Writing Style Is Key
Only recommending promising new fantasy books with good writing and solid logic. Readers who drop by are welcome to recommend books. I'll read every recommendation in the comments. If a book suits me, I'll add it to the list. Please follow and save the list.
My Niche Reading List
History, wuxia, sci-fi, entertainment, reborn stories... A few books I like, though some may be a bit niche. As for reborn business novels, I'm a numbers person, so I mainly recommend books that I feel have few major flaws, detailed data, brisk pacing, a clear central plot and solid logic, without being melodramatic. They should also feel realistic and immersive.

Different Stories, One Shared Interest
Realistic, meticulous, heartfelt, and engaging prose brings a vivid world to life. A steadfast, decisive, clearheaded, practical protagonist hones himself amid the turmoil of the mortal world and rises above it. A great starting point. The protagonist quickly adapts to circumstances, takes control of the situation, and creates a good environment for cultivation. He is resolute in his cultivation, decisive in his actions, and doesn't slack off in daily life, making steady progress.

To be honest, this book is categorized as Xianxia (fantasy/martial arts), but the title and synopsis are Wuxia (martial arts) fan fiction. However, most of the content is about farming and making money. It feels like having a bunch of things labeled "cooking wine" in the liquor section of a supermarket, only to find that they taste like cooking wine jelly inside.
Honestly, abandoning Mount Hua to become emperor was a huge mistake. We readers have been following the story since it was first released, and in our hearts, the protagonist isn't just Yue Buqun, but the entire Mount Hua! And all the countless Mount Hua disciples.
Linghu Chong is the worst protagonist in Jin Yong's novels.
Yue Buqun's talent must have been quite good, right? His entire sect died when he was a teenager, and he had to support the Huashan Sect while studying on his own, even with his textbooks cut in half. Yet, at the beginning of the story, his strength was only slightly inferior to the leaders of Songshan, Shaolin, and Wudang. He was probably the youngest, right?
Having read only a few dozen chapters, I'd like to offer a slightly more nuanced critique. The distinction between first-rate, second-rate, and third-rate martial artists is impossible to discern without direct encounters or sparring; it can only be determined through rumors and hearsay. So, for an ordinary bystander in ancient times, how would one categorize martial artists?
Having studied Marxist philosophy, reading *The Smiling, Proud Wanderer* feels like a monologue filled with the self-righteous superiority of intellectuals. Every single one of the so-called heroes in the book cares nothing for the lives of ordinary people who don't practice martial arts.
Some readers have said that the book is plagiarized. Let me explain: This book was published before, but it was never signed. Later, some parts were censored due to inappropriate wording. Now it has been rewritten and signed, so I can continue writing it. Readers don't need to worry about it being abandoned. Please continue to support me.
Do you have any drafts saved up? I'll give you 50,000 coins as a reward and release a huge update tomorrow!
If Yue Buqun were placed in The Prince of Tennis...
If Yue Buqun's experiences were set in a different context, his popularity would definitely skyrocket. Yue Buqun (Tezuka Kunimitsu) was originally a first-year student at Seigaku, possessing exceptional intelligence but a humble and unassuming nature. However, during his first year, a chaotic incident that swept through Seigaku changed his fate.
Zuo Lengchan: Senior Brother Yue has been in the martial world for a long time and is renowned throughout the martial arts community. He must know the heroes of this era. Please point them out. Yue Buqun: How can I, with my naked eyes, recognize a hero? Zuo Lengchan: Don't be too humble. Yue Buqun: I am deeply grateful to my master for granting me the authority to lead Mount Hua.
