Cultivation: I Have a Proficiency Panel

Xu Fangheng starts out with nothing but a flatbread made from mixed grains. What could be scarier than the supernatural? The curse of poverty!

To survive, he earns a living by painting memorial portraits of the deceased for a family haunted by ghosts, and awakens a proficiency panel that rewards painstaking practice.

Every skill demands sweat, time, and... his life, along with a bit of elusive luck, to grind away at it!

To avoid being mistaken for a ghost and burned alive, Xu Fangheng, who has no talent for painting, grinds away just to stay alive.
