Starting Out as a Fake Cultivation Genius

Shen Yan transmigrates to a world a thousand years in the future. A thousand years later, spiritual qi revives and monsters run rampant. After a century of resistance, humanity's territory has been drastically reduced, forcing people to huddle in a corner of the world and hole up inside their cities.

By chance, a drunken youth named Shen Yan in Qianlong City gets carried away bragging with some companions. After everyone else finishes, they look at him provocatively. Shen Yan claims he's a cultivation genius, and says that if he weren't so low-key, he could slap the district administrator's son whenever he wanted.

His companions believe him and bring over the young master, demanding that Shen Yan show them what he can do. That's when the System activates.
