Synopsis
Su Yi is transported to a world ravaged by divine beings and monsters. After being branded a failure as a summoner and abandoned by his girlfriend, he awakens a system based on the Shan Hai Jing. This enables him to command legendary beasts and challenge the gods for dominance. It reads like a high-stakes power fantasy utilizing the 'zero-to-hero' trope, similar to creature-collection LitRPGs. This is for readers who enjoy rapid progression and the satisfaction of seeing an underdog dominate their critics. Those looking for nuanced character arcs or a slow-burn plot should skip it. The pacing is aggressive, focusing on the steady accumulation of mythic summons and the systematic dismantling of the protagonist's enemies. The standout quality is the sheer scale of the legendary creatures Su Yi commands as he climbs the social hierarchy.

Editorial Review
The narrative's primary strength lies in its integration of the Shan Hai Jing, which offers a rich, structured catalog of mythic creatures that give the progression system a distinct flavor. However, the story struggles with originality in its characterization; the 'discarded genius' and 'cold-hearted ex' are tired tropes that offer little in the way of emotional depth. With 144 chapters currently available, the work has successfully established its power scaling, but the low engagement signals suggest it may lack the unique hook needed to stand out in a crowded genre. While categorized as science fiction, the actual experience is that of a traditional summoning fantasy. It provides a steady stream of payoffs for fans of the genre, though it rarely deviates from the expected path of an underdog's ascent to godhood.
