Daniel Mercer is a broke math major at a public U.S. university, stuck working exhausting jobs and wondering if his degree is good for anything at all. Academia talks a big game about opportunity—but doesn’t make it easy to survive.
After a sudden accident, Daniel wakes up to the Scholar Advancement System, a strange framework that turns learning and research into something measurable and unforgiving. No cheats, no instant genius—just missions, progress, and hard limits.
This is a fanfiction reimagining of Scholar Advancement Technology System, set in the American education and research world, following one student’s long, difficult climb from obscurity to influence.

This story is a fanfiction reimagining Scholar Advancement Technology System by Morning Star LL.


It is not a translation, rewrite, or official adaptation.


The core idea, system structure, and progression trajectory are preserved, but everything else—protagonist, setting, dialogue, humor, and cultural context—has been rebuilt from the ground up and re-set in the American academic and research environment.


Think of it as the same experiment conducted in a different country, under different institutions, with different pressures—but following the same scientific logic.
