In a Terrible Reading Slump: I Drop 9.8-Rated Books After Ten Chapters and 9.7-Rated Ones After Five
I'm so out of books to read, but I'm incredibly picky. For "Ten Thousand People Are Browsing", I made it only thirty chapters before dropping it. I used to read "Dragon King" past chapter 400, but now I dropped "Slay the Gods" after just twenty chapters.

Mysterious Revival Meets Multiverse Anime Crossover
It seems Tomato Novel doesn't have any stories where the protagonist controls evil spirits and shows off across anime worlds. There was one about "Chainsaw Man" that started with the protagonist controlling a ghost eye, but it got dropped after only a few dozen chapters. I really want to read something like that.
No Suppressing the Protagonist’s Cheat Ability
I want the protagonist to get a concept-level cheat, like Gangplank’s Q, Veigar’s passive, or the effect of Grasp of the Undying. There’s no need to deliberately hold back the protagonist’s powers.

Proper Rule-Based Horror Stories, No Bait-and-Switch
I'm looking for rule-based horror stories like The Zoo Mystery. At least most of the rules should be correct, and violating them should result in contamination rather than instantly kicking the bucket. An ordinary person who stays alert should have a chance of making it through, instead of it being completely dependent on an overpowered cheat that nobody can survive without.

The author can update 100 chapters tomorrow. Firstly, the Guinness World Record is 807 letters per minute. Assuming each Chinese character requires six letters, that's approximately 134 characters per minute. Since I'm not a Guinness World Record holder, I'll use 100 characters per minute as a rough estimate. According to the World Health Organization, a healthy person needs eight hours of sleep.
Excellent, with meticulous logic. Careful thought will send chills down your spine; it truly achieves the effect of "the more you think, the more terrifying it becomes." It's the best bizarre novel I've ever read. Of course, it has its flaws: the chapters are too long and some characters are poorly developed. However, these can still be improved upon. Keep it up!
It's alright. I've seen the rib section. That's the teacher, Ms. Hu Tao, outside. Why is she behaving so strangely? I hope there won't be anything like an Oedipus complex later (teacher-student romance is really unlikely). Just speculating. I wonder how the author will write it. I hope there's no female lead. Forget it, the teacher is too harsh, I'm giving up.
I've finished watching all the updates so far, and here are my personal thoughts. Advantages: The plot is smooth and not awkward, the transitions are not abrupt, the plot twists were unexpected, especially the part where the substitute steals the gold coins, and the puzzle-solving plot does not feel simplistic. The writing is also very good, with well-description of small details.
This book is generally fine, except it's a bit overly sentimental and overly virtuous. The protagonist starts off with an overpowered ability, protecting everyone and ensuring no one dies. Even afterward, no one dies under his protection. The protagonist is always very forgiving of those who attack him, and he even gives away the rewards he receives to others.
It's quite good. Now I finally understand why this book has such a low rating. I wrote over 100 chapters and only passed two levels. I haven't even finished the second level yet. The problem is that there's a character in both levels who is very problematic. The author portrays Zhou Shuang and that Zhang Xiaoshuang as so annoying that it's painful to read.
It requires a slow and careful reading. While there are some flaws, they don't detract from its overall excellence. Perhaps because there are so many fast-paced, action-packed novels these days, people don't enjoy slower-paced stories anymore. They prefer stories with overpowered protagonists who crush their opponents, even when they're evenly matched. This type of story, relying on plot twists, wits, and brute force, might not be as widely accepted.
I absolutely love the main character's personality! Five stars! Highly recommended!
Wow, that's impressive! You wrote over seventy pages for a newbie dungeon. Can you make it to 100 to round it up?
The plot is alright, but some of the female characters are just too annoying (like: Kurumi).
