Unrivaled Under Heaven: Turmoil in the Arms Register

The long-sealed “Weapon Rankings” are about to be reshuffled after twenty years. Currents beneath the martial world surge into towering waves, and the land is once again swept by blood and violence.

The ten masters once listed on the rankings have vanished under mysterious circumstances, died on the battlefield, or withdrawn from the world and hidden their identities. The Saber Emperor's Heaven-Splitting Blade is broken, the Sword Immortal's Frostflow Sword is concealed, and the Spear King has met his end with his Dragon Gall Spear... Legend says their weapons hold the secret of the Black Iron Token. Gather them all, and the hidden arsenal of the previous dynasty can be opened, setting the imperial court, sects, and noble families scrambling to claim it.

Jun Buqi, a young man from Jiangnan, carries the blunt, edge-free Carefree Sword. He only wanted to live in seclusion, but one declaration, “There should be no rankings for the world's weapons,” drags him into this bloody struggle. The Wen father and son manipulate the rankings with their Judge's Brushes, the Evil Emperor secretly controls divine weapons with his Heart-Eating Rings, and the Saber King rages on with his Star-Shattering Blade. The Poison Overlord's Ten-Thousand Poisons Satchel spreads deadly peril, while reclusive masters such as the Spear Saint and the Staff God watch coldly from the sidelines.

From his first appearance at the Heroes' Feast in Luoyang, to the clash between good and evil atop Mount Hua, and finally the decisive battle in an ancient city of the Western Regions, he sees brothers turn against each other for the rankings, innocents slaughtered for empty fame, and divine weapons stained with blood as chivalry is cast into the dust.

When the Black Iron Tokens are gathered and the Xuanyuan Sword appears, Jun Buqi finally understands: rankings are nothing but shackles. The true martial world has no need for a “number one.” With the sheath of the Carefree Sword, he breaks every sharp edge; with a heart free of the sword, he restores order.

This time, the martial world has no rankings, chivalry leaves its mark, and no weapon under heaven is number one.
