Reading Gives Me Stat Points

While others cultivate by meditating, the protagonist cultivates by reading.

Read The Analects and awaken the Sage’s Words skill; flip through Relativity and gain control of lightning.

When an apocalypse strikes and the whole world falls into despair, the protagonist quietly pulls out a copy of Five Years of College Entrance Exams, Three Years of Practice…

The villain is stunned. “What are you doing?!”

The protagonist smiles. “Nothing much, just making you pay an intelligence tax.”
