“These days, a male lead can get by without being six feet tall and leggy, but he can’t weigh less than ninety pounds!” “Xiang Dong’s muscles are too big. He doesn’t look graceful enough. Have him play the enemy general who gets killed with one sword stroke by our top-tier star, to show off our leading man’s heroic bearing!” Hearing the director’s instructions, Xiang Dong, who had transmigrated with the [Warrior General Acting System], let out a cold laugh. In this deformed world, where delicate, feminine looks are considered beautiful, tough, battle-hardened men are box-office poison. Generals who once charged through battlefields have become props for pretty young stars to look cool and romance their co-stars.
