Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: My cheat's finally here

In a dim alley of Spirit City on the Douluo Continent, a frail young man was being mercilessly beaten under the foot of a taller youth.

[Detected that you are on the verge of death. The God-Level Cheat System has begun loading for you. 3, 2, 1—loading successful!]

[Host detected in near-death condition. Emergency protection activated! Injuries are being healed, and spatial teleportation initiated.]

As the mechanical voice of the system faded, the thin boy vanished from beneath the tall youth's foot.

Meanwhile, deep within the Blue Silver Forest in the southwest of the Douluo Continent…

After an unknown amount of time, the boy slowly opened his eyes. His vision sharpened, revealing a dense forest shimmering with streaks of blue and gold.

"Did I… transmigrate again?"

The young man—Fu Ye—was momentarily dazed.

As a transmigrator from Blue Star, he had arrived in the Douluo Continent over a decade ago. However, he hadn't expected to arrive too early—landing in the era of Bibi Dong.

His innate talent was good—a ninth-level soul power with the martial soul Sword Bamboo.

Humble, low-key, and socially adept, he had earned favor within the Spirit Hall. He often accompanied high-ranking officials for tea and leisurely strolls, living a comfortable life.

But everything shattered the moment Yu Xiaogang, the young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, appeared.

The man had repeatedly accused him of plagiarism, claiming Fu Ye had stolen his theories—when in truth, Yu Xiaogang was the one who had stolen basic knowledge from Fu Ye's past life on Blue Star.

Though furious, Fu Ye hadn't lost his temper. After all, the stolen knowledge was elementary.

Fortunately, the public wasn't blind—the Spirit Hall's higher-ups recognized Yu Xiaogang's true nature and continued to honor Fu Ye.

Yet, he never anticipated that Yu Xiaogang would use his family's influence to bribe low-ranking Spirit Hall officials.

Fu Ye was imprisoned in a dark cellar, forced to write down everything he knew.

Later, Yu Xiaogang forged documents of Fu Ye's "voluntary resignation" from the Spirit Hall, bribing and threatening witnesses.

For over half a year, Fu Ye remained trapped. Once Yu Xiaogang deemed him useless, he severed Fu Ye's tendons, crippled his cultivation, cut out his tongue, and abandoned him in a desolate alley.

Every day, Yu Xiaogang returned—not to check if he was dead, but to beat and humiliate him further.

Fu Ye understood the reason: envy.

Yu Xiaogang, a noble-born sect young master, couldn't stand being outshone by a commoner like Fu Ye—whether in talent, intellect, or skill.

Of course, Fu Ye never revealed the true depths of his past-life knowledge. He fed Yu Xiaogang a flawed version of his theories—half of it deliberately incorrect.

Now, Fu Ye's body surged with the soul power of a 47th-level Soul Ancestor.

At seventeen years old, he was supposed to be a rising star—many elders had predicted he'd at least reach Soul Douluo one day.

But before he could process his situation, a translucent system screen materialized before him:

[Overall Rating: Why bother evaluating? With this cheat, you're unstoppable!]

"A god-tier cheat? Instant upgrades… and free items?"

Fu Ye stood frozen for a long moment before hesitantly tapping his level.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host. Level increased to 48.]

Power flooded his veins. A single tear rolled down his cheek.

"Thirty years in East and thirty years in West… Yu Xiaogang, you tortured me for so long, tried to kill me—if I don't make your life a living hell, I'll take your damn surname!"

His fingers moved like a machine, rapidly clicking the system prompts.

[Ding! Level 49.]

[Ding! Level 50.]

[…]

[Ding! Level 99.]

[Warning: Proceeding beyond Level 100 will trigger forced ascension to the Divine Realm. Continue?]

'Forced ascension? No thanks.'

"Can you max me out just below god-level?"

[Ding! Host's strength has reached Quasi-God.]

[Note: 99th Level – Divided into Quasi-Demigod, Demigod, and Quasi-God).]

Fu Ye clenched his fists. He could topple mountains and part seas with a mere thought.

But his soul rings still needed upgrading.

A smirk curled his lips as he adjusted their age limits.

[All soul rings upgraded to 100,000 years.]

[200,000 years.]

[…]

[990,000 years.]

[Ding! Million-year soul rings attract divine attention. System has auto-mitigated risks. Proceed with caution.]

'This system is way too convenient.'

Next, he browsed the System Shop—a dazzling array of zero-cost items.

[God-Granted Soul Ring (Fine Quality)]

[Stock: 99,999]

[Cost: 0 (Max 10 per withdrawal)]

Fu Ye casually claimed a few.

[Auto-absorption available. Proceed?]

His eyes widened.

'This cheat… really lives up to its god-tier title.'
