Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: The World Enters the Era of High Martial Arts, The Legend of Su Chen and Meng Yao Begins

Daxia Kingdom, Linjiang City

Lijiang First University

In the early morning, the rising sun shone on the magnificent playground of this academy.

There were many boys and girls on the playground, but at this moment, a boy stood bewildered on a wooded path, scratching his head in confusion while curiously observing his surroundings.

Just then, many students happened to pass by him, and voices immediately sounded.

"I was wondering who it was? Turns out it's Su Chen, the loser. He must be depressed about being soon asked to leave the academy."

"Yeah, this loser failed to meet the potential test standard twice in a row. How does he even have the face to stay here..."

"I heard he's a childhood friend of the goddess Meng Yao. I wonder what Meng Yao saw in him back then?"

"Can't be true... Sister Meng Yao is a genius with an S-level potential. She's the only one in the entire academy with that potential. How could she have any connection with Su Chen, this loser?"

"Exactly... I've heard Sister Meng Yao has now passed the Martial Artist assessment and become a true Martial Artist. Her future achievements will at least be as a Martial King, and she might even become a Grandmaster. A loser like Su Chen can't even touch the soles of my goddess's feet..."

...

Listening to the mocking and ridiculing around him, Su Chen didn't feel sad; his handsome and delicate face showed only deep confusion and bewilderment.

What the...? What's going on here?

Wasn't I just dominating in the canyon?

How did I inexplicably cross over?

Su Chen furrowed his brow, trying hard to digest the unfamiliar memories in his mind that didn't belong to him.

It turns out that this person had the same name as him, also called Su Chen.

But this world was quite different from the previous one.

Su Chen couldn't help but look around.

Although this seemed like a university campus with tall dormitories, a library, a cafeteria, and a playground, the atmosphere around was completely different from the universities of his past life.

"It seems like it's after school, maybe I should go to an internet café."

Su Chen found that relying solely on the memories in the original body's mind was not enough to truly understand this world, so he directly ran to the nearest internet café near the academy and turned on a machine.

Sitting in front of the computer, Su Chen opened the browser, searched for various content, and only then did he have a rough understanding of this world.

This is a parallel world somewhat similar to his previous life, where he is now in Linjiang City of Xia Country, a country with a long history of thousands of years. But unlike the country from his previous life, this country has developed not only technology but also the profession of Martial Artists.

It should be noted that not only Xia Country, but all the countries on this planet known as Blue Star Five regard martial arts as important as science.

"It seems that the genes possessed by people in this world are different from those in my past world, or maybe the special environment of this planet... The creatures here are really strong..."

At this moment, Su Chen had his eyes wide open, as he saw records on the internet about those powerful Martial Artists.

In 2606, a large airliner flying from Linjiang City to the Imperial Capital crashed in mid-air after colliding with a mountain. The War God Wang Feng, disregarding his own danger, leapt from Bibo Building and used his strength to hold up the large airliner, flying in the air for 20 minutes before landing, saving 521 passengers on board.

In 2613, a crack occurred in Luokong Bridge amidst crowded traffic due to engineering quality issues. Fortunately, the War God Ma Gang was amidst the traffic and used his strength to hold up the thousands of tons heavy bridge, allowing all vehicles to pass safely.

In 2615, the suburbs of Linjiang City were attacked by a fourth-level monster, causing a raging fire. Grandmaster Cui Xiaokang consecutively rescued 80 people, finally extinguished the flames, and successfully killed the fourth-level monster.

......

Such information was abundant online, but the strongest seems to be someone known as the Invincible War God. In 2619, this individual used his body to block a meteor from outer space for humanity. According to scientists, the power of that meteor was equivalent to thousands of nuclear bomb explosions.

As a result, that Invincible War God also vanished from this planet forever.

In other words, on that day, human civilization nearly faced destruction.

"I see..."

After walking out of the internet café and looking at the city's familiar yet unfamiliar buildings, Su Chen already had a profound understanding of this world.

It turns out that in this world, martial arts hold the same status as science, and students start learning martial arts from a young age. In high school, there is even a division into martial arts, humanities, and science subjects.

In this world, powerful Martial Artists and scientists alike can make great contributions to the nation, and they can protect the country and the entire human civilization.

Lijiang First University, where Su Chen is, is one of the best martial arts universities in Linjiang City.
