Novice's perspective:
The Sword Contest, held once every ten years, has begun again by the West Lake.

Burning with enthusiasm, he travels a thousand miles to attend the Sword Contest at the Cangjian Manor.

Expert's perspective:
What is the jianghu, and what is the world?

Two protagonists. The secondary pairing is a Balebane and a Dreadwraith. The Beggar's Sect, Tang Sect, Cangjian, and Qixiufang characters also make guest appearances.
The story is set more than ten years after the game. The jianghu remains turbulent, and remnants of the Wolf Fangs are still plotting in the shadows.
Come on(? ??_??)?!
