There is no "System" menu per se. There is the system include, as you
can see by the word "Include" to the left in the menu editor.

The System include automagically generates a list of menus based on
.desktop files installed by applications. The reason that your apps
are organized in this way (Xfce menu, Apps menu) has to do with the
.desktop files provided by your distro.

You can manually edit the .desktop files, which can be laborious.
Consider asking about this on a distro specific lists.
