MTLNOVEL Chapter 1: Chapter 1: Rebirth as the Grass That Defies Fate
Pain.
That was the first thing Tang Xuan felt. A splitting headache, like his skull had been cracked open and his brain was being rearranged.
Then, the flood of memories came.
He wasn't just Tang Xuan, a six-year-old orphan from a small village—he was also someone from another world, a world of science and logic, where cultivation and spirits didn't exist.
And now, he was here. In Douluo Dalu.
As the memories settled, so did a realization that sent a cold chill through his spine.
His martial spirit was Blue Silver Grass.
For a moment, he almost laughed. The weakest, most useless spirit had been thrust upon him.
But he quickly calmed himself.
Power is not determined by what you are given, but by what you make of it.
And unlike everyone else in this world, he had knowledge. Knowledge that would make him stronger than any genius, even without a golden finger, a divine bloodline, or some ancient inheritance.
He had science, strategy, and an unbreakable will.
And he would use them to shatter this world's expectations.
Spirit Awakening Day
Inside the village's Spirit Hall, a group of children stood nervously, awaiting their turn. At the center of the hall was a middle-aged Spirit Master from Spirit Hall, holding a crystal orb.
One by one, the children placed their hands on the orb, their martial spirits awakening in flashes of light.
A boy in front of Tang Xuan laughed excitedly. "Wow! I awakened a War Tiger! The elder says it's a strong beast martial spirit!"
Another girl revealed a Water Snake, her eyes filled with delight.
Finally, it was Tang Xuan's turn.
As soon as he placed his hand on the orb, a soft green glow emerged, and thin strands of grass sprouted from his palm.
The hall fell silent.
"Blue Silver Grass," the Spirit Master said with visible disappointment. "A trash spirit. And your innate spirit power is... only rank 3."
The whispers and snickers from the other children began immediately.
"What a waste!"
"He'll never become a Spirit Master!"
"Even a rank 3 War Tiger would crush him!"
But Tang Xuan only smiled.
Idiots.
These people only saw Blue Silver Grass as weak because they lacked the knowledge to make it strong. But he was different.
This world relied too much on talent and fate, but he would rely on something stronger—his mind.
