Your book is actually quite good, but the initial preparation is too long, and there is too little content related to core characters such as Cao Liusun. It is estimated that many people will be discouraged. Nowadays, life is fast-paced, and many people do not have the patience to read non-explosive growth stories.
I would like to remind all book friends that the system in this book is not the kind of system that rushes troops and materials at all, nor does it improve one's IQ, nor does it go so far as to have gunpowder and firearms. His system is more like a quantitative conversion of your fitness and the size of the territory, that is, the larger the territory, the stronger you are, that's it. Moreover, the plots in it are also interlocking. It is one of the best books I have read in the Three Kingdoms. The plot is also very good and there will be nothing that escapes time. You can join the research party, and you don't need to throw away or store your brain. It is more enjoyable to read it with you. Highly recommended! ! ! ! !
What can I say about this book? You can't read it too much as a cool novel. This book is a daily farming novel. It doesn't say that you will kick Lu Bu and punch Boss Cao in one step. The protagonist will not be domineering and show off the plot of a famous general bowing down before him. If you are tired of AI brainless cool novels, you can give this book a try. Take your time and read it when you get the chance, but if you can't read classical Chinese, I don't recommend wasting your time. The author's full text will have a lot of ancient dialogue plots. I've read Chapter 78 and I think it's okay. It's not worse than a historical text with a score of about 9.3. I don't know what will happen next. I will review it after I finish reading it.
It is of top quality, fine grain, with detailed textual research and outstanding literary talent. It is obvious that great efforts have been made in the layout and foreshadowing. The golden finger is small but does not affect the balance. It does not have the vulgar drama of traditional Three Kingdoms novels where celebrities will bow down and worship. The protagonist is sentimental, passionate, strategic and charming, and is well portrayed. I would like to call it the best I found in Tomato in 2026. There are a lot of typos and the proofreading should be more careful. Write slowly, don't be a mess, don't be a eunuch, I'm optimistic about you.
The writing is very good, well-founded, and the plot is very good, and it is also very exciting. It is among the top Three Kingdoms fanfics I have read. I hope the author will update it more.
The small characters are vividly depicted, the language is humorous and interesting, the scriptures are quoted, and the way to behave in the world is reasonable. It is a rare good article!
Not bad, I like it
Reading is like drinking fine wine
Provincial flow: A good historical work, but it was a bit delayed in the early stage and the pace was too slow, which affected the rating. The real score should be around 8.5
It's a rare time-travel historical drama. The rhythm is very stable. The protagonist's IQ does not fluctuate. The story structure is reasonable, the logic is clear, and the development is progressing steadily. It's very good👍
