[WSA ENTRY 2025] In a world where power reigns supreme, Zoey Monroe was born with nothing. Labeled "Mana-less" in a society of Hunters, she was the stain on the prestigious Monroe Family, a shame to one of Sunrow City's most powerful bloodlines.

Adjusting...] [Ding! Installing the A Hundred Times System!] In an instant, Zoey's fate is rewritten. From outcast to overpowered, from weakling to warrior—the path to greatness has begun.

Before the world was shaped by the hands of gods, before legends were carved into history, there was only chaos—a time where strength ruled and mortals were mere specks beneath the divine. In this era, a single mortal was born. He had no name, no destiny, and no blessings from the heavens. Yet, in a world where power determined one’s fate, he chose to carve his own path. Through hardship and battle, he would rise—not by divine will, but by his own strength. This is the tale of the one who stood against gods, who shattered limits placed upon mortals, and who ascended beyond all expectations. A story of struggle, defiance, and ultimate power— The story of how the strongest became the strongest.

Hello! This is my first attempt at writing a novel, so I expect there may be some mistakes along the way. I would be very grateful if you could highlight any errors, as your feedback would be incredibly helpful for my development as a writer. Thank you for taking the time to check out my story; your support means a great deal to me. In this tale, we explore a world where the most powerful beings are as small as ants. The story follows the supreme gods and their father as they venture into this mysterious realm, searching for answers to the strange circumstances that have brought them down to this lower plane. What secrets does this world hold, and what led the supreme gods to this place? As they journey through the landscape, they face formidable enemies and potential allies, each possessing their own unique abilities and goals. This novel is closely tied to another story, but it primarily focuses on the complexities of world-building, the vastness of cosmology, and the exploration of overpowered characters, among other themes. Through rich descriptions and engaging storytelling, I hope to weave a captivating narrative that draws readers into the depths of this extraordinary universe. Your insights and constructive criticism will be crucial in helping me improve my writing, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts. Thank you once again for your interest in my novel!

The year is 2088, and the world is still healing from a catastrophe that struck three decades ago. No one remembers exactly how it started, and every trace of its origins has mysteriously disappeared. What causes it? Is it over? Ren, an 11-year-old boy with a restless mind, moves to Japan with his nursing mother, struggling to fit into his new school. He prefers questions over rules. But when he stumbles upon an old science book, he discovers something chilling—an entry about the "Flash of Memories After Death": a phenomenon where, for seven minutes after death, the brain replays a person’s memories. Is it really just seven minutes? Or does time bend in those final moments? What does a dying person truly see? And why does no one talk about it? As he turns the page, his breath catches. A sentence—familiar yet distant—sends a shiver through him. A prophecy. A warning. His hands shake as the words slip from his lips, barely above a whisper: “This isn’t over… The worst is yet to come. The chosens, will-” Suddenly, His head hurts so much. Questions flood his mind. What does it mean? Why does this feel like more than just a coincidence? Could the lost history of the catastrophe be connected to something even more terrifying? The past wasn’t just forgotten?

On the struggling Tier 2 colony world of Eros-7, Raizen Izumoto has no past—only the present and his will to survive. His first memory is of being abandoned on the planet, with no knowledge of his origins, only a mysterious necklace left behind by an unknown father. Unbeknownst to him, he is the last heir of a fallen Tier 9 ruling family, and within him lies a dormant draconic bloodline, waiting to awaken. At fifteen, his life changes forever. In the midst of a VR battlefield competition—where students fight in high-tech spaceship battles and brutal 1v1 body cultivation duels—his necklace surges with power, activating the Draconic Ascendancy System. A system unlike any other, it grants him strength, knowledge, and an unshakable destiny. But this power comes with conditions—he must complete tasks, grow stronger, and uncover the truth of his lineage. With every battle, every conquest, and every new bond he forms, Raizen unlocks more of his suppressed draconic nature. His system-driven evolution not only grants him unparalleled combat prowess but also an irresistible dominance over women, binding them to his fate. As he rises through the tiers of civilization, expanding his influence and building his clan, the mystery of his past begins to unfold—leading him toward a destiny that could shake the very foundation of the galaxy. Power, betrayal, ambition, and the hunger for dominance—Raizen’s rise has only just begun.

The System defined the fate of the world. For the lucky, it is the key to power. For the unlucky, it is a death sentence. Kiyen was born without a System, without opportunities, without a future. To save his mother, he throws himself into the mines, the place where the weak disappear. But when his survival instinct pushes him beyond his limits, something impossible happens.

Caden Ryker doesn’t remember his childhood, nor does he know if he ever had one. All he remembers are the cold, sterile experiments conducted by the U.S. to transform him—making him stronger, faster, and more lethal than any other human. Trained to be a weapon, he was molded into a killing machine.

In a world where gods rule the heavens, the Abyss hungers for dominion, and mortals struggle for power, a forgotten legend returns from the Rift. Once a powerless outcast, he was cast into the void—left to die, erased from history. But instead of perishing, he emerged reborn, wielding a force beyond comprehension: Voidforged Sovereignty. Neither god nor abyssal entity, he stands outside the natural laws of existence, his very presence an anomaly feared by all. Now, as the Eternal Dominion tightens its grip on reality and the Abyssal Lords prepare for war, he walks the path of vengeance and conquest. But in the shadows beyond gods and mortals, something far more ancient stirs—the Boundless Ones, beings that transcend reality itself. With every battle, his power grows. With every fallen foe, his legend spreads. But will his ascension bring salvation to the world… or its ultimate destruction?

The story takes place in the Nine Heavens Realm, a vast world filled with sects, ancient clans, and powerful cultivators. The realm is divided into Lower, Middle, and Upper Heavens, each with its own hierarchy of power. The protagonist starts in the Lower Heavens, where he is mocked and bullied for his ugliness, but through his journey, he ascends to the highest levels of power. --- Main Character Name: Luo Feng Appearance: Luo Feng is born with a hideous appearance—his face is scarred, his body is deformed, and he is often compared to a "monster" or "beast." His ugliness is so extreme that even his family shuns him. Personality: Despite his appearance, Luo Feng is kind-hearted, intelligent, and resilient. He has a strong will to prove himself and refuses to let his looks define his worth. "Cultivation Talent": Luo Feng possesses a unique cultivation talent that no one recognizes at first. His body, though ugly, is a rare vessel for an ancient, forgotten cultivation technique called the "Celestial Asura Scripture". This technique allows him to absorb energy from pain, suffering, and rejection, making him stronger with every hardship he endures. --- Cultivation System: The cultivation system is divided into Realms and Stages, with each realm requiring immense effort and breakthroughs. Luo Feng’s cultivation path is unique because his ugliness and suffering become the source of his power. 1. Mortal Realm - Qi Gathering - Body Refinement - Foundation Establishment 2. Earthly Realm - Core Formation - Nascent Soul - Soul Transformation 3. Heavenly Realm - Void Refinement - Dao Seeking - Immortal Ascension 4. Celestial Realm (Luo Feng’s ultimate goal) - Celestial Sovereign - Asura Emperor - Eternal Ascendant
