Jianghu Stories with Martial Arts Schools, and Maybe a Little Court Politics
493Books4.1MViews5dUpdated
Looking for High-Quality Wuxia or Invincible Fantasy Novels! Please!
Preferably with one female lead or none. I hope the protagonist uses a sword, loves wine, and roams the martial world.

Ergou, Snow, Sword Comes, Sword Bone, Yet It Seems Ordinary, Changning's Army, Renegade Immortal, The Most Satisfying Thing in Life, That Year, That Cicada. I want a gradual progression, with both brains and brawn, but no power fantasies. I've read all of these, so please recommend something else.

It's still readable. I hope it doesn't end up being a superstitious anti-Tartar story.
This book is full of ups and downs, well-paced, and quite captivating, depending on individual preferences. The only drawback is that it's too short. If it had another 400 or 500 chapters about making money through commerce, steelmaking, cannon and gun manufacturing, inventing the steam engine, dominating the seas, and unifying China and the Asian continent, it would have been even more perfect.
Well written, without that overbearing, arrogant "king" attitude from the start! Every step is taken cautiously, but there's no perfect execution! Pretty good.
It's very well written; the author clearly did their research, and the overall structure is very rigorous. The characters and plot are vivid and well-developed, but unfortunately, it's incomplete.
The subject matter is good, similar to a time-travel novel that also originated in the Yantai area, but the descriptions are quite different.
A very good book, highly recommended.
Looks good, keep it up!
It wasn't finished?! It was well-written! But suddenly it ended.
It feels so good and sophisticated.
A fantastic book, one that I really enjoyed reading.
