    The first book, to be fair, is really interesting. The combat power is high but the plot doesn't falter. 9.1 Rating, I suspect it's heavily promoted (highly recommended). The second book is quite interesting, intellectually stimulating, and humorous. The only downside is the title, which sounds like a mindless wish-fulfillment novel, but don't mind it, it's good. The third book is really good, with tight logic and a very brain-teasing plot. It's a very good suspense novel, and although its popularity is a bit low, it doesn't detract from its appeal (highly recommended). The fourth book is a very relaxing immortality novel, worth checking out. The writing is very delicate, but the pacing is slow, so it might not be suitable for impatient readers.

    This is a rare gem of a book, so I'll share it. The protagonist has a cheat ability, but it only grants him the martial prowess of Dian Wei at the beginning. It's a Hong Kong crosstalk story where he starts from scratch and rises to dominate Southeast Asia, becoming a powerful figure who influences the world order. The protagonist has a great personality, there are multiple female leads, the ensemble cast is well-written, and the protagonist's power structure is clearly defined. I read it from beginning to end without skipping any parts. Overall, it's a great read.
