"System?" Li Wei called out in his mind.
Almost immediately, a translucent window appeared in his view.

Li Wei's mind was buzzing with excitement as he inspected the translucent window that had appeared in his view.
"Current world?" Li Wei muttered to himself, his curiosity piqued.
"Can I go back to my previous world?"
He scrolled through the various tabs on the window, examining his stats with fascination.
"Energy is like the general term for everything, while Qi and Dao Qi are specific types of energy related to martial arts," he muttered.
As he continued to read, a sense of excitement began to well up inside him.
"Looks like this is a cultivation world," he thought with anticipation. "I may actually become a cool cultivator!"
His mind wandered off to images of himself doing the things that protagonists in cultivation novels did - practicing martial arts every day, meditating for hours on end, and battling against powerful enemies.
He envisioned himself breaking through to higher realms of cultivation, acquiring legendary treasures, and ultimately becoming a legend in the cultivation world.
"Maybe I'll even get a harem," he mused, a sly grin spreading across his face.
"But first, I need to figure out how to cultivate."
As he perused the Skills tab, Li Wei's excitement waned slightly at the realization that he only possessed a single basic martial arts technique, Qigong.
"Well, I suppose it's better than nothing. At least it can help me run faster," he reasoned.
His attention then shifted to the Abilities tab, where he noticed an ability named mental resistance listed under newbie protection period.
"So, this ability helped me just now huh? Guess it's from this newbie protection stuff," he concluded.
His eyes then moved down to the Perks tab, where he saw that he had attractiveness listed at level 6.
"Wait, what? Attractiveness? No wonder that woman and guy were all over me!" Li Wei exclaimed, a grin spreading across his face.
"If it's this good at just level 6, imagine what it'll be like at level 10!"
"And check this out," he continued, moving on to the next thing on the perks tab.
"I have a high-grade cultivation root! Looks like the system is telling me to be someone great in this world!"
As Li Wei's eyes scanned through his inventory, they landed on the first item, a red Dudou.
"D-Dudou?" he muttered in bewilderment, unable to comprehend why he had such an item in his possession.
He couldn't help but wonder if his previous self had a secret fetish for cross-dressing.
[-Red Dudou x1]
'Let's see how it looks...' he muttered to himself.
As he clicked on the item, it materialized out of thin air and dropped into his open palm. The fabric was a vibrant shade of crimson, its silky texture soft to the touch.
The red color made it appear provocative, and he felt a flush spread across his cheeks as he thought about what others would think if they saw him with it.
Suddenly, he noticed that a name was embroidered on it, and he traced his finger along the stitching. It spelled out a name: "Xue Ying".
"Who's Xue Ying?" he wondered, feeling a little concerned about the implications of possessing something that belonged to someone else.
He quickly shoved it back into his inventory, lest it got him into trouble.
Then Li Wei stared at the experience bar on his status screen, trying to make sense of what it meant.
"Experience: 15/100," he muttered under his breath.
"What does that even mean? Is it the amount of Qi I've accumulated to break through to the next level?"
He pondered over the thought for a moment, trying to remember what he had read about cultivation worlds in his previous lives.
"But wait, why isn't my Dao Qi shown in the experience bar? Is it not a part of the cultivation process?"
Suddenly, the door to the room burst open, and Wu Xiang stumbled out, looking disheveled and exhausted.
Li Wei's gaze followed Wu Xiang's path towards the room, and he was met with a shocking sight.
The room was in disarray, with clothes and undergarments strewn haphazardly about the floor.
Li Wei's gaze trailed down the figures of the four women as he tried to look away but couldn't.
Their skin, smooth and flawless, glistened in the dim light of the room.
The curves of their bodies were tantalizing, accentuated by the way they lay sprawled out on the bed.
The cool breeze caused their exposed flesh to prickle with goosebumps, making them look even more alluring.
Li Wei felt a heat rise within him as he hastily tore his eyes away from the sight.
"Let's go, Li Feng," Wu Xiang's voice commanded, as he strode confidently towards the exit of the brothel.
His broad shoulders were straight, and his chin was held high.
As he walked, he expertly adjusted his clothing back into place, while Li Wei hurried to catch up with him, muttering curses under his breath.
"Son of a bitch, acting like he's achieved something great..." Li Wei grumbled bitterly.
