The Decline of Gaming Web Novels
My top picks are gaming novels I consider outstanding. I really like the strategic battles in works like Juan Tu's The Ultimate Evolution, Reverend Insanity, and The King's Avatar. I also enjoy newer gaming novels like This Game Is Too Real and Nightfall Murder, but there aren't many books like them, and they're rarely written by established authors. The stories often fall apart, damn it... The more I read, the more boring they get. Even the big-name authors' books are just so-so... Is it really

Author, you just paired Lingxi with Wu Hao. Be direct. Holy crap. How disgusting! Damn. And then you pulled this waist-grabbing threat... Another chapter? Sending a girl, is it? If you want to become famous, just arrange for someone to be cuckolded. You're guaranteed to become famous.
Those wonderful poems you might stumble upon!
The author's poetry skills are quite good! Thumbs up!! 🌹
I had to get this off my chest after watching half of it. Honestly, the biggest problem with this novel is its pacing. This pacing issue makes the characters fragmented and unconvincing. Although a lot of text is used to describe the reasons behind the characters' actions and their inner thoughts, it just feels really dry.
This is probably the best martial arts novel I've read recently. It's logically sound, not simplistic, the pacing is just right, and the characters are well-developed and not stereotypical. They all have the necessary intelligence. Unlike some novels that rely on mindless face-slapping tropes and boastful superhuman skills, this one doesn't rely on such clichés.
Actually, wuxia and xuanhuan (fantasy) share a common origin. I came to the wuxia world mainly because I couldn't stand the xuanhuan formula of seemingly endless world-destroying events and constant leveling up, with too little character background and story development. Wuxia, at least, has romance and love.
I hope the author will do more to uphold the true nature of Chinese martial arts in the novel, and not follow Jin Yong's example by writing haphazardly and inserting his own biases. Jin Yong rewrote Taoist martial arts, the Boy's Skill, and the Nine Yang Divine Skill as Buddhist. He even changed the birth of Zhang Sanfeng, the founder of Wudang, to that of a Shaolin monk. Shameless!
Having read the first 40 chapters, I'd like to share my thoughts on this novel. Firstly, its setting, cultivation system, and techniques are all excellent. Secondly, the protagonist's personality suits my taste, and the character development is also quite good. However, there are some shortcomings.
I have a feeling this book is going to be a hit!!!

If possible, the author could start a fan group to interact and discuss expectations for future chapters.
First and foremost, I want to say that I like Li Chengtao! I like Li Chengtao! I like Li Chengtao! The charming "Wind Chaser" hopes that the author will not portray him as a tragic figure. Personally, I think the strongest characters in the first 25 chapters are: Li Chengtong and Li Chengqian (although this older brother seems unreliable, he's incredibly powerful! Unbreakable! A rock!)
I just started reading this book and it seems pretty good. I hope the author won't stop updating again.
