   These are all currently unromanced, strong female protagonist novels. The first one is super cute (so adorable!). The second one is still being serialized, but the main story is already finished! (Very powerful and heartwarming, and with no deep ties to the native inhabitants). The last one even has no men around the female lead (she's practically the only human in her living environment, hahaha). They're all so good! Everyone should read them, hehehe.

   I recently read a great infinite flow novel: 1. It's a bit scary, but the protagonist is highly intelligent (though not the kind of "satisfying" novel where you can solve everything at a glance; each instance is very engaging). The instance designs are also ingenious. 2. The first instance is about becoming a god, and even the Cihang Grand Stage is too overpowered for most characters. 3. The protagonist has extremely high intelligence, and so far it's been great. I don't know if it will decline later because I found the latest part a bit boring and I don't know how the author plans to continue writing.

   The first book is a cultivation novel where the female protagonist completes her cultivation journey alone. The world is literally about survival of the fittest, and the plot moves quickly without dragging. I barely had time to feel sad before moving on to the next one. The plot is tight, and I especially love this kind of story! Do any fellow readers have other recommendations? The third book, "Good Life is Bitter," has a slight Cthulhu twist. It was my first time encountering this kind of world, so it felt very novel, and the plot was decent. The fourth book is... Well, let's just say it's sinister. I found it somewhat humorous. I rarely read this kind of genre, so if you have any good recommendations, please let me know.

   No romance + no ambiguity. ①② I don't need to introduce them, they're quite authoritative. ③ Very good, the only tomb raiding fanfic I could actually enjoy. I really liked the friendship between the main characters. I was very excited and tearful as I read on, constantly praying it wouldn't have a bad ending. The math teacher scene at the beginning felt a bit forced, but that's okay. Don't give up when you get there, just keep going into the tomb. ④ The beginning of this book is great, but it feels a bit weak towards the end, especially around the chip part. But you can still give it a try, the beginning is really good. ⑤ This is a crossover wuxia fanfic. There aren't many wuxia fanfics, so not having read the original isn't a problem. This book actually has a little bit of romance (in another world), but I still managed to pull it out, it's a very natural kind of romance. You might want to check it out. It's no romance. ⑥ This one is also very good, a historical fiction I love. It's a female-to-male transmigration story. If you don't usually like or are averse to female-to-male transmigration stories, you can give it a try, because that's what I am. But I still really like this one because you can feel that the core of the main characters remains unchanged. Just between you and me, I like all of this author's books, except for her newest ones on order-taking and the historical fiction ones (especially her disaster stories). It's strange, but I feel like this author's writing is getting worse and worse, uh. ⑦ This one, if you like historical fiction, you can give it a try. I usually don't dare read historical fiction like this; actually, I really want to ask, who gave them the courage to write it, uh (don't scold me, you're right). This one isn't actually very good, but it's okay for historical fiction, and by "okay" I mean for reading without thinking too much. I read historical fiction because I really like the clash between ancient and modern times. ⑧ You can check this one out if you have some free time.

    The last two books received lower ratings, indicating fewer readers. I'm quite picky, so if someone finishes a book and keeps it on their shelf, there must be a reason. Some people felt the female lead in the last one was too weak-willed, but the plot was probably good. It's been too long, and I've forgotten the specific details. The second-to-last book was a bit angsty and not exactly a "feel-good" story, but the female lead didn't just sit and wait to die.

    The first three are Demon Slayer fanfiction, the fourth is Collapse Iron Fanfiction, the fifth is a prehistoric fantasy novel, the sixth is a time-travel novel featuring the adopted sister of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, and the seventh and eighth are Tomb Raider fanfiction. Yes, that's right, they're mostly fanfiction, but they're all quite good. I didn't see any romance in any of them, but be careful with the seventh one—it's a bloodbath from beginning to end. The other books are more lighthearted and humorous, and they're all completed, so you can read them without worry.

    The first book is an infinite flow novel, very good, basically no dull or tiring parts, requires brainpower, and each world has points that really resonated with me, giving me goosebumps. The second book has a female lead with maxed-out intelligence, I really loved reading it in the beginning, but later the female lead seems to have developed feelings for Li Chi, and I completely couldn't stand Li Chi, that idiot... So I quickly moved on from there. If you don't mind that, you can check it out. I remember the initial tag wasn't suspense romance, how come it's suspense romance now... Anyway, the female lead doesn't end up with anyone. The third book is a treat for fans of empresses. Although the synopsis says it's a woman disguised as a man, that's not actually the case, I find the idea of ​​a woman disguised as a man quite cheesy... But this book makes it clear from the beginning that the female lead's disguise as a man has been exposed, and she remains a woman throughout, even ascending the throne as a woman, very exciting.
