Any Stories with a Protagonist Who’s Calm and Clear-Headed, Without a Violent Temper?
I'm looking for books similar to Cultivators Versus Superpowers. After reading novels, anime, and movies for so long, I've noticed that protagonists usually go from good to evil, yet their high abilities aren't matched by an equally developed state of mind. Are there any protagonists who go from evil to good and have a highly cultivated state of mind?

It's good but not too popular, highly recommended 👍👍👍 "A Hero from a Poor Family: From a Boy in Distress to a Powerful Man" is an imaginary historical novel written by the author Da Jinlong. It stands out for its realistic and hard-core power struggle style and profound social insights. This book vividly depicts the process of people being institutionalized by rules, as well as the struggle and growth of individuals in the power game, through the ups and downs of the protagonist Li Modong - from being threatened as a child to being confused as an adult. The background of the novel is similar to the real Ming Dynasty system, the world is created with solid realism, and the characters have online IQs and clear stances, avoiding the routine of mindless and cool writing. Taking "the law as the sword, public opinion as the momentum, people's support as the shield, and sacrifice as the norm" as the core, the author shows the cruel and realistic power game, and at the same time deeply reflects on human nature and social rules. This work not only has a compact plot and exciting plot, but is also a masterpiece that triggers deep thinking. It is highly recommended to readers who love historical power struggles and pursue literary depth.
