If you like a story in which all characters AREN'T complete trash, this definitely isn't the novel for you. Author seems to get enjoyment in having control and power over how much he can make the 'MC' suffer. The entirety of the novel goes like this -> MC lacks information -> MC encounters an arrogant/scheming character/group -> Those people/group tries to walk over the MC and take advantage of him -> Makes enemies with major group or important individual (through no fault of his own -> MC gets chased/almost killed -> MC gets power up. Not to mention that every area he enters he is almost immediately taken captive/forced to do something stupid. His only parent (father) is supposedly very powerful from a big family yet just left his son without ANY PREPARATION for essentially an apocalypse. The world he came from was UNIFIED, yet his grandfather (THE EMPEROR) encourages everyone to chase/KILL his grandson "for his own benefit". Even to the last chapter I read, everything I read is exactly like this...just bigger enemies and more complicated schemes. Unless you are completely masochistic or sadistic (like watching the MC suffer throughout his entire life) I suggest NOT picking up this novel. Waste of time and effort.
it was great, until the Chinese clichés and racism startedthere is even racism against people from other regions of china, as if they were weaker for living elsewhere
The story begins with our main character betting on having potential to be a sorcerer, and having the bet pay off. Some world building ensues, but as of CH15 the power levels and power progression systems are still a bit fuzzy. The characters are interesting but fairly one dimensional, although in fairness there hasn't been much chance to develop them yet. The story recently took a twist which seems to embark into a much more ruthless path than what was originally set. I'll update this review as necessary.So far I set updating stability at 5/5, since it's fairly early and I think giving people the benefit of the doubt is necessary. I'll also update that as we keep getting releases.
