   This is the only new book. The protagonist (a transmigrator) is a weapon refiner who was a general in a small country in the mortal realm (more on that later). Through some trades, he managed to become an ordinary disciple in his sect. Then, while doing a mission, he unwittingly became a nominal disciple of an elder. Later, due to a deal with a senior uncle (who promised to help him become a direct disciple after he leveled up), he went to a secret realm to find the material. He unexpectedly leveled up, became a direct disciple, returned home, and discovered traces of a demonic sect while visiting old friends. He reported this to his sect, and the sect leader, upon learning of this, sent several capable individuals (including the protagonist) to deal with it. He succeeded and became famous. The rest is left to the reader to discover. In short, it's worth reading a few chapters in your spare time. (All of the above are subjective feelings.) This book's performance was rather poor, but I'll still give it a thumbs up. (Again, all of the above are subjective feelings.)

    New book! No system, no romance, but only a dozen chapters so far, so you can build up your reading. The prologue is an introduction and action scenes (honestly, it was really enjoyable; the female lead's fight scenes were all very well-paced). However, the first 1-5 chapters felt a bit immature to me, probably because I was practicing my writing style. The character design is great; the female lead is the strongest in the entire state, and she becomes cold and aloof after becoming stronger (I actually feel like she's been given a path of ruthlessness?). She was betrayed and sacrificed herself to protect the state, reincarnated as a commoner. Throughout the story, she fights monsters and only suffers minor injuries, all thanks to experience and skill—a genius is a genius! The author also mentioned that once the team is complete (a sweet girl, a boyish charm, and a lazy cool guy; I heard there's also a beautiful, gloomy-faced Guanyin statue later on), they'll go to the Cloud Realm to write stories about the various geniuses of different sects, including group portraits and sect competitions (which sounds quite interesting).
