A Veteran Reader’s Spiritual Sustenance
I’ve been reading since around 2000, and I’m a picky veteran reader. The books I follow always have something special about them.

You better write properly, I work every day to support you!
A true master is a true master; he never gives up, no matter how many times he's banned.
Judging from the comments, I know there's a problem with China's education system. Some people actually believe peace is a human right. Did they sleep through their political science class? Others think violence is useless. Did they sleep through their history class? If China didn't have the protection of violence, Western countries would probably have swallowed us whole.
The reward for the protagonist making a pair of red flower double sticks is 500 reputation points. I already don't understand why it cost 500 reputation points to buy Baguazhang. Didn't you already buy Sanda and Muay Thai? What's the point of buying so many martial arts styles? They're all so flashy and mixed up. You might as well upgrade the ones you already have.
There's a bizarre plot point in this book that's practically a major flaw that ruins it: the protagonist goes through all sorts of trouble to get over 2,000 points, then without hesitation spends 500 to buy just one centimeter of height. Author, do you really think you're being funny?
Why do Hong Kong books so often include Cantonese in them? Is this written for Cantonese speakers? It severely impacts our reading experience, making it very awkward, as we can't understand it.
I'm outta here. Teresa Teng really wasn't a beauty.
Everything else is fine; it's even acceptable as a lighthearted piece. The biggest flaw in this article is the portrayal of Teresa Teng. Ever since Teresa Teng came into the public eye, she's been mentioned every few days. You don't have any bias towards other female celebrities; you just casually mention them. But with Teresa Teng, it becomes like you're a simp.
Over two hundred chapters have passed, and the business is so big, yet there's not a penny to spare. It's all revolving around clothing; one minute they're short a few million, the next tens of millions, and what will they be short of hundreds of millions later? What's the point of this rebirth system then? There are some exciting moments, but not enough. Making money really revolves around the club, and the progress is a bit slow...
What kind of rubbish is this? It doesn't feel like a typical wish-fulfillment story at all. It's all about backstabbing and betrayal, with bits of Cantonese thrown in every now and then—it's a complete mess. It's far worse than your old books from a few years ago.
