What is martial arts? Martial Arts has nothing to do with musical instruments, chess, calligraphy, painting, treasures or secret manuals, nor is there so much talk about being the best in the world. Martial Arts is a technique, a method that gives the weak a chance to draw their blades against the strong. What is chivalry (xiá)? Chivalry is not about romantic affairs, traditional culture, or being gentle, respectful, frugal, and compliant. Chivalry is violence, it's the bayonet forged by those driven to Mount Liang to use against tyrants. Cao Mo pledged with a dagger, (Returning to) Lu to invade. Zhuan Zhu entered with grilled meat, (Pacifying) Wu to usurp the throne. Brother Zhang cried in the market, avenging his lord by defiling a lavatory. Suicide by cutting one's own throat to seek justice, acting while concealing his sleeve. The tyrant of Qin seized souls, the coward gained courage. This is a martial artist's story.

In a dystopian future, humanity is no longer measured by potential but by profitability. Every person is a commodity, their worth dictated by a Stock Value Index (SVI)—a number derived from genetic profiling, productivity assessments, and behavioral analytics. The Human Stock Market determines everything: careers, relationships, even who is allowed to exist. A powerful Board of Directors governs this system, ensuring that each individual maximizes their returns for society’s elite investors. The wealthy high-value stocks enjoy unlimited freedom, while the low-value underclass is strictly managed to prevent waste. But a radical activist group, The Nullifiers, sees this for what it truly is—enslavement. In a final, desperate act, they launch an unprecedented cyberattack, permanently severing 90% of the population from the market. The system collapses overnight. No numbers. No control. No order. What was once a meticulously structured society crumbles into chaos. Without the centralized infrastructure that governed every aspect of life, cities decay, economies collapse, and people turn on one another. Now, in a world where survival replaces status, former elites and outcasts alike must learn to navigate a brutal new existence—one where humanity itself is the only currency left.
