He spent his entire life trying to save wild animals and stop poaching. After accidentally dying at the hands of poachers, he woke up to find he had transmigrated into the body of a notorious, barely-known celebrity in the entertainment industry, someone so insignificant even a thirty-eighth-tier star could walk all over him.

   It's good. The idea is excellent, and it's not preachy or pretentious, which is rare.

   It's good. To be honest, it has a strong male-oriented feel, about being pushed around by a possible apocalypse that might come tomorrow, with no way to avoid pain and hardship, but it's also genuinely exhilarating, delivering the enjoyment it deserves. But it's still quite bittersweet. Perhaps because of the author's ending and the epilogue, it left the reader feeling very upset. But it's very good. Truly excellent.

   The character design is very innovative, and the reading flow is good, but the level of detail is sometimes a bit odd.

   It was a very difficult read, but it's well-written. The author has a very strong talent for character development, and the story is very clear. There are some inaccuracies regarding the historical period, but they don't affect the reading experience. And the ending is my favorite part—making dumplings!

He hasn't even done anything and already owes the System ten million popularity points.

   This is the best manga I've read so far, featuring a random person saving the world. The character development and story design are excellent. Perhaps because I read it after the main story was finished, the revisions made due to logical issues didn't affect my reading experience at all, and I finished it very smoothly and coherently.

7. 7 星 The Interstellar Universe’s Number One Gossip King! 星际第一种瓜王！ Far Up the Tianshan Mountains远上天山No CP564k WordsCompleted When agriculture student He Le wakes up, he discovers that he has transmigrated to the interstellar era and become the eldest son of the noble He family of the capital, exiled with only one asset: a barren planet. The planet is covered in vast deserts. Its climate is unpredictable, resources are scarce, and conditions are too harsh for humans to live there.

   I feel this type of farming is quite rare! The author, who goes so far as to climb the Tianshan Mountains, is definitely a perfect example. This book is very heartwarming, with a very down-to-earth feel. The words and stories seem to grow from the land, carrying a scent of fresh grass. We often say that a person is most charming when they are focused on something, and the protagonist of this story is most charming when he is in the fields. Whether sowing, cultivating, harvesting, or teaching others, he shines whenever he steps into the countryside.

   It's incredibly good, much more mature than I expected! The setup is very smooth, and the plot is very coherent. It doesn't leave you speechless like many works with no romantic pairings that end up with a disappointing conclusion. It almost brings to life all the obvious guesses. It's so good. A work with very few flaws in its narrative.

   My love for Yuan Shang Tianshan is that I read all of her novels without a romantic pairing. I think this one is slightly weaker than the other two entertainment industry novels, but it's still quite good. Fans of "dog-like" men are in luck! Yuan Shang Tianshan writes about "dog-like" men (but the portrayal of "dog-like" men in the first half is a little subtle, but it gets much better once you get through it).

    It's a very good topic, exploring what it means to "shape oneself" and then "break away from the past." However, it's noticeable that the author's writing style is a bit stiff at times, but overall it's a book worth reading.

    Seven Fruit Tea's novels without a romantic pairing are all very novel. I really like this one. The male lead is handsome and pretentious, the plot is smooth and enjoyable, and I will pick it up again and again when I am looking for something to read.

    This is phenomenal. Truly phenomenal. You could say this book list was created because I couldn't vent my emotions after finishing this one.

    All of Tianshan's novels without a romantic pairing are quite enjoyable, and this was the first one I read. The protagonist's career path is very impressive, and even though you can roughly guess what will happen next, it still makes you want to finish it. However, Tianshan likes to leave the male lead with a narcissistic streak, which is quite obvious in this one.

    This book is so inspiring; it brought tears to my eyes the whole time. I don't read many track and field novels, but very few can make my breath catch and my heart race like this one.

    The subject matter is very novel and interesting. It's a pity that the author's writing skills are a little weak, and there are some riddles in the process. But after reading the ending, I cried all night. It wasn't because I was heartbroken or because it was too cruel, but just because I was unwilling to accept it. I was unwilling to accept that such a good person had to meet his end.
