Chapter 1: Transmigration, Not Rebirth!
Chapter 1: Transmigration, Not Rebirth!
The sky was overcast, as if it might rain at any moment.
On the school grounds, thousands of high school students stood motionless, awaiting their fates.
Everyone was tense!
Except for Zhao Zheng.
He gazed at the students around him, all dressed in the same school uniform, and felt the vitality of his youthful body. A delighted smile spread across his face.
'Have I...reincarnated?'
'From 2024, straight back to my school days?'
'This is...amazing!'
'Thank goodness, I get to relive my youth. This time, I must live well, earn the most money, and date the prettiest girls!!'
Zhao Zheng was thrilled.
His current situation seemed to fit the description of reincarnation.
He even started planning his path to success in this new life! He could become a copywriter, plagiarizing popular novels and classic songs from the future to make his first fortune. With money in hand, he could buy BT coins and invest in projects that would thrive in the future. Or perhaps he could start his own business, creating successful internet companies ahead of their time...
This was how the reincarnated characters in those novels did it.
As Zhao Zheng's mind wandered, a conversation among some students nearby caught his attention.
"Did you hear? Yesterday, someone from Erzhong Middle School obtained a Nature Type Devil Fruit in the Holy Land and was immediately recruited by Jing University."
"I know, it's all over the news. The Mayor personally visited their family and awarded them a bonus. It's like a crow turning into a phoenix."
"So envious! I hope I can get a Nature Type Devil Fruit today!"
"Damn! Who's daydreaming? Wake him up!"
"You're quite the dreamer, huh? Only a few Nature Type Devil Fruits appear each year. Getting an ordinary Superman Type Fruit would already be great."
"Hey, which is better, a Devil Fruit or an Extraordinary Heritage?"
"Isn't this debate settled already? Extraordinary Heritage is limited in potential, except for a few top-tier ones. Devil Fruits are different; even the Superman Type has impressive abilities. Not to mention the invincible Nature Type and the even rarer Beastkin Type..."
"Please let me find an Extraordinary Opportunity in the Holy Land. I'm not asking for much, even a Super Soldier Serum would do."
"Me too, just give me a Spider-Man Gene, I'm terrible at liberal arts, so I'll definitely not get into university. Becoming an Extraordinary Being is my only way out..."
...
Zhao Zheng was utterly confused by these conversations.
Who am I?
Where am I?
What are they talking about?
Although he understood every word they said, the combined context felt so foreign.
This was supposed to be a reincarnation, but why were these unfamiliar elements popping up?
Devil Fruits?
Extraordinary Heritage?
And Super Soldier Serum?
Aren't these things from movies and comics?
'The Devil Fruits they're talking about must be from One Piece, right? And with Extraordinary Heritage, Super Soldier Serum, and Spider-Man Gene...could this be related to American comics?'
'These things are all fictional creations on Earth! How did they appear in the real world?'
Zhao Zheng was baffled.
Suddenly, his brain felt a sharp pain, followed by intense dizziness, causing him to stifle a groan and collapse.
Fragments of unfamiliar memories began to surface in his mind, flashing before his eyes like a slideshow...
His unusual behavior caught the attention of the students around him.
"Damn, someone fainted!"
(End of Chapter 1)
"Old Zhao? Old Zhao?"
"No sun, and he fainted? That's a bit much, isn't it?"
"Stop the chatter and take him to the infirmary, quick!"
The voices of his classmates brought Zhao Zheng back to his senses. He forced himself to stand, saying, "I'm fine."
A classmate with a face full of acne asked with concern, "Old Zhao, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Nothing..." Zhao Zheng managed a strained smile. "I think I got too excited about entering the Holy Land today. I was so worked up that I didn't sleep last night, and I'm really exhausted. I just zoned out for a moment."
Hearing this reason, the students around him nodded in understanding.
In fact, they all knew today was the day they entered the Holy Land, and none of them had slept well the night before.
Many of them had to take sleeping pills to get some rest.
Every person only gets one chance in their lifetime to enter the Holy Land!
If one leaves empty-handed, they can only ever be an ordinary person. In a world filled with danger, being ordinary means living on the edge.
Only by becoming extraordinary can one grasp their destiny.

As Zhao Zheng regained his composure, he appeared unaffected on the surface, but inside, his heart was in turmoil, and he couldn't find peace.
He had just accepted the memories of this body, finally understanding that he wasn't reborn but had crossed over!
He had arrived in an unprecedented world!
In this world, all humans have the chance to enter the "Holy Land" once they come of age.
Within the Holy Land, some extraordinary opportunities are hidden, like the most common "Devil Fruit" and "Extraordinary Heritage."
As long as one can obtain any of these within the Holy Land, they can embark on the path to becoming extraordinary.
Additionally, Zhao Zheng's earlier guess was correct; the Devil Fruit in the Holy Land is indeed the same as the Earth manga "One Piece" Devil Fruit. The Extraordinary Heritage also originates from American comics, both DC and Marvel.
However, this world has no original works related to these, so some things aren't clear to everyone.
Of course, this isn't important.
What one can acquire in the Holy Land is all up to luck!
Even if Zhao Zheng knows about these original works, he can't utilize this knowledge to obtain the opportunity he desires.
In fact, most people leave the Holy Land empty-handed, and only a minority gain extraordinary opportunities.
'What a mystical world!'
Zhao Zheng couldn't help but exclaim.
Then, with anticipation, he hoped to gain something within the Holy Land...
...
Ten minutes later.
The teachers finally arrived.
The principal stood on the stage, beginning a long-winded speech:
"Today is your big day, and it's also a significant day for our school since its establishment... I hope that in the upcoming Holy Land trip, you will all gain something extraordinary! Of course, those who don't obtain an extraordinary opportunity shouldn't be disheartened. In this world, it's not only the extraordinary ones who matter; talents in other fields are equally important too!"
Not a word of this speech sank in as the students had heard it all before.
Indeed, in this world, it's not just about the extraordinary ones. There are more ordinary people than anything else.
For those who don't gain an extraordinary opportunity, they can still take the college entrance exam, continue with university, and upon graduation, they can become the workhorses of society.
But for those who obtain an extraordinary opportunity, they can enter the Extraordinary University without the college entrance exam!
Furthermore, Extraordinary Beings are a highly sought-after and respected profession in today's society. The social status of Extraordinary Beings is also very high.
Moreover, when an Extraordinary Being's power reaches a certain level, they can acquire unimaginable privileges...
In such a situation, who doesn't want to become an Extraordinary Being?
