    Life's too tiring, and you're craving a mindless, super-powerful read? This novel, *The Yin-Yang Master: Steal My Magic Weapon, and a Hundred Ghosts Parade*, has you covered! Just how powerful is the protagonist? When a world-ending crisis erupts, and the strongest official, the Demon Suppression Division Chief, kneels covered in blood, begging for his life, he's calmly debating whether to have instant noodles or a jianbing (Chinese crepe) for dinner. While the enemy is still raging, the protagonist is already calculating how many merit points he'll earn from this operation. It's all about nonchalant calm and collected tactics, killing with a vengeance – that's true class! Highly recommended for readers who enjoy easy crushing victories and the protagonist's slick antics!

    The protagonist is incredibly powerful; he wiped out an entire family at the age of 12, and he saves a ghost every ten chapters. He's not a saint.
