Once the top college entrance exam student in his small town, Xiao Yao made it into the prestigious Jinghua Institute of Mathematics, only to become the worst student there.
Bent over with low self-esteem, bottom of the class and seeing the world in shades of gray, he watches helplessly as an unseen evil force gradually crushes his genius roommate, who leaves school with regrets. Trapped in the mud, Xiao Yao believes his life has already been set in stone.
Then, one night on his way back to campus, he practices standing meditation and awakens the ability to see qi.
A fragment of Zhang Sanfeng's manuscript, hidden in an ancient book, enters his body, reshaping his bones and cleansing his meridians. It cures his years of stooping and nearsightedness, and unlocks an astonishing ability to understand and remember anything at a glance.
From then on, obscure mathematical analysis and difficult English become crystal clear to him at a glance. His academic performance makes a stunning comeback, leaving all the top students in the institute in the dust.
He can discern the shape of ancient objects and the baleful qi of yin and yang at a glance, seeing a century's worth of fortune and the truth behind good and bad omens.
The foul yin energy haunting his dorm, the fortunes and misfortunes of antiques in the marketplace, and the flow of fortune that others cannot see are all laid bare before his eyes.
To escape his predicament and defy fate, he heads to the antique market. With his newly awakened ability to see qi, he begins a journey of finding hidden treasures and turning his fortunes around, dispelling baleful energy and comprehending the Great Dao.
