Arthur's gaze swept across the audience, taking in the young faces, and he murmured, "Agares, what do you think I should say?" The phantom of the Red Devil lingered behind him, drool almost dripping from the corner of his mouth: "Look at these ignorant souls, they still worship you as a hero. Why don't you say something they want to hear?" Arthur took a deep breath and roared deafeningly, "Oxford is full of sons of bitches!" "Oh!!!!" Thunderous applause erupted from the audience. "Cambridge too!" He quickly added. The applause grew even louder. (The protagonist, possessed by a demon, travels to 19th-century England; a world without demons.)

Curator note

He can see everyone's desires, but he can't see his own. Mu Lin traveled from 2026 to 2440, gaining a pair of "Eyes of Desire"—the green light above his head represents dedication, the red light represents greed, the white light represents struggle, and the black light represents the abyss. In this era where genes are universally available, consciousness can be uploaded to the national cloud, and psychic energy can be used to sign contracts with other worlds, everyone is running naked in front of him. There is only one blind spot: himself. Over the course of four hundred years, the invasion from another world brought new life and materials, and the three major powers embarked on different paths of evolution—the descendants of Yan and Huang popularized genetic ascension, with the nation providing a safety net, and their consciousness could be uploaded to the cloud to continue serving society, but unlimited life was prohibited, blocking the path of ascension; the United States of Europe replaced physical bodies with machines and turned souls into a business; the Federation of America traded with the other world using psychic energy, and spiritual authority was auctioned off. Mu Lin, a time traveler with only a high school education, is drawn into this rift in civilization. [Not a wish-fulfillment story] [System-based]

What is martial arts? Martial arts have nothing to do with music, chess, calligraphy, or painting; they have nothing to do with treasures or secret manuals; and there are no so many "world's best" martial arts. Martial arts are a skill, a skill that allows the weak to seize an opportunity to wield their swords against the strong. What is chivalry? Chivalry is not about romance or traditional culture; it has nothing to do with gentleness, kindness, respect, frugality, or modesty. Chivalry is violence; it's the bayonet forged by those forced into banditry for a tyrant. Cao Mo allied with Ke, then returned to Lu and invaded its territory. Zhuan Zhu presented roasted meat, pacified Wu, and usurped the throne. Zhang Di cried in the marketplace, then avenged his lord by smearing the latrine. He cut his throat to plead his case, acting swiftly and decisively. The tyrannical Qin dynasty stole his spirit, while cowards gained courage. This is a martial arts story. In the 1930s, a group of like-minded young people came together to work towards changing the world. Then, two hundred years later, in a certain landfill, Xiang Shan, the progenitor of cyber martial arts who had recreated the world and established his own system, woke up while chanting the name of his enemy, having lost all his memories. "Perhaps it's because I lost back then that the world has become the way it is..." "Then this time, I will not lose!" This is the story of one person who changed the world once again!
