Lightning Degree

Lightning Degree is an action-packed martial arts manhwa that follows the hilarious yet brilliant journey of Ryuyeon, a carefree young man who becomes a force of chaos in the world of Murim. The story blends comedy, martial-arts mastery, and academy life into a fast-paced and entertaining adventure that quickly became a fan favorite.

The manhwa begins with Ryuyeon living a quiet life with his master. After his master’s tragic death, he sets out on a journey to honor his memory. Despite his goofy behavior and laid-back personality, Ryuyeon possesses exceptional martial talent — talent so ridiculous that even elite warriors struggle to understand him. His strength, speed, and ability to copy techniques put him far above everyone around him, even though he rarely takes things seriously.

When Ryuyeon joins a prestigious martial arts academy, the story shifts into a mix of academy rivalry, intense training, and nonstop comedic moments. His unpredictable personality constantly disrupts traditions and irritates the arrogant nobles who look down on commoners. Yet his skill forces everyone to acknowledge him, whether they like it or not.

One of the charms of Lightning Degree is its balance between humor and action. Ryuyeon’s carefree attitude hides deep emotional scars, adding depth to his character. He forms unexpected friendships with other students, challenges corrupt authority figures, and exposes hidden schemes within the academy—all while looking like he’s barely trying.

The world-building is rich with Murim clans, martial arts sects, political conflict, and unique cultivation methods. Each arc introduces stronger enemies and higher stakes, pushing Ryuyeon into situations where his true power shines. The manhwa also features impressive fight choreography, vivid artwork, and expressive comedic panels that enhance both the humor and action.

Readers love Lightning Degree because it offers something fresh in the martial arts genre. Instead of a typical serious cultivator, we get a chaotic genius who doesn’t care about rules but still destroys every obstacle in his path. Whether it’s duels, exams, missions, or confrontations with powerful clans, Ryuyeon handles everything with ease — and often with a smile.

Overall, Lightning Degree is a must-read for fans of Murim stories, martial arts adventures, and comedic geniuses with overwhelming talent. With its fun characters, exciting battles, and well-paced storytelling, the manhwa delivers entertainment from start to finish.
