Martial Arts Secret Realm: Only I Can Know the Plot?

In the 53rd year of the New Year calendar, the genetic martial arts of the Bald Eagle Empire rose rapidly, and China, which had always been regarded as the leader of martial arts, lost its individual championship title in the World Dragon Tiger Arena for the first time.

In the 55th year of the new calendar, the anti-China alliance, led by the Bald Eagle Empire and composed of various countries, successfully blocked the Chinese delegation from both the individual and team competitions from reaching the top eight.

Faced with such humiliation and the indignation within the country, some top-ranked martial arts masters were dissatisfied with the monopoly of high-level martial arts by martial arts families and clans, and they also looked down on the fancy but ineffective techniques taught in martial arts schools. They wanted to establish underground martial arts schools to cultivate a group of true "martial artists" with the aim of practical combat ability.

In the 60th year of the Chinese calendar, after a brief period of decline, the Martial Arts Alliance, spearheaded by three factions and four religions, briefly regained its former glory in world competitions through cooperation. Meanwhile, the excessively brutal training practices of underground martial arts schools sparked widespread public discontent and strong demands for their abolition.

Tie Fusheng, a top-ranked martial arts master known as "Madman" and the initiator of the underground martial arts school, was willing to fight against the Martial Alliance in order to continue his training program. He was wanted by the Martial Alliance, and the underground martial arts school went completely underground and was known as "Dark Martial Arts School".

Under the deliberate propaganda of the Martial Alliance, the [Dark Martial Arts School] has almost become a criminal organization. The children there are required to undergo hellish and brutal training. The practical training is either dead or injured, and the physical body and martial arts essence are overdrawn. The graduates are all cold-blooded killers who serve the criminal organization. The public has become so disgusted by the mention of the dark side that the [Dark Martial Arts School] can hardly rely on normal channels to recruit students.

In the 63rd year of the New Year calendar, Wen Zhanye, born in the Dark Martial Arts School, fought five bloody battles after the entire Chinese delegation was wiped out, leaving him as the only one left in the top 32. He defeated his opponents and marched all the way north to win the championship. When he won, he was almost unrecognizable from head to toe. He was hailed as the strongest man in China who could break through stubborn rocks with an iron will.

The living conditions of the Dark Martial Arts Academy have been greatly improved, and the Martial Alliance has also compromised with it, allowing it to select students from orphans who voluntarily join after becoming criminals, as well as prisoners of appropriate age.

Sun Fan opened his eyes.

Instead of the darkness or nothingness I had expected, I saw a yellowish metal fence.

He lay on a hard board bed, beneath a rough linen sheet, the air thick with a strange stench of sweat and a faint smell of blood. He could hear suppressed breathing, painful groans, and distant, faint roars.

"Awake? You're really lucky. Looks like a passing teacher made Yan Gaojiang hesitate and back down."

Sun Fan looked at the person speaking in front of him. He had long hair, a thick beard, and a grotesque, slanted scar across his face.

In my previous life, people would have believed I was a fugitive in my forties.

Memories of a past life began to flood my mind.

Its predecessor was also called Sun Fan.

He originally had a family background that others envied. Both his parents were martial artists, and he had no worries about food and clothing. He was the "model child" from a young age, excelling in both academics and martial arts. Under his father's guidance, he successfully trained his body during his three years of junior high school and became a martial artist.

But then a sudden change occurred...

His parents disappeared, and when he stood up for them, he was framed and inexplicably imprisoned. Then, he accepted the advice of someone who claimed to be a close friend of his parents and voluntarily filled out an application form to go to a dark martial arts school.

The lawyer said that as long as he entered the Dark Martial Arts School, all past transgressions would be forgiven, and if he performed well in the three years of martial arts training, he would still have the opportunity to enter the Advanced Martial Arts University.

As a locally renowned genius, he was originally quite confident in his abilities.

Little did he know that his self-righteous diligence was laughable in the eyes of a group of desperados.

Not to mention his lack of practical combat experience, which makes him almost the weakest among his peers.

He was eventually killed in a conflict by Yan Gaojiang, the squad leader of the Eighth Training Class, during a sparring match.

The martial arts competitions at the Dark Martial Arts School are meant to determine both skill and life or death.

A slight mortality rate is perfectly normal. As long as it's not too obvious or deliberate, teachers generally won't interfere.

Seeing Sun Fan sitting on the bed without speaking for a long time, Scarface asked again, "What are your plans after this?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Fan also frowned.

The current situation can truly be described as a hellish start.

Beset by internal and external troubles, the body he transmigrated into is riddled with injuries and illnesses, and countless eyes are secretly watching him from the outside.

Even though he was a complete novice in the past, before he died, he vaguely sensed that there was an invisible hand in the dark, seemingly targeting him.

The more "accidental" everything seems, the more alarming it becomes.

Fortunately, his military career in his previous life instilled in him the habit of calmly thinking and formulating battle plans when facing difficulties.

After a moment's thought, Sun Fan coldly said, "I want to enter the secret realm."

In the darkness, the scarred man, his eyes narrowed and scrutinizing, widened his gaze upon hearing these words.

"Are you looking to die?"

"The secret realm here is not like those newbie secret realms outside that have been repeatedly tested and are like children playing house."

"Even if you weren't injured, with your current strength, your survival rate is probably no more than 70%, given your current condition."

At this point, Scarface paused, seemingly calculating the probability of survival in his mind.

"Ten deaths without chance of survival"

Sun Fan never expected that the fierce-looking young man in front of him was actually a person who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He could feel the dissuasion and goodwill hidden beneath the other party's cold words.

However, after merging with his predecessor's memories, he discovered that his only way out was the secret realm.

Secret realms are a unique product of this world.

Some people call them "the lost world".

There, one could find everything people longed for: martial arts, elixirs, divine weapons, and secret treasures.

There are also different crises.

Each person will be given a main quest and some side quests to explore, depending on their strength when entering the secret realm.

Once completed, you will receive varying amounts of mission points.

Quest points cannot be traded, but the treasures and manuals that can be obtained from the same secret realm can be traded.

It's worth mentioning that, in order to prevent skilled players from intentionally injuring themselves to lower their dungeon rating and obtain easier tasks, measures have been taken.

For martial artists whose strength has been diminished due to injury, the mission assessment in the secret realm will still be based on their peak strength.

Therefore, not entering secret realms when injured has almost become a code of conduct for martial artists.

Sun Fan's confidence in entering the secret realm stems from a very bold guess he has based on his predecessor's memories.

This speculation has been raised by many people on the martial arts forum.

Many of these hidden realms are actually connected.

Or rather, all of them together represent a part of the past of the old world.

Countless strategy enthusiasts are obsessed with uncovering the stories of the world.

They could never have imagined that these stories already existed in one person's mind.

Sun Fan, an extraterrestrial visitor, is a martial arts enthusiast.
