Please don't listen to those haters, only you can decided if the story is good after reading it. If you don't want to read than don't read but... if you don't read you should'nt give it a rating and leave that to the ones who are interested in the novel. Also, you can see it as a form of respect for the translator who picked this up, even if you don't support please don't thrash it. Finally, there are no two identical minds in this world so you dont need... more>> to give this up because of some similarities. Every novel as it own charm:)). <<less

tr*sh novel. The totem is another name to martial spirit. Plot is tr*sh. I only need to read 20 chapter to know it will be your generic everybody's trying to kill MC for the sake of plot and young master forcing the MC sister and cousin because they are a beautiful women. This is your generic copy and paste xianxia. Don't bother reading it if you already read any xianxia novel.

I am currently reviewing after binging the first available 30 chapters (4/16/19). Keep in mind that the novel only has a few chapters so a more comprehensive review is not possible. However, at this point, I believe that this story has a lot of potential.

Pros:

- Likeable main character (s). The MC has commendable traits. He's loyal, rational, and relatively intelligent. Moreover, any changes or additions to his traits, though not always the most compelling, are at least understandable and within reason. Willpower, for example, which is incredibly important to the... more>> success of a main character, does not completely out of nowhere arises from his upbringing as well as training is specific techniques. He's reasonable most of the time, but when he does act rash, it's easily accepted as either coming from one of his commendable traits like loyalty or due to specific effects of his cultivation. Overall, he has a strong personal character without being overplayed by the story.

- The flow of events feel natural, and even surprise events seem elicit speculation on their cause like a mystery rather than seeming completely illogical. Any events seem foreshadowed in some way, so it's not completely a surprise when it happens. Minor spoiler example:
Spoiler

We learn early on of the MC's father's supposed failure or act of treason. It's expected that some punishment is in order, but it's initially confusing why the family wasn't being punished immediately. However, a representative of the emperor who also happens to have a grudge with their family arrives to "investigate" and mere out punishment. It's a logical outcome of a family being censured while adding pressure of personal conflict.

[collapse]

- The story forces the MC to go through struggle. Of course, there's something that makes the MC special that helps him force himself through certain situations, but that is limited. Currently he is too weak, and there some things that can't be solved with force even if he wanted to.
Spoiler

He's effectively up against the emperor, making any of his actions limited.

[collapse]
Since he does not have it easy and can't deus ex machina his way out of every situation, it makes it more interesting to see how he navigates the situation.

- Good worldbuilding, especially of the cultivation system. It has a unique aspect to it makes it slightly more interesting than a basic accumulation of power, though that still is a big part of it. Of course, the world building is yet to be comprehensive. More could be done as long as the cultivation of explanations don't detract from the flow of a chapter, which has been balanced well so far in my opinion.

- Relatively fast update speed. Currently at 5/week with the chance of extra chapters.

Cons:

- Enemies are transparently evil and unabashedly disgusting. So far, there have been no respectable enemies. At the very least though, the enemies are not completely s*upid and actually have layers of plans to obstruct the MC and further their agenda.

- Very few characters are developed or even have much detail about their personalities. Of course, there's also the fact that there aren't too many chapters, so hopefully characters will be fleshed our a bit more as the story progresses.

- The importance of women in the story are still ultimately tied, whether directly or indirectly, to their beauty. Very flat characters.

- No romantic interest as of yet.

- Some silly translation/grammar/typo problems occasionally, but not too much to be a huge detriment on the reading experience.

I'm really excited about where the story is going! Perhaps this story is not a 5/5 stars for some, but it's definitely a solid 4/5 and a 3.5/5 at worst. I'm excited to see how the overarching conflict and mystery plays out, and I'm always up for an academy setting, which seems to be a strong possibility in the future. <<less

Wow, all you need to do is look at the description to see the idiocy:

Dragon, identical to nine animals in form.

The head is similar with that of a camel (1), the horn is similar with that of a deer (2), the ear with that of an ox (3), the neck with that of a snake (4), the belly that of a serpent (still 4), the scale that of a fish (5), the claw with that of an eagle (6), and the paw with that of a tiger (7).

Snakes and serpents... more>> are the same thing. Even if you say that snakes and serpents are two different animals with some fantasy BS excuse, that still leaves you with eight creatures. Where's the ninth?

If the description cannot follow basic math or animal identification, I have no hope for the novel itself.

Edit:

Looks like the description was changed after I made note of it, but it STILL took someone writing a review pointing out the obvious before it was.

Not to mention, using "sea serpent" (aka sea dragon) to describe any part of a dragon feels like cheap cop-out. It's like using a leopard to describe a jaguar or vice versa. <<less

It’s hard to judge with just a few chapters. However, I like this novel so far. The main selling point for me is that the translation is very good such that I don’t struggle with deciphering it, which I do in some translated works. Kudos to the translator for the goood work. I’m reserving my judgement on the story content since it is just starting. However, even if it may turn out to be a generic xianxia for some, to a xianxia enthusiast it may turn out to be a... more>> gem. <<less

This is my first review on this site, and probably my first on a book, so you guys might think that my review has no worth (I said MIGHT think, not that you guys actually think like that). But I have read plenty of xianxia novels, so I know my stuff here people. Now, on to the main business.

The novels beginning is kind of generic, but it actually has the potential to be a good story. So I think you guys should have more patients with the novel and you... more>> may really enjoy it. <<less
