Wang Jing transmigrated into his mother's womb, but even by the time he reached university, his life was still utterly ordinary, and he had no System to rely on.
Then one day, the System suddenly awakens. Wang Jing faces the following choices. Once he picks one, the System will immediately announce it to the whole world!
One: Martial Arts Grandmaster, invincible under heaven! Cooldown: one day!
Two: Earthbound Immortal, a thousand years in the mortal world! Cooldown: one week!
Three: Ascend to Immortality, an immortal god for ten thousand years! Cooldown: one month!
Four: Lord of the Great Dao, master of the Dao and the divine! Cooldown: one season!
Five: Undying Immortal Emperor, supreme above the myriad paths! Cooldown: one year!
Wang Jing realizes he's in a terrible bind. Pick something weak and it's useless; pick something powerful and he might not be able to hold on. But once he finally makes his choice...
The whole world goes mad!
The West: "Who is Wang Jing? Find this Ascendant within one day!"
Gaul: "An Ascendant? Isn't that a heavenly god? The world has no need for gods! Make him answer for his crimes within three days!"
But a week passes...
Little Sakura: "We've confirmed his identity. Give us three more days, and he must be brought to justice!"
Another week passes!
The West: "Awakened alliances have appeared everywhere. There will be no more Ascendants within three days!"
But week after week goes by.
The world gradually falls silent, until on the final day, the nations suddenly declare:
"We've suddenly realized that having one more Ascendant to guide humanity forward might not be such a bad thing!"
"Everyone knows the Ascendant came from our country. In a way, we were a powerful support for him."
Wang Jing smiles. "There's an old saying in China: When one person attains the Dao, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. I wonder if any of you would like to be the Ascendant's chickens and dogs?"
Alas, I went to Thailand so much that I vomited.
If you don't ascend, you won't have superpowers. If you ascend, you'll have them.
