Catalog only. The chapter bodies were not read. No quoted lines, no free-preview paste, no claim that a welcome row, a restarted section 1, or the newest button is the first door.
Search Legend of the Master or 师士传说. The Qidian page does not print an English title. The mobile book page is book 54111, author 方想.
作品相关 holds twenty-five rows and opens on 关于今天停更！！！. The last related row is 新书《龙城》发布. The story volume is 正文 and opens on 第一节. The next row is 第二节. The catalog counts 节, not 章. 外篇 opens on 台湾地区购书指南. VIP卷 continues at 第七十三节 得手. The newest slot is 第六百零六节 定局（大结局）. 634 rows. 216.37万 characters is the shelf label. The mobile page said 完本, updated 2008-06-29, category 科幻·古武机甲. A Taiwan bookstore note is an extra. The first story is just 第一节, and it does not bother to say 章.
Start at 第一节
Open 第一节 on Qidian and follow that catalog from the first story row, not from the newest button. The Chinese original, 师士传说, is the book page. On 16 October 2026 the mobile page called it 完本, author 方想, category 科幻·古武机甲, updated 2008-06-29, with 216.37万 characters. The catalog listed 634 rows. The public pitch was not copied here.
The newest button is not the door
The newest timestamp points at 第六百零六节 定局（大结局）. 216.37万 characters is a shelf label, not a dare. You are deciding whether 第一节, filed under 科幻, is your door. 完本 is a status.
Who should start here
Try it if a search for Legend of the Master or 师士传说 sent you and you want this Chinese original by 方想, on book 54111. Nearby door: The Legendary Mechanic.
Leave it if you want a newcomer’s first chance at training, checked scene by scene. That door is the RMJI opening guide. The shelf is the Legend of the Master reading series. The index is where to start.
