   This book is very good, but it has extremely low traffic. The female lead always pretends to be a powerful figure when she's actually a complete novice; she rises through the ranks by feigning strength. The female lead has a powerful background, which barely fits the theme. She is indeed very strong, though she rarely takes action, creating a sense that everyone is no match for her. The game is a cultivation simulator where you cultivate with others to earn system points to exchange for simulators and even draw cards—it's super fun. However, there might be times when the female lead is weak in this simulator.

    These three books definitely fit the bill: no romance, growth-oriented, strongest among their peers, the first two are similar in genre, the protagonist single-handedly leads five sect disciples astray, humorous, and with a tight plot logic. The third is an ensemble piece, where the protagonist crushes a group of geniuses, there are competitions, and it will later expand to interstellar space, with a vast and humorous world-building. I won't spoil it here. You can read five chapters of each book to test the waters.
