The Martial Saint Starts with a Speedrun

Demons and monsters roam the world. The land is in chaos, the people are destitute, and the dynasty has fallen.

It is an age of crumbling dynastic rule, rival warlords carving up the land, and clans running rampant.

The steppe tribes are poised to invade, while humans and demons frequently collude.

Martial arts, demonic arts, supernatural abilities...

Some demons dominate entire territories and charge passersby tolls. Some mystics wield abilities that let them command every beast with a glance, making a one-person army. Some mighty martial artists subdue all directions and found their own schools.

Qin Xiuming transmigrates into this chaotic age and becomes an ordinary conscript. Fortunately, he carries a five-colored equipment orb that lets him equip skills and gives him a chance to change his fate.

[1. Heavy Waves Technique (White)] [Progress: First Tempering 10%] [Speedrun Requirement: Enter the water and eat three jin of fish]

[2. Stonewall Technique (White)] [Progress: First Tempering 0%] [Speedrun Requirement: Tie yourself to a rock and train]

Gradually, he discovers that the five-colored orb has even more functions.

Once a cultivation method is trained to its limit, methods can even be fused together. [Heavy Waves Technique] * [Stonewall Technique] Compatibility: 67%. Fusion successful: [Ninefold Waves Art (Green)].

Others need secret medicines to practice martial arts. Qin Xiuming only needs to follow the speedrun requirements to simplify the resources needed for cultivation, allowing him to progress ten times faster than anyone else.

Years later, Qin Xiuming stands high above, gazing at the shattered land, then sees apricot-yellow banners unfurl...

“Martial Saint, please save the human world once more!”

Qin Xiuming wears an inscrutable expression and falls into thought.

“At first, I only wanted to follow Gao Huan’s example, guard the city walls, and dream of one day eating a hot bowl of soft rice. How did I end up here?”
