With Heaven-Defying Comprehension, I Conquered the Tang Dynasty Before Learning It Was Journey to the West

I am Jiang Liu, obsessed with martial arts and blessed with heaven-defying comprehension! I learned to read at three, studied the classics at four, and at five grasped the Vajra Demon-Subduing Art from the Diamond Sutra. At six, I began learning martial arts from all schools through every means available. From the Iron Shirt to the Cihang Sword Manual, this little monk borrowed them all. By nine, my martial arts were already perfected. At ten, I left Jinshan Temple to seek out and challenge the righteous and demonic masters of the world. Now, I'm nearly thirteen. At last, I've defeated the world's number one expert, the Evil King Shi Zhixuan. I've conquered the Tang world and become a martial arts legend!

Jiang Liu's master told him that his real name was Chen Wei, that he had a mother named Yin Wenjiao, and that his father was Chen Guangrui.

“I just conquered the Tang world, and now you're telling me this is Journey to the West?”

Even better! I've got plenty of room to make my mark! I'll enter the Dao through martial arts, become a Buddha through martial arts, and fight my way through Journey to the West. You want to be my disciple? Sure, but first, let's have a match!
