Chapter 1: System Awakening
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
At a rented apartment in Shanghai, Su Hao was lying on a hard bed. He abruptly opened his eyes and sat up, rubbing his face.
“Did I transmigrate?”
Su Hao touched his face, filled with disbelief. Before he had even woken up, he had already regained consciousness. It was just that he was merging his memories and only woke up now.
This world could be considered a parallel world to Earth. Bit it was very different from the old Earth. This world’s Spiritual Energy had started to emerge a thousand years ago. With the dawn of Spiritual Energy, all kinds of Ancient Demonic Beasts and Divine Beasts appeared one after another.
In the beginning, the human race was in a disadvantageous position for hundreds of years. They were constantly suppressed by the Divine Beasts. However, soon, all sorts of powerful humans began to appear.. The geniuses of the human race rose up and suppressed the Divine Beasts and tamed them one by one. The once insufferably arrogant monsters and Divine Beasts were reduced to being reared by the human race.
Even the Ghostly Beings were suppressed by the Immortal Cultivators and did not dare to show themselves in front of the human beings.
This era was a golden age for humans. As time progressed, technology became less important and stopped at the level of Earth’s 21st century.
“Isn’t that obvious? Even a Golden Core Cultivator can take on the strongest weapon in ancient times with his bare hands. Who would want to develop technology? They are all cultivating.”
After a moment of excitement, Su Hao quickly calmed down. This was because after merging with the memories of the original owner of this body, he knew that everyone who took the college entrance examination at the age of eighteen would have their cultivation talent tested.
As for why he was 18 years old, that was because the body of a person before 18 years old had yet to fully develop. If he recklessly cultivated, he would only hurt himself. Therefore, the country had set the law that cultivators were not allowed to cultivate before 18 years old.
Through his memories, Su Hao also learned that the original owner of this body had just finished the college entrance examination not long ago. The result was that he had a physique that was repelled by Spiritual Energy. To put it bluntly, he didn’t have the slightest bit of cultivation talent and was a piece of trash since this physique would only appear on a piece of trash without any cultivation talent.
“I wanted to make a name for myself and bring my parents to the big city to enjoy life in the future, but now, I don’t even have rent for next month.”
Su Hao smiled helplessly. He then continued, “It’s better than my previous life.”
In his previous life, he was an orphan on Earth. He was adopted by his grandmother who passed away a few years later. Su Hao, who had just graduated from junior high school, was working hard. In the end, he fell seriously ill and had no money to treat himself. He only lived until he was 21 years old before he passed away.
“What do I have to be afraid of in this golden age of humans? My parents are both healthy. According to the university that the original owner of this body applied for, I can find a middle-class or low-class job after studying.”
“However, I really envy those flying Immortal Cultivators a little. Who doesn’t have a dream of cultivation when they were young? I also want to cultivate.”
Just as Su Hao finished speaking, a cold mechanical female voice sounded in his mind.
[Beep! Sword Draw strengthening system is being activated…]
Su Hao abruptly sat up from the sofa in the living room.
“I knew it! How can a transmigrator not have a system!”
“The standard is to draw the blade ten times. The detailed functions of the system will be informed after the host has completed the conditions to unlock the system.”
Su Hao was stunned. There was such a thing?
However, he was still excited. Having a system meant that he was about to reach the peak of his life. He was a protagonist.
Su Hao stood up excitedly and started to search for knives in the apartment. Finally, he grabbed a wooden knife from the living room and said, “System, can I use this to practice?”
He had bought this wooden knife online not long ago. He did not expect it to be useful today.
“It can be used.”
After getting the approval of the system, Su Hao quickly got into position and started to imagine the plot in the television series. Then, he shouted and pulled out the wooden knife from his waist. However, the system notification immediately sounded.
“Knife drawing failed. The posture is not standard.”
System: “Host’s posture deviated from the correct Sword Draw by 85%.”
Su Hao asked curiously, “Then what is the correct posture for drawing the blade?”
System: “The answer function has yet to be unlocked. Host, please explore by yourself.”
Su Hao’s forehead was filled with black lines. Then, he took out his phone and opened the webpage to search for the correct posture to draw his knife.
In an instant, more than a hundred pictures and video links popped up on the webpage. The steps from the first step to the last step were completely displayed. There was even a lecture on the side of the pose.
In this era of cultivation, there was no shortage of martial arts from the old era. A casual search would find many of them.
Su Hao stared at his phone. After confirming that he had memorized all the steps, he placed the wooden knife at his waist and lowered his body slightly before pulling it out.
“Knife drawing failed. The posture is not standard.”
The system’s voice resounded in his mind. Su Hao was slightly stunned, then his eyes burned with fighting spirit.
Su Hao came from a poor background. In his current world, he had lost at the starting line.
It was precisely because of this that he had developed many strong points.
One of them was perseverance.
Su Hao’s eyes were filled with determination. He sheathed his knife and pulled it out again.
“Knife drawing failed. The posture is not standard.”
The system’s cold voice sounded in his mind again.
“If the posture is not up to standard then I’ll practice to the standard for you to see!”
The continuous sounds of failure raised Su Hao’s fighting spirit.
Once, twice, three times, four times…
The sound of drawing his blade echoed in the living room as well as the system prompt in Su Hao’s mind.
“Knife drawing failed. The posture is not standard.”
“Knife drawing failed. The posture is not standard.”
————————————-
It was already evening and Su Hao was still drawing his knife. At this moment, he was half-naked and his entire body was red like a cooked crab. The ceaseless drawing of his knife made him sweat like water and the floor beneath his feet was drenched in his sweat.
However, Su Hao was immersed in the pleasure of becoming stronger. He was unable to restrain himself and did not feel any fatigue.
Moreover, his movements of drawing his knife had gradually improved to proficiency from his initial clumsy manner. Now, every time he drew his knife, it seemed to be working.
This was because a voice in his head was telling him how to properly exert force, how to use the correct posture to draw the blade.
One blade after another, Su Hao’s movements became more and more fierce. Every time he pulled out the knife, there would be a piercing sound.
Su Hao, who was immersed in the practice of drawing his knife, had no idea that it was already the sunny hours of the morning. He was still tirelessly drawing his knife in the living room. The sound of the blade cutting through the air was stronger, faster and more ferocious than before.
Immediately after.
Su Hao bowed, his entire aura changed. His posture was more perfect than before, like a ferocious beast ready to strike.
The moment his hand grabbed onto the hilt of the knife, Su Hao felt an extremely mysterious energy surge out from his body and his mind was filled with a clear energy!
Feeling something in his heart, he hurriedly closed his eyes. The instant he closed his eyes, he seemed to have seen a figure. That figure did some real and fake movements. Looking at that figure, Su Hao’s body couldn’t help but move!
“Slash!”
Su Hao suddenly opened his eyes and let out a roar. He pulled out his blade and as the knife sliced through the air, a series of whistling sounds resonated. One could faintly hear the sound of the blade!
If this knife move was seen by a Grandmaster who had reached great heights in the old era, he would definitely be amazed.
“Ding! Congratulations on completing the standard posture of drawing the knife ten times. System has been unlocked. Reward: a novice gift package.”
Right after Su Hao gracefully sheathed his blade, the system’s voice sounded in his mind once more. Su Hao’s face was full of exhaustion but when he heard the system’s voice, he couldn’t help but laugh. His persistence finally paid in good sum.
The task of drawing his knife ten times in a standard posture was completed without him realizing.
“Ding! Congratulations to host for obtaining the Novice Gift Package. The reward requirement for the next stage is 500 times.”
Before Su Hao could rejoice, his body suddenly became strengthless. He collapsed onto the sofa and fell asleep with his eyes closed.
He practiced drawing his knife for an entire day and that final burst of power drained all his energy.
