Give This World a Little Honkai: Star Rail Shock

In a parallel world of the future, the promised common prosperity never came to pass. The gap between rich and poor grew to extremes. Humanity had conquered the entire galaxy, yet class barriers still divided people, splitting the unified world into a rigid hierarchy and two distinct tiers.

The upper-class Starfolk, as they called themselves, built “gladiatorial arenas” for their amusement, imitating the ancient world. The despised Dustfolk below had no choice but to take part just to make a living.

Our protagonist, Xi Ming, transmigrates from the prosperous, democratic, and beautiful present-day Dragon Kingdom. Armed with a System, he rises from humble beginnings and eventually looks down upon the sea of stars.
