Chapter 123 — Dropped into Murim with an Instant Kill Skill

Chapter 123

Yeon So-wol reflects on the outcomes of the martial arts tournament. So Hye, though only seventeen and a mid first-rate artist, successfully entered the 108 contenders despite failing to reach the Thirty-Six Heroes. Jin Geol, having avoided the tournament by spreading rumors, is noted as safe. Yeon So-wol tracks the progress of three companions: Namgung Ujin, Hwangbo Hwi, and Won Huiseung. Namgung Ujin defeats strong and weak opponents to secure a Twelve Earthly Branches spot. Won Huiseung initially falls to a peak-realm opponent but is devastated until a repechage opportunity arises after Moyong Ha withdraws; Won Huiseung claims the vacant spot through a series of victories. Hwangbo Hwi also succeeds. Yeon So-wol, satisfied that all his friends survived, steps onto the final platform. The crowd, initially mocking the losers and celebrating lineage-based advantages, falls silent at his arrival. Yeon So-wol addresses the 377 eliminated martial artists, praising their specific techniques and honoring their life-long dedication, reframing their elimination as a source of glory for the winners rather than shame. He extends a formal salute to the eliminated contestants, who rise and return the respect. Yeon So-wol feels a reciprocal gift of gratitude, realizing his actions have restored dignity to the Jianghu. As he reflects on his friend Ha, he looks up to see Moyong Ha perched atop a basin overlooking the platform, swinging her legs and transmitting a jokingly appreciative comment. They exchange smiles across the crowd, ending the chapter on a note of mutual understanding and relief.
