Amid the turbulent twilight of the Qin Dynasty, corrupt court officials collude with rebels to tear the empire apart, while the Xiongnu lurk on the northern borders. Down-on-his-luck reclusive swordsman Lin Yan is dragged into the chaos and unexpectedly bonds with the newly emerged imperial exam list system, which grants him increasingly powerful swordsmanship with each completed exam question. Rising from obscurity, he tops the imperial exams, crushes rebellions, eliminates treacherous officials, defends the Qin, and uncovers the ancient conspiracy behind the list, finally becoming the sword saint who stabilizes the entire empire.
