Urban High Martial Arts: Kill a Thousand, Lose Eight Hundred?

On Awakening Day, the world changes. Rifts appear, and humanity enters an era of high martial arts.

While everyone awaits the awakening of transcendent powers capable of destroying the heavens and earth, Gu Bei awakens an E-rank ability in Steel City that everyone laughs at: [The Law of Attrition].

Its effect is explained in a single, cold line: In any battle where you are the command center, the casualty ratio between both sides will be forcibly locked at 0.8:1.

“Kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred of your own? What kind of trash-tier skill is this?” the evaluator says with a sigh and a shake of his head.

The other newly awakened people burst out laughing. Not even the weakest E-rank squad is willing to take him in.

But no one has ever thought to ask this: Once the casualty ratio is locked in place, does the divide between the weak and the strong still exist? He charges into an A-rank rift with eight hundred cockroaches and wipes out the abyssal beasts that annihilated an entire elite squad.

He pats an ordinary person on the shoulder and says, “Go. I grant you the courage to slay a thousand.” The next second, that person cleaves the head of an S-rank ferocious beast with a single strike.

It's not that he's invincible. It's that his rules are invincible.

By the time everyone finally realizes that this “weakest awakening” is actually the ceiling of combat power, capable of crushing dimensions, a storm of rule-based powers that will overwhelm everything has only just begun.
