Greetings, my fellow cultured ladies and gentlemen. If you have read this book in the past but then dropped it for whatever reason, this review is for you. Minor spoilers ahead! Beware.
After taking feedback from readers and editors alike, I have went back and edited a lot of the previous storyline (e.g. bringing the huntress along, MC making 'mistakes' despite his years of experience) to make it more realistic and fitting of the MC's character. I sincerely recommend giving this book another try, as I have fixed many of the previous inconsistencies.
Thank you to everyone who does give this book another shot, and I hope you all have an awesome day. :)
Overall it is readable, sadly there are many inconsistencies. Like it was established that Xuan(The MC) wasn't actually that much stronger than the second ranked player and rather always one because he fought with his brain and had ample preparations, yet somehow he completely trusts in a new technique and has no backup plan almost getting himself killed by someone with a fraction of his experience. Then there is the fact that such an experienced, smart individual despite knowing the location of a certain item ahead of time never found it in his previous account purely because it didn't have an aura, despite already knowing about upgradeable artifacts as his main weapon was one, he had zero reason not to have it yet he somehow didn't. I get it would be inconvenient to lose this artifact with the reset but it conflicts with his character. There are indeed more cases but you should get my point, to advance the plot the author made the MC inconsistent with his background setting which shows a lack of planning.
Mc isn't stupid, he is smart, intelligent, calculating, not a coward or a skirt chaser.
Writing quality is good, grammer is also good, pacing is neither slow nor fast.
Overall a very nice start for the novel and it has potential to be one of the top novels in the platform.
What about the update stability? Author will you increase the chapter updates to 2/day or it will remain the same. [img=update]
Very good concept. Cant wait to see the future of this novel. The concept of the main character having spent thousands of in-game years slaughtering the other players would be a good back drop for making him not be phased by killing as well as making him a patient butcher. W W W I hope to see where you take this novel and i hope it succeeds
The main appeal of this story is definitely the looming threats for the main character (Xuan), or Zero, as he finds himself at square-one all over again, while at the same time still needing to worry about the threats that existed to him when he was at the apex. Overall it's just incredibly entertaining to see what sort of reaction characters have towards his existence.
I think if one finds the premise interesting they should definitely give it a go.
The story starts off with a slow-build up of exposition, which might not be for everyone. However, that's just the start, it quickly begins getting interesting and has a few unexpected twists.
The writing quality barely has any errors that I could find, at the same time it's easy to understand, as its been clearly edited before posting. So it's an easy read that won't make one scrunch their face wondering if they understood the sentence or not.
The unexpected developments as well as the introduction of what Xianxia online is are quite nice and leave you interested on what happens with Xuan and how he'll approach his looming problems, Since even though everything should be straightforward it clearly isn't.
One issue I have is that Xuan is a long-haired cultivator with ashen-white hair and red-eyes. Basically its not anything new, and to be honest it's not particularly relevant, so its easy to overlook.
The world is interesting as we get to see glimpses of what Xuan's old life as Zero was, as well as his old acquaintances. I think that's the main highlight. Looking forward to whatever is going to happen between his past and his current situation. It makes for a great hook of anticipation.
