   On August 8, 2025, I had a dream. Here is the whole story: I dreamt that I was in a high school around the 2000s (based on my own high school). I was about 17 years old, wearing a purple and white school uniform, and participating in a ten-day death game in the dream. In this game, our names were all distorted into nicknames. I remember the "GM" saying that only four people could survive in the end, and the game would be very unconventional each day. Then, the first day's game was a real-life version of Werewolf, with the characters' skills all modified. At night, it was a real murder mystery game, and a huge black creature appeared. I survived, and then it jumped directly to the ninth day. A boy named Xiaoyu and I decided not to participate in the ninth day's "basketball game" because neither of us knew how to play basketball. We somehow survived, and then it jumped directly to the tenth day. The entire school, or rather the entire world, began to collapse. I vaguely remember that the four people who survived were me, Xiaoyu, and two girls, Meimei and Huahua. We could all fly freely in this world. In my dream, I felt light and airy. We flew for a long time until we found the exit. Before the exit, we promised each other never to forget one another. Then, I woke up. After waking up, inspiration struck, and I quickly wrote down the dream. About a month later, based on the prototype of this dream, I wrote a novel called "Ten Days of Dreams." The original manuscript is complete, about 500,000 words, and it's currently being serialized on Tomato Novels. Here's a brief introduction to the novel: [A ten-day survival game, progressing layer by layer! There's no harem, no elite soldiers, no overpowered protagonists, no domineering CEOs. The protagonist's ability is simply his 40 years of life experience and wisdom. This novel is based on a dream I had, and the world-building is based on that dream! I'm not a professional writer, and I've never even read web novels. This is my debut work, and I hope you readers will be understanding and supportive!] When Tian Chen, a 40-year-old preschool English teacher, wakes up at a desk meant for a 17-year-old, he finds himself trapped in a bizarre school called "The Gap Between Dreams and Reality." Here, a maliciously twisted, unconventional death game unfolds daily, where losers are completely erased from memory and existence. Rule One: Here, you are not yourself; your name is forcibly twisted into a nickname. Rule Two: Classic games are completely modified; healers lose health while healing, and warriors support enemies! Rule Three: The final reward is returning to reality, but only four can survive! To protect his kind companions, Tian Chen must use his wisdom beyond his years and the deep-seated experience of a seasoned gamer to see through the lies of the rules time and time again. Moreover, besides the game, there's a second main storyline: exploring the truth of this world within the school. This is a prison manipulated by a usurped "god," a feast feeding on "unwilling" souls. When the final truth is revealed, can he lead his companions to defeat that god and return home? Based on the world I dreamt of, I refined the worldview and expanded the four-person team to a six-person team. We'll go home together on the last day, and the ending is a heartwarming happy ending. I used all my inspiration to design the ten-day game with progressive layers and unconventional plot twists. The six core characters are very well-developed and vivid, making it an ensemble novel. The novel's theme is humanity, and its values ​​are absolutely correct. The reading experience is excellent, with an AI rating of 9.5. However, as a newbie submitting to Tomato for the first time, I didn't get much traffic. I've uploaded over 200,000 words so far, and the game is only on its fifth day. Below are some character illustrations from the novel generated by AI: Besides the ten-day game, there's another important main storyline. That's the "escape room" in the school campus, the "main city," where we use the breathing time after the game ends to find clues about the world and the truth behind the GM! The dual narratives run simultaneously, emphasizing narrative pacing, with a relaxing "gap" after the tense survival game. The formation of the bond between the six characters, and the foreshadowing planted from day one to the end, will surely leave you wanting more. It features tests of humanity, battles of wits and strength, genuine emotions, and a heartwarming promise at the end. If you enjoy works like *Alice in the Land of the Dying*, *Future Diary*, and *Danganronpa*, then you'll definitely love this infinite flow, suspense, survival game novel imbued with human warmth. I hope everyone will support me, comment, and urge me to update! Thank you in advance!

    Amidst the chaos and turmoil of war sweeping across the three realms, the order of cultivation has crumbled. "The Immortal Dynasty of Creation," a fantasy masterpiece that breaks free from the shackles of traditional cultivation, takes you into a magnificent and turbulent era of immortal dynasty power struggles! The Minghan Immortal Dynasty has risen and fallen, the privilege of immortality has crumbled, the source of cultivation has dried up, uprisings are erupting in the Void Realm, and the Wei Nu Clan in the Wuyou Realm has rebelled. Both realms are beset by internal and external troubles, and the world is undergoing a brutal reshuffling. This work abandons the rigid formula of leveling up by defeating monsters, integrating the struggle for power, racial rivalry, and the management of immortal dynasties into a unified whole, sketching a grand and brutal panorama of immortal creation. The core setting is brimming with tension: the depletion of the source of cultivation breaks the balance of cultivation, immortality is no longer exclusive to immortal sects, the old order has been completely destroyed, and only the instinct for survival and expansion remains. The clash of forces and the entanglement of destinies keep the tension high throughout, showcasing the intrigue and power struggles of a chaotic world. The protagonist, Song Bao, has no invincible cheat codes, yet he rises from the ashes of a chaotic world through extraordinary courage and unparalleled strategy. Facing oppression from the remnants of the old dynasty and invasions by foreign cavalry, he gathers refugees, accumulates power, and vies for destiny amidst the fragmentation and warfare. Decisive yet compassionate, he single-handedly creates a new, powerful immortal dynasty. From pacifying the people and restoring water resources, to subjugating tribes and establishing laws, to conquering all directions and reshaping the order of the three realms, his rise is solid and gradual, interwoven with brutal conquest and moral dilemmas, resulting in vivid and multifaceted characters. The book boasts a grand scope, richly portrayed ethnic groups, and meticulously depicted conflicts of interest and power struggles. The logic of managing the immortal dynasty is meticulously crafted, and the plot is intricately woven together. Fans of Xianxia (fantasy/martial arts) novels who enjoy political intrigue and grand worldviews can experience the exhilarating feeling of creating an immortal dynasty and wielding the power of destiny.
