Synopsis

Su Yu grew up in a single-parent family with his father. He lived a relatively simple life and was not someone with grand ambitions. He only aspired to join a research academy and get a job as a researcher, staying far away from the dangerous battlefield. His peaceful life was shattered one day when his father, a retired veteran, decided to return to the battlefield.

Worried about his father, Su Yu embarked on a journey to gain enough strength to join his father on the battlefield. What was the fastest way to gain strength?

Joining a war academy. Or was that really the case? Su Yu soon learned that the path of a researcher was not as it seemed. Unlike the war academies that focused on physical cultivation, the research academies walked a different path: mental cultivation. Which path would Su Yu choose?

Join Su Yu in his adventures as he walks a unique path of cultivation and rises to the apex of cultivation.

📂 System Interface: The Researcher’s Ledger

Su Yu doesn’t just cultivate—illegally or otherwise—he decodes the very essence of the “Myriad Races” using a mysterious golden handbook that allows him to absorb and manifest the racial skills of his enemies.

Component	Classification	Tactical Implication
The Golden Manual	Core Cheat	Allows Su Yu to “record” and “open” the racial essence of killed enemies, gaining their unique abilities.
Character Manifestation	Power System	Focuses on mental cultivation and “Willpower” over pure physical strength, using linguistic characters to fight.
The Allheaven Battlefield	World Setting	A brutal inter-dimensional meat grinder where the human race is just one of thousands fighting for survival.
Information Warfare	Strategy	Su Yu relies on “Research” and “Deception” to fight opponents several tiers above his actual cultivation level.

📂 System Interface: The Status Window (Su Yu)

Attribute	Classification	Description
Personality	Petty & Crafty	Known for being extremely vengeful, “shameless,” and willing to scheme for months to get back at a single enemy.
Growth Path	Researcher / Warrior	Starts as a “weak” scholar but transitions into a terrifying powerhouse through “Scientific” cultivation.
Nationalism	Pro-Human	Deeply rooted in the survival of the “Human Realm” against the predatory Divines and Devils.
Social Standing	Academy Student	Much of the early-to-mid story revolves around internal politics and academic competition within the Great Xia Cultural Research Academy.

Editor's Note

💡 The "Smart" Power Fantasy. Unlike many novels where the MC gets an OP sword and starts swinging, Tribulation of Myriad Races treats cultivation like a laboratory experiment. Su Yu is a "Scholar-Warrior"—he spends as much time looking for "loopholes" in the rules of the universe as he does actually fighting.

A Slow-Burn Masterpiece. Be warned: this novel takes nearly 100 chapters just to get the MC into the Academy. It is dense with information dumps and dialogue. However, once the gears start turning, the "payoff" is some of the most intricate scheming in the genre.

No Romance, Just Grudges. Su Yu is explicitly uninterested in women. His "harem" consists of his master, his fellow researchers, and a growing list of enemies he plans to bankrupt or skin alive.

"Why fight with fists when you can rewrite the rules of their own bloodline?"

*3,792+ chapters of scheming, studying, and a protagonist who would rather bankrupt you than kill you. Ongoing — and still the most petty genius in cultivation.*

Experience Curve

Ch. 1–100 (The Long Setup): ⭐⭐⭐ – The Hook. Su Yu’s father leaves for the war, and Su Yu realizes he needs to be more than a civilian. Slow, dialogue-heavy introduction to the world.

Ch. 101–600 (Academy Intrigue): ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – The Foundation. This is widely considered the "Golden Era" of the novel. Su Yu navigates the internal factions of the Academy, faces off against the "Single Character" faction, and starts his legendary streak of "scamming" resources.

Ch. 601–End (The Great War): ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – The Expansion. The scale explodes. The "Human Realm" politics give way to the "Allheaven Battlefield," and Su Yu begins to influence the fate of entire species.

WebNovelDB Review

9 /10

A top-tier Xuanhuan that sacrifices fast pacing for incredible depth, clever dialogue, and a protagonist who actually feels like he’s outworking his peers.

Writing Quality: 9/10. (WuxiaWorld translation is the gold standard). The prose handles the complex "Character" power system with clarity.

Character Design: 9/10. Su Yu is refreshingly flawed—he is petty, bratty, and manipulative, but his loyalty to his father and his master makes him deeply rootable.

Power System: 10/10. One of the most unique systems in modern webnovels. Cultivating "Characters" and "Willpower" adds a tactical layer most "Spirit Root" novels lack.

Pacing: 5/10. This is the novel’s "Achilles' heel." It is very slow. If you want action every three chapters, you will drop this.

The Good: The humor and "face-slapping." Su Yu doesn't just beat his enemies; he humiliates them, steals their money, and makes them question their life choices. The side characters (like his master Bai Feng) feel like real people with their own goals.

The Bad: Information overload. There are chapters where characters just sit and talk about the history of a specific technique for 3,000 words. It can feel like reading a textbook at times.

For Fans Of: World’s Best Martial Artist (same author), Lord of the Mysteries (for the cleverness), I Shall Seal the Heavens (for the shamelessness).

Not For You If: You want a "Battle Junkie" who just jumps from fight to fight without context, or if you find "Chinese Nationalism" themes in literature to be a dealbreaker.

The Archetype: The "Deceptive Scholar." Su Yu is the guy who brings a gun to a knife fight, but only after convincing everyone else that guns haven't been invented yet.

Start Note: Read to Chapter 150. If you aren't invested in the "Cultural Research" versus "War Academy" conflict by then, the rest of the 2,000+ chapters won't be for you.

Verdict: Tribulation of Myriad Races is a "Thinker’s Epic." It requires patience, but it rewards you with one of the most satisfying "zero-to-hero" arcs in the last decade of web fiction.
