Others toil over the classics to cultivate their literary gifts, but I become a Sage by “scavenging trash”!
After transmigrating into a world ruled by Confucian principles, I become Gu Changqing, a destitute scholar from a humble family. From the start, I awaken the Sage's Words Recycling System.
A damaged Analects? Recycle it! [Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have obtained a Sage's Insight!]
Nonsense from a failed debate? Recycle it! [Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have refined the power of Wordcraft!]
An anonymous fragment of poetry someone threw away? Recycle it! [Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have forged a Poetry Sword!]
While everyone laughs at me for scavenging rubbish, I have already turned the discarded classics of every school through the ages into supreme divine arts of my own.
“The road I walk is a path to sagehood reaching the heavens, paved with the ‘trash’ you threw away!”
