[Tentative blurb. I'll revise it before posting, but the premise won't change.]
As a natural bottom, a bottom who prides himself on being delicate, soft, and beautiful, Hua Feihe's greatest dream is to find an exceptionally strong top with both a great body and a handsome face.
Then he transmigrated into a book. The System came online and told him to stick to the original character's personality. Same old story. As an avid reader, he got it instantly.
Hua Feihe: What's the original character like? Cool and aloof? Gentle? A seductive femme fatale? An exceptional cultivation cauldron?
System: A battle maniac.
Hua Feihe: ???!!!
What the heck?!
The System pointed somewhere. See that list of the top prodigies? You're going to challenge everyone ranked above you.
Hua Feihe, who wasn't ranked at all and couldn't even beat a goose: ...What happens if I fail the mission?
System: You'll be eliminated, obviously.
Hua Feihe started sharpening a knife. If I'm going to die anyway, I choose suicide. Maybe I'll transmigrate back.
He made a show of measuring his wrist for ages, but eventually lost his nerve.
Hua Feihe cried until his eyes were swollen like walnuts. System! Can I get a different character setting? I'm afraid of pain! I'm really afraid of pain! Sob, sob! Fighting is so crude. This servant can't do it!
System: Sigh. Earn points. With enough points, I can block your pain and buy body-tempering techniques. If your body is strong enough, no one can break through your defenses! If you're not injured, it won't hurt!
Hua Feihe: That makes some sense, but body training makes you ugly! I don't want to turn into a gorilla with muscles like steel!
The System said, exasperated, Looks are nothing compared to strength!
Hua Feihe: Even if I die, I absolutely refuse to be ugly!
Later, Hua Feihe successfully defended his good looks. With smooth, fair skin and a gorgeous complexion, he became a battle maniac who could punch a savage beast to death.
