Reclaiming the Wilds for All Races: I Subdue the Primordial Wilderness with the Shop

Liu Dadi failed the college entrance exam. That very night, a beam of white light struck him and hurled him into the primordial wilderness.

He landed only to be hunted by a monstrous beast, nearly becoming its next meal.

At the brink of death, he bonded with the Myriad Forms Infinite Shop. Its rules were simple: everything could be traded for something of equal value. Beast meat could be exchanged for military rations, bones and hides for knives and arrows, and even the essence blood of the barbarians for firearms.

He crouched in a tree, munching on a ration bar, while in the distance barbarians chased human captives with torches.

"Fine. Then I'll trade you for something good."

With twenty-one farmers armed with hoes, he dug pits, set ambushes, and cut down the barbarians. With hand crossbows and traps, he wiped out a hundred elite warriors in the river valley. Liao Gu, chief of the Redscale Tribe, personally led his guards to take revenge, only to have the cartilage in his knee severed with a single slash. Liu Dadi tied him up at the mountain pass for all to see.

"Go tell your people: this land belongs to humanity."

Refugees flocked to him, and the settlement grew into a town. The shop unlocked advanced military gear, and everyone donned armor and carried blades. They became self-sufficient in food, with scouts stationed throughout a ten-mile radius. When the Redscale Tribe sent an envoy to negotiate peace, Liu Dadi dismissed him in three sentences.

"Free the captives, return our supplies, and get out of a fifty-mile radius."

When negotiations failed, he prepared for war. Three hundred people lined up, sharpening their blades as they waited for the barbarians' next attack.

This is the story of a young man who failed the college entrance exam and brought a modern arsenal to a savage land ruled by countless races, where he seizes territory, builds a city-state, and crushes anyone who dares defy him.

A knife from the start, and all his gear comes from trading. First, he becomes a village chief. Then, he becomes the Human Emperor.
