    Logically rigorous, with a unique setting. Three "no's": no system, no cheat codes, no female lead. Three "no's": no saintly figures, no idiocy, no pretentiousness. Slightly slow at the beginning, but everyone says it's great later on, as shown in the image. Traditional Golden Core and Nascent Soul levels; cultivation can't rely solely on grave robbing, scientific innovation is key. The protagonist transmigrates with five thousand years of Earth's resources, but is merely a rogue cultivator in the border army, his cultivation resources almost entirely divided up by powerful families and ancient clans. No cultivation techniques, no spiritual veins, only the innate talents of the Chinese race: farming, starting from ordinary mortal lands; infrastructure, beginning in border towns and markets; education, starting with family private schools for literacy. Spiritual fields, spiritual wine, talismans, networks, supercomputers… Also known as "Infrastructure Maniac: Building Base Stations and Spiritual Realms in the Cultivation World."

    This one! A beast-world setting with no romance, a system handed over to the female lead, and a focus on infrastructure development and farming. The female lead punches the system, kicks the male lead, and leads her starving beastman tribe to prosperity! Five stars for enjoyment! No romance, just farming!! Highly recommended!!
