The Human Giant

There is always the desire to be the strongest, the fastest, the smartest, and to reach the apex of everything. To some, they believe that talent determines everything. To others, hard work is more important. For many to reach the apex of any field a combination of talent, hard work, and determination is needed. In a world where powerful demons, unkillable immortals, and strange monsters ran amok. Where human lives were treated on the same level as ants. Yoze, a young man who had transmigrated from Earth to this dangerous world could only rely on his hard work, strong will, and his cheat, the Second Best System to that makeup for his lack of talent and resources. With his desire to improve his family's life and his ambition to surpass human limits, he set his eyes on passing the Scholar exam as he took his first step toward dominating the world. Whether it was humans, demons, monsters, immortals, or gods they all were within his sights and would soon become a stepping stone for his rise to excellence. "You are a genius of 1000 years. Okay, I'm a genius of 900 years. I'll surpass you in three years." "You are the most talented runner in the world. That's okay, I'm fine with being the second most talented runner but I bet I can surpass you in three months." "Having the most talent doesn't mean anything unless you use it. You are born with talent. I earned it. You are afraid of demons while I cherish seeing every demon." Yoze smiled as he looked at the nine-headed immortal under his feet. "I heard that Immortals can't die. Let's test that rumor." As Yoze advanced on his journey he slowly discovered that there was no supreme power system or logic that this strange world followed. Whether the Spiritual Energy that the demons monopolized, the Crystal Energy that could create entire worlds, or the Inner Vigor that humans held close to their hearts. Yoze was determined to become the master of them all!

Chapter 146: The Giant Scholar

Back at the New Swampscott City West gate, a long line of people had already turned hoping to be able to get into the city. Travelers, scholars, martial artists, and ordinary people had lined up all night to not lose their spots in line.

This was an ordinary sight to the guards at the West gate. At each gate were two guards who wore leather armor with the symbol of the City engraved on their chest plate and shoulders. 

As a high-paying job, many guards signed up were martial artists that had given up on reaching higher levels. Whether it was due to a lack of talent, not enough resources, or a simple unwillingness to keep up with the harsh training requirements numerous martial artists choose to simply give up.

Jack was one of the many guards who were ex-martial artists but unlike others, he didn't give up on training as a martial artist because he wanted to. He simply couldn't after losing his arm due to a battle with his rival.
