In 2026, Chinese martial arts is dying and martial arts is here to stay.
Chen Mo returned home from the army with his broken left shoulder. What greeted him was his father's funeral, the blade of a loan shark, and the tears of his sister who was forced into a desperate situation. On New Year's Eve, he dug out a dusty "Bajiquan Manual" in the ancestral wooden box - and a "Chinese martial arts deduction system" that had been dormant for a hundred years.
"The host's bloodline has been detected. Do you want to bind it?"
"Yes"
That night, Chen Mo awakened the inheritance with blood and shattered fate with fists.
But this world is no longer what it was recorded in boxing records.
The "martial arts loan" with the entry of capital is devouring low-level warriors, transnational groups' superhuman transformations are rampant in the city, and AI martial arts robots claim to sweep human martial arts into the garbage heap of history. Traditional martial arts schools are closing down, the inheritance of ancient methods is being lost, and the word "guoshu" has become a specimen in a museum.
Until Chen Mo hung up the "Mo Wu Tang" sign in Jiangcheng Old Street.
"To learn boxing, you must first learn to be a human being"
"Practice martial arts to protect the Tao"
He recruits construction workers who are forced into debt by loan sharks, teaches students who are bullied on campus, and designs recovery shirts for mothers who return to work after giving birth. Bajiquan defeats Muay Thai, Xingyiquan defeats karate, and Tai Chi Push Hands resolves the deadly calculations of AI.
Until the spiritual energy revived and Kunlun cracked.
The ancient sect appears in the world, the Western Gods descend, and the Annihilation Demon Clan is watching outside the starry sky. Humanity stands at a fork in evolution: embrace technology and become a new god, or return to ancient methods and enter the Tao through martial arts?
Chen Mo clenched his fists, and the old scars on his shoulders were as hot as a soldering iron.
"I choose the third way"
"Use these fists——"
"Create a new era of martial arts!"
