Reborn in the Martial World

I miss it so much! This was the first martial arts novel I ever read, and it was because of this book that I started reading Jin Yong's and other martial arts novels. To me, this is definitely a masterpiece, maybe it's just my bias! To be honest, this book was already very good for that era.

I've been so exhausted lately. I just saw the news that Jack Ma is only 300 million short of surpassing Li Ka-shing to become Asia's richest man, and my heart skipped a beat. I quickly checked my ranking online, and it seems basically unaffected; I'm still around 1.4 Billionth. I'm relieved! Actually, I'm a dreamer too.

A timeless classic, a childhood memory.

This book, written 15 years ago, was also the first book I ever read. I dedicate this to my youth.

The author writes without any thought. The courtyard where the top 100 disciples of the Lower Academy live covers hundreds of acres. Let's say 500 acres. At 666 square meters per acre, 500 acres would be over 300,000 square meters. And this is just for the top 100 disciples of the Lower Academy. There are also the real top 100 disciples, and above them is the Upper Academy.

What is a "god-level" player? Someone who transmigrates and, as an ordinary person with no martial arts skills, wreaks havoc, killing hundreds of bandits who know a little kung fu—that's too fantastical. And then, in chapter five, some kind of saintess appears! How many copies of this book are you going to publish? This is the pace of a typical light novel!

The Dugu Nine Swords has been hyped up to an extreme! I don't understand why you guys like this crappy sword technique so much? Just because it's powerful in the era of declining martial arts in *The Smiling, Proud Wanderer*? The problem is, there are many martial arts techniques in *The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber* that it can't compare to! Not to mention *Ode to Gallantry*, *The Return of the Condor Heroes*, *The Legend of the Condor Heroes*, and *Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils*.

A group of senior students who had trained for four years challenged freshmen who had only trained for two months. They defeated the second-ranked freshman in over 200 moves, then proceeded to taunt him, calling everyone else trash. This is utterly ridiculous. It's like a fourth-grade student taking the same test as a first-grader, scoring two points higher, and then calling the first-grader trash. Where did they get the audacity?

You use the phrases "superb skill" and "transcendental" like they're toilet paper!

Honestly, this novel is completely unimmersive, and the writing is terrible.
