Resumen del Editor

In the modern world, qi is money.

The days of traveling martial artists and mountaintop masters are over. Power is controlled by corporations, modernized martial arts sects, and governments. Those at the bottom of society struggle as second-class citizens in a world in which power is a commodity.

Rick has attempted to separate himself from the world of cutthroat killers but is drawn in by a chance to participate in a contest at the highest levels. The resulting trials will take him across the world against many different opponents, but he knows that his sponsors ultimately just want to use him for their own profit. In the end, he'll need to decide what it is that he really wants....

Good stuff.

First... It's Baldree so narration is top notch. Series is great and well worth the cash or the credit. Moving on.

I want this story to continue. Not the story of the Luke kid at the very end, but Rick. He finally gets a hold on the Kettle and I really REALLY want to see that. There's a whole story line to chase down with Alger. Hopefully one day the author will go back to this world. I suppose I need to get on her socials and look around. She's probably talked about it or something.
Cons?... Eh... No real big ones. Rick's whole view of what it takes to get out of poverty was a bit ridiculous and juvenile. His Demon had the right of it.
The thing about getting out of poverty is how much you're willing to put to that goal. In our boring powerless world you HAVE to ignore drugs. From firsthand experience those are what will keep you there. From the time I was born to when I was 27 I never made one step outside my circumstances. Have the talent (artistically) but addiction just stole everything from me. Rick going through withdrawal was pretty gripping for me. Ragast even more. It wasn't until I was like... idk.. 29? 30? Wasn't till then that I was able to start finally keeping jobs... saving a little... NOT pawning everything. And none of that is our economic models fault. It was MY fault. Sure... it would have been easier if things are cheaper and all that... but our system allows that when it isn't abused and we are allowed to innovate without all the red tape and political interference. Hard core righties stagnate everything by making everything about their book... and hard core lefties stagnate everything by making it all about their cultish obsessive ideological hang-ups. Sensible is never in style. But hey ... look at me ranting. Lol. Just talking to myself, ranting into the void now.
Oh well... anyway... Book is worth it. Hope she continues it.

Appropriate ending!

This book was a satisfying completion of a lot of loose ends. I wouldn't mind another book or spin off though!

Hidden gem

False testimony is truly evil. All these fake reviews making junk 5 stars so I miss stuff like this. Too much “slice of life” for me but the third book has less and is my favorite- plus the cultivation system isn’t very interesting but her writing is good and there’s some decent humor. Also mc isn’t silly op like most in this genre

Still a great series

I loved the first book of the series, and the world that it created was unique. The second book moved from the underground fighting arena to the demon world, secret government agencies, and finally native American animal reserves. This book moved back to the original a bit, but instead of the fighting arena, it was more like the official Olympics or sporting competitions.
Overall I thought it was really good. It kept me entertain and coming back, and I burned thru the book in just a few days. I wish there was a little more about Luke's sister, but she was in there a played a part. I hope if there is another book in the series it really focus more on what she does with her life.
Overall, this was a great cultivation style book and I highly recommend it.

Perfect

Super Worth It

love this series. I hope get more from this world and I hope it is soon!

Rick steps back into the fighting arena!

What a completely satisfying trilogy... I'm so happy that I convinced myself to try out this new to me author... in part do to Travis Baldree's wonderful voice performance.
In this book Rick steps back into the fighting arena thinking that he's found the perfect Patreon and Contract. This time, to play in a world event called The Showdown. Eventually Rick faces harsh reality of what he's gotten into. And Rick knows that only he can dig his way out. But Rick also knows he's not alone as he's got the full backing of his family and friends.
You're gonna need to grab this action-driven trilogy to find out what happens because I'm not giving it away that's for you to find out. In this pedal-to-the-metal drive.

The ending before the prologue was great really enjoyed it.

To bad there isn’t a 4 book but at the same time, the 3 books stand well alone. The prologue gives off anime (kenichi) vibes.

Great world building

Really good world building. I loved the whole series and I want more. The series really grows on you and that was a great cliffhanger for the epilog

A satisfying Close to Rick's story!

This book really rounds out Rick's Journey! Yet I can't help but find myself hungry for more! I hope that she returns to this world she has created, there's still so much left to explore!
