Since the story is about a gentleman's sword, I hope the author can portray the protagonist as a gentleman to the end, which is what everyone is hoping for. Otherwise, if it ends up being "Little Man Sword," what would be the point of choosing to transmigrate into that person? Why not write about Zhang San and Li Si? Although it will test the author's writing skills, I hope they can do so and stay true to their original aspirations.
Linghu Chong is being overhyped.
The author thinks Yue Buqun is trash, which is fine, but the beginning and introduction are full of the author's own personal opinions and disdain for Yue Buqun. Then they excessively praised Linghu Chong, portraying him as a wonderful person.
I've transmigrated into the body of Yue Buqun, so I'll just use Yue Buqun as my name; otherwise, I'll keep switching between the two names.
Yue Buqun is a villain with a built-in cheat ability.
The eldest disciple has an unparalleled memory and is a genius in internal martial arts. There was an old man lying behind the mountain who had no personal grudge against me. Although allies are not perfect, they each have their own strengths. What can be done? Excessive selfishness led to the development of a talented disciple under the tutelage of others.
Why do I apply a debuff to the main character?
Many readers may wonder why I would apply a debuff to the protagonist. Because… The story of Yue Gonggong's comeback with his cheat code and God's perspective still illustrates that Yue Gonggong, who "didn't have cheat codes and God's perspective," was innocent and helpless. Having a cheat code and a god-like perspective deviates from the main theme.
You can say that Lao Yue doesn't know how to teach his apprentices, but you can't say that he deliberately teaches them inappropriately. There are too many flaws; it's unwatchable.
The characters I admire most in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer are Yue Buqun and Lin Pingzhi. They both had such difficult lives, one for the sake of their sect and the other for revenge. Linghu Chong deserved to die the most.
Regardless, it's rare to see Yue Buqun portrayed without being whitewashed, so we should definitely support him.
Actually, a few years ago, Qidian (a Chinese online literature platform) also had a writer who didn't follow the trend and wrote a normal *Swordsman* fanfiction. This guy was pretty awesome; he couldn't stand the online hype about whitewashing Yue Buqun, so he boldly made the protagonist a time-traveling Linghu Chong. Yue Buqun was also a very normal hypocrite character.
It's well-written, showing your own ideas and not just following the crowd.
