Synopsis

In his previous life, he was a top-tier con artist. In this life, he is a lay disciple of Shaolin.

Others rely on their fists to make their way in the martial world. He relies on his brains.

A copy of the Tendon-Changing Classic, roasted over a fire.

A Great Restoration Pill, swiped while no one was looking.

Drawing on his own experiences, Wei Lai will show you that fists and blades alone aren't enough to get by in the martial world. You also need a little social savvy, and... a tiny bit of shamelessness.
