[No System] [Infinite Tower-Climbing] [Unexpected Contrast] [Comedic Masked Man] [Fun-Loving] [Soulslike] [Broke Gem Mage]
The blood moon appeared, and strange phenomena erupted everywhere. Gao Huan had only gone out to enjoy the spectacle, but the next second, everything went black and his soul transmigrated straight into the Astral Realm of a parallel world!
To make matters worse, the otherworldly counterpart he'd possessed was so poor he couldn't afford even the lowest-grade cultivation gem. It was hell mode from the start!
He thought the talent-awakening ceremony might let him defy fate, but who could have guessed he'd awaken the most expensive, resource-hungry gem magic in the entire Astral Realm?
While everyone else cultivated smoothly, he couldn't even cast a decent spell without gems. A pauper saddled with a top-tier talent that devoured money became the laughingstock of the whole school on the spot!
The teachers looked at him with contempt, and his classmates took turns mocking him. They all called him a delusional clown who only knew how to embarrass himself, and insisted that if he climbed the Tower to Heaven, he'd be nothing but cannon fodder for others to step on!
Faced with a storm of ridicule, Gao Huan didn't back down. He got mad instead.
Laugh all you want? I'll go all in!
He bet his only house, took on a mountain of debt, sold everything he owned to buy gems, and focused on growing stronger without offering a single excuse!
Go ahead and sneer all you like. Keep waiting for me to crash and burn. Once I use gem magic to race all the way to the top of the tower, everyone who looked down on me and laughed at me will be nothing more than toys for the great Gao Huan!
