I'm not sure whether this novel has been translated with MTL or not, because when I translate the raws with MTL the translation is way better than this. Is this caveman speak or what?

This novel is just trash. I'm only at chapter 5 and already there are many issues. 1. The protagonist is stupid. He is greedy for progress and careless, taking completely unneeded risks. Additionally he has one skill and and hesitates to put his points into it in a life and death situation. I would say he is as intelligent as my 10 year old self. Truly pathetic. 2. The system is already inconsistent. He suddenly has more energy points than in the last chapter. I repeat, this was chapter 5. 3. There is zero world-building. Only his room, sister and brother get a description, everything else just is. He way as well live in a world made out of cardboard. Conclusion: I have read better novels I have rated 1 star. This is a zero star novel. At least it in a fantasy setting and likely won't have racism. Making it a part of the bottom 1% of novels I've read, but not a contender for worst novel ever. I bet 20 bucks most, if not all, of those 5 star reviews are bought.

If you want a trash author pumping out multiple trash chapters per day (like it is common on this site) then go elsewhere.

1 Star for racism. The end. ..............................................................................................................................................

Should have given 1 star, racism and propaganda always deserves 1 star.

This novel is total mess. It starts with a good premise, though with a retarted Junior Sister. I guess before her regression something injured her soul and permanently crippled her IQ or something, because she would have been a smarter 10 year old if she wasn't a regressor. Then even this premise gets ruined. What made this novel good gets thrown away for increasingly random plotlines. Then even the setting gets ruined and unfitting plots get introduced. Imagine a realistic novel about living in medieval times. All goes well, but the author runs out of ideas and decides by chapter 100 a sudden demon invasion is a good idea. By chapter 200 he doesn't know to process and suddenly dinosaurs overrun the earth. Another hundred chapters later aliens invade the world. It is an idiotic and illogical mess full of plot holes. It starts at 3 stars, soon drops to 2 stars and then the author tries his best to make the worst possible novel ever witnessed by mankind.

Trash, for this to have 4 stars you can tell that webnovel is a trash site. Why can't I finally lose hope finding good novels on this platform?

Edit: I've also encountered chinese authors expressively saying they would like to commit genocide against every person not chinese in their novel.

I doubt the author was forced to involve racism, nationalism could have been a possibility, but racism against black people is rampant in China. Like the is that one detergent ad, in which a black person gets shoved into a washing machine and gets washes "clean" into a chinese person. There is also a trend of chinese people going to Africa and giving black people money to film them saying "I am inferior, black people are inferior, chinese are the master race." in chinese, without them actually knowing what they are saying. China also has "reeducation" camps in which they stuff the members of their muslim minority. You can imagine them like the camps german people stuffed Jews into, just without the gas. So no outright genocide, but still high casuality rate.

The only novels I encountered racism and nationalism in are chinese and korean. Many novels like The Witcher and so on have no connection to real life and as such don't even have the possibility of containing racism against others in real life. However chinese novels contantly draw connections to real life and casually add things like "Lu Ser didn't like the barbarians, because they attacked the great Xia every other year." China is present in nearly every novel and there are barbarians most of the time. And if there isn't any country there are homophobic or racist phrases directed at gay and black people. China and chinese novels represent the most capitalistic (depicting corruption and bribery as normal and laws not affecting rich people), nationalistic and racist mindset I know of in the world. The heck, my country is capitalistic and is less capitalistic than ('sozialist') China.

If someone from this websites' staff has time to take down my comment for swearing, then they may as well take down novels pirated from other websites- oh, I forgot, this is a pirate website.

A pretty nice story ruined by a mother fuc king son of a who re asshole, who tries to earn money by selling edited MTL which he managed to make worse than me using MTL myself...

Do you know there is another translation at Sky Demon Order around 20 chapters ahead of you? Though, don't worry, besides delivering this to a broader audience your work has additional value. The other translation is on a website with both a paywall and no links between chapters, which shows that before even properly setting up their website they are trying to earn money, truly shameless. (Though their translation quality is far superior, you need to work on that, dear translator)

I should have listened to other reviewers. At the beginning the novel delivered what the synopsis promised but it soon deteriorates. It turns into a story which can be summarized the following way: Training, killing, training, killing, training, killing, killing, killing, killing, training training, killing, training... The author threw away what made this story interesting and instead turned this novel into a standard Xianxia novel even below average compared to other standard Xianxia novels. The only good thing is in this novel women aren't getting objectived like in other novels.
