Chapter 2

"Creation software?"

Out of curiosity, Li Minghui tried to use the mental operation method he had learned in the ultra-tech dream world and lightly tapped the icon. Suddenly, Li Minghui discovered that it was actually a mental creation software from that world!

At this moment, Li Minghui couldn't help but have a thousand thoughts. Lost in his imagination, he found himself to have a powerful ability to create stories. Li Minghui was amazed to find that he was completely captivated by his own fantasies, unable to extricate himself, because the sense of immersion was incredibly strong, making him reluctant to leave.

But just then, Li Minghui felt a pain in his head, and he was pulled out of his fantasy world. He was so angry that he wanted to swear. After finally sinking into a strong imagination, more enjoyable than ever before, it was abruptly interrupted. However, when he 'saw' a line of text appear in his mind, his expression kept changing.

Anger, disbelief, doubt, curiosity, and then it turned into a wild joy. Intense happiness instantly overwhelmed his entire mind, making him almost ecstatic.

"Really, it's actually real! The creation software is real, and everything just now wasn't an illusion, but I actually have the super genius talent for writing novels!"

Recalling the scenes he had imagined, Li Minghui felt it was a masterpiece with a strong sense of immersion.

As a seasoned bookworm, Li Minghui had read countless excellent web novels during his four years of college in his previous life. However, he found that the story he had imagined was on par with the works of some minor deities.

"It must be a coincidence, if I can improve the plot a bit, then maybe..."

Li Minghui immediately became a bit excited, silently thinking about the next developments. The more he thought about it, the more his life after a stroke of luck slowly became more exciting.

Li Minghui gradually immersed himself in the world of his imagination, where he was the clear protagonist with a strong sense of immersion. Through his extraordinary talent, he slowly began to stand out, and his life changed. The small but not unpleasant struggle process, as well as the various real news he had heard from the internet or borrowed from other novels, were seamlessly integrated, without any jarring transitions, as if it were a natural progression.

This thought slowly brought a vivid urban novel world to life.

Li Minghui's eyes sparkled with excitement. He didn't have a heart attack or faint from the intense joy, thanks to his years of reading web novels, which had given him a strong ability to accept extraordinary events.

"The creation software is real, and now my mental level can only use the novel creation function, and it can only last for a mere two hours. However, I have indeed obtained something from that ultra-tech world, and with this mental creation software, I am a super-talented novelist!"

Although Li Minghui was somewhat tired from the mental exertion, the intense excitement still made him feel energetic.

"Moreover, the reason I can only activate the 'novel' creation option is that my knowledge and information are too limited, so I cannot meet the requirements for other functions!"

"The novel option is the most basic, and as long as one is not illiterate or can imagine, it can be activated. If I really want to make full use of this creation software, I need to start learning and accumulating knowledge from now on!"

"Furthermore, because my vocabulary and life experience are too limited, the urban world I imagined seems perfect to me, but anyone with a bit of experience would realize it's nonsense!"

"Although writing novels is easy to start, even the simplest web novels have a very low entry barrier, to become a successful writer or online author, one must accumulate a lot of knowledge, especially a large amount of literary knowledge, to create a perfect novel!"

Li Minghui gradually calmed down and realized that he lacked a lot, even in the easiest-to-enter web novels.

"But I am different. In my previous life, I read a lot of novels, and the main plots of the three major classics are all familiar to me. I used to feel very regretful because I knew the plots but couldn't write them. But now it's different!"

Li Minghui suddenly said excitedly, "Now with this mental creation software, I can convert all my mental abilities into novel-writing talent, and I can recreate those classic web novels from my previous life, even better!"

Think about it, every classic from his previous life had a captivating plot. Although Li Minghui couldn't claim to remember every detail, he knew the general outlines, which was enough. With the mental creation software, Li Minghui was a genius novelist, and creating a novel based on the plot was extremely simple, even to the point of surpassing it!

Think about why "Jade Dynasty" is a classic: it's because of its captivating story. If Li Minghui could write these stories with a more engaging rhythm and even complete the unfinished ending of "Jade Dynasty," what would happen?

Thinking about this, Li Minghui became even more excited. He had been deeply captivated by "Jade Dynasty" in his previous life, and its unfinished ending had once made him very sad. Moreover, because of its slightly classical writing style, many people had given up on it. Otherwise, "Jade Dynasty" would have been even more classic.

"In my previous life, the writing style and unfinished ending of 'Jade Dynasty' drove away many readers. If I can use a more straightforward and engaging writing style like 'Stellar Transformations' to give it a more perfect ending in this world, what would happen?"

Li Minghui's excitement slowly subsided. He knew it wasn't time to celebrate yet. With this creation software, his future was undoubtedly bright, but he first needed to face the reality of his reborn life.

In this world, Li Minghui had been in the capital for over a year and couldn't find a good job. The capital was full of various elites, and the competition was fierce.

As a third-rate undergraduate with a science degree, finding a job was extremely difficult. Li Minghui had to pay off his university loan every month, so he had only saved about 5,000 yuan. To write web novels, he needed to be prepared to fight for at least two months without income, as he would have to quit his current job, which required a lot of time.

This was the most critical moment. He had to pay off his loan, monthly rent, and utilities. With only 5,000 yuan, it would be hard to last two months.

Even if Li Minghui had full confidence in himself, success in web novels required not only talent but also a bit of luck, which was a very important factor. "Jade Dynasty" was a classic, and with the mental creation software, Li Minghui believed he could make it even more classic, but it would still take time.

Having been immersed in web novels for years, Li Minghui was also a reader himself. He knew very well how web novels made money. Although many things were different in these two worlds, the basic principles were the same.

First, as a newcomer, he had to pass the signing stage. Li Minghui was confident that his story would definitely fit the commercial web novel path and provide a strong sense of immersion.

After signing, even with the website's cooperation, getting the first recommendation was a matter of luck. Without a recommendation, standing out was also a matter of luck!

In the vast sea of books, countless new works were added every day, so when he would get his first recommendation was very important, as it related to the period before he could start earning money.

Generally, a newcomer would need at least two months to meet the requirements for going online, during which there would be no income. After going online, he would need another month to receive his first payment, so Li Minghui estimated he would need to persist for at least two months without income.

"What to do? Things are more difficult than I imagined. Even as a genius, writing a classic like 'Jade Dynasty,' the first step is still the hardest!"

Although Li Minghui was not particularly talented in literature or martial arts, he still had a basic sense of rationality. After some thought, he decided to continue his current job, slowly perfecting the outline and stockpiling chapters. When he had enough chapters, he could start posting them, writing a little each day. As long as he could free up a month, he could get through this difficult period!

"Then I'll have a good night's sleep and start slowly from tomorrow!"

At this moment, Li Minghui finally felt tired. He shut down his computer, unable to resist the strong urge to sleep, and fell asleep immediately.
