This story is hard to recommend for others to read unless you're specifically here to read about the genderbending MC or yuri and can shut off your brain on any logic in this story. This story is so terribly slow-paced with less then 7 days having passed across nearly 400 chapters (even though the story gives you a time limit of 3 years at the start) and everybody but the main character and her harem members has less than 10 brain cells in order to justify them going against the very obviously OP MC. Story progress has become nearly non-existent as most of the chapters just drivel on about nonsense such as how the observing 3rd party players/npcs react to whatever the MC does or describing the one-dimensional, in-creative thought process of the antagonists. There's also a fair bit of racism and nationalism from the author in this story, especially against all things related to America. "You hurt/killed my brother/disciple/subordinate! I'll return this shame and humiliation a hundredfold if it's the last thing I'll do!"*Proceeds to die*"You hurt/killed my..."This sort of thing ends up being repeatedly recycled and then mouthfed to you as the reason for nearly every single conflict in this story, whether it's in the virtual game or the real world, 70% of the time. The other 30% is just literally because of pure greed or lust of anything related to the MC even though just half a second of thinking would tell you the risks far outweigh the benefits. For example, every single player in the virtual world act like drooling hyenas that try to attack the MC given the first opportunity in order to only get a slight chance of her OP items being dropped (even though it'll basically never happen given her extremely high luck) despite the fact upon death you'd lose levels, that become exponentially more difficult to raise every 5 levels.Any logic in the virtual world seems to also exist for the sole purpose of going against the MC, whether it's the fact that it's systematically engineered to be pay-to-win on more than a hundred different levels, in order to justify how other players can go against how OP the MC is or how the terribly balanced the punishment for PVP or NPC-killing is that it doesn't even allow you to act in self-defense or touch a single hair on npcs even if they've been bribed to try to kill you.People in this story always have near-instant and completely accurate information given to them about the MC as though everyone has nothing better to do other than squat in the forums or spread rumours to justify the slow pace of the story. Antagonists end up being strangely competent in the speed of their bad decision making, willing to use their entire life savings and their entire organization just to go against her after the slightest humiliation. Every npc in the game can face-recognize the MC at a glance and know about her infamy hours after the deed. Among the worst part of this story is how the author very openly brings up his nationalism for the great Cathay (aka China) and how terrible America is to a immersive-breaking degree. His shallow understanding of anything overseas is that Korea and Japan are America's lapdogs, who are willing to bend over backwards just to please them while America is a strong-arming nation who pays no respect to any foreigners and is racist against anyone who isn't white.
