Demon Caves connect to realms beyond, evil fiends invade, and human traitors lie in wait.
There are nine ranks of martial artists and nine genetic locks. Breaking each lock brings a leap in life.
Wang Heng graduated from a martial arts college and was the most unremarkable tutor at the Star River Martial Society.
No connections, no resources, no talent. His future seemed set in stone.
Until he took on his first student.
The Heavenly Book of the Teacher's Way activated:
Bind students to unlock a martial arts talent pool!
When his students break through, he gains a wealth of cultivation experience.
When they achieve enlightenment, he copies their talents outright.
When they kill enemies above their level, he gets stronger without lifting a finger!
Others could cultivate bitterly for ten years without advancing an inch. After teaching for a year, Wang Heng quietly broke through three genetic locks.
His students swept through the academy tournament, and their team tore through the league. On the championship podium, everyone was asking who their teacher was.
Meanwhile, Wang Heng stood below, flipping through the Heavenly Book of the Teacher's Way and silently copying his eighth talent.
"You take care of winning the championship. I'll take your talents."
"The stronger you get, the stronger I become."
On the day the demonic tide erupted, traitors among the top brass and evil fiends from beyond the realms set their sights on the team at the same time.
Wang Heng glanced at the students behind him and closed the book.
"You want to lay a hand on my students?"
"Then ask me if I'll let you."
