About twelve years ago, when I was in the second year of junior high school, I bought a book of martial arts novels called "Legend of the Ancient and Modern Times" and came across a novel called "The Legend of the Great Tang Dynasty." I've loved it ever since.
If it weren't for the squid saying so, I wouldn't have known the author was back. Keep it up!
It seems that Jin Yong plans to dedicate a significant portion of his work to depicting the martial arts world abroad, incorporating local characteristics. This appears to be part of a larger series. What countries might be included? There are numerous European nations alone: German greatsword, French flower and sword, the wiki culture of Norway and Iceland, religious apostolic systems, the…
What I love most about this book is the passion for Kendo it conveys; the spontaneous and vibrant spirit bursts forth. As adults, we often endure pressure in life, our edges are smoothed, our ambitions are buried, and we gradually become accustomed to it—this is what Lu Xun described as numbness and apathy.
The world-building is interesting, but the pacing is too fast, making it difficult for readers to immerse themselves. More development of the main and supporting characters in each event could be added to make them more complex and three-dimensional, preventing them from feeling hollow. Keep up the good work, author!
This is a review after reading more than ten chapters; let's see if the author will delete it.
I've read over ten chapters now and it feels really strange. The author's writing style is there, but for some reason, it feels very odd, even though I'm a seasoned reader myself. The fight scenes are well-written, but some of the pre-fight scenes feel unrealistic, lacking in descriptive language, and the logic is odd.
The main character's character design is really frustrating. He doesn't resemble the protagonist of Qidian at all. It's mindless, impulsive, and hot-blooded. He was just a teenager, not someone reborn into the world. To be fair, if the protagonist had been working hard in his previous life but was constantly suppressed, he would at least be able to remain calm and composed, if not cunning.
You can check out the author's masterpiece, "The Great Tang Escort". My personal favorite author is "The Legend of the Tang Dynasty," because that's what got me hooked on the series. 😁 "The Great Tang Escort" is a representative work of Jin Xunzhe, a new generation of martial arts novelist. A masterpiece of the new martial arts genre.
I was looking for something to read, so I came here from Chiji. Is the protagonist really reborn? Was he really a professional in his previous life? Why are there so many psychology-related characters? How come he suddenly thinks he can win a professional competition? The supporting characters are also awkwardly described.
When I first started working, I read "The Great Tang Escort" and it cemented the author's position as the number one online martial arts writer in my mind. To this day, no one has been able to replace him. Only "Fish and Dragon Transformation," which was abandoned, can compare to it.
