If you are REALLY curious about the meanings of character names, read below. Might be a little LONG. No spoiler.
First of all, we should know that Chinese is a tonal language, while English assigns stress to one syllable of every word. Tone is one of the distinctive features of standard Chinese(Mandarin). If we neglect the four tones in the transcription of Chinese names, we may lose/misunderstand informations, sometimes are quite important. Just look at these names: Chén Guǒ(Boss), Wèi Chēn(God of shamelessness), and Wǔ Chén(Captain of Team Everlasting). We’ve got three “Chen”s here but they don’t share the same tone. Yep, there are still two of them alike, but if we write them down in ideogram, you’ll see that they are completely different(of course their meaning varies). Now we’re at around Chapter 800, as a Chinese fan who has run through the whole novel four times, if you already find it hard remembering Chinese names, well, keep working, cuz still loads of new names ahead.
I mentioned this point just because I saw a comment saying their names are similar. In fact, not at all
I'm one of the translators working under NomYummi on TKA, Jouissance! Just here to say that we hope you're enjoying our translations (and our bonus chapters) and we'll do our best to carry this through and give you the best translations! TKA will be going through a bit of refining in the near future and remember to check the Wikia, where additional information can be found (but beware of spoilers!)
I myself am on chapter 1449 right now, and I can assure you that this novel just gets better and better, and even has an awesome prequel called Top Glory, so keep reading!
Also, some very shameless advertising:
There are two rather active discord channels that we know of (after I notified Nom of the existence of the comments section XD)
The following link goes to the less spoiler-filled, more chat-based, slightly more tame (???) and very, very active discord with bots aplenty.
https://discord.gg/PpRnvgK
The following link goes to the more art/fanwork-based and nearly equally as active discord that has a NSFW section and shippers aplenty.
https://discord.gg/GyHZgQT
They have both been previously advertised, but we decided to make it official. I think there might be more - I know there's apparently a dead one derived from the reddit - but me and Nom know of and are on these two, haha.
The next link takes you to the wikia!

And last but not least is our Patreon, where you can come to support us, read ahead and push us into releasing more often, haha!

Anyways, that's about all I have to say! Look forward to seeing you on the discord servers!
I remember this was the first story that got me into web novels to begin with. I remember watching the anime and instantly wanting more so i read the novel but man, i was really hoping for romance at the time.
I remember the author seemed to tease it too, it seemed like there were a few ships but they never sailed. I slowly got bored of the repetition and dropped it. Wasn’t a bad read tho, gotta just try it out and see if you’ll like it, just don’t expect an ounce of romance fr.
