Rising Souls: Martial Awakening
Strength rules the world, but not everyone seeks it for the same reason. Once a year, the Heavens Gauntlet opens. Chosen individuals from across the world are summoned and transmigrated into another world through the Citadel of God, where a brutal sequence of trials awaits.
Those who endure earn the title of Martial Artist, elite warriors tasked with protecting humanity, exploring forbidden territories, and confronting threats beyond the limits of ordinary people. Failure means death in most cases while survival means stepping into a world far larger and more dangerous than anyone imagined.
Lin Feng comes from the low-ranking yet stubbornly proud Lin Clan. She isn’t a prodigy, nor was she born with noble blood or overwhelming talent. What she does have is endless energy, a reckless grin, and a refusal to back down, no matter how strong her opponent might be. Loud, cheerful, and often underestimated, Lin Feng has spent her entire life training for the Gauntlet, driven by a simple desire to grow stronger and see how far her fists can take her.
Within the Heavens Gauntlet, the trials are all about adaptability, creativity, and emotional resolve. Alliances can form and shatter and rivals can become friends, and friends become enemies. Each challenge forces Lin Feng to confront new martial arts, strange abilities, and the unsettling truth that not all dangers comes from monsters, but people just like her.
As Lin Feng climbs higher and higher, the world opens wider as she makes new friends and learns new things. Hidden techniques, ancient fighting styles, and unexplored lands await those brave enough to chase them.
This is a story about discovering strength, purpose, and what it truly means to keep moving forward, even when the world tries to break you.
