Fantasy Agent

When I first saw this novel, I thought the author was going to write a novel about a king of soldiers or urban fantasy. But after clicking on it, I realized I was very wrong. The author was just putting on a show. This is a parody. The work has a grand setting, many characters, and a vast story background, especially the conflict between two superpowers, which gave it an epic feel. However, despite this grand setting, the author completely failed to capture that epic feeling. In the author's words, they wanted to start from the perspective of ordinary people, and while the ordinary people are there, they feel constrained. I've known the author since "Wind and Moon," and I want to say that "Tingyue," you didn't manage the pacing well in this work. You wasted so much of the potential. The character introductions in the first volume, with each character having their own small backstory, initially introduced the main characters. This writing style was something I'd never seen before, and indeed, we got to know five main characters and a female lead in a very short time. However, you later added a lot of urban descriptions, practically cramming the plot with settings in several chapters, making it dizzying to read. If this is necessary for science fiction, I have nothing to say, but your writing style has significant problems: grammatical errors, ambiguity, typos, and numerous censorship issues, making it very difficult to read. I know the author is very busy with studies and it's not easy to find time to write a novel every day, persisting entirely out of personal interest. But I want to say, if it's a hobby, at least try to make it as perfect as possible. The first volume was unremarkable, with a fairly ordinary plot and some occasional references. However, the second volume was a complete disaster. The initial version of the second volume I read didn't seem to be written by the author; the writing style was completely off. The author admitted it was written by a friend, and then deleted the second volume and jumped straight to the third. This created many problems. A bunch of characters and settings that should have been explained in the later volumes were simply omitted, making the later parts extremely difficult to understand. Honestly, the author had a great hand, but played it poorly at the beginning, essentially sabotaging themselves. The plot only took a turn for the better in the third volume, and I thought that's when the story would really get going, but I was wrong again. The author was just doing it for fun, having a bunch of people mindlessly fighting. As long as the plot was passable, that was fine; as long as the fighting was entertaining, that was all that mattered. I want to say, Tingyue, I haven't even figured out the setting yet, and you're just going to let them fight like this? Why introduce high-level fighters like this? Just say "have fun," but while you're having fun, it's so painful for me to watch. So, according to Tingyue herself, the fourth volume is the one that truly begins. If I could give the later volumes an 8 or 9 out of 10, I would have to give the first two volumes a failing grade. Compared to Tingyue's previous works, such as "Fengyue," which had a very accurate and unhurried pace in the early stages, Tingyue here seems to be in a rush. The story in Volume 4 is really good, especially the revelation of Angel's identity and the letter she leaves for Xie Liu at the end. It really touched my heart. However, the downside is that Tingyue didn't do enough foreshadowing in the early stages, making it feel like the emotions weren't fully developed. Tingyue also played with a flag-like plot device at the end, which is funny to those who understand it, but confusing to those who don't. It seems Tingyue doesn't care much about the readers' feelings, writing whatever makes her happy. But regardless, Volume 4 is still very good. The appearance of the Silver Flash team definitely made me look forward to it, and the later battles were well-written. The scene where Professor Nanfeng leaves with the child, walking towards the sunlight, while Xie Liu is left only in the shadows, is very vivid and evocative. Thumbs up! Next up is the Hokkaido battle. The plot is excellent, intricately linked, and covers everything. However, as I said before, Tingyue rushed things too much, leaving many things unexplained. Sometimes the transitions were too abrupt and confusing. Personally, I think this volume could have been 30,000 words longer to clarify the events. The battle between Wendy and Ace was the one I was most looking forward to, and the author didn't disappoint. The two were clearly outmatched, and when Ace defeated Wendy's side, the battle description was fluid and violent. Xie Liu's clever maneuvering was also quite interesting, showcasing the power of a level ten expert. Finally, there's the villain, Snake Fang. Seeing him at the end really made me feel sorry for him. He wasn't a bad person, but everything was a cruel twist of fate. Tingyue's novels never divide people into absolute good and evil, which I appreciate. The Hunter Tournament volume can be considered a minor climax. Tingyue slowed down the narrative pace, and overall, everything that needed to be introduced was clearly explained. The remaining issue is the writing style. I strongly suggest that Tingyue come back and revise it from the beginning when she has time, as the grammar and vocabulary in the first draft were terrible. Aside from these shortcomings, this volume was also incredibly exciting. "I, the weakest, challenge the strongest," all for a promise. When Lin Yang tells Ye Ling at the end, "If only a god can do this, then I will become a god for you," I jumped up in excitement. I must say, the entire Unlucky Team are true men. The cafeteria battle is Tingyue's tribute to her predecessors, and it's well-written. Many lines in the text are philosophical, which I also enjoyed. The battle between Franny and Chiba was violent, and the battle of the top four was also very good. Overall, the pacing was well-maintained, but the ending wasn't quite right, which is a pity. The "Heaven and Earth as Home" volume felt a bit padded out. The newly introduced characters felt somewhat superfluous. Ailu had some appeal, but she eventually became a background character. The high-speed battles and naval clashes felt rushed and lacked depth. The internal monologues were largely consumed by the fighting, making the characters' personalities unclear. Wang Qi's courage in sacrificing himself for his wife and daughter was commendable, but Tingyue's usual poor handling of endings left it feeling anticlimactic. The highlights of this volume were still the strange superpowers and the valiant female warrior Ailu. The latest volume has passed its climax, and the newly introduced character, Princess Oichi, is Oda Nobunaga's sister, which makes me quite excited for the rest of the story. The fight scenes in this volume are really well-written and detailed, especially the part where they wipe out that squad in the valley; the entire battle felt like a martial arts performance. The relationship between Oichi and Xie Liu seems a bit complicated later on, and Angela's reactions are so cute—will there be some romance? As for the rest of the plot, it's hard to guess; we'll have to wait for more from Tingyue. As for the "Betrayal of the Body" volume, I have to say, holy crap, what is this?! I didn't understand it at all the first time I read it, partly due to Tingyue's chaotic writing style. But after reading Tingyue's self-evaluation and rereading the plot, holy crap, it's amazing! This is truly something else; if you can understand it, it's a masterpiece; if you can't, it's garbage. It's packed with details; you can't afford to miss a single sentence. Towards the end of this volume, I was worried sick for the protagonist—did he die or not? And Angela is true love, is Tingyue really going to make her the female lead? And what about Oichi? I accidentally wrote a lot. This time, at Tingyue's request, I wrote a review, and she even gave me a word limit, which is too much. But I guess I'll just have to complete the task. In the end, I'd like to say this still unfinished novel: it's trash, it ruined my youth, goodbye.

I've come to read and support your work! The plot is cleverly arranged, and the writing is profound. I have a lot to learn from you! Keep it up! (ง •̀_•́)ง

Volume 5 is nearing its end, and the ending is actually quite predictable: the protagonist's team will undoubtedly take first place. The question is how to achieve this, given the formidable presence of a group of level 10 powerhouses standing in their way. According to my power ranking system, the strongest special forces soldier, Ace, is a benchmark for combat strength. If Ace alone could wipe out the protagonist's team, then there are many more level 10 powerhouses far stronger than Ace. How can the protagonist's team achieve final victory? This has been a major headache for the author lately. The power gap is too large. The battle royale mode has somewhat lowered the difficulty for the protagonist's team to reach the final round. The protagonist's team made it to the final round despite numerous challenges and ambushes, but they can't remain passive forever. They must defeat the two powerhouses of the "Godslayer Group" head-on, and they can't rely on Franny's help. So, the protagonist's shabby little team has to directly defeat two level 10 powerhouses... This is incredibly difficult...
