Didn't I Fail the College Entrance Exam? How Did I Become a Sage of the Confucian Dao?

Qin Jian: I've trained hard for years, and at last I made a spectacular impression at the college entrance exam, writing a piece called The Great Transformation Rhapsody. I was just about to earn a perfect score, so how did I transmigrate at a time like this?

And I got the classic transmigration opening, too: the moment I opened my eyes, I was a useless illegitimate son of a marquis's household, about to be thrown out and left to live on the streets!

Fortunately, this is a world where the Way of Letters flourishes. As long as you know how to study, you can move mountains and fill seas, and wield powers beyond the reach of ghosts and gods. Most importantly, this world has no Tang poetry or Song ci, no Li Bai or Su Shi!

Back on Earth, you could call me a useless humanities student and I wouldn't take offense. But here, you should call me a transmigrator from another world, a walking recitation machine who knows the classics by heart, a humanities student who commands Tang poetry and Song ci: Qin Jian!
