See allA God-Tier Reading List for When You're Out of Books!
Genres covered: fantasy, sci-fi, military, and urban fiction, including System novels, post-apocalyptic stories, medicine, card games, farming, soft and hard sci-fi, police and military, war, and more. New and established authors alike are welcome, as long as the book suits my taste. I recently cleared out more than 200 books from my backlog and am slowly rebuilding it. There are only two standards for inclusion: either it's well-written, or it's fairly average but makes for decent light readin

A Private List for Killing Time: If It's Fun, It's Worth It
This list has no theme. It only contains books I personally think are decent, with a preference for stories with big, imaginative concepts. To be clear, there won't be any books where poorly written female characters get way too much screen time. And let me make this clear: pure romance and harem are absolute opposites. I have no idea how anyone dares to put those two words together. It's absurd. Battlefield stories just can't get great again. Dice gacha games, I'm really mad now. P.S. I'll re

Game of Life: Even with the Gods Here, I'll Still Beat Fate at Its Own Game ♟️
No game, no life. It's not the world itself that makes life complicated and hard to understand. It's the boring people who live in it. And you are the one exception I never saw coming, despite all my careful planning. Don't smile at me. No one cares. Don't cry in front of me. No one will be there for you. No one backs down when grudges and grievances come to blows. Fighting with swords and blades isn't cool at all. Some people follow the rules. Some people defy convention. Some turn ba

High-IQ Gems Recommended by a Ten-Year Bookworm
I mainly recommend novels with no female lead or a single female lead, or ones with a cool, dark, and sensible protagonist. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm pretty laid-back, so updates are irregular.

The longer I read, the fewer books I find worth reading. Here are some I've read or am reading that suit my tastes. P.S. I'm out of books to read, so recommendations of all kinds are welcome. Thank you so much!
Only Worth Reading If It Has Something Fresh, No Clichés
I've read so many books that I can usually predict what comes next as soon as I spot the formula. These days it's one overused trope after another. Either it's one fight after another, until reading becomes exhausting. Or the story plunges into one long dungeon arc. It's convenient for the author, but it really insults the reader's intelligence. Or the author thinks they're clever and that their comedy is hilarious, when in reality it's just... painfully bad. Personally, I think a good author s
Ten-Year Web Novel Reader's Picks: Quality Over Quantity
I started reading web novels as a college freshman, and it's been twelve years now. I've read more than I can count, and I'd like to recommend the books that moved me, drew me in, and made me sincerely applaud. This list is updated regularly. I've already removed several books that fell apart later on or were abandoned.

A partial list of psionicists on the Great Source Path (incomplete, please forgive the incompleteness).
[The Great Source Path] ·The Great Source Path: Mastering the 'Original Power' born from the world, whether it's the "elements" of earth, wind, water, and fire, or the electrical and nuclear energy brought about by the progress of civilization.
The mind is superior to things
In an era where consumerism and egoism are rampant, and the labor of the past has been materialized into shackles that in turn bind the living, this book gives me a very strange feeling. It showed me the possibility that the exercise of human will can be unrestricted by physical and social rules.
As many reviews have pointed out, the content in the mid-to-late stages is too homogenous. Those few books about beginners leveling up rely on the repetitive use of tropes like showing off and slapping faces. The author uses a manga-style writing approach, but this method is far less effective in written novels than in comics and anime.
A summary of some of the psionic techniques that have emerged so far.
Six Paths of Psionic Power: Balancing the Great Source, Transcending Revelation, Consensus, Truth Psionic Arts Ignite: One of the three options given to Song Shi upon his rebirth and re-entering the Path of Power. It allows him to summon a flame with his bare hands using psionic power, without needing fuel.
Indeed, people cannot imagine things they have never seen.
Looking at the opening scene, the protagonist goes to get a loan. To highlight the ruthless nature of loan sharks, the author has the gangsters demand interest rates as high as 10% per month... Add a nine-out-thirteen-in Perhaps the author truly felt that this was the ultimate he could imagine. But I was starting to lose control. Brother, this is China in 2025.
Status of major factions and statistics of characters above the fifth ring
The various factions, Singularity Technology, and the different fifth-ring settings in this book are indeed very appealing. With the series nearing its end, I'm sharing the data I compiled earlier. The data was compiled manually, so there may be omissions or errors. Please forgive me. Spoiler alert⚠️ Spoiler alert⚠️ Spoiler alert⚠️
Key Selling Points of This Book
Here's a brief overview of the book's main selling points, which new readers may find helpful. The order of these selling points is based on my personal preference. First, the diversity of post-war orders: The company, a standard example of extreme capitalist self-interest. The Pan-ASEAN member, the Eastern Continent Republic, a psychic nine-rank system disguised as a republic.
Currently, there are two conditions for becoming a giant enterprise: one is Singularity Technology, and the other is Five-Ring Combat Power (combat power, not necessarily Five-Ring. Zenliusha doesn't have Five-Ring). 1. Overturning Valley Expansion: Singularity is spatial teleportation. 2. Southern Region Heavy Industry: Singularity is a universal printer.
A direct and unrestrained expression of feelings! Free and easy, true to its essence!! I've wanted to say this for a long time: this book's charm is absolutely unique among all the books I've read. While other novels of the same genre may present a steady narrative or be witty and humorous, they all ultimately rely on storytelling to attract readers.
The protagonist is a pure and innocent psionic Ding Zhen!
It feels like my brain can't hold any knowledge other than psionic energy and the Great Source; there's a kind of beauty that comes from being untouched by knowledge (and in the last few dozen chapters, it feels like the author has consciously or unconsciously emphasized this label more than once, which is hard to watch).
