Something Is Off About My Cultivation System

After staying up all night writing his thesis, graduate student Lu Chen dies suddenly and transmigrates to a cultivation world.

The first thing he does after waking up is activate the System.

System: Ding! Binding successful... Loading... Loading failed... Error code 0x0000A

Lu Chen: ???

Other people's Systems: One-shot everything from the start, max out every level with one click, sweep all before them.

His System: The only lottery prize is "Better luck next time," the shop is empty, it crashes at critical moments, and it randomly plays a whistled version of "Two Tigers."

In front of the spirit-testing stone, he's forced to show off his talent, and the stone explodes.

In front of the clan leader, he's forced to demonstrate his comprehension, and accidentally guesses the hidden injury.

In the ruins, he's forced to reveal his brilliance, but all he's got is a silver tongue.

Lu Chen just wants to lie flat, but the System won't let him.

He wants to keep a low profile, but his strength won't allow it.

Until he meets someone in a black cloak.

You too?

...Wait, there are other transmigrators in this world besides me?

What secrets are hidden behind this suspicious System?
