I Awaken A Cultivation System In Another World

Chapter 3: The Cultivation Manual

Reading novels can make you stronger? Who are you trying to fool?

Whether others believed it or not, Ryan certainly did not.

[Respected host, if you do not believe it, you can first try reading the novel in your hand.]

Ryan skeptically began reading I Am the King of the Cultivation Realm.

The moment he started reading, Ryan's expression became extremely strange.

Year 233 of the Immortal King Era

Xiang Tianchong challenged Wo Ritian and, after battling for several days, successfully replaced him as the number one person in the world, claiming the title of Immortal King!

One divine manual created an extraordinary legend!

A simple stable boy rose through the ranks to become a generation's Immortal King!

From that moment on, the Severing Divine Manual was ranked by the Heavenly Records as the world's number one divine technique.

What the actual hell? Are you sure this is a cultivation novel?

Ryan's face darkened. With that description and that technique name, this was worse than the martial arts novels he had read before.

[Ding!]

[Technique detected: Severing Divine Manual!]

[Technique Grade: Garbage]

[Technique Description: To practice this technique, one must first castrate oneself! Sever worldly troubles, and the immortal path will open naturally!]

[Technique Origin: From a novel in another world. Mass-produced garbage full of plot holes. The system has automatically refined and perfected it.]

[Would the host like to learn this technique? The first learning session requires no exchange coins.]

Ryan's eye twitched. "...Like hell I will!"

Great. Just great. He thought he had obtained a cheat ability, but it turned out the system wanted to harm his little brother!

Ryan facepalmed. "System, how exactly does this mental visualization thing work?"

[As the host has seen, this system can record all techniques and skills from cultivation novels.]

Oh! Ryan's eyes lit up. Recording all techniques and skills from cultivation novels? This was absolutely a god-tier cheat ability!

Thinking about all the cultivation novels he had read before techniques like the Ten Thousand Fist or Void Grasping Death Hand... if he could learn divine skills just by reading novels, this was definitely a super-powered cheat!

[Additionally, respected host, if you record a technique but choose not to learn it, the system can recycle it or store it.]

[If you need storage, there is currently one empty slot available. Opening additional slots will require the host to spend exchange coins.]

Exchange coins?

Ryan thought for a moment. "System, what are exchange coins?"

[Respected host, exchange coins are the system's universal currency. They can be used to purchase items from the system shop.]

Ryan became interested. "How do I obtain exchange coins?"

[Respected host, there are two ways to obtain exchange coins.]

[One: Recycle unwanted techniques back to the system. The system will provide exchange coins based on the technique's grade.]

[Two: Complete tasks issued by the system. You will also receive exchange coins as rewards.]

I see. Ryan nodded in understanding.

In other words, as long as he kept reading novels and recording skills, he could become stronger. Excellent!

So what was he waiting for? Time to start reading!

Ryan felt like he had been injected with adrenaline. He stared at I Am the King of the Cultivation Realm and began reading it line by line, word by word.

He swore he had never been this serious about studying before.

While Ryan was "working hard to improve himself," Mr. Sai finished writing on the blackboard and turned around.

He surveyed the classroom below. Some students sat upright with proper posture. Others had paper flying from their hands as they calculated in sync with the teacher.

Of course, there were also outstanding young people like Ryan, who had their heads buried low in deep concentration.

"Not bad, not bad." Mr. Sai nodded with satisfaction. Even with only a few months left, everyone could still maintain their focus without arrogance or impatience. This was truly commendable!

"Oh?" Mr. Sai was pleasantly surprised. Ryan, who usually dozed off the moment class started, was now sitting upright and studying diligently?

Because Ryan's seat was toward the back and he had stacked his books high on his desk like a fortress wall, Mr. Sai could not see what Ryan was actually reading.

But judging from his expression those clear eyes filled with a hint of confusion, that furrowed brow radiating a thirst for knowledge this was clearly a reformed student who had turned over a new leaf!

Mr. Sai felt deeply moved. He thought his lecture during the break had finally taken effect.

Indeed, as long as you put in deep effort, even an iron rod can be grounded into a needle!

Mr. Sai clapped his hands and began his speech to the entire class. "Very good, students. Through your expressions and attitudes, I can fully sense your thirst for knowledge."

"I also hope everyone will continue to work hard. As long as you are willing to put in effort, it is never too late to learn."

"At the same time, I want to especially commend Ryan Hartwell!"

As Mr. Sai's words fell, the eyes of the entire class instantly focused on Ryan.

Ryan looked up in confusion, having no idea what had just happened.

Ryan thought to himself: Who am I? Where am I? What is happening?

"Ryan Hartwell, as everyone knows, his foundation is not strong. But even so, if he starts studying seriously now, even with only three months left, he can still create a miracle! Everyone should learn from his example!" Mr. Sai continued his performance.

Danny glanced over suspiciously. Something was off. He knew Ryan's personality well.

Asking him to study was harder than killing him.

With a skeptical attitude, Danny leaned slightly to the side, trying to see what Ryan was reading.

Unfortunately, Ryan's "fortress" was too well-constructed. Despite his best efforts, Danny could only see a corner of the book.

But when he caught sight of that familiar book corner, it was as if his meridians had suddenly opened. A sense of familiarity rushed straight to the top of his head.

Danny's eyes widened. "No way! Is not that I Am the King of the Cultivation Realm?!"

No wonder it looked so familiar. He owned that same book, and it was currently sitting in his own desk right now.

"Ryan Hartwell, excellent work."

"I have decided to give you this study guide as a gift. I hope you will continue working hard."

Mr. Sai picked up the textbook from the podium The Complete Theory of Abilities. It was worn and dirty, clearly well-used!

Mr. Sai gently brushed the cover, feeling somewhat reluctant. After all, this book had accompanied him for a long time. But thinking about how it could help Ryan, he felt at ease.

As he spoke, Mr. Sai walked straight toward Ryan with the book in hand, clearly intending to personally deliver it into Ryan's hands.

Danny's mind screamed: Oh no!

This is bad! Danny looked at Ryan with mourning eyes. This would definitely enrage The Reaper. When that happened, not even a god could save Ryan!

In the blink of an eye, Ryan slammed his hand on the desk and shot to his feet. The sudden movement even caused his chair to slide backward.

Everyone in the classroom froze. The atmosphere became tense.

"Mr. Sai, thank you so much for believing in me! I, Ryan Hartwell, will absolutely not disappoint your expectations!"

Ryan's eyes were red with emotion as he spoke with firm conviction.

He strode forward with determined, quick steps. In almost no time, he stood directly in front of Mr. Sai.

With a solemn and sacred expression, he received The Complete Theory of Abilities as if it were a precious treasure.

"Good, good... A student worth teaching." Mr. Sai instantly felt his own eyes moisten slightly. To see Ryan reach this point filled him with immense gratification.

After the ceremony was complete, Mr. Sai returned to the podium and continued his lesson.

Ryan clutched the book tightly to his chest and returned to his seat.

The crisis had been averted without incident.

Danny's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. "Holy crap! Dude! That actually worked?!"
