Alright, according to your needs, I have a cultivation novel without a female protagonist here to recommend to you. That's the Nine Grades Immortal Road! This book was about the growth of a Humble Class cultivator. There was no plot for the female protagonist. The background of the story was in a Great Jin Dynasty dominated by the Nine-rank system. The protagonist gradually rose from a poor student to explore the path of cultivation. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
