High Martial: The Strongest Man to Emerge from an Orphanage

[Urban High Martial Arts] [Demonic Beast Invasion] [Orphan] [Leveling Up] [Transmigration]

A poor student runs back and forth while carrying several hundred pounds of weight, working himself to the bone just to raise his Qi and Blood by a little.

A rich second-generation heir grits his teeth through searing pain as he injects gene serum that costs hundreds of thousands per dose, all to improve his martial arts aptitude.

Then there are ordinary people who are willing to curry favor with the powerful and serve them as slaves in exchange for martial arts resources. Gold-digging women sleep their way up the ladder, while spineless men grovel at the feet of women built like tanks.

This happens because it is a world where martial arts reign supreme.

Martial artists stand above everyone else, controlling 99 percent of society’s resources.

Ordinary people are as insignificant as ants, like fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others.

There is no doubt that this is a terrible, dark world.

When the protagonist transmigrates, he becomes an orphan. Fortunately, he eventually awakens the Heavenly Reward System: hard work always pays off.

Other people’s efforts may come to nothing, but his are guaranteed to bring rewards.

This is a story about rising step by step through sweat and toil, without an especially overpowered cheat.
