Lin Ran's handsome face made a stunning first impression as he flashed a mischievous grin and pulled out a student ID card. Then, without missing a beat, he launched into his spiel.
"Hey bro, ever been to college? Check out Jingda University—985, 211, top-tier education! No scams, no regrets—rap@#�0�6%!"
To the rhythm of an upbeat track, iconic images of Jingda’s campus flashed in perfect sync. Lin Ran posed in front of every landmark, surrounded by bright-eyed underclassmen radiating sunshine.
The moment this admissions video dropped, the internet went wild, competitors lost their minds, the principal shed a tear, and the admissions office blocked his number.
You know what they say—if you don’t feel awkward, the awkwardness belongs to someone else.
[LustSticky]: Holy crap, what kind of sick rap is this? I’m hooked. I wanna get into Jingda, meet Lin Ran, and simp for him.
[BossyLandladyInLove]: LOL, I’m dead. Since when was Lin Ran this hilarious?
[ChaosAndCluck]: Lin Ran really went all out for his alma mater’s admissions campaign.
[My62-Year-OldTenant]: This is so absurdly catchy—I memorized it after one watch.
Principal Tang saw the video too.
Honestly, his cerebellum shriveled a little at first glance.
But after scrolling through the comments, the old man’s lips curled up like a hooked fish.
Meanwhile, the admissions office phones exploded with inquiries.
Leaning back in his chair, Principal Tang basked in the vibrant colors of his suddenly brighter world.
Admissions Director: "Principal, isn’t it too early to go this hard with recruitment? Feels a bit excessive."
Principal Tang wagged a single finger smugly.
"You don’t get it. To compete with elite universities, we have to move first. Lin Ran just handed us a massive advantage."
The director sighed in awe. Never in his wildest dreams did he think recruiting could be this effortless.
"True. Being the husband of the top chaebol heiress really comes with perks. Dude’s practically carrying our entire office. Next year’s applicant pool is gonna be stacked."
Meanwhile, Lin Ran’s fame at Jingda skyrocketed—not just because of the video, but because he dominated five of the university’s ten prestigious rankings.
Jingda had a tradition: each semester, ten rankings were updated, with freshmen sometimes dethroning seniors. Graduates would eventually leave the lists, but their legends lived on.
This time, Lin Ran topped five charts, while Lin Jian, Liu Ruxue, and Zhang Xiaonuan claimed one each. The remaining two spots were split among others.
[Jingda’s #1 Heartthrob — Lin Ran]
[Jingda’s #1 Simp — Lin Ran]
[Jingda’s #1 Playboy — Lin Ran]
[Jingda’s #1 Slacker — Lin Ran]
[Jingda’s #1 Tycoon — Lin Ran]
Four of these were new additions. Only [Jingda’s #1 Simp] had been his unchallenged throne for three years.
Lin Ran’s face darkened as he left a comment under the rankings:
[Lin Ran: Can we move on from the cringe? I’ve got a weak stomach now—might puke.]
The student body howled with laughter.
Of course, no ranking had just one name, but the other nine weren’t worth mentioning.
After all, in this world, who remembers second place?
Lin Ran could accept most of the titles—except [Jingda’s #1 Slacker]. He was an honor student!
Then he saw the reasoning and choked.
He’d skipped every lecture and barely set foot on campus all semester. Students labeled his absenteeism as peak slacker behavior. Lin Ran wanted to argue but had no defense.
Scanning the other rankings, he burst out laughing.
[Jingda’s #1 Scholar — Zhang Xiaonuan]
No one expected this freshman to rise so fast. Not only did she ace every class, but she also led Jingda to victory in a major competition, leaving rival Tsinghua with silver. The "scholar" title was well-earned.
[Jingda’s #1 Joke — Lin Jian]
"Damn, who voted for this? Absolute legends," Lin Ran cackled.
[Jingda’s #1 Heartbreaker — Liu Ruxue]
"Pfft—" Lin Ran spat out his drink. He never thought he’d see Liu Ruxue’s name here.
She’d made the "Campus Belle" list twice but never topped it. Back then, Lin Ran had reassured her, "Ruxue, you’ll always be the most beautiful to me. Those voters have no taste."
Now, remembering those words, he shuddered.
"Ugh. So gross."
Technically, Lin Jian and Liu Ruxue were no longer students at Jingda University, so they shouldn’t have been eligible for the university’s ranking lists. But if the titles were "Biggest Joke" and "Most Notorious Heartbreaker," then it somehow made sense.
【Jingda University’s Top Campus Belle — Ai Xianbai】
【Jingda University’s Most Notorious Heartbreaker — Yu Chengqun】
"Hmm, these two have been dominating the lists as usual, no surprises there… Wait, what?"
"Why is there an eleventh ranking this year? And why does it only have two names, one of which is mine?"
【Jingda University’s Second Most Devoted — Lin Ran】
Lin Ran was instantly furious. How could he only be the second most devoted to Yao Yao? He had to see who ranked above him.
【Jingda University’s Most Devoted — You Qingnan】
"Alright, I can’t even argue with this one. I might not think anyone could outdo my devotion, but this guy’s definitely a legend in his own right. Fine, I’ll let him have it. These silly rankings are just something students made for fun anyway."
While Lin Ran was scrolling through his classmates’ comments, his admissions video had already gone viral across the internet.
But students from other universities were stunned.
No one had expected that, months before the admissions season even started, Jingda University would launch a campaign this early—with Lin Ran, the internet’s hottest sensation, as its spokesperson.
And with such an absurdly catchy video.
"What the… Jingda’s gone full meme mode. Where’s our admissions office? I’m not asking you to outdo them, but at least copy them! Get in touch with our alumni in the internet industry and have them film something too!"
Soon after, a wave of viral, meme-style admissions videos flooded the nation.
Lin Ran was the one who started this trend.
In his past life, it had been a senior who kicked it off. But this time, Lin Ran had given his alma mater the first-mover advantage.
No matter how popular other universities’ videos became, none could match the hype of Lin Ran’s original.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
