Synopsis

Cultivation in the modern era.

Nine years of compulsory cultivation education, followed by ten years of grueling immortal cultivation exams.

Get into a cultivation university, and you'll be assigned a job upon graduation.

The Sword Sect livestreams, the Daoist sects sell products online, and music cultivators hold concerts...

Lu Chao, who transmigrated here, forged a new path in cultivation by collecting discarded cultivation materials.

[Trade pill residue for pills.]

[Trade withered herbs for spirit herbs.]

[Trade scrapped artifact-forging materials for magical artifacts.]

[Use Reputation Points to unlock the Spirit Tempering Pool and improve your spiritual root aptitude.]

The System rattled on and on.

Lu Chao: It's daylight. I pinched myself, and it hurt. This isn't a dream.

How is this any different from a windfall dropping from the sky?

I'll pick it all up, pick it all up, pick it all up! I'm getting rich!

I'll soak and soak and soak! I'm getting stronger!

Ahahahahahahaha!

First Cultivation University Forum:

Question: Which senior at our university is the most mysterious?

First reply: Senior Lu Chao!!! He spent the start of the semester picking up trash, and we all thought his family was too poor to afford food. Then he revealed a top-grade magical artifact at the midterm competition, worth ten thousand top-grade spirit stones. I was stunned!

Second reply: Same, Senior Lu. He clearly has a useless five-element spiritual root, yet he went from Qi Refining in his first year to Foundation Establishment in his third, and reached the Golden Core stage by graduation. That's not scientific!

Third reply: +10086. Isn't the most amazing thing Senior Lu's online general store? It has everything, from spirit plants and herbs for alchemy to magical artifacts, formation plates, and cultivation manuals. Senior Lu must come from some legendary reclusive clan. Anyway, his online store just stocked a new batch of pills. First come, first served!!

Theme: Hard work always pays off.
