Proving the Dao Across the Heavens, Starting as a Maoshan Disciple

No female lead + the System plays a minor role + becomes Master Qianhe's disciple + personal growth

The beginning is a slow burn, but the story takes off during the training chapters. No abuse of the protagonist or emotional torment, just satisfying growth. The System isn't much use: it mainly helps the protagonist transmigrate and gives him a few cultivation cheats early on. After that, it barely appears.

Three to four chapters every day, plenty to read. More chapters when there are lots of comments, and a healthy stockpile of chapters is ready.
