I Abandoned Confucianism for Martial Arts, and This Scholar Went on a Killing Spree

In the final years of the dynasty, the land is in chaos and the people are suffering.

Shen Lian, who could barely lift a weapon, awakens the wisdom of a past life and unlocks the "Heaven Rewards the Diligent" panel.

Seeing this, Shen Lian decisively abandons the classics for martial arts and devotes himself to grinding.

He grinds his way from [Archery (Beginner)] to [A Bow of Ten Thousand Shi, Never Missing a Shot], shooting a halberd from the commander's gate and taking an enemy's head from a thousand miles away!

He grinds his way from [Fist Techniques (Beginner)] to [Might of a Thousand Jun, Fists Shattering Ten Thousand Enemies], holding the pass alone and slaying gods on the battlefield!

And more...

Many years later, Shen Lian steps atop countless bones to reach the pinnacle of the world, looking down upon the scarred multitudes below.

"I spent my whole life walking on thin ice. It was all thanks to diligence rewarded by Heaven!"
