Not Talented Enough? I Rise to Godhood Through Relentless Grinding

After transmigrating to the Tianhun Continent, Lu Zheng had neither exceptional innate spiritual power nor a top-grade spirit soul.

All he had was a dull woodcutter's knife and an "Effort System" that was always giving him missions.

At the training grounds:

"What's going on? Your running drill ended ages ago. Why are you still running?"

"Unbelievable! This guy doesn't even rest at night. He's out in the woods practicing his knife skills alone!"

"Lu Zheng, stop increasing the load! We can't handle these weighted sandbags anymore!"

"Lu Zheng, these old bones can't keep up with your pace. Train on your own..."

At the Spirit Duel Arena:

> "Referee, I object! He used his left hand. That's an insult to me!"

"You've got to be kidding me! We agreed on a 2v2, and you kicked your teammate off the field?"

> There's nothing I can do. My family is dirt poor. Hard work is my only option., Lu Zheng

> "Why do I always feel like I'm living in your shadow?"
