   Both of these novels are incredibly enjoyable and satisfying reads. I highly recommend the first one, as I'm currently reading it and have already caught up with the rest [drooling]. It's captivating from beginning to end, featuring a genius among geniuses with insane combat power. The world-building is quite extensive, and there's no sign of it ending. Those who enjoy following novels are in for a treat. Those who prefer novels without female leads, romantic subplots, or harems are also in for a treat, as the protagonist is a battle maniac. Those who dislike boring slice-of-life stories are also in for a treat, as the protagonist is constantly leveling up, at an incredible speed. In short, the protagonist has encountered many geniuses, but they all deserve to be called geniuses themselves. So satisfying! What's the most satisfying thing about reading satisfying novels? The most satisfying thing is when the characters in the book are astonished by the protagonist's power.

This will definitely be the next god-tier novel with a strong female lead and no romantic pairing. The female lead is exceptionally talented, calm, strong, hardworking, and respectful of others. She wins over a group of equally talented friends and teammates during her student years through her personal charm. Furthermore, the female content is 99%, making it essentially an all-female story. Most importantly, it's not frustrating. The female lead doesn't have a cynical or melodramatic romantic backstory; she only has a determined spirit and faces the inevitable setbacks of climbing the ladder. The author's portrayal is incredibly rich, depicting Zhao Zhao's journey of overcoming difficulties in great detail. You'll unconsciously imagine yourself emulating the female lead, learning from her, and taking Zhao Zhao as a role model.

    This is a female-centric novel where all the geniuses pale in comparison to the female lead. The world revolves around her, and she is the absolute protagonist. There's no romantic pairing and it's a one-sided love story. If you like female-centric stories, this is worth reading. The low rating indicates it's a newly released book.
