The protagonist's superpowers are also extremely powerful. Actually, there's a very interesting plot point—an Indian awakens powerful superpowers and seeks revenge on the Americans.

Campus awakening and global superpowers leap from school to the entire population. The power struggles within the country are somewhat reminiscent of *Under One Person*. The premise is quite novel. The second book really captured what I wanted to write. The protagonist transmigrates to the cultivation world and becomes a mining slave, unarmed and forced to mine spirit stones daily to survive. He almost gets killed by a cultivator, but thanks to the Pisces Jade Pendant, he establishes contact with Earth—this setup is incredibly satisfying! The most amazing thing is the government's reaction. Without hesitation, a special command center is established. Laser cutting blades break cultivation formations, modern supplies are precisely delivered, and even research teams work overnight to analyze cultivation techniques.

    While the protagonist isn't the first, he's among the first in the early stages (no one before him levels up as fast). This story involves collaboration with the official developers, resulting in rapid character growth. By the time he reaches mid-stage strength, the entire world is already involved. This theme touches on the cosmos, which I've noticed has some negative reactions. You can check out the reviews.
