Full marks! The author of "Wan Geng" really deserves credit. With a protagonist of normal intelligence, there are no near-demonic geniuses or easy-going beast girls in other worlds. Everyone's just an ordinary person. Why does changing worlds suddenly make them powerful? Cleverness is still cleverness; as long as there's enough benefit, there's no such thing as being upright and honorable.
It's pretty good. I've always wanted to find a similar isekai (another world) story with a large number of transmigrators. I have two suggestions for improvement (you can read it just for fun): First, if the number of transmigrators is large enough, there's no reason why no one should stay. Despite the threat of dragons, development remains an unavoidable pursuit for most lords.
The initial performance, based on the first 30+ chapters, is quite good. I'd like to offer my personal opinions: the protagonist endures hardships—using intelligent thinking to outwit enemies and overcome adversity—faces temptations and outwits others—gradually discovers truths unknown from a first-person perspective—while the female lead's storyline progresses simultaneously (at least that's how…
Well, it does have its shortcomings. But it's still pretty good for a beginner. Real enough, hypocritical enough
It's really good. It's the best book I've ever read so far. The protagonist's early struggles and the realism are a unique characteristic of this book. Other books in the same genre simply don't have this feeling. I want to keep reading! Keep it up! I hope you write more, otherwise it's really not enough. I wait for the author to update every day. Besides this book, there's nothing else to read. Keep it up! Please keep updating!
I don't want to read anymore. The author is a lolicon, so those who like lolis can go back to school now. Even if you don't like lolis but are just casually interested, you can still check it out. I highly recommend it. Finally, if you don't like lolis, I suggest you don't read it. I personally left feeling miserable.
It's quite interesting to me. The biggest highlight is the contrast between the realistic depiction of human nature and the fictionalized concepts of different races, all presented in an absurd yet humorous way. It's very captivating, especially the relationship between Yan Ye and You An, the dragon and human. I hope the author can add some more twists and unleash their imagination.
I read it from beginning to end, and I have to say the author put a lot of effort into character development. Whether it's the succubus Yuna or the wolf girl, these supporting characters who would probably only last three chapters in other books, both taught the protagonist a profound lesson. The logic is there, but some of the foreshadowing felt a bit off.
It's absolutely perfect, so incredibly realistic with its intrigue and scheming. The author handles the details well, even going so far as to dedicate several chapters to resolving certain plot points, filling in all the loose ends. The protagonist, a transmigrator who initially believes he'll have a typical overpowered protagonist storyline, is defeated by this world and forced to change in…
It felt good, though the beginning with Yuna was really frustrating. While there were definitely traps, it still made me want to quit. And then there were those sudden jumps from the story to reality. If those had been changed, I think it would have been okay. Of course, Yuna's part didn't really need changing. Although it was frustrating, it did teach the protagonist a valuable lesson.
