That's How Fighting Is

Synopsis

Lin Feng is the savior of humanity who has fundamentally altered the way the world perceives and engages in combat. Now navigating life at the Imperial University, he deals with the chaotic and often absurd consequences of his own unconventional fighting philosophies. This novel reads like a slice-of-life urban fantasy, heavily leaning into the eccentric genius trope and absurdist comedy. It is perfect for readers who enjoy low-stakes daily interactions and a protagonist who disrupts societal norms with a wink and a nod. Conversely, those searching for a fast-paced plot or intense, high-stakes action should skip this title. The pacing is intentionally slow, prioritizing character-driven humor and the satirical deconstruction of combat over traditional progression. The standout quality is the imaginative way the story treats the distortion of fighting, turning what should be a serious skill into a source of constant comedic friction.
