High Martial: The Person Behind That Door Is Learning from Me

[High Martial Arts] [Restricted-Zone Defense Line] [Super Regeneration] [Mystery and Horror]

Lin Chen transmigrated into a modern high-martial-arts world overrun by alien species, becoming a trainee at the East District Special Training Base.

No one knew where the aliens came from. Beyond the defense line lay nothing but contaminated zones. Humanity relied on Awakened Ones to defend its cities, but their numbers dwindled every year as the aliens multiplied. Knowledge was powerless; only supernatural abilities mattered.

He awakened [Super Regeneration]. The more grievous his injuries, the longer he stayed alive. While others trained to unleash explosive force, he trained to take a beating. While others fought for rankings, all he wanted was to survive.

But gradually, he realized something was wrong with this world. In every crucial match, his opponent would inexplicably make a mistake at the final strike. A slip of the hand, weak legs, a prediction off by half an inch. Once was luck, three times was poor form, but what about ten times?

He began investigating. He searched the old files of Shen Yue, a previous-generation Regeneration-type, looked into the last three months of Xia Yuan's life, and investigated the unnumbered old iron door deep within the base.

The door didn't open. Something inside pressed its hand against the other side of the iron plate.

The man in gray work clothes said, "What you've been training in and the thing in there come from the same source."

At last, Lin Chen realized it wasn't that he was strong. It was that the world was going easy on him.

And the thing behind the door was imitating him.
