Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.In the era of popular esports, a globally popular game called “Destiny” was born.
This is a close-quarters holographic reality game with a focus on cold weapons such as swords, spears, guns, bows, and other melee weapons.
The charm of close combat, the interplay of flashing blades and shadows, the brutal battle where only one survives out of a hundred, captivate players and make the major world esports tournaments thrive.
Chen Xingran, a weapon master from an ancient martial arts family, wakes up from slumber and finds himself in a strange world, becoming an ordinary student at the Capital Esports Academy, endlessly worrying about how to reach Silver rank.
As he looks at the familiar Tang Sword, broadsword, silver spear, dagger, long whip, and more in the game… Chen Xingran falls into contemplation.
“I’m familiar with this.”
Thus, in “Destiny,” a formidable specialist in weapons emerges.
His swordsmanship is sharp and elusive, his heavy sword has no edge, his gun moves like a dragon, and his dagger is as agile as a serpent… No matter how challenging the weapon is, it becomes a magnificent and dangerous performance in his hands.
“A Tang Sword is not used like this.”
“Protecting teammates? Not necessary.”
“Isn’t it enough to eliminate all the enemies?”
…
In the world of “Destiny,” a legend begins to spread about a fearsome demon king.
It is said that every professional player who faces him in combat meets a tragic end…
However, the good news is that this demon king seems incapable of using ranged weapons?
His archery skills are astonishing. Even with a rapid-firing crossbow, he can’t hit a single shot, earning him the title of the “Master of Human Outline Drawing.”
Yang Yunchen, the former champion of the FPS World Championship and hailed as the number one marksman, says this while watching the young man who effortlessly takes on three opponents with a Tang Sword.
“Why need ranged weapons when I’m here?”
The blushing young man, finished with the fight and sharpening his sword, chases after him and slashes three blocks.
PS:
1. This is a fictional holographic close-quarters battle royale game with many imaginative elements. You don’t need to have played the game to enjoy the story.
2. Game skills and settings are inspired by games like “Eternal Punishment,” “Apex Legends,” “Overwatch,” and others.
3. The weapon master is invincible in close combat but terrible at using guns, while the archer never misses a shot. They pretend to be weak and rely on their spouse, the cunning world champion, to save them.
4. This story doesn’t follow the typical trope of the protagonist being overwhelmingly strong. There may be initial setbacks, but later on, the characters reach their full potential and dominate the game, creating various highlights. Please avoid making assumptions about the author and enjoy the story and comments harmoniously. Thank you.

TN:
Title: The phrase “磨刀不误砍菜弓[电竞]” in Chinese is an idiomatic expression commonly used in the context of eSports. It translates to “Sharpening the knife doesn’t delay the cutting of vegetables with the bow [eSports].”
This phrase is often used to emphasize the importance of preparation and practice in esports. It means that even though it is essential to hone your skills and improve your strategies, it should not hinder you from taking immediate action and engaging in competitive gaming. Just like sharpening a knife is necessary for efficient cutting, training and preparation are crucial in esports, but they should not become an excuse for procrastination or hesitation. It highlights the balance between preparation and execution in the world of competitive gaming.

A battle maniac who is an agressive player in the game but completely opposite out of the game.
The MC's reason why he's playing the game is aside from earning money and fighting in battles, he wants to fulfill the original owner's dream of becoming a professional player. It's pretty sweet of him that he respects the original's wish and doesn't simply do everything for his own gain because he has a new body.
While the MC can be considered OP, I think I got used to it after reading a lot of CN and KR novels so I just brushed it off.
To be honest, he may seem OP, but he has a lot of disadvantages since he never played professionally before and it's his first time encountering different game characters and skills. He adapts fast but he admits he can learn more. Plus, he sucks at long-range weapons and even ignored a crossbow right in front of him when it's the first weapon he sees in one of his games.
Honestly though, I already expected he's OP just from the tags so I don't have any room for complaints.
It's actually pretty realistic when he used it in real life and not in the game. His new body isn't ready for his skills so after a fight, he quickly felt tired and his body was aching. Plus, the OG's health is not good so another reason why he can't fight completely.
In the game, he can use all those skills without any problem since it's just virtual reality. But even then, he's not too perfect since he still has weaknesses.
Although in all honesty, I don't think the Thunder attack is realistic. The other moves are though.
The ML is so relatable with his addiction to eating chips. I never thought I'd ever like a male lead so this is the first.
While he seems like the typical cool and handsome guy at first glance, he actually has a gap moe that makes him funny the moment he's introduced.
He's pretty shameless once he's relaxed or is talking to a friend so don't completely trust his handsome face lmao.
I swear his mouth says the funniest sh*t sometimes. It surprised me so much that I wheezed like a tea kettle.
Poor Manager Fu.And unlike the MC, his weakness is melee and is teased a lot by his fans because of it. His first battle with MC was very cool and interesting.The side characters are not two dimensional either. They have their own personalities and goals.
I even understood You Hongwei, who I didn't like because if you look from his perspective, it does sound really bad and like the team is abandoning him. It still doesn't excuse his way of ignoring his captain in a game or threatening him though.
He's too confident in his skills but his inferiority complex, if you try to think about it, is understandable.
Manager Fu on the other hand is amusing in his own way. His introduction is him acting like a parent catching his child in the middle of stealing a cookie. MC likes him because he shares the same braincell with ML.
He came back from a surgery and was already very strong even though he should be resting.
He basically showed everyone that he's not cheating but after that, I personally feel that it kind of made the novel feel a bit boring since there's less suspense. It would've been great if he proved his strength in a professional match instead and they kept his real skills a secret until then.
Plus, whoever made the game is so dumb if they don't even know if he cheated or not. It's supposed to be an advanced game and technology yet they can't even determine if he's cheating? Not advanced enough, I guess.
