Honestly, this is hot garbage. The kind that you have to give a second sniff after backing away from just because it confused your nose the first time. It jumps into shit really fast, tells you that the MC is intelligent but only shows you a few slightly above average plays. The scenarios and everything really strain your belief in the world the author is weaving, making you want to ask what this bullshit is.

300+ chapters with very little in the way of actual resolution.

Honestly, I want to like this more than I actually do. The problems come from the extremely slow burn with the revenge plots. Every encounter that would be world shattering to an MC seems to slide right by as the antagonists constantly skim by until they ultimately bite the bullet. likely the ending will be very gratifying and change my opinion but at the moment with 200+ chapters it feels unsatisfying with the amount of resolution and constant compounding of suppression onto the MC. If the ending is done right this won't be a bad thing though, so I can only pray.

I found the early chapters really enjoyable, mid way the antagonists and general populace seems to become more irrational and mentally insufficient. Seriously, the 'netizens' have really short term memories. As usual, things get really repetitive, and the decisions making is kinda far-fetched but the face slapping is just as satisfying as it should be.

Been noticing this with a lot of the "Translations" and it makes the story feel really unnatural. The reactions and world setting get ruined when they do this kind of stuff.

Honestly feels like they ran a random wuxia novel through a machine translator then a wordprocessor and replaced all the usual cultivation jargon and Chinese names with their western equivalent to cheat a plagiarism algorithm.

I rate this story so low because it has a lack of consistency. The translation is inconsistent, the story sets up plots and then suddenly throws in a solution that was never mentioned until the author decides to solve it with some item that only gets mentioned when it gets used, characters quickly become irrelevant as the mc plows through cultivation levels meaning the character development never has time to happen. The story itself is basically just a cultivation novel with with names westernized and the cultivation swapped out with 'magic' though since the move names are basically all Wuxia sounding I'm guessing that's exactly what happened.
