this appears to be 网游之最强房东 , the first book from the author of Custom Made Demon King was surprised to learn that since it doesn't feel dated at all, very pleasant read

Blazed through the first 60 chapters one night before going to sleep, woke up and realized I wasn't interested in the lore or the magic system or the main character or the main heroine. Pretty good writing quality, and based on the table of contents the author does seem to keep up his creativity, just not really my preference.

Had a really strong start but I kind of lost interest after he got promoted to direct disciple and had less pressure on him to get things done. The author might have noticed that problem and fixed it at some point, but I didn't have the patience to wait and see - maybe patience would be rewarded.

I liked the more urban beginning where he strikes it rich with historical artifacts, but once he starts to cultivate and it becomes more like a reiki recovery story, I feel like the book suffers from not having a very in-depth power or combat system. I didn't read very far into that section though, so it might get better for more patient readers.

funny, pleasant, has enough chapters in the raw that the author probably won't drop it out of nowhere, filler text to meet the word count requirement

boring worldbuilding, power system is imbalanced and doesn't have good room for growth, the prose is fine but that doesn't salvage the concept

this story slaps lol, read 230 chapters in the raw and it did a good job of making each new conflict feel like it had stakes and a real risk of failure/loss

反派大师兄，师妹们全是病娇 can't really say much about the story since i stopped reading at chapter 47; MTL is hard

this is the most interesting of the trial reads IMO but the translation quality is the worst i've seen in a long time... i would literally rather read a machine translation if the TL team gets its act together once the story is confirmed for publication, this could be a good one, but if it's going to maintain this same quality there's no reason to read it

ok, it was easy enough to read all of what's been translated so far, but it was kind of boring tbh if any of the other trial reads are any good (haven't read them yet) you should maybe pass this one over

全民游戏：从丧尸末日开始挂机

wow wow great love to see a no-nonsense cooking novel, really hope we can see more chapters 1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456

good stuff! looking forward to reading more still think it's really weird that the author changed the dragon color in the middle of writing (the gem in the greatsword is even referred to as a sapphire rather than a ruby once), but now that they've settled on red it should probably be fine for the rest of the story

another story about D&D wizards from the guy who wrote The Truth of Magic i thought he'd learned his lesson because this one has a much stronger setting and starting system, but after ~100 chapters he jumps the shark again and throws out everything to have dumb action scenes where none of his previous powers matter and neither do the side characters

all the modern business analogies remind me a lot of Divine Card Creator, which was nice haven't read far enough to really say more than that though

我在东京教剑道

Woo! This story is great, loved it for at least the first 110 chapters, always meant to read more but kind of put it on the back-burner, so if it gets a real English translation that would be the perfect chance to get back into things. Only problem I remember is that some of the fight scenes are really... meh... but the meat of the story is kingdom/minion management, so I don't really mind that

kind of dull but i read all 20 chapters so it obviously isn't that bad by my standards would be fine if it got picked, would be fine if it disappeared and i forgot about it forever

extremely faithful adaptation of WoW-style gameplay, which makes for an incredibly boring book imo would have rated it 1/5 if not for the cat
