In the blink of an eye.
Six years had passed.
The annual day of martial soul awakening had come around again.
At that moment, deep within the imperial palace of the Star Luo Empire, in an enormous palace courtyard, a boy dressed in fine robes sat upright on a meditation cushion, cultivating quietly.

Naturally, as a transmigrator, he had the indispensable cheat.
