1 Survival of the fittest (introduction)

In a world filled with danger where only power can decide everything. The great clans of the martial world where at the brink of war to gain influence, riches and martial techniques.

Minor clans in contrary to the great clans where much more tranquil,Managing their farms and villages.

but some of the minor clans where gathering forces to go and assist some of the great clans in their struggle for power.

In the peaceful village of Yibin, managed by the minor Chu clan. A robust twelve year old boy was working in the farm collecting potatoes from the ground. "little Zhang you have worked enough for today, come and collect your payment." said the old man.

Hearing this Zhang had a little smile on his face. Jumping from excitement he walked towards the old man. "here Zhang take these 4 coins of silver" taking the coins in his hand Zhang was a little bit confused "old man why did you give me so much coins? I only worked 10 hours".

"Little Zhang the times are getting troubled the clan head is preparing to help the major clans in their upcoming war against the major clans of the evil faction. I gave you these coins so that you can eat properly tonight as everything could happen from now on. "

Hearing this Zhang could not help but feel agitated. What if the evil faction attacked the village?! It would be terrible." Thank you old man. See you tommorow. " hiding his worry and leaving the farm, Zhang made his way home.

Arriving at the outskirts of the village, Zhang made his way to the little shack near the river.

"It is good to be home." After having transmigrated from earth after his sudden death Zhang lived in here as an orphan. His parents were killed 12 years ago during the great war of clans opposing the just against the evil.

They were massacred by martial artists. He was found and brought here by Lady Zhou, a nice and kindhearted woman. She past away when Zhang was seven years old since then he was alone.

After eating his food it was time to go to bed but his peaceful sleep was soon perturbed by the sound of metal and screams. "The village is under attack!" hearing the guard shout Zhang knew what was happening, putting his clothes on and placing his money and bread in a bag he then armed himself with a hunting knife.

Zhang stormed outside his shack looking in the direction of the village he only saw smoke and fire.

Also there were dozens of black clothed men storming the village.

Zhang knew that he had to run. There was no way he could fight those martial artists "Shit! I have to run sorry sorry SORRY!" Running towards the river he began crossing it.

After having crossed, he began to run as fast as he could towards the forest. After running hours without stopping Zhang fainted on the ground with only one taught, that he was a coward, a person that let hundreds of villagers get massacred.

Waking up in the middle of bushes, trees and the noises of animals Zhang was desperate. Holding on his knife he began to walk and search for a place where he could be safe. Thirthy minutes later he found a cave and began eating the remaining bread that was in his bag. " I need to find a nearby village or I might die."
