THE_WORDSMITH

Loose cultivator Shi Lang gradually found himself in the realm of invincibility. However, when he finally tried to ascend to the higher realm, the spirit of the world was nearly exhausted.

So, between his ascension to a new world or the well-being of his home, he chose the latter and sacrificed his life to save the world.

Nobody knew what he gave up for the world, and he told no one. 

Although his sacrifice had gone unsung, there was still someone who witnessed everything.  A treasured artifact he carried on his body preserved his soul and let it escape a tragic end.

Eons passed.

The human race stepped out from the age of cultivation into an age of stellar conquest. 

The spirit energy in the world was now scarce, but humans found other means to excel.

In this highly-advanced time, Shi Lang's soul has found a chance to be reborn. 

What happens when an ancient cultivator that neared the level of a deity before his first death gets a second chance at life in the space age?

Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang watched as the students left the school. He went back into the building to finish his work and a teacher from the advanced class asked, "Teacher Shi, what do you think will be the outcome of the duel tomorrow?"

The young general did not care and with a faint smile he said, "May the best one wins."

The man thought Shi Lang had given up, and said, "Indeed, the advanced class is the best."

Shi Lang shrugged his shoulders and did not bother to correct the man. It was not his place to do so, because the result tomorrow will speak for itself. The man saw this and packing his stuff he left the staff room. Another teacher asked, "Teacher Shi, I wonder if you have given up on your students?"

Shi Lang shook his head and replied, "That is not true, I am not a person, who would give up on my students."

The man continued to ask, "Then why did you not correct him?"

Before The Duel.
