Can I Really Tough It Out Until I Become an Immortal Emperor?

[Lighthearted comedy, male-oriented, System, everyday cultivation, one female lead]

Chen Chen is the Qingyun Sect's most “low-key” outer disciple. He'd planned to coast through life, but fate had other ideas!

At the tournament, his opponent trips and falls on his own. The crowd is stunned: “An invisible sword intent!”

He casually tosses out a few perfunctory remarks, and the elders nod and sigh: “The Great Dao is simplicity itself!”

He idly flips through a book in the Scripture Pavilion, and a complete cultivation manual falls right into his hands. Everyone bows in reverence: “The Mandate of Heaven has chosen him!”

As the misunderstandings grow more and more ridiculous, Chen Chen initially refuses to play along: “Don't get the wrong idea! I'm an ordinary person!”

Later, he gradually accepts it: “Forget it. Think whatever you want...”

Later still, a true powerhouse crushes him with a single palm, leaving him on the brink of death. Suddenly, he has an epiphany: “Wait! I'm actually way too weak!”

So the System gets serious, and so does he.

He goes from a “misunderstood big shot” to a “genuine peerless prodigy,” and from the sect's “mascot” to the “center of the storm.” While everyone continues to misunderstand him, he realizes that, without even noticing, he has already reached the pinnacle of the cultivation world...

He gazes at his cultivation level and stays silent for a long while. At last, he slowly speaks:

“Weren't we supposed to keep a low profile?!”
