Under the Qiling Monument

In this world of cultivation, all exercises are open to the public and everyone starts on an equal footing. Bai Yi came through time travel, without a golden finger or ancient bloodline, and only got a yellow qualification on the Spiritual Enlightenment Monument. With only three spiritual stones left in his pocket, he walked into Fangshi. While others formed a team to hunt down spiritual beasts, he squatted at the door of the medicine shop to read the buying cards; while others practiced asceticism in seclusion, he went to the mountains to identify spiritual herbs by comparing them with maps. It only took him one month from collecting the first basket of medicinal herbs, to discovering the growth pattern of accompanying medicinal herbs, to teaching the medicinal collectors step by step how to identify new varieties. While others were still exchanging physical strength for spiritual stones, he had already begun to exchange information for spiritual stones. While others are still trying to please the strong, he has learned to use "future gains" to lock in today's allies. His weapon is not a magic weapon, but knowledge. His practice is not to meditate, but to buy low and sell high. His goal is not to ascend, but to use business logic to re-weld an upward path in this class-solidified world.
