High-EQ Cultivation

After years of working his way up through the bureaucracy, Lu Ping transmigrates to a cultivation world and becomes a disciple of a demonic sect. Fortunately, he gains a High-EQ Cultivation System. All he has to do is make a choice to receive generous rewards.

[Scenario One: A sect steward wants to marry his hideously ugly granddaughter off to you.]

[Low-EQ response: This disciple is of low status and would never presume to court your young lady. If you don’t mind, Steward, I’d be happy to serve you instead. That way, I can look after your daughter and care for you in your old age. (Reward: Low-grade Blood Soul Pill)]

[Medium-EQ response: This disciple is devoted to seeking immortality and the Dao, and has no plans to look for a cultivation partner for now. (Reward: Mid-grade Frostdark Blade)]

[High-EQ response: You old geezer, if you’re that desperate for family, why don’t I be your dad? (Reward: Top-grade cultivation aptitude: Mystic Union Spirit Body)]

…

[Scenario Two: After fighting a powerful enemy alongside you, a fairy is gravely wounded and has secretly fallen for you. She nestles in your arms.]

[Low-EQ action: Accept the fairy’s feelings and become cultivation partners on the spot, then cultivate the Dao together. (Reward: Low-grade dual cultivation technique: Yin-Yang Harmony Art)]

[Medium-EQ action: Remain unmoved by her charms and proactively channel your spiritual energy into her to heal her wounds. (Reward: Sixty years of cultivation)]

[High-EQ action: Strike while she’s down. Fairy, it’s time for you to enter the Ten Thousand Souls Banner. (Reward: Immortal-grade cultivation aptitude: Innate Dao Body)]

…

From then on, the demonic sect gains a rising star who is sometimes worldly and socially adept, and sometimes hopelessly out of touch.

Years later, Lu Ping, now a mighty figure in the demonic path, looks back at the mountains of corpses and seas of blood behind him and sighs. “I got where I am today thanks entirely to my high EQ.”
