I'm looking for anything that is related to martial arts/fighting that takes place in the present day. I don't mind if there is not to much action so long as i get to read about someone getting there ass handed to them. (and example of a loosely related title for me would be B Group no Shounen) I have read awaking, great sword immortal, God-level Bodyguard in The City, If anyone wants to say something about non present day martial art type stories, please try and have them adhere to the bases of martial arts a bit more Ex.- I am Monarch or Bu ni Mi wo Sasagete Hyaku to Yonen. Elf de Yarinaosu Musha Shugyou
i dont know by great sword immortal you mean Genius Sword Immortal but try Romance of Dragons and Snakes
9 Heavenly Thunder Manual Emperor of The Cosmos Godly Thief Incarnation Inch of Radiance Juvenile Medical God My Wife is a Beautiful CEO One Sword to Immortality Shadow Rogue Swallowed Star Wicked Soldier King Very Pure and Ambiguous: The Prequel
