A mysterious System called the “Myriad Worlds Arena” appears around the globe. Each country draws one chosen champion, and the contest has three rounds, best of three: culture, legendary heroes, and mythology. Victory brings a huge increase in national fortune; defeat unleashes one disaster after another.
The Dragon Kingdom’s chosen champion is Lin Mo, a 26-year-old postgraduate history student.
The whole world mocks him: “The Dragon Kingdom’s history is full of gaps. Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of Han are just names, Tang poetry and Song lyrics survive only in fragments, and they send a bookworm in to get himself killed?”
Lin Mo glances at the misleading prompts on the card-draw screen and smiles.
“A drunk who loves writing poetry?” That’s Li Bai, peerless in both poetry and swordsmanship.
“A coward who suffered the humiliation of crawling between someone’s legs?” That’s Han Xin, the God of War.
“A kid who stirred up trouble in the sea and tore up the house?” That’s Nezha, with three heads and six arms.
Every “obscure figure” the world dismisses as a useless card is an SSR in his hands.
As he draws a card, the comments wail: “A dud! It’s over!”
When he summons the figure, the whole world is stunned: “What the hell, this is our country’s history?”
From the United States to Britain, from Japan to Germany, he crushes every opponent.
Until he uncovers a secret: the gaps in the Dragon Kingdom’s history weren’t an accident.
And his transmigration is an effort to set history right across a thousand years.
