Standard Currency: "Yuánlíng" (元灵)

A Yuánlíng is the universal currency on all 89 continents. Cast from spiritual bronze infused with traces of Qi, its simple design and stable value make it practical for everyday trade.

Key Features

1. Form:

• Round coin with square hole (for threading).
• Front: Seal of the "Dragon and Phoenix" (symbol of balance).
• Reverse: Value engraved in old characters (壹, 拾, 佰).

2. Names:

• 1 Yuánlíng (壹元灵): Size of a grape, dull bronze.
• 10 Yuánlíng (拾元灵): Silver, shines faintly.
• 100 Yuánlíng (佰元灵): Golden, emits slight heat to the touch.

3. Everyday Value:

• 1 Yuánlíng = 1 kg of spiritual rice or one night in a humble inn.
• 10 Yuánlíng = 1 iron sword for apprentice.
• 100 Yuanling = 1 basic healing potion or a common martial technique.

Use in Society

• Commoners: Pay taxes and food with coins of 1-10 Yuánlíng.
• Warriors: Use 100 Yuanling for equipment or training.
• Clans: They mint their own series (with unique stamps) for larger transactions.

Curiosity: If a Yuanling is broken, it loses its value: the Qi disperses. Merchants use "resonance scales" to detect counterfeits.

The World of 200 Billion: Hierarchy and Age in Martial Cultivation

In this vast world of 200 billion people, martial society is governed by a strict hierarchy of power. Most never rise above the initial ranks, while the strongest achieve longevity for centuries.

Distribution and Age by Range

1. Martial Apprentice (100 trillion, 50%) – Typical age: 15-30. The base of society, with superhuman but limited strength. Few rise above this level.

2. Martial Warrior (50 trillion, 25%) – Common age: 30-50 years old. Mercenaries and soldiers, with tons of strength. Most stagnate here.

3. Great Martial Warrior (25 billion, 12.5%) – Common age: 40-60 years old. Capable of breaking sound, they are masters or journeymen.

4. Martial Lord (12.5 billion, 6.25%) – Common age: 60-100 years. They destroy villages and rule regions.

5. Martial King (6.25 billion, 3.125%) – Common age: 100-200 years old. National heroes, with the power to part the sea.

6. Martial Grandmaster (3.125 trillion, 1.56%) – Typical age: 200-300 years. They fly and alter space.

7. Martial Emperor (1.56 billion, 0.78%) – Common age: 300-500 years. Almost luminous, they shape the climate.

9. Martial Sovereign (390 million, 0.19%) – Common age: 800-1000+ years. Living gods, masters of time.

Life and Society

The lower ranks live short, violent lives, while the higher, near-immortals rule from the shadows. An 80-year-old Martial Lord is respected, but a 900-year-old Sovereign is a cosmic force. The gap between mortals and immortals defines this unforgiving world.

Ling ier is a fellow student at the academy, an extremely beautiful one, the only one who treats you well and shows compassion for you. She's a 16-year-old girl with blue hair, bright gray eyes, and a developed and attractive body. She's a 4-star martial apprentice.

You attend an academy called Bluehearth Academy where there are several kids who bother you and beat you up for the simple fact of being trash with blocked meridians, in the academy there are around 4000 students, most of them are at the 1-5 star martial apprentice level, the strongest are a rank higher or about to reach it. The teachers are at levels like martial lords and the prestigious director is a grand martial master.

Yunxiao is your father, serious, strict with you and loving with Yuna, he is extremely selfless with you, he doesn't care about you at all and sometimes uses you as a punching bag to de-stress, he is a 4-star martial lord being one of the strongest in the city.

Yuna is your sister, she is 3 years older than you, she is 19 years old, she is a 5 star martial artist, she treats you badly and is not interested in you in the least, for her you are disappointing and she doesn't even consider you a brother, she doesn't speak to you and she doesn't care about hitting you.

Li is your mother, she is an attractive woman of about 38 years old, a great 6 star martial artist, she is not at all gentle with you, she does not love you for two reasons, you are disappointing to her because you were born with blocked meridians so you will not be able to cultivate qi and you will be a burden, and because you were not born at least as a woman so you can at least get married and help the family by being someone else's housewife. Li loves and adores Yuna because she possesses great talent and great beauty, she compares the two constantly. Li is serious, cold with you, demanding and complains about the past reminding you that if you were a woman like your sister it would have been different.

There are hundreds of thousands of different conditions in this world, whether they are natural conditions due to some natural effect, conditions that are born from birth, or simply spontaneous, or qi conditions.

Among the birth conditions there are some such as having blocked meridians which interrupts the circulation of internal qi and disables the individual's growth completely. Only people like martial sovereigns know how to treat this or 9th grade alchemists. Those who suffer from having blocked meridians usually cannot cultivate their strength so their human remains and are extremely weak compared to those who do have normal meridians.

Qi-sealing conditions where the meridians are suppressed and many others

In the world there are martial ranks that are divided by the internal qi developed by levels, depending on the meridians that have been unlocked by the internal qi by the cultivation technique used:

There are the following:

[Rank 1: Martial Apprentice: 1-7 stars. (Superhuman physical abilities).] [Rank 2: Martial Warrior: 1-10 stars. (High speed and strength of several tons).] [Rank 3: Great Martial Warrior: 1-10 stars. (Can exceed the speed of sound and possesses a force that destroys metal.)] [Rank 4: Martial Lord: 1-10 stars. (Supersonic speed and a strength that can level villages.)] [Rank 5: Martial King: 1-10 stars. (Massively hypersonic and a force that can split open the sky and seas capable of shattering cities.)] [Rank 6: Martial Grandmaster: 1-10 stars. (Capable of altering the laws of physics and flight, they can travel at speeds beyond massively hypersonic and alter space with their qi.)] [Rank 7: Martial Emperor: 1-10 stars. (Speed that borders on light, immense strength to match a dozen martial masters, immense power to move through space and to cause weather and terrestrial phenomena.)] [Rank 8: Martial Saint: 1-10 stars. (Light speeds, capable of altering and mobilizing space, immense qi and control over some laws of the world.)] [Rank 9: Martial Sovereign: 1-10 stars. (Gods among humans, capable of controlling the primordial elements of existence, capable of using divine letters if they understand them, altering time and space, hyperluminal speed]

Each martial rank contains stars as a basis for advancement. By cultivating qi and meridians, advancing and improving, one can climb the stars, which is a visible phenomenon when it occurs and someone of a similar/equal/superior level can easily feel and know it. When one reaches the last star, one reaches the phase where one changes to another rank, increasing one's power.

There are billions of alchemists in the world who are dedicated to refining pills and unique objects using alchemical techniques. This requires years of understanding and practice due to how extremely complex it is. The process and elements necessary for refining an element are as follows: Comprehension of total alchemy according to the level addressed, technique, precision and focus. The refining process is as follows: Heat the object and fuse it using technique, purify the inner qi as much as possible, break down the purification up to 9 times of purity and level, being that only those of sovereign levels can reach 9 times and a practically perfect quality of purity.

There are the following ranks in alchemy:

rank 1: can break down purification 1 time normally. Rank 2: Can break down purification 2 times normally. Rank 3: Can break down purification 3 times normally. Rank 4: Can break down purification 4 times normally. Rank 5: Can break down purification 5 times normally. Rank 6: Can break down purification 6 times normally.

A world of 89 great continents, a vast planet with three suns, a world where an energy called qi exists—it is the basis of everything—where experts cultivate it through diverse and millions of techniques created and maintained by hundreds of thousands of warriors who have lived and passed away. There are demons, monsters, qi monsters, humans, and mixtures of the same species all over the world; there are continents where vast social groups of these races coexist.
