For five years, I've lived the life of a failure. Smashing my hands against the wooden target in hopes of entering a meditative state; a necessary step to becoming a cultivator. For five years, I've faced nothing but disappointment, looks of pity, and meager attempts at encouragement. But everything has to come to an end. An end, that for me, became a new beginning! Circuits, wires, and capacitors? Or maybe spirit powder, Spricur crystals, and Qi gathering formations? In a world where cultivation is, for most, merely a hobby and the worlds of mysticism and science are divided, I shall be the one to craft a bridge between the two! Why rely on ancient arrays to harness dense Qi? Isn't it easier to buy one of my converters, plug it into the wall, and be done with it? Is your gaming console malfunctioning, yet no tech shop can find the cause? Have you tried this the exorcising swatter 3.0? And you! Yes, you, the one whose reflection appears on the screen on your phone once you block it! Why would you buy static figurines if you can come to my shop... And get your hands on waifus that will actively flirt with you? Come all ye troubled souls, and allow this God to craft a solution to all your problems! ***Technical side of things*** Daily release: 2ch/day Sunday release: 3ch + accumulated bonus chapters from mass release goals listed below ////////////All Milestones are subject to change/////////////// For every 100 winwin unlocks: 2 bonus chapters For every 50 ps: 1 bonus chapter For every 3 reviews: 1 bonus chapter Supergifts: 3 bonus chapters Me having a good day: 1 bonus, not-mass release chapter a day on days it applies >.>

An ordinary man who want to enter the world of writing novels, trying to take part in a novel writing competition, but suddenly his soul got transmigrated into the world of novel writing contest themes.

Academy novels. If you take notice, most of them are about nameless characters, professors, and villains. And another aspect is that there is only one academy or that same academy is declared the strongest. However, Aestrea, a successful award-winning actor, actually gets transmigrated into one of those novels. Instead, he finds himself transmigrated into the body of the most powerful student at the Weakest Academy. Just at the time of the academy's competition...

From time immemorial, humans possessed one trait that every other species envied—adaptability. No matter their challenges, humans can always advance, adapt, and turn adversity into an advantage. This ability made every other species in the universe fearful. By the time they discovered this small species emerging from a relatively insignificant solar system in the Milky Way, it was already too late. In just 3,000 years, humans dominated planets, colonized a third of the Milky Way, and rose to become one of the galaxy's top species—an achievement almost unheard of. Fearing humanity's relentless potential, all other civilizations allied and launched an unending war against the humans. For a time, they seemed to be winning. But then, a man emerged—someone who created something even the aliens were too terrified to attempt. Energy. He crafted energy that defied the known laws of the universe. From nothing, he made matter, and with this, humanity advanced faster than ever before. The slaughter that the aliens had inflicted on their race ended, and humanity took its revenge. The man was known only as Alan. No one knew his true identity. After changing the world—for better or worse—he vanished without a trace, and no one ever found him. Three hundred years later, the Human World Alliance faced a new threat: betrayal and greed. As corruption slowly crept into human society, the aliens prepared to exploit their opportunity. -- 30 Consecutive powerstones: 3 chapter release 60 Consecutive powerstones: small mass release 100 Consecutive powerstones: Medium mass release 150 Consecutive powerstones: Mass release. -- Cover:AI
