Harvard Global Essay Competition

24 year-old Richter Maier stands at the pinnacle of Swordsmanship — a competitive combat sport, whose glory was stolen by the first-ever immersive VR fantasy game: Mirage. It was a smash hit, rising to a global sensation - leaving Richter at a loss as his disciples and competitors quit to pursue a career in-game... Until fantasy became reality. Earth was indoctrinated into the 'System', with dungeons and monsters and classes eerily similar to Mirage. A game he never played. Now Richter has a chance to regain his fame, and even more ways to gain strength. But he'll have to combat monsters, interstellar beings, revenge, and his own lack of knowledge before he gets anywhere close. It's a whole new ball game, and Richter's just getting started. ...And maybe he'll pick up some new disciples along the way. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for reading!

Todos los humanos en la Tierra fueron transformados en monstruos invocados y fueron convocados a otro mundo. Cada monstruo invocado solo tenía una vida y fue dotado con una habilidad desde el principio. Las habilidades iban desde Cuchilla de Viento hasta Bola de Fuego, Flecha de Hielo, Escudo Guardián, Curación, Ilusión, y así sucesivamente. Li Xuan también fue convocado a otro mundo, pero su habilidad era el Sistema de Resurrección Ilimitada. Cada vez que revivía, obtendría otra habilidad. Ese fue el nacimiento del monstruo invocado más temible en ese mundo. Simplemente se autodestruiría si la pelea no estaba a su favor y comenzaría a coleccionar nuevas habilidades al hacerlo. Cuando Li Xuan finalmente creció hasta convertirse en un ser intocable, había formado un contrato con una princesa por accidente. Ese día, la princesa se paró en la muralla de la ciudad y miró la oleada de monstruos que se abalanzaba sobre su ciudad. Se sacrificó por desesperación para salvar a su gente y el cielo de repente se oscureció. Una figura tan aterradora como el mismo Dios rasgó el cielo y miró las vidas que estaban debajo de él. El mundo quedó en silencio mientras miraban al ser con los ojos muy abiertos. Incluso los millones de monstruos que se dirigían hacia la ciudad quedaron atónitos por la aparición del ser.

Chaque humain sur Terre a été transformé en monstre invoqué et a été convoqué dans un autre monde. Chaque monstre invoqué n'avait qu'une seule vie et était doté d'une capacité dès le départ. Les capacités allaient de Lame de Vent à Boule de Feu, Flèche de Glace, Bouclier Gardien, Guérison, Illusion, etc. Li Xuan a également été convoqué dans un autre monde, mais sa capacité était le Système de Réincarnation Illimité. Chaque fois qu'il ressuscitait, il obtenait une autre capacité. Ce fut la naissance du monstre invoqué le plus redoutable de ce monde. Il se faisait simplement exploser si le combat n'était pas en sa faveur et commençait à recueillir de nouvelles capacités ainsi. Lorsque Li Xuan a finalement grandi pour devenir un être intouchable, il a accidentellement formé un contrat avec une princesse. Ce jour-là, la princesse se tenait sur le mur de la ville et regardait la vague de monstres qui se précipitait vers sa ville. Elle s'est sacrifiée par désespoir pour sauver son peuple et le ciel est soudainement devenu sombre. Une figure aussi terrifiante que Dieu lui-même a déchiré le ciel et a regardé les vies qui étaient en dessous de lui. Le monde est devenu silencieux alors qu'ils regardaient l'être avec des yeux écarquillés. Même les millions de monstres qui se précipitaient vers la ville ont été stupéfaits par l'apparition de l'être.

Winged beasts with a hundred-meter wingspan swooped from the skies above. Bloodthirsty creatures weaved and leapt between skyscrapers, in search of prey. Thunderous beasts shrouded in lightning took steps that shook the earth with each stride. Humans hid, trembling in the city ruins, praying for the protection of the World Tree. Outside the city, a gargantuan tree that eclipsed the sun, opened its eyes. "This is the city under my sanctuary. Leave, or meet your death!" In an instant, all beasts submitted. PS: Mutated Animals + Lord genre! Early-stage main storyline: Tame Mutated Animals and establish power. In the mid to late stages, the protagonist can transform into a human.

People got a planet in the beginning and what to do with it was up to them. Wang Yi, a young man in the 21st century, coincidentally transmigrated into a world where everyone had the opportunity to awaken a planet. The larger the diameter of the planet, the more advanced the energy transformed, and the more powerful the civilization created. Some people obtained the planet's energy as " Martial True Qi" and used the creation sandbox to create a martial civilization, and the people on the planet were all martial artists. Some people get the planet's energy as "Immortal True Energy" and use the creation sandbox to create an immortal civilization, and the people on the planet were all cultivators! Some people obtained the energy of the planet as "Fighting Qi", and used the creation sandbox to create the civilization of Fighting Qi, and people on the planet are all fighters! Some people obtained the energy of the planet as "Soul Power", and used the creation sandbox to create the Soul Path Civilization, and the people on the planet were all Soul Masters! ... Everyone was struggling to evolve a magical civilization system. Wang Yi, however, used his past life memories to start evolving an "Primordial" civilization! "Your world-extinguishing laser cannon is powerful, but I have the son of the Great Dao, Pan Gu! One axe will reduce your world to naught!" "Your thousands of angels are powerful, but I have three thousand Chaos Demon Gods to beat you in a minute!" "Your army of darkness is awesome, but I have the Buddha's Paramount Sage, who will defeat you in a minute!" "..." This was a story of how the Primordial civilization crushed various transcendent civilizations.
