Right and wrong are for oneself to judge; let others decide one’s reputation, and don’t dwell on gains or losses. Don’t judge without knowing the whole story. If you’re not involved, don’t take sides. Nothing in this world is inherently unacceptable to heaven and earth, whether a species or a person. We know what happens in the book, but we’re only people outside it, you and I.

The writing is excellent, the main character's personality is vividly portrayed, and the supporting characters don't feel forced or artificial. The main character is seemingly brainless but has a real soul.
Well written. Although it's a light novel, it feels very grounded. The portrayal of everyday life is surprisingly engaging, making it more enjoyable to read than many cultivation-themed light novels. The plot design demonstrates skill. I haven't read the author's other works, but I suspect they've written many things without success, forcing them to resort to the light novel formula. Keep it up, author!
The protagonist is a chivalrous hero, unlike those in the underworld. He fights evil and upholds justice, and his actions are much faster than the law. After he gets a power-up, he becomes a high-level martial artist with low-level mysticism, and his personal combat power is off the charts, which fits everyone's imagination of killing one person in ten steps and leaving no trace for a thousand miles.
The protagonist is clear-headed, understands human relationships, and knows how to eliminate threats before they escalate, unlike some characters who blindly charge ahead. It's quite enjoyable to watch.
This is a very good book. I don't usually like to rate books, since they're mostly just light reading for fun. But this book is very interesting. The author's writing style is excellent, and they make common plots and tropes interesting. It's a very good novel.
The novel is good, but personally, I felt the only downside was that the protagonist's fighting power was ridiculously high, though that's a minor issue that can be overlooked. 🤔
He fits my image of a gangster novel protagonist: free-spirited yet not overstepping the bounds, decisive in killing, and courageous in his actions.
I initially thought it would be a rambling piece, but it turned out to be surprisingly well-written. The characters are vividly portrayed, their actions decisive and efficient, displaying a magnanimous spirit. Whether it's society, officialdom, or everyday life, it's thought-provoking, offering both satire and poignant moments. A true depiction of the myriad aspects of life—it's really well-written!
A pure, unadulterated, and satisfying read! While the overpowered abilities are a bit unbelievable, it's understandable for a small-time hoodlum with no education, background, or connections to have such a massive cheat code. The author's writing is also quite good; it's not the kind of simplistic, wordy story, and there are no unresolved plot holes. It's pretty good. It ended so abruptly... ε=(´ο`*))) Sigh
This is a rare novel I finished reading; it's a well-written and enjoyable read. Don't read it with an omniscient perspective—it's incredibly comfortable to read. Each event has its own rhythm, rather than being just a repetitive series of boasting and face-slapping. Almost every character has their own distinct personality; at least, I didn't forget who any of the characters mentioned in the book were. It's just a shame that the ending was so abrupt. 🤦
