Beast Taming or Cultivation?

Is this the cycle of fate, or a foregone conclusion?

An invader with a System? Allow me to grant you your fated death.

The countless opportunities that come Wu Shiming's way seem like foregone conclusions amid this vast game of chess, yet at the same time, they seem full of surprises.

With fate pulling the strings, the pawns are the ones moving the players.

Everyone thinks Wu Shiming is a penniless rogue cultivator with no powerful backing.

That is, until his secret identities are exposed one after another.

On his first day at the academy,

he kills a third-rank prodigy with a single move.

The result: Li Bowen is put in solitary confinement, and the Confucian Sage Academy is humiliated.

Everyone: “This new student is pretty fierce!”

At the Royal Martial Arts Tournament,

he uses an artifact to transform into the white-robed immortal maiden “Xi Yueyao.”

The result: the Second Prince's right arm is crippled with one punch, and the Crown Prince is beaten into depression.

Everyone: “The One-Punch Immortal Maiden is terrifying!”

When pursued by the World-Destroying Cult,

he summons the Black Dragon of Ashes.

The result: a fifth-rank venom lizard is burned to ash, and the cultists' soul seals turn on them.

A powerful immortal: “This boy cannot be allowed to live!”

Wu Shiming shrugs: “I just want to recover my lost memories. Do you really have to push me?”

When blacksmith Li Ba kills the immortal world's team leader with one swing of his hammer, and Ning Anran's phoenix-head hairpin suppresses the entire crowd,

the whole world asks: “Wait, you call this penniless rogue cultivator with no powerful backing?!”

Wu Shiming smiles faintly. “Sorry, all my backers are at the Sage Realm.”
