A Turbulent Age of Famine: Your Majesty, It’s Cold, Please Put on More Clothes

I'm a little author with two and a half years of practice!!!

(Early hunting and making a fortune + passionate action + feel-good power fantasy + struggle for supremacy)

Xia Ren drops dead, then transmigrates.

He awakens as a poor scholar with nothing to his name: just three bowls of thin porridge, an old bow, and an older brother who sold their fields to buy back his freedom.

From the start, all he has is a bowl. He'll have to earn the rest through hard work.

The good news is, he's bound to the Heaven Rewards Diligence System: every bit of effort brings a reward.

Practice archery? His skill improves.

Make traps? His craft improves.

Hunt rabbits? His strength improves too.

As long as he keeps training, he can grow stronger.

But the bad news is...

The Great Qian dynasty is rotten to the core. Corrupt officials run rampant, the people are suffering, and an age of chaos is near.

Study for the imperial examinations? That's just a way to become a lapdog for corrupt officials.

Better to take up his bow, head into the mountains to hunt, and survive the winter first.

And then...

Carve a path through this chaotic age, one drop of blood at a time.
