My Spiritual Root Is a Ferocious Beast

I was ranked first in my grade in internal rolls, but during the awakening ceremony I discovered that my spiritual power was only level three? Zhuge Xing wanted to accept his fate, until his fire root transformed in public... Our world was once on the verge of destruction. When the ancient art of controlling spirits gradually became exhausted amidst the screams of ferocious beasts and the wars of dynasties, when the golden elixir and Nascent Soul could no longer protect the city, human beings were once reduced to crawlers in the shadow of giant beasts. Despair was the only undertone of that era. Until the first prototype psionic armor was born in the furnace of the Empire, and the first artificial energy core was lit in the laboratory of the Royal Academy of Sciences. The spiritual root is connected to the circuit, the magic is woven with codes, and the soul is carried with steel. This is the best of times, when mortals can touch the authority of gods through creation; this is also the worst of times, when ancient taboos are loosened by technology, and deeper darkness grows under the surface of prosperity.
