Leveling progression Family saga Cautious protagonist
Lu Chen isn’t a genius. He’s just the young master of a small family in the northern reaches of the Balak Kingdom.
Innate Soul Power: level five. His grandfather was level four, and his father was level four. Three generations, and they’ve gained just one level.
His Martial Soul is an Ironback Wolf. No System, no cheat that defies heaven.
He has only one rule taught by his grandfather: if you can’t win, run; if you can’t outrun them, take the beating. Staying alive matters more than anything.
At fourteen, he enters the Chitong Advanced Soul Master Academy.
There, he’ll meet all sorts of people: the slick Tian Xiaoqi, the taciturn Su Ming, the mysterious Gu Feng, and a gray-robed man whose presence resonates with his Martial Soul.
It’s also there that he begins to discover that the Ironback Wolf passed down through three generations of the Lu family may conceal an ancient secret.
He never goes looking for trouble, but when trouble comes to him, he never backs down.
