lmao im rewriting this bc i pressed the wrong stars. The writing is better than most original novels on WN, these are my thoughts on how it can be improved. I found the first few chapters were very direct. Its good to be clear about what you're trying to say, but sometimes its just a little too on the nose for my taste. Instead of saying 'The Vermilion family is declining.' Maybe you can try: 'He had watched how the brother of his heart bore the Vermilion clan' s burdens on his shoulders. Inch by inch, their influence had been relocated unjustly by the crown. After many springs had come and gone, the Vermilion family had become the shadow of their former glory.' Something like that (idk i just wrote that on the spot sorry if thats crap). I'm not so in love with the characters yet. I appreciate their relationships with each other, but I hope to see layers beyond that in the future. The MC seems to be the most fleshed out, but I hope to see more depth to the other characters as well. Hopefully this helped the author to address some of the things that can help create a more engaging novel (of course, its all just my thoughts. im not an authority or anything). I'll be keeping this in my library because I'm really excited to see how the author improves! He/she is very engaging and asks for criticism often, which is wonderful to see. Author I'm rooting for you!

The writing is good just minor grammatical errors in chapter three. I stopped at chapter five just because it's not a story for me but I encourage anyone who loves cultivation with comedy, romance and a weak ML who overcomes adversity with a bit of a cheat to definitely give it a chance. The author dives you into the background of the ML and let's you take a snippet if his life prior to his real story. The fluidity of the words and when the grammar is correct, let's you immerse into the world effortlessly.
When I first started reading in webnovels, it was the cultivation types that drew me in. This novel has all the stuff that I like: a weak-to-strong MC who is destined to be OP and some romance. I hope this is not going to be harem but that is my own personal preference. I notice a LOT of fans in cultivation novels adores harems. Writing Quality: English is not my first language, so I'm not that picky with grammar and such. Mainly because I don't really notice them myself. Overall, decent quality - it's not perfect but it's not bad. I've read some REALLY bad ones and this is far from it. Although, having the ML and some of the character's names being referred to with their full name was kind of distracting in the beginning chapters. The Author seems to have corrected/changed it to just first name basis from Chapter 20 or so onwards at the point of writing. That makes it SO much easier and less weird (imo). Stability of Updates: 5* in good faith. It's still new and any slow updates are with valid reasons. Story Development: I'm biased since it is in the manner I like. It's great to see how he's working so hard and not just basing it on 'talent' and such. The BEST thing so far is that the first female character - that the ML is engaged to since young - is actually NICE. No backstabbing and wanting to break engagement because he was a waste. Character Design & World Background: Interesting, fleshed out nicely for me and one can get into it. All the best author! This one remains in my Library because I like it. Thanks!
The writing keeps on improving with the chapters. There are a few mistakes here and there but they are not that noticeable. I like the interactions of the protagonist. And the background world is good too. So far, it is a nice one! Keep writing!
Here goes, I was a big fan of cultivation kind of story and I believed that this novel has the potential like most cultivation novels. In the beginning, the interaction between the character seemed lacking as the author focus more on the thoughts of the main character. Still, it was a good read. As you read on, you'll see that the storyline is more polished and well-arranged. I really love the part where the MC met the good people and interacted with them. The minus for this novel was the language especially the grammatical part. Well, I'm not an expert so I will not focused on that. But don't be disheartened, the errors will not impede your understanding of the whole story. Hence, it was (for me at least) a satisfying read. 😊
All in all, the writing is pretty good. I loved the opening and world-building. There are a few grammar mistakes here and there, and the wording can get a bit redundant. The tenses need to stay consistent throughout the story. There is one thing that I want to point out. The author does it frequently. [ "Why am I even thinking of these foolish things.", Arthur said inwardly to himself. ] It should be: [ "Why am I even thinking of these foolish things," Arthur said inwardly to himself. ] Also, this is supposed to be an Eastern Fantasy novel, but some of the character's names are in English. That kind of throws me off, but maybe I'm just being picky. Other than that, it is a good read. Keep writing, author!
Here to inform those who have been reading this to re-read the earlier chapters as I have edited it. So far I only proofreaded and modified chapters 1-3. Don't mind this shameless 5-star review.
Only some minor awkward wording, grammar issues, etc. Besides those small mistakes, the book is, in all honesty, a nice read. I enjoyed what there is so far. Dialogue and creativity are good.
This novel has a vibes of BTTH! The plot is cool and the characters too. The FL (maybe) is a good girl. I like her character.. She did not look down to the MC. Thumb's up for her. Writing quality was good. You have a grammar skills there. (Just need a little polishing) World background and character design was properly introduced.. Nice work. Keep it up!👍👍
What I like about this story is the MC's determination to be stronger (skill+mastery). The family hierarchy was easy to get the gist of to. I like the MC's friendships. The pacing is good. There's definitely a lot that needs to be worked on with this story. I recommend reading some similar native English stories like Harry Potter. As I think they may help you with ideas on drawing out more distinctions and subtleties of the characters. You have a potential good story here. With some fine tuning and tightening it can go far. Thanks for sharing. Keep writing.
Like any other authors out there, I will also start off with an introduction of me being a thick-faced man who rated their own novels with a 5 star. Anyway, I am encouraging everyone who is reading this to give this novel a bite. Just for a heads up, the update of this novel is slow since the author is a very hard-working student (actually I'm not, it's just for pretenses). Thanks.

WOW******************************W SO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD. REALLY AWESOAWM WORK BRO. I Am a guy buut I honestly think I am falling in love with you now.
Although I'm not a cultivation fan, the story managed to draw me in, I love how you gave us the ML's history, that was a wise play, the writing is also really good and flows well.
I actually forget why I have this book in my library since I don’t remember whether I initiated a review swap with you or not. If I did, forgive this goldfish for being forgetful. XD If I didn’t, oh well I had some reason lol! And I was on chapter 3 too. Now on chapter ten, I thought I’d write a quick review. Writing and Updates: 5 The writing in particular flows really weak. Oddly enough, it somehow very slightly detracts from the action scenes, making them almost too fluid. This is not bad tho; I think maybe just a little more thrill needs to be added to them. Story, Character, World: 4 All are well on their way to 5, but I just don’t quite see it there yet. The story lacks something really substantial on which to move forward. At this point, it’s just Arthur protecting Jade Rose technically. I’d like to see a bigger corruption, battle, or plot start to unfold in these first 10 chapters. I’m sure there eventually will be, but it’s good to input the clear allusions in the beginning. Character-wise, they’re all ok and fleshed out somewhat. But they lack something distinctive to separate them from any ML and FL in any story. I imagine their characters will be rounded out more in the future. I do see that they like each other but don’t know that the other likes them. Seen that type of plot before, but that’s still interesting for readers to follow. Overall, fluidly well-written, good story! Keep polishing and writing~!
