponding destructive force demonstrated by the National Martial Arts boxers in the videos. They seemed to be entirely different things. According to the analysis, they should have lacked the core force of National Martial Arts, which was why they could not unleash any power at all?!

At this point, the relevant officials all had differing reactions toward that mysterious author.

"He should be made to hand over the specific methods of National Martial Arts! Delete the book! This stuff is too dangerous!"

"That's right! If everyone started practicing this so-called National Martial Arts, Central Continent would be filled with a great number of boxers like them. Once conflicts broke out, or they used their strength for personal gain, or even took the crooked path, it would definitely cause enormous chaos..."

"Agreed! Especially targets like Li Hansha and Wang Tianba, the Pillaring Grandmasters hiding in prison—they are extremely dangerous unstable factors! If they ever harbor malicious intentions, the destruction they could cause would be unimaginable!!"

"Ancestor said it well: heroes violate prohibitions with martial arts, scholars disrupt the law with writing, and Buddha disrupts hearts with compassion! I suggest taking down all related videos! Find targets Li Hansha and Wang Tianba as soon as possible..."

After a round of discussion at the meeting, the authorities quickly took action. First, the relevant online videos were blocked at a speed visible to the naked eye. Related topics were shut down one by one as well; clicking on them only brought up 404 pages, along with numerous notices.

--Please do not casually imitate dangerous actions from videos. If you wish to practice traditional martial arts, it is best to visit the appropriate martial arts schools and training institutions!!

Thus, in less than a single day, the videos and topics that had previously sparked the National Martial Arts craze vanished one after another. The trending searches were swiftly occupied by entertainment gossip, and many Netizens soon noticed. Before long, another wave of heated online discussion erupted.

:Holy crap! The videos were all gone this quickly?!

:Someone predicted it on Bihū before. Beings like Transforming Strength Great Boxers and Pillaring Grandmasters possess power beyond ordinary people, so they are far too likely to provoke fear. If they truly harbored malicious intentions, the damage they could cause would be unimaginable. In a city, with their movement speed and combat power, they would be completely impossible to deal with.

:+1 to the person above! That's what I think too! I just wonder how those two Pillaring Grandmasters and the hidden Transforming Strength Great Boxers will react once they find out.

:Brothers, hurry up and download Dragon Snake! I still want to learn National Martial Arts from it! I hope the author can keep going!!

:Thanks for the reminder above! I'm downloading it right now!!

:...

Although the relevant videos had vanished, with the speed of the modern internet, people had long since uploaded them to places like YouTube. It was clearly impossible to ban them completely! Moreover, the videos stirred up a craze overseas as well, instantly drawing the attention of countless Foreigners!!

Watching the "kung fu" masters spar in the videos, the Foreigners' eyes were nearly dazzled blind. Very quickly, the concept of "kung fu" showed signs of becoming popular once again.

Just as the Netizens hurried to download the novel Dragon Snake, some people online became frustrated. They soon discovered that this novel could not be deleted? Furthermore, they had no ability to manipulate it at all, as though it did not exist on the same plane as them.

After seeing the changes online, Gu Chen's expression did not change much. All of this had been within his expectations.

Once National Martial Arts reached the Transformation Level, one could manipulate every part of the body. For instance, one could alter one's height by stretching the tendons and bones, or change one's appearance by adjusting the facial muscles. After such alterations, one would become an entirely different person.

Of course, Gu Chen had not Refined Falsehood Into Truth to create incarnations such as Li Hansha, Wang Tianba, and the Transforming Strength Great Boxers merely to turn them into rats hiding east and west. He intended for them to draw the authorities' attention and prepare for the next stage of his plan.

All told, the Origin Points in his possession had now reached 650,000, enough for him to carry out the next step of Refine Falsehood Into Truth.

Previously, through his incarnation Li Hansha, he had deliberately told Sun Na, Pan Xiaoli, and the others, "A great upheaval in heaven and earth is approaching; an age of great contention awaits." That too had been a foreshadowing, laid to prepare for the next step of Refine Falsehood Into Truth.
