    I started reading *The Legend of Heroes* 10 years ago, and the chapter "The Willow of Zhangtai" captivated me throughout my youth. Later, I became active on online forums, obsessed with martial arts novels. In 2016, unable to wait any longer, I started writing my own hero. I wrote 100,000 words and posted them on the forum, even getting them featured. Later, I had to put it on hold due to work. Eight more years have passed, times have changed, the little boy has become an old man, and *Mr. Wild Dog* is still unfinished. A few days ago, I checked my own posts and was still deeply moved. Now, with the internet so developed, I'm rewriting my hero *The Vastness of Heaven and Earth* on Tomato Novels, with multiple protagonists, multiple storylines, and multiple perspectives, witnessing many stories alongside Zheng He's voyages. It doesn't have that fast pace, and I wonder if anyone still reads traditional martial arts novels like this? A tribute to martial arts.

    Pure martial arts, no cultivation of immortality. There are no strict power levels. The story unfolds based on the historical timeline of the Song Dynasty. It strives to respect history and the original works. The original works referenced include: *Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils*, *Water Margin*, *Jin Ping Mei*, *The Generals of the Yang Family*, *The White-Browed Hero*, and *The Four Great Martial Arts Novels*. The writing style leans towards contemporary internet slang, solely to prevent readers from finding it dull. This male-oriented novel chooses A Zi as the protagonist simply because she is ruthless, has no idol baggage, is decisive in killing, and is cruel in her executions.

    Sharing a martial arts novel I've been following for a while. It features a transmigrated male protagonist who starts out completely powerless, but understands the reality of "the poor are scholars, the rich are warriors." He doesn't waste time with inventions and knows how to conceal his abilities. He uses the Heaven and Earth Society's escort to Leigu Mountain and seizes an opportunity with the Free and Unfettered Sect through special luck. It doesn't rely on brute force; he's strategic and skillful in acting. The romance is natural, not forced, making for a very immersive reading experience.
