Synopsis: Li Xiao wakes to find himself a centurion in the border garrison of the Great Yu. Only after absorbing his predecessor's memories does he realize he is in a hopeless situation from the start: he has been poisoned with a muscle-weakening drug and fallen into the hands of his sworn enemy, a female demon...
Female demon: "People from the Central Plains are so fair. You must taste delicious!"
Li Xiao: "I, your centurion, would rather die than submit to you!"
Female demon: "Heh heh heh. Then I'll make you wish you were dead but unable to die! I'll drain all your true energy and make it mine!"
As Li Xiao's life ebbs away, he awakens the Super Emotion Collection System.
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, you've obtained the Overlord Physique!"
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, you've obtained the Star-Absorbing Art!"
At the critical moment, the tables turn. See how Li Xiao, a centurion in the border garrison, turns the situation around and makes his way in a chaotic age...
