[Imperial Exams] + [Lucky Star] + [System] + [Alternate History]
After an all-night gaming session and thirteen straight losses in “Lucky Star,” Jin Ye blacks out. When he opens his eyes again, he has become an eight-year-old boy named Xie Ping'an, born into a farming family in the Great Qian Dynasty.
From the start, he has a huge lump on his head, an empty house, and scarce resources. The only path to advancement, the imperial examinations, has been monopolized by his cousin Xie Yulin, whom the entire family scrimps and saves to support. As the youngest son of the second branch, with an older brother and younger sister, how could he ever dream of studying?
Just when all seems hopeless, the “Lucky Star” from his game appears as the [Fortune System for Avoiding Misfortune]! It predicts whether each day will bring good or bad luck: minor fortune, minor rewards; great fortune, grand prizes! The more losses he racks up, the more explosive his next winning streak will be!
With the Lucky Star System in hand, ambition burns in Xie Ping'an’s eyes. Farming? Business? No! Only the imperial examinations can free him from the shackles of poverty and let his family live with dignity!
No books, ink, paper, or inkstone? The System’s reward, [Calligraphy at the Mastery Level], is the first stepping stone! Watch a modern underachiever use the Lucky Star System to carefully maneuver through a feudal family that monopolizes resources, win the right to study, and ultimately embark on the path to success known as “all other pursuits are inferior, only study brings honor”!
From a farmer’s son to the top scholar, every step of his way is blessed by the Lucky Star!
