A relentless programmer transmigrates to the Celestial Master Mansion and binds a KPI System from the start
Zhang Sheng, a modern-day overworked office drone, dies from working overtime and transmigrates into the world of The Outcast. He becomes a menial outer disciple at the Celestial Master Mansion on Mount Longhu, a man of mediocre talent who's about to be kicked out.
Just as despair sets in, the [Celestial Master Mansion Revitalization System] forcibly binds itself to him. Its mission board is just like a boss handing out assignments:
"Beginner mission: Increase the Celestial Master Mansion's incense revenue by 300% within one month. Reward: Golden Light Mantra, Excel-optimized edition. Failure: Execution."
To stay alive, Zhang Sheng goes completely off the rails:
Incense Department: Livestream the Old Celestial Master drawing talismans on Douyin and launch a "Golden Light Mantra crash course VIP class." Incense offerings soar by 500%!
Combat Department: Reform the assessment system and require employees to respond to "Complete Nature" clients around the clock. Zhang Lingyu is forced to get to work.
R&D Department: Team up with Zhuge Qing and use 3D printers to mass-produce Five Thunder Talismans, industrializing talisman production.
Public Relations Department: Create a "Celestial Master idol boy band" and turn the aloof Junior Uncle Zhang Lingyu into a top-tier star in the outcast world.
When Complete Nature attacks the mountain, they find a sign at the entrance: "Queue here for interviews. Anyone causing trouble will be added to HR's blacklist."
When the Ten Elders hold a meeting, they discover the agenda has become "A feasibility report on listing the Celestial Master Mansion Immortal Realm Group."
When the Old Celestial Master, Zhang Zhiwei, watches his disciples use a "Yang Five Thunder shared power bank" to charge tourists' phones, he falls into deep thought...
Zhang Sheng is fretting over the System's latest mission:
"Ultimate KPI: Achieve collective ascension for the Celestial Master Mansion. Note: Consider an IPO on the New York Stock Exchange using a 'merit shares' model."
This is the story of a relentless overachiever turning a thousand-year-old Taoist temple into the outcast world's top state-owned enterprise, while using PowerPoint and Excel to upend the cultivation world.
