   [Top Post][Attention][Laughing][Kiss] These three books are amazing! The first one is the pinnacle of the series; the protagonist pretends to be a prodigy from infancy, constantly showing off his abilities and gaining immense prestige—it's incredibly satisfying! The second new book, though only a few hundred thousand words, has smooth writing, a plot without any plot holes, and also starts from infancy, with the prodigy persona remaining rock solid. The protagonist in the third book is decisive and ruthless, never a saint, gaining prestige through showing off his abilities, and his strength skyrockets! All three books follow the classic formula of "showing off one's abilities in public + increasing prestige," a must-read for those who stay up all night!

    These are all stories where the protagonist is actually just an ordinary person, but pretends to be incredibly powerful. The first two are books I've been following recently. In the first one, the protagonist can see the comments on the screen and uses this to pretend he has superpowers—his "God's Eye"—it's a bit awkward, but very satisfying, so feel free to read it. It's also an ensemble piece. The second one is truly amazing; the author knows exactly what we like to read. The protagonist has a system, pretending to have a very powerful person inside him, plus multiple identities, and even a forum with comments—it's incredibly satisfying. I remember the third one is similar, but I don't remember the plot clearly. Check out the synopsis to see if it interests you! [Kissing emojis]
