High Martial: You Changed My Exam Choices, So Why Are You Crying Now That I'm Top Scholar?

[High-martial world + cosmos + urban martial arts + wish fulfillment + no saintly protagonist + decisive and ruthless + evolution + campus belle] Lin Yu was born into a high-martial world where technology and martial arts coexisted. After eighteen years, with the college entrance exams approaching and his homeroom teacher asking him to submit his choices, he resolutely picked a martial arts university, despite knowing his talent was nothing special. But when he got home, his father told him that the compensation from the insurance company for his mother’s accidental death had been used to pay for his stepbrother’s martial arts training. Even the money Lin Yu had saved up over years of part-time work had been spent on nutritional supplements for his stepbrother. Then his homeroom teacher informed him that, to improve the school’s college admission rate, the school had changed the applications of some students who wanted to attend martial arts universities to regular liberal arts colleges, with their parents’ consent. Furious, Lin Yu cut ties with his family and went to confront the school, but got nowhere. Fortunately, there was still a way forward. Lin Yu activated a status panel and gained the trait [One Part Effort, Hundredfold Reward]. Every bit of effort would bring him a hundredfold return. And so Lin Yu went from an ordinary student in an ordinary class to the top student at a prestigious school, then the provincial top scorer, and finally the highest scorer nationwide... His family came calling one after another, but Lin Yu turned them away. “Family? We stopped being that a long time ago.” The principals and homeroom teachers at his former schools regretted their actions deeply.
