From the Start, I Built Nuclear Fusion by Hand, and You Call This Ancient Martial Arts?

Earth's spiritual energy has dried up, martial arts have declined, and the world has entered what is known as the "Age of the End of Magic." In modern cities, ancient martial artists conceal their identities, and ancient martial arts have become little more than flashy routines for keeping fit. Those with supernatural abilities exist only in legends.

Chen Guan, an ordinary history student, accidentally activates an ancient tortoiseshell while sorting through his grandfather's belongings. From then on, he sees a completely different world: he can perceive the "qi" dissipating from all things, understand the true meaning of lost ancient texts, and even use modern scientific thinking to analyze and reconstruct ancient martial arts!

While others painstakingly cultivate their inner strength, he uses fluid mechanics to optimize the flow of his inner breath.

While others memorize techniques by rote, he uses game theory to figure out the optimal solutions to martial arts.

He starts livestreaming and opens a martial arts school, using scientific proof to redefine martial arts as a prominent field in the new age.

However, as his cultivation advances, Chen Guan discovers a world-shaking secret hidden behind the Age of the End of Magic. The ancient enemy has never left, and he himself is the stone thrown into this pool of stagnant water.

"You say martial arts are dead? Don't rush. I'll give them a grand resurrection ceremony."
