Act III: World Ender

Framed for murder and sentenced to life, Tang Zhu discovers a brutal truth: in this new era where even animals can evolve into spirit beasts, ordinary humans have become less than livestock. Powerless and imprisoned, he's told to accept his fate—or risk not seeing another day. But when society itself becomes the cage and justice is reserved only for the strong, how long can the innocent survive at the bottom? In a world where might makes right, Tang Zhu must decide: submit to a living death, or fight back against the system that discarded him.
