Its kinda vague, almost all mc in a action novel fits your description The Mc of novel genre: otome games, time travel, prophecy and the chosen one
Legend of Ling Tian. I forgot the name of the 2nd novel, but it is about this guy who needs to upgrade the rank of his world by making the people in it stronger. So while he needs to have some power and status himself, he also needs to give them opportunities to become stronger. I think it became from a martial world to a cultivation world.
