Peerless King of Another World

Peerless King of Another World is a fantasy transmigration novel by the web author Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng, completed on Qidian on May 21, 2009. It runs to 465 chapters, roughly 1.4257 million characters. The protagonist, Lan Feng, was originally a sophomore in a modern university's psychology department. His family passed down an ordinary tortoise-breathing exercise, and in order to practice it he took up hypnosis—only to push his hypnotic skill to a world-class level. A teaching-building explosion triggered by a chemistry lab kills him as he sleeps in a corner of a classroom; his consciousness transmigrates to the Holy Land Continent of another world and possesses a declining noble youth of the same name. In this world, Lan Feng is the son of a general; after his father's death he has only a barely maintained noble title and a small courtyard, lives in poverty, and carries a marriage contract and various campus troubles. The reborn Lan Feng soon discovers that this body's eyes seem to hide a special power that can influence others, a power that subsequently becomes the key to his standing in the other world and is regarded as a "king's skill." He uses inner force to drive magic-crystal weapons and uses poison to stimulate faster cultivation of inner force, maneuvering among the noble academy and the powers of the continent's various nations, starting from securing food and clothing and dealing with his marriage contract and campus conflicts, and step by step moving toward a broader stage. The work takes "a king is peerless, proud and alone under heaven" as its core theme and builds a level system from low-ranking martial artists to the saint tier, combining hot-blooded battle with a light, humorous narrative style.
