Jiaoshan Sword Shadows

Since the founding of the Great Ming Dynasty, the martial world has suffered three great calamities. For decades, talent dwindled and the entire community fell into decline. It wasn't until the later years of Emperor Jiajing's reign that the martial world recovered its vitality and produced many outstanding young heroes.

At the time, the martial world was divided into nine major powers: six in the south and three in the north. The south had the Seven Stars Sect, the Pale Moon Manor, the Plum Banquet Manor, the Great Marsh Gardens, the Heavenly Net Sect, and the Southern Nest Gang. The north had the Nurturing Virtue Manor, the Thundercloud Fort, and the Giant Scale Sect. The remaining sects either relied on one of these nine powers or were scattered among the lakes, seas, mountains, and hills.
