Meng Ji, an utterly ordinary graduate, received an admission letter from a cultivation university one day. What was going on? Had nobody told the cultivation world that supernatural nonsense wasn't allowed after the founding of the country?!

Before school started.

They expected someone who knew absolutely nothing to cultivate as a sword cultivator? You've got to be kidding. He'd never even seen a real sword!

Why did he have to draw talismans and refine pills too? Did they even have to take ideological and political classes? Would they seriously study materialism in class?

After school started.

Meng Ji waved his life-bound sword and drew talismans: Cultivation! It's that easy!

Meng Ji had thought that, as an ordinary person, he would never fit in with the other cultivators. But then he turned around and ran into his roommate. This handsome roommate was quiet around everyone else, but suddenly became chatty whenever Meng Ji was around. His gaze was strange, he followed Meng Ji everywhere, and he was always coming up with excuses to cling to him.

Meng Ji: Isn't he being a little too vague about what he wants?

A recommendation for the story next door! Here's the blurb:

Yun Xing, the newly appointed mountain god of Mingwu Mountain.

By rights, he should have been able to take human form after eighteen years, but Heaven played a huge joke on him: he couldn't take human form at all!

At a loss, Yun Xing didn't want his fellow clan members to laugh at him, so he secretly went down the mountain.

Who knew that as soon as he came down, he would sense his own spiritual power on a human? Furious, Yun Xing was determined to teach this human a proper lesson.

Later, he went to the human's home and began his revenge. Among other things, he washed his feet in the human's cup, sharpened his claws on the human's curtains, and stole the human's place to sleep...

Then one day, he discovered that his spiritual power hadn't been stolen. He looked down at his successfully transformed body, then at the man he'd ordered to replace the curtains. I can't believe you didn't tell me sooner!

Tan Xu adopted a little calico cat.

That night, he dreamed of a brown-haired boy sitting on his sofa, bossing him around. The boy said his name was Yun Xing, he was the mountain god of Mingwu Mountain, and Tan Xu had better serve him well from now on.

He slowly opened his eyes and found himself face-to-face with the eyes of the calico he'd brought home. He cautiously asked, "Xingxing?"

The calico flicked its tail and glanced at him. "Meow."

Tan Xu: ...

One day, Yun Xing was still sharpening his claws on Tan Xu's bed. Tan Xu silently opened Taobao as he looked at the increasingly threadbare sheets. Suddenly, something heavy landed on him.

He looked up. The brown-haired boy from his dream was sitting on top of him. The boy stared blankly for a moment, then glared at him. "Hurry up and find me some clothes, mortal!"
