Reading web novels is what matters most! The Classics? Crushed!
What the hell! The way the literary world's shared pool is allocated is absurd!
The Classics crowd wave Dream of the Red Chamber and Hamlet around like holy writ, calling web-novel reading "fast-food trash" and saying a minute of reading is worth just one energy point?
Shakespeare waves his quill and calls me shallow, while Cao Xueqin strokes his beard and says I lack depth. And now they want to swallow all the web-novel energy in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons?
Even worse, Ma Tao from the short-video platform is invading with a black mist. His 30-second mini-readings are stealing readers and threatening the very roots of the literary world!
Just as the shared pool cracks and the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons is about to go under, I activate the Reading Power Enhancement System!
Writing satisfying web novels doubles the energy conversion, and adding a chapter makes the shared pool explode!
Readers following updates = invincible buff. Tips = energy nukes. The face-slapping, comeback, and sweet-romance plots in web novels all count toward my combat power!
"Mr. Cao, you say Dream of the Red Chamber has a high energy density? One bonus chapter of my live-in son-in-law novel has three times the reading power!"
"Mr. Shakespeare, you say web novels lack depth? I can use readers' passionate comments to form a shield against the black mist!"
