[System + no female lead + genius-focused + heartwarming + no angst + sect senior brother + takes in junior brothers and sisters + lighthearted comedy]
(Note: No animals or chosen ones were harmed during the writing of this book.)
My name is Shi Yuan. Three months ago, I transmigrated to the cultivation world and became an utterly ordinary background-character senior brother.
I spent my days slacking off, lying flat, and basking in the sun.
Happy, carefree, and the envy of everyone.
But I never expected the chosen ones with protagonist templates to barge into my life like overloaded trucks on a highway.
And my personal System actually told me to sacrifice myself for them.
I beat up the System.
I never expected that beating it up would trigger a hidden mechanic.
As long as the chosen ones I invested in leveled up, I could freeload their cultivation gains!
What was there to hesitate about?
“What? You're a sword-cultivator prodigy, but your family was destroyed and you're being hunted? Then I'll gladly take you in!”
“What? You're a formation genius, but you come from a humble background and have nowhere to turn? I'll gladly take you in too!”
Geniuses! Talents! Prodigies! I'll take every last one of you!
Much later...
The chosen ones: “Everything Senior Brother says is right. He's perfect, and no one is allowed to criticize him!”
Shi Yuan: “When did I become the number one righteous cultivator?”
[No angst or tearjerkers throughout the book, no harem, no secret identities. It's a lighthearted comedy focused on showing off and face-slapping.]
