A Guide to Choosing Your Major in the Cultivation World

One moment, Wen Jiantang was livestreaming to help students choose their college entrance exam applications. The next, her vision went black, and she died suddenly, transmigrating into a cultivation novel from a popular web-fiction site.

The good news: The original owner had extraordinary talent and a distinguished family background.

The bad news: This was a broken-engagement novel. The male lead would rise from humble beginnings, and no one should look down on a poor young man. She, meanwhile, was the shortsighted former fiancee.

Wen Jiantang sucked in a sharp breath.

Worse still, although cultivators were everywhere in the cultivation world, and geniuses were as common as dogs, and the nine years of compulsory cultivation education were already in full swing, some feudal dregs still refused to die out.

For example, the family-first mindset was utterly absurd. Clan members had to devote their entire lives to the family. The Wen family had barely broken off her engagement before arranging a new marriage alliance for her.

Another example: society was rigidly stratified, with cultivation clans monopolizing information about the Great Dao. Ordinary rogue cultivators could toil away for over a decade, take one wrong step on the path of cultivation, and regret it for the rest of their lives, forced to watch their cultivation stagnate as they became servants to the great clans.

For instance, sword cultivators were sent to mine, beast cultivators to slaughter cattle... And the original owner, a spell cultivator, was destined to stand beside the spirit fields, summoning wind and rain every day.

Wen Jiantang: "...These old-fashioned feudalists really are hard to kill."

To escape her cannon-fodder fate and kick her feudal family to the curb, Wen Jiantang had no choice but to return to her old profession, don secret identity after secret identity, pore over the original story, and get her hands on first-hand information. She aimed to give career guidance another shot in the cultivation world.

Weapon crafting? Beast taming? Sword cultivation? Body cultivation? Want to know which path suits you best? Want to understand what each cultivation discipline is really like these days? Want to establish your foundation in three days and form your core in five?

Career counseling and cultivation-path guidance: Don't let yourself live with regrets!

In recent years, the power of rogue cultivators has grown considerably. Most strangely, they all recognize someone named Immortal Qingyu as their master.

As a blade in the hands of the great clans, Luo Chen naturally donned a secret identity and traveled a thousand miles to lie in wait beside his target.

But he never expected that this trip would turn his world upside down.

At her side, Luo Chen learned...

what it meant to rebel.

"If you can give your life for the great clans, why not become the sharpest blade in my hand?"

So spoke the immortal.

Content warning!

The female lead kills people. This is a world of immortals, where the strong prey on the weak. That's perfectly normal.

The cultivation setting and worldbuilding are partly unconventional. If that's not for you, feel free to drop the story. There are countless great stories on Jinjiang. See you again next time!
