In short, the author makes the protagonist's behavior illogical for the sake of the plot, so I suggest avoiding all the self-inflicted plot twists and foreshadowing. However, the overall atmosphere and environmental descriptions are fine. The protagonist initially gives off a spoiled, domineering female lead vibe, especially with that line about how it's okay to catch only one fish out of so many in the lake – it's illogical and makes the female lead seem too… well, you should just write about her being single and avoid all this.
It was alright at first, but the more I read, the more I realized the logic was seriously flawed. The author keeps complaining about the low subscription rate, but seriously, think about it! It's just a rambling account, and despite having the ability to instantly kill, he always holds back. And what's the point of learning this spell? He's supposed to be a master, yet he's still fighting like a martial arts expert with fists and swords... Sigh.
Having read more than half, the male lead is like a roadside figure—lacking both ability and emotional value. He's practically invisible 95% of the time, and his character is utterly unappealing. You could practically delete him and it wouldn't affect the female lead at all. The romance is incredibly weak, a far cry from the previous book.
Some toxic spots were discovered.
Well, I like both her composure and her lively charm. But it would be even better if she could maintain a touch of composure within her liveliness. She was quite composed at first, but for some reason, she suddenly became incredibly stupid. Before transmigrating, she almost got beaten to death for simply washing a piece of clothing that was torn. Now she's directly provoking the head of the family's daughter and eating her rabbit. In today's terms, it's like being a nanny and then eating the master's dog. And she hasn't even properly disposed of the evidence. If she gets caught, she'll be finished! After learning martial arts, she's become arrogant and has lost her initial composure, becoming extremely reckless. She shouldn't cause trouble for herself...
After finishing the first volume of "The Road to Life in the Martial World" and checking out the ending, I found that this book doesn't feel like a marriage story but rather a single novel with a strong female lead. I can only say that it didn't suit my taste. Skipping the middle part was only because there was nothing new after the female lead escaped her predicament. On the contrary, the most interesting part was the first volume, where the female lead transformed from a laundry girl into a swordswoman. The subsequent demon-slaying scenes were not very interesting.
The protagonist's character design is a bit hard to accept...
After reading a few chapters, I feel the protagonist is the type who would risk his life for small gains but hesitates to act recklessly for big things. A normal person, seeing all the oddities in the manor—the manor owner's son, Granny Wang—and everyone seemingly aware of her yet not quite, would have already fled after mastering four or five levels of martial arts. It's not like they're short of money; the manor wouldn't send any experts to chase after a lost maid. But the protagonist is different. He insists on mastering the entire martial arts manual before he runs away. He could just quietly practice until he's done and then escape, but no, he has to go out and have fun. He goes fishing one day, roasts the master's rabbit the next—it's all about playing.
Keep it up, Radish! Show some of your domineering skills from when you were conquering the literary world. Don't hold back on the emotional descriptions in this marriage story!
The author must clearly describe the details of the bridal chamber!
Works where fantasy and demon elements outweigh marriage elements
It's worth following, avoids the omniscient perspective and has no major plot holes. The writing style is average; I think I've read some of the author's previous works, and I feel the writing hasn't improved much. However, the pacing is good, without rushed storylines or filler. A substantial story makes paying for it worthwhile. The plot seems to shift towards fantasy and demonic elements later on, but currently it leans more towards martial arts and chivalry. The element of a "marriage change" is very low at this stage. Personally, I feel the protagonist's growth rate is a bit too fast. Of course, it could also be that the enemies are genuinely countered and careless. The fact that she can engage in direct combat so quickly and even use various external forces to repel them suggests she'll be a very strong female lead. For me, the "marriage change" element...
When will the new book be updated?
