Confucianism and the Way: I Transmigrated and Became a Sage from the Start

The Cangyuan Realm: a wasteland of Confucianism, where spiritual energy has run dry. Chen Ping transmigrates into the body of a poor scholar who has studied for twenty years without passing the entry-level imperial exam. The whole village urges him to find another line of work. Until, beneath the ancient locust tree at the village entrance, he recites four lines: "To establish the heart for Heaven and Earth, to secure life and destiny for the people; to continue the lost teachings of the sages of old, and to bring peace to all generations." As the last line falls, Heaven and Earth split apart. The Sacred Way recognizes its master. The myriad realms tremble, and the phantom forms of countless sages bow in reverence. Child Scholar, Licentiate, Provincial Graduate, Presented Scholar, Hanlin Academician, Great Confucian... He rises to sainthood in a single leap. Three thousand Spirit Realms, the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, the Hongmeng Divine Domain: if you refuse to accept it, come and face me. My battle spirits of poetry and verse are here to take on anyone who refuses to yield.
