Feel-good wish fulfillment + witty comedy (the kind that makes you squeal like a pig laughing in the middle of the night) + play the pig to eat the tiger + scheming + powerhouse + invincible
Zhang Mingsheng was peerless at gambling and was hailed as the Saint of the Gambling World. But his beloved, his family, and his friends all died because of him (see Saint of the Gambling World for details). So he spent his days drinking himself into a stupor and living a life of debauchery.
He wanted nothing more than to die and free himself, so he ended up in Quanhai Bay. But little by little, he unexpectedly began a new life.
Nine out of ten gambling games are rigged. Stay away from gambling and cherish the good life.
It was so well written that I couldn't stop reading.
