Chen Wu is nineteen and a freshman at Jiangcheng University. Because of his slight build, he is repeatedly bullied by campus bully Wang Hao and his gang. After they beat him badly enough to break a bone, he decides he won't back down anymore. He'll reclaim his dignity with his fists, starting with his first fight in a restroom, then fight his way across campus and out into the streets.
He gathers brothers, takes territory, wipes out rival gangs, and sweeps through the underworld... From a college student trampled underfoot to the boss of the west side, then a fearsome underworld kingpin whose name shakes the streets.
This is a path to power paved with blood and fire. One step back means plunging into the abyss. Keep moving forward, and either reach the top or lose everything.
