The Proud Female Protagonist? I’ll Take Her!

I'm taking a break today. [Sfem:3:306] I never imagined that I, who haven't stopped updating for four years, would have to stop updating because of an acute kidney stone attack.

The pacing in the beginning was good, although the overpowered abilities were a bit excessive, but that's typical of invincible stories. Overall, it was enjoyable and smooth. However, the pacing fell apart in the dungeon arc... Twists and turns are only truly effective when they happen suddenly; constant twists and turns just become tiresome. The early twists and turns were just right, not too exaggerated, and only a couple of twists were needed to reach their limit, creating both excitement and conveying messages. But the dungeon arc was clearly too long and crammed with too much content. First, let's talk about the gauntlet battles. In novels with many characters, each character naturally needs to be developed, especially within a single arc, where they should each have their own role to play, but this should be distributed...

I've read up to Chapter 78 of Volume 2. This is a typical "power fantasy" novel, and while it's enjoyable, it feels strange, like a mindless wish-fulfillment story. The biggest problem lies in the combat power and cultivation realms. The protagonist's combat power is a mystery; he's supposedly at the peak of the mortal realm, but he practically crushes everything, practically wielding the title of the strongest on earth. He can instantly kill someone across two major realms—has he completely ignored the cultivation realm system in Xianxia novels? What's the point of writing about cultivation realms? It's superfluous. To be honest, it's quite boring. He manages to show off, but it's a tired, overused trope. Moreover, although it's a new book, it lacks originality. I've seen countless villainous novels...

Overall, up to chapter 138, this book, as a transmigration/reincarnation novel, has a very interesting story, with the main appeal being the protagonist's boasting and the supporting characters' transformations. The plot design shows the author's meticulous crafting; the transformations are logical and well-founded, and foreshadowing is well-developed. However, the book also has worrying shortcomings, such as the low power ceiling, which limits the potential for growth. Leaving aside the protagonist Zhang Liang, the protagonists Tuan Ying and Heng Nai Si seem to have reached a level of power second only to Bai Huo, the current apparent power level, meaning they don't need to continue studying and could even become teachers directly. And the story is clearly only just beginning...

Congratulations to the author for achieving 1000 chapters without interruption. Pineapple Bun System reward... Ah, no reward.

Wishing everyone a happy and healthy Dragon Boat Festival! [Sfem:3:318][sfem:3:318]

I'm so sorry, older brothers and sisters, I'm only in second grade. Could you give me a few months' worth of freebies for Children's Day this weekend? 🙏🙏

Happy Labor Day! This humble author didn't get a break, thank goodness!

Up to chapter 255, to briefly summarize my impressions: It's satisfying to hoard the book, but catching up on updates is torture. This is partly due to the relatively low daily update frequency, but another major reason is the varying level of detail. Issues like the dragon-fighting mechanic in the ninth level have already been discussed in other readers' reviews, so I won't elaborate here. Take the example of the merchant trying to manipulate the pre-sale coupons; the excessive explanations slowed down the pace of each chapter. By this point, the audience had already trusted the protagonist, and the conflict between the merchant group and the protagonist could have been quickly explained, with the protagonist then refuting their motives (if there were more chapters available each day, this part could be ignored). But setting aside the agonizing wait for updates, this novel has many advantages...

Still writing? Wow, it's already at 500 words!
