Xie Xige transmigrated to the interstellar age, five thousand years in the future.
This world was home to humans, demons, beasts, bugs, and machines, as well as evil gods lurking deep in the sea of stars, coveting everything.
Humanity was on the brink of ruin.
To survive, humans underwent mechanical modifications and genetic evolution. Pure-blood humans grew ever scarcer, until only a little over a hundred remained.
In the eyes of other races, pure-blood humans were “delicious little snacks.”
In the eyes of humanity's elite, pure-blood humans were “precious experimental material.”
In Xie Xige's eyes, being pure-blooded meant a “high-risk identity.”
Having come from five thousand years in the past, Xie Xige wanted to clutch her head and scream: “Stay away from me!”
To get home and stay alive, she followed the System's arrangements and used a noble identity of unknown origin to infiltrate a spirit arts academy.
By day, she was a “pure-blooded young lady” of noble lineage and cool elegance.
By night, she studied and practiced with mad determination, cramming until she was at the top of her class.
It turned out that people only discover their potential when pushed to their limits.
With death threats looming, Xie Xige powered her way up from the bottom of the academy to become the strongest spirit arts practitioner of her era.
Later, she ascended to the highest throne of Olympodi and became a tyrant everyone feared.
Only then did she discover that her transmigration had never been an accident.
It had all been part of the evil gods' scheme.
Humanity was a chess piece.
The academy was an examination hall.
War was a game.
And the evil gods, high above, were choosing “new players” to join their great game.
Xie Xige smiled and flipped the board. “You want to use me as a chess piece? Sorry, I'm the real protagonist of this game.”
