Last in the Class, Yet the System Says I Have Heaven-Defying Talent

Chen Zheng transmigrates to a world of immortal cultivation and becomes a high school senior in Goose City.

On spirit-root testing day, he ranks last out of forty-two students in his class.

A mixed spirit root, useless in all five elements, with a cultivation ceiling of the third Qi Refining level.

His homeroom teacher sighs, his classmates mock him, and even he has resigned himself to his fate.

Then one day, a System suddenly pops into his head.

[Low-Level Cultivation System activating...]

[Host's spirit root detected: Mixed Spirit Root.]

[Assessment: You have reached this world's limit!]

[Congratulations, Host! Achievement unlocked: Peerless Genius!]

[Issuing reward...]

In that world, the Qi Refining stage is the peak.

In this world, it's only the starting point.

So,

After seven days of morning exercises, the System declares his natural talent transcendent and rewards him with an improved spirit root.

He places first in the monthly exam, and the System calls him exceptionally gifted, rewarding him with a congenital Dao body.

He breaks through to Qi Refining, and the System says he's met the standard for ascension, unlocking the achievement: Earthbound Immortal.

Chen Zheng stares at the System panel, where the words “limit reached” appear over and over, and falls into deep thought.

Is this generation's System kind of useless?

Then one day, he casually draws a talisman.

[Detected: The Host's talisman mastery surpasses that of the entire low-dimensional world!]

[Ultimate achievement unlocked: Ancestor of Talismans Across the Myriad Worlds!]

[Reward: ???]

His classmates: ???

His homeroom teacher: ???

The admissions staff of the Nine Immortal Academies, who rushed over to watch: ???

Chen Zheng looks at the System he's broken by playing around with it and sighs quietly:
