I Inherit the Dead's Day

1. A modern city forty years after the revival of martial arts; all cities, institutions, enterprises, and characters are fictional and do not correspond to any real place names or organizations. Martial artist ranks use a nine-dan system, with ranks uniformly assessed and registered by the Martial Arts Affairs Bureau; rank does not equal social status. Below third dan is the popularization tier, fourth to sixth dan is the professional tier, and seventh dan and above is the scarce tier—fewer than two hundred registered martial artists of seventh dan and above in the entire city. 2. A corpse-clearing worker deemed to have severed talent can inherit the opponent's final day of practical combat experience when legally exposed to a martial artist's corpse. Each time he uses the ability, he simultaneously loses a piece of evidence that could close a case and leaves another death moment on his own body. With this thorny skill, he earns money, gets a permanent position, saves his younger sister, and also closes in on the death of his father eight years ago, which was ruled a training accident. Genre: male-oriented urban high martial arts, career growth, light suspense. Corpse-clearing scenes and the arena are the main body; suspense serves character choices; not written as a citywide conspiracy, infinite leveling, or cultivation manual. All cities, institutions, enterprises, and characters are fictional. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: I Inherit the Dead's Day — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
