This is the first time I've seen a novel of this type. This book is truly professional, following the protagonist's journey from the lowest level of referee to their rise through the ranks. So far, the emotions feel natural, and the descriptions of the matches and rulings are flawless. I highly recommend this novel and support the author! ヾ(^▽^*)))
It's really good, as expected of a coming-of-age story combined with realism. The events on the football field and the experiences in real life go hand in hand, and the atmosphere in which the protagonist interacts with those around him feels very natural. It's well-written, without any contradictions, making it a very comfortable read.
So far, it's very well written. I love reading this kind of upgrade story that shows skill and detail, not the kind where you can achieve everything at once. Although there's a system, it's just a simple assistant, not a cheat. If this were on QD, I would pay to read it. Keep updating and don't let it become a flop.
So far, the book seems quite well-written. It's rare to see a legal drama like this on Tomato (a Chinese online literature platform). The relationship between the protagonist and his parents is also well-developed. The system is basically unimportant in this story. I hope there won't be any romantic pairings later on.
It's a bit short of a perfect score, but it's quite good for its size. To be honest, I read about 50 chapters, skipping around. One issue was that the character's speech, even with his name covered, had the same tone and style, which gave me a bit of an uncanny valley effect. Another issue was the portrayal of the protagonist's growth.
As a football player, I'm quite surprised that Tomato (a Chinese football commentator) has such professional refereeing skills. Does the author of this article hold a refereeing certificate? The author possesses exceptional professional knowledge, writes with remarkable skill, and maintains a good balance between pacing and rhythm.
This is an exceptionally excellent novel. It introduced me to the world of football referees. For someone who has never paid much attention to football rules or watched a match, this book takes you from the very basics to understand the world of football and the challenges referees face.
I've been reading this all night, originally planning to only watch for half an hour before bed. But with half an hour of ads added, it's almost midnight. It's great, I especially enjoy reading books in "unknown" fields because they're new and interesting. That's why I can keep reading. I think I've just reached level 9. But I've already read almost halfway through, haha.
A rare novel focusing on referees. The system exists only as an aid (more like an objective external brain and data processing tool, which is very comfortable to read). Detailed psychological descriptions, growth events, and subsequent reflections and improvements are presented.
This is my first time reading this kind of book, and it feels quite magical. For someone like me who's not in the know, it's very easy to understand. Although I don't fully grasp the rules, the author seems incredibly professional. Awesome! ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧
