[High Martial] + [Proficiency System] + [Academy Setting] + [Hardworking Genius] + [No Romance]
Three hundred years after the spiritual qi revival, martial arts rule and everyone practices them.
This is an age when you have to carry a weapon even when you go out to buy groceries. Any random case of road rage could turn into a deadly duel with real blades.
Lin Mo, a high school graduate from an ordinary background, earns a place at Jingwu University, Huaxia’s top martial arts academy, by scoring as a dark horse in the martial arts entrance exam.
The academy brings together peerless prodigies from every corner of the country and the world: heirs to martial arts clans, geniuses backed by psychic-energy conglomerates, promising killers from military special training camps... Every one of them has astonishing talent and limitless resources.
Lin Mo has none of that.
Except for a Proficiency Panel that no one else can see.
No talent? No problem. Others learn a combat technique after one practice. I’ll practice it ten thousand times, and it’ll evolve on its own.
[Basic Cleave · Proficiency 100000/100000: Limit surpassed, evolved into: Guan Sheng’s Heaven-Rending Slash]
[Basic Breathing Method · Proficiency 100000/100000: Limit surpassed, evolved into: Primordial Unity Art]
While all the other prodigies compete over talent and resources, Lin Mo quietly swings his blade for the 100,001st time in his dorm.
Then one day, a rift tears open above Jingwu University, and a beast tide floods the campus. The prodigies are forced back at every turn.
Lin Mo picks up the folding guandao that everyone mocked and slowly unfolds it.
The blade flashes, and the moon falls.
“I’ve practiced this strike for three years. Who among you can withstand it?”
If you like no ambiguity and don't like many girls, you can stop reading. The school belle likes him and blushes at every turn. The protagonist becomes stronger in the early stages because of her. You can use the school belle's perspective as a hidden thread (she participates in the protagonist's rise and becomes stronger throughout the whole process), so let's talk about this article.
It's okay, but there's no Virgin and there's no heroine to keep up the good work.
People with this level of proficiency are generally slow-burners, so don't use it if you want to be fast-paced.
It's good to read. I like stories without female protagonists. The character of the main character really struck a chord with me. Enjoy it!!!
It's great, that's how a reckless man should be
It looks good, the male protagonist has a great personality, and the battles are well written.
