Douluo Dalu: Forged by the Sword, Excalibur!

Not a wish-fulfillment novel! Not a wish-fulfillment novel! When Lin Shichen awakened his Martial Soul and the legendary golden sword, “Excalibur,” appeared, the fate of the entire continent quietly veered off course. Schemes, open plots, pressure from higher planes... yet in the end, he still set out on the path to kingship. He has the same face as the Knight King, Artoria Pendragon. For a boy, this is both a blessing and a curse. But in this world that worships strength, he bears more than the burden of being born the wrong sex. He also carries the weighty expectations of an entire world and the endless legacy of the Throne of Heroes. People mock his excessively beautiful face, until the golden sword, bearing the law of victory, cuts every sneer to pieces. And at the crossroads of fate, he meets Gu Yuena. She is the sovereign of the soul beasts, with silver hair and violet eyes, looking down upon all living beings. The generations-old feud between humans and soul beasts lies between them. They should have been mortal enemies, bound by fate. But when she gazes into his emerald-green eyes, she sees a soul as lonely as her own. “You and I are so alike,” she whispers. Amid the flood of war between humans and soul beasts, the rulers of two worlds stand shoulder to shoulder. With the holy Excalibur as their guide, they face threats from the stars and the abyss together. “If... I mean, if we ever stood on opposite sides...” “Opposite sides? There's no such thing. We're all beings of the same continent. How could we be enemies?”
