    This is an urban martial arts novel (with a hidden ancient martial arts family in the city). It features no system, skilled martial artists descending from the mountains, intelligent protagonists, and a peerless healer. It's not a mindless wish-fulfillment story. There are currently no cheat codes; the protagonist isn't too overpowered. The characters are vividly portrayed and highly recommended. The novel leans towards romance and combat, and will feature some exciting love triangles. You can see character designs and illustrations of the protagonist and heroine by clicking on the post.

Internal martial arts levels are divided into External Strength, Internal Strength, Innate, and Grandmaster.
