High Martial: Kicked Out of My Family, I Become a Legend in One Battle

With spiritual qi revival, beast rifts spread across the globe, and martial talent determines one’s fate. The year Gu Chen turns eighteen, the wealthy Gu family takes him back in. He thinks he’s finally found a home. But on his first day back, his father demands that he give his guaranteed spot in the martial arts entrance exam to the fake young master they’ve raised for eighteen years; his mother says being welcomed back into the Gu family is already an enormous blessing; his eldest sister disowns him in public, and his second sister personally shoves him into a storm of public condemnation. In his previous life, Gu Chen keeps giving way, all for that laughable notion of family affection. In the end, he loses his spot, has his martial bones stolen, and is even sent by his whole family into a rift to die in place of the fake young master. When he opens his eyes again, he’s reborn on the day he’s supposed to sign the papers. This time, he won’t give up his spot. He won’t shed his blood. And he doesn’t want the family, either. “Starting today, I’m cutting all ties with the Gu family.” The instant he signs, the Ten-Thousandfold Rebate System activates. Humiliation earns him vitality, abandonment earns him talent, betrayal earns him martial arts. The more you want me to rot in the mud, the more I’ll climb to the top over your heads. From an unwanted son kicked out of his home to a dark horse who sweeps the martial arts entrance exam; from a freshman at the lowest-ranked military academy to the Human Race’s God of War, guarding the nation’s borders. Later, the entire Gu family kneels in the pouring rain, weeping and begging him to come back. Gu Chen stands with his blade in hand, his gaze cold as snow. “You’ve got the wrong person.” “The Gu Chen who longed for a family died at your hands long ago.”
