Born a Good-for-Nothing? Watch Me Turn the Tables

(Traditional Fantasy) Warning, warning: The plot is a mess, and from here on I'll be making it all up as I go. The protagonist still loves showing off. If you like watching the protagonist show off, stick around. Please turn your brain off! Xiao Fan, an outer-sect disciple of the Qingyun Sect, clutches the spirit-testing stele he has just received, his fingertips turning white. The words “Servant with Five Spirit Roots” on the stele sting his eyes, while the laughter around him buzzes like flies circling his ears. “Hey, isn't this our sect's once-in-ten-thousand-years waste of talent? He's been tested for three years, and his aptitude is still this lousy.” Someone deliberately raised their voice. Xiao Fan shot him a sidelong glance, tucked the stele into his robe, and forced a carefree smile. “What's the rush? You ‘geniuses’ with single spirit roots might end up relying on this waste to put food on your tables one day.” He brushed the dust off his clothes and turned to leave, leaving a crowd of disciples hopping mad behind him. So what if I'm a waste? Let me make one thing clear: sooner or later, I'll turn the whole sky over the Qingyun Sect upside down!
