42-Year-old Li Xue is a dual master's tutor at the National Defense University. He was born as an orphan and was abandoned due to congenital heart disease. He was cured with the help of national funds and received the kindness of Director Zhang of the orphanage. He developed an upright, warm-hearted, loyal and retributive character.
When he was being hunted, the dragon-patterned jade he carried with him burst out with golden light, taking him through time to another world and becoming Zhao Yan, the dandy of the Zhao family in Qingyang County, Daxia Kingdom. Although Zhao Yan wanders around and does not learn, he is extremely intelligent and hates evil. His current martial arts is the third level of warrior.
The dragon-patterned jade contains the spirit of the golden dragon weapon and the "Secret Realm of Panlong". The nine-story tower in the secret realm corresponds to the realm of martial arts, and only martial masters can climb to the top. The golden dragon helps him practice, protects his master in times of crisis, and can eventually transform into a real dragon.
The martial arts of this world are divided into nine levels (from warrior to martial saint) and gods. Five major forces are divided: the spirit beast force Lingxu Realm protects nature; Xuanyou Mansion practices evil arts and harms living beings; Fentian Que expands its power; Zixiao Alliance leader has an orderly but complex faction; Jubao Pavilion controls the economy and communicates intelligence.
The country of Daxia valued culture over martial arts, which was contrary to the culture of the mainland where martial arts was king. Li Xue, as Zhao Yan, relies on his knowledge and golden fingers from his previous life to get rid of his reputation as a "waste", deal with disputes between all parties, grow up in a strange and turbulent world, and move towards the position of god.
