[Historical What-If] + [Light Cultivation] + [A Touch of Social Mystery] + [No Harem, Light Pure Romance] + [A Nearly Realistic Map]
A graduate student in the humanities transmigrates into Liu Ji, also known as Liu Bowen, in a parallel world set during the Yuan dynasty. Starting from the lowest-level imperial examination, he steadily builds up his strength and rises through the ranks.
The You Kingdom is roughly equivalent to the Yuan dynasty; the Lu people are roughly equivalent to the Han Chinese.
When dynasties are changing, it’s impossible to simply roam the martial world and court with carefree abandon. But you can always unlock [Talents] and [Skills], and you can always encounter [Fateful Opportunities], [Good Partners] and [Great Friends]. So he’s a protagonist through and through.
The title alone makes it clear this is a slow-paced story. I’ll post updates from time to time once I’ve cleared my head and gotten back into the right frame of mind.
Getting better.
