I just seriously do not understand what is up with Chinese stories, and forcing status and hierarchy snobbery when it is not needed.
The MC's an idiot who cannot figure his way into a cereal box. It'd have been enough if the MC was uncaring for conventional science, but was enthusiastic about magical theories. Instead, he somehow turned into a Wuxia hero the moment he crossed over, barking crap like: "Hmpth! I will show the world! They will ALL see!"
...See what? It's just middle-school, calm down.
