Web Novel Picks: Not for Beginners, Off the Beaten Path
Not beginner-level fiction. Personal taste, entirely subjective. I'll score each work based on my preferences, out of 10. The books on the rankings are pretty good, but most put commercial success first. They're like junk food: great the first time, but too much gets cloying, and they don't have much to offer beyond passing the time. These days I mostly browse at random, and I'm not as free as I used to be, so finding a book that suits my taste is pretty rare. I've read every book I review. I

As a Shennong (a legendary figure associated with agriculture), I feel obligated to say a few words before I run away. First, I think the title should be "As the Dragon King, I was reborn in another world, living in anonymity for ten years before suddenly starting to act arrogantly and inexplicably winning over a princess.
This book is really good, except the title could be changed. If Toad wrote "The First Magical World War," you could write "The Second Magical World War." Changing it would guarantee a hit. If you really become famous, just give me some Qidian coins (a type of virtual currency) – I don't have any other hobbies, I just feel a bit empty inside.
This synopsis sounds interesting, but I wonder what the plot will be like. Don't give me that nonsense about wizards and mages from tier one to tier nine. We, the Knight Seed Breathing Technique users, are all good friends. I'm quite interested in Western fantasy, but most of them are basically just reskinned cultivation novels; they just change a bunch of exaggerated and nonsensical words and call it another book.
I ordered over 100 chapters directly and am currently on the VIP section. Could you please stop adjusting the data? The data you wrote makes me laugh. The entire island has over 60,000 people. You're going to have over 20,000 full-time students? 400 Teachers? What does that mean? Over 20,000 mage apprentices. Full-time. I forgot how much it cost the protagonist to graduate.
The protagonist secluded himself for ten years, accumulating a huge debt and being treated as a good-for-nothing by others. Then, when the ten-year period was up, he offended a duke and a powerful king in order to marry a princess. Please tell me how the protagonist thinks.
Stallions
He goes after every one he sees! He doesn't even spare a 50-year-old woman who's had nine children 😰 666 I don't dislike harems, but this is just too outrageous! The farming/development elements are pitifully few! After only a few chapters, he starts mindlessly sweeping through everything, getting whatever he wants 😅
The sudden appearance of childhood sweethearts and ten-year apprenticeships at the beginning are acceptable. But could you please be a little more vague about the development of your territory? Directly having 22,000 full-time students—what does that even mean? Can you specify how many apprentices or even mages you'll train in how many years?
Judging from the title, this book should be a lord-themed novel. I hope it returns to the territory soon, showing the various ingenious uses of magic, developing the territory well, and then conquering the world. Don't spend tens of thousands of words just scamming money and hiding from danger; it's not like you're going back to the territory and never coming out again.
Regarding warships
Did the author eat concrete this morning? 50 Meters long, 8 meters wide, and 10 meters high from the waterline to the deck (excluding draft)? Full load displacement 2800 tons? Like slapping your butt and having diarrhea, what kind of data comes out? In short, this design has two fatal flaws:
To be fair, this kind of lord-themed story without individual superpowers is quite good. It's probably because the author writes well. Hopefully, the author will continue to maintain this level of writing. 🙂
