Beyond the Ordinary: From Humble Professor to Federal Speaker

Also known as: In the Age of Transcendents, I Become a God by Picking Up Light Orbs

Year 607 of the Federation: the fires of separatist war ignite.

In the Eastern Continent, people rise in rebellion, hoping to establish their own Tianshu.

Research into transcendent genes in the Western Continent spirals out of control, giving rise to all manner of heresy.

In the Northern Continent, remnants of the old era are deeply entrenched and seek to break away.

The Southern Continent is consumed by endless war, where transcendents bleed and die.

The Central Continent sits securely at the heart of Tianshu, outwardly prosperous and thriving.

That same year, after Ning Li finished teaching his class, he actually saw light orbs drop from his students.

[Hidden Gene Fragment] + [Spatial Gene Fragment] + [Deception Gene Fragment] = [Mystery: Shadow Trickster]!

By day, Ning Li is a good teacher in his students' eyes. By night, he becomes a member of a separatist organization.

From then on, in this dangerous era, he quietly rises from an ordinary man's life to become the Federation's Speaker.

"I just want to teach in peace. Why have you brought the fighting right to my doorstep?"

"Sigh... You can't just wear a yellow robe like that, classmate. Hey, hey, don't put it on me!"

Years later, during the separatist war, the rebels are dumbfounded when Ning Li appears holding the leader's token. What happened to their incredibly powerful leader?!

Only when he says, "Unite the Nine Provinces, cleanse the dust and make them one," do they understand.

Are you the Federation's Speaker or the separatist leader?
