Isn't This Common Knowledge? [Infinite]

Qing Cai, a left-behind child raised in the countryside, was taken away by relatives from a sprawling city family, who claimed they wanted to give him a better education.

But the truth was that the supernatural had descended upon the world. The young master of the family had been chosen as a mission-taker, and urgently needed a blood relative to serve as his scapegoat.

And so Qing Cai was sent, completely bewildered, into the territory of an S-rank supernatural being.

S-rank supernatural being: the Riddler, who loved setting people puzzles.

He gave them ten multiple-choice questions, each with ten options. Pick too many or too few, and you died.

Everyone thought Qing Cai was going to die.

Even mission-takers on elite teams could barely make it through by relying on life-saving items they'd accumulated over past missions.

Qing Cai, however, couldn't understand what the fuss was about.

He treated the questions like elementary school math problems, answering one per second with barely a moment's thought.

Ten seconds later, he became the first person to clear the challenge with a perfect score.

Faced with everyone's disbelieving stares, Qing Cai was just as confused.

Weren't these things common knowledge?

You didn't know?

The world's most powerful supernatural beings lived in an isolated dimension, cut off from the rest of the world.

One day, a baby still in swaddling clothes wandered into their territory.

The supernatural beings raised him, teaching him all kinds of knowledge belonging to their kind, and watched with pride as he gradually grew up.

One of them found a human child-rearing book. It said, "Reading ten thousand books is no match for traveling ten thousand miles."

Turn the page, and it said, "Give children a sense of accomplishment. Teach them how to apply what they've learned and put their knowledge into practice."

The supernatural parents fell into deep thought.

How could they help their baby apply what he'd learned?

And then, one day, the world changed.

The supernatural had descended.
