Master always ignores me [time travel]

Synopsis

A betrayal leads to a catastrophic account deletion that physically erases Chu Li from existence, only to deposit him into a foreign realm equipped with a mysterious system. This new life grants him a prestigious master, though the relationship begins with a frustrating lack of attention. Qi Zipei remains distant and indifferent, leaving his pupil to navigate the complexities of this world in isolation. Forced to abandon his hope for mentorship, Chu Li embraces self-reliance, pushing himself toward the pinnacle of power and status. The tone shifts from a struggle for validation to a triumphant climb, escalating as the protagonist transforms from a neglected student into a formidable force. As Chu Li achieves success on his own terms, the previously cold master begins to view him with newfound, complicated interest. Patient readers will appreciate the shift from neglect to recognition, though the lighthearted approach to systemic power might frustrate those seeking a grim or heavy atmosphere.
