Li Bai, a hapless guy who'd just been fired in the real world, was struck by lightning while eating instant noodles and sent to a high-martial world.
The good news: he'd awakened an overpowered System.
The bad news: the System told him that in three days, a girl named Shen Yinghan would kill him with a single sword stroke.
The worse news: his mission to stay alive was to take this assassin as his disciple and train her into a Martial God.
Li Bai looked at his own Body Tempering Realm, First Layer cultivation, then at the blood dripping from the long sword in Shen Yinghan's hand.
“System, do you think my life is too long or something?”
Me? Body Tempering Realm, First Layer? Teach someone who can kill me in one strike how to fight?
System: Put simply, you use your brain, and she does the fighting.
Li Bai: So I handle the trash talk, and she handles the killing?
System: Precisely.
And so a useless master who made his living by talking and a cold-faced assassin disciple embarked on a chaotic journey to raise a Martial God.
While others cultivated martial arts, he cultivated his mouth. While others trained with blades, he trained his brain.
When everyone thought he was nothing but a useless nobody, Li Bai smiled faintly.
“Useless? I was the master of a Martial God, you know.”
