Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.After an explosion, You XiaoMo finds that he is now a probationary disciple of the TianXin sect. However, he is one with dubious potential, so just when he starts to adapt to his new circumstances, he receives a piece of bad news. If he is unable to produce the required result after half a year to become an official disciple of the TianXin sect, he would be driven out of the sect.
While You XiaoMo is going all out to make medicines and earn money, he runs into Ling Xiao. To his horror, he later discovers that Ling Xiao is actually someone cloaked in human skin.

Plot-wise, it is action-packed, funny and well-paced with plenty of annoying cannon fodders who met satisfying ends but it feels aimless. It was arc after arc after arc where the MC and Ling Xiao gets rid of the arc's villain simply out of convenience or because the villain was annoying then they get stronger and stronger - because well. Why not? Good things simply happen to them; the Mary sue halo in this novel is strong. Admittedly, towards the last arc, hints/loose ends from earlier chapters were finally being addressed (e.g. Lin Xiao's past) and they had a clear goal to get rid of the final boss, but it wasn't for any meaningful reason like saving the world or even taking revenge. It was because the final boss hate the two leads and would come looking for them anyway.
The MC is also somewhat of a wuss. Yes, he is relatable like having somewhat modern principles about not butchering people casually or running away when the enemy is obviously too strong but he is really pushing it. It gets annoyingly formulaic whenever he f*cks up, accidentally offends a cannon fodder or does something really silly, then basically waits around for Ling Xiao to save his ass. So not only is he a chicken, he is also dumb. The first time it happened, it's cute and entertaining but by the fifth time, you just want to smack him silly. Overtime, the MC does develop as a character and become more independent but IMO, he still relies on Ling Xiao mindlessly (one can argue that maybe he is suffering from stockholm syndrome).
-
- The world/realm they live in : there're differents ones -low to high- (not the heaven-human-ghost realms), differents characters and creatures (mages, practitioners, demon beasts) & all the cultivation related stuff is also great.
- The "school-competition" arcs where the MC really works hard and by himself to "level up" & learn about the world where he transmigrated in. I also enjoyed the interactions between him and the others students (friendships and rivalry). It felt really satisfying to see him beat some ass. That's also why I liked the "weak-to-strong" tag in this novel.
- We meet differents BL couples throughout the story (at least 2 more than the main pair). I like the fact that homosexuality is portrayed as something "random" in this world. Like, at some point the main couple flirts a lot in front of the other people and it's seems totally natural and cute.
- Globally, the plot is very easy to understand (it's kinda linear? Not complicated wars or political stuff, plot-twists, etc.).
- The subtle romance between the MC and the ML : what I mean is that they are into actions. For ex, the ML shows his love by protecting the MC during the fights (when he was still weak). Ofc, there's a lot of PDA, but you won't see them saying things like "omg ily, you're the only one, I would do everything for you" etc.
What I disliked :-
- Like a lot of readers, I can't stand the fact that the ML -constantly- lowers the IQ's MC. Really, it's not funny at all. Given the circumstances, I think that the MC has quickly adapted to this new world and codes. However, the ML who is sooooooo smart can't understand that :)))
- For me, the main character is not developed enough. He depends almost all the time of ML, doesn't take or few initiatives (what should we do noooow?x1000). I even have the impression that he has fear of taking some because of the ML (since he's always degrading his IQ). I enjoyed more the character "growth" when he was alone.
- As I said, I really like "weak-to-strong" stories. However, I was very frustrated reading this because the MC faces very few challenge. He succeeds almost everything and the first time, he's first in the competitions, etc. He had access to a lot of facilitators right from the start (the dimension, a strong husband who does everything for him).
- The side characters: no deepth! A bunch of them are useless to the plot and there're poor interactions between them or with the MC. We don't know a lot about their thoughts, their emotions... It's frustrating because some of them (the QiuTeam?!) are really interesting, but they're not exploited enough. They just appear.... & disapear from the story.
- Misogyny and how the women are portrayed : basically almost all the women in this novel are dumb-b*tchy-greedy-jealous-arrogant-superficial. I don't know if the author is also a woman but daaaaaamn, it's so degrading! Plus, there were a lot of sentences that pissed me off sooooo much (For ex: "I hope you get rapped".... Yes the MC said that. You XiaoMo... I totally agree with your husband ; you're a freaking idiot omg)
- The mystery surrounding the main characters (their origin, powers, etc.) were revealed too quickly and are.... Poorly exploited. For example,
Spoiler
[collapse]
-I waited for this moment so hard-, I wanted to see a damn reaction with Ling Xiao ! But no... it was like he said "I took a shit". There was no significant change in their relationship after that....
- Toooooo looooong! Okay the MC had to level up many times to become this strong but omggggg, some arcs were really repetitive ! (school-train-level up-enemy-move to another town/dimension-aunction-school & repeat)
(Sorry for my english hehe) TIP: read the fanfiction "everglow" which is -for me- the logical continuation of this story: a little baby for our main couple! Very well-written!when the MC told the ML about his transmigration
But I guess an author is confined to the limits of their own intellect...-
- Characters just randomly changing a lot (example - at first the MC is described as someone who doesn't care about food, but then later randomly becomes a glutton with binge eating tendencies.)
But it was funny, I guess.- beautiful woman who seduces others to get stronger or to get what they want
- manipulative girls who are pampered for being a "rare" female mage (because 'poor women', they just have a harder time being a warrior or mage.
You'll find this in the Tianxin sect arc. Actually, there was actually a girl, a decent human being with good strength, that (of course) was the MC's ex-ideal type, who had a crush on MC. There was a competition that all top mages participated in during the Daoxin academy competition arc. That's great and all, and the girl reached the top four in one of the rounds for mages, but the translation literally said just before she got out (even though she had an impressive record in that round),
"Time quietly passed to twenty-six minutes and forty seconds.
Qing Qiu was still a girl after all, the moment the clock hit forty-one seconds, she decided to give up. She had no better option to choose, since her face had gone ghastly pale and her knees had slightly bent down." - chapter 288
that genius teng? girl was irritating and despite her being so talented, her whole personality was being jealous and getting face-slapped.
there's a girl who's in an unrequited crush on the number one warrior dude in daoxin academy and basically is #10 on warrior rankings yet its implied that she's there since if a dude challenged her and won, he would be shamed for beating up a (pretty) woman.
Oh yeah, something to add. There's quite a few women in the book sprinkled here and there that basically have good looks, and coupled with the 'fact' that woman are a rarity in the world of the strong and powerful, are just generally pampered and simped upon by a bunch of guys while the girl's personality is just awful. I actually did somwhat (not like, but appreciate) this character called Fairy Fu Rong. She said something irritating, which was along the lines of 'you're a coward, I thought you were a man, be a man, etc.' which honestly ruined it all, but she's basically the leader of a female only sect that relies on f*cking (getting yang energy) from guys and cultivating it, and while many are scandalised and look down on her for that, she just accepts it and continues on with her seduction. However, going to the matter of seduction, it's still s*xual harassment if she advances onto a dude who doesn't want that, which she does to one of the elders of Daoxin, which did make me uncomfortable.
There is also a male sect equivalent that relies on the yin energy of women to cultivate, but I'd like to just note that only Fairy Fu Rong was obviously seductive and clearly a "loose woman" as our MC's dear master put it, while the male sect leader wears a mask and is muscly and basically doesn't really do anything but give a greeting speech at one point. And when the readers were being introduced to both sects via character dialogue between students of Daoxin academy, the women sect had paragraphs of scandalised reactions and rumours floating around on how each woman has at least slept with three (3) men while one person just casually mentioned the equivalent male sect before it was practically skimmed over and the conversation ended.
On yet another side note: A comeback you'll find the MC using when he's losing an argument against a woman or girl "we" don't like, you'll see him say something like
"Shifu, please calm down. We shouldn't waste our breath and energy on an old woman who's been ridden by many men. This will only make us seem uncultured. People who don't know any better may think us on good terms with her." - chapter 349
or
"...a gentleman doesn't fight petty women." - chapter 363. Full transparency though, the one he was saying this to was yet another horrible woman who called him ugly out of nowhere and can and did easily sacrifice her close elder martial brother and sister to die as her cover so she could escape safely. Yet, this was before the sacrifice and dude was just losing an argument so this is what he said. I just, again, sort of wish the comebacks didn't constantly bring gender into it. Being female or male shouldn't change any feelings or perspective on the situation.
like MC not liking (read: showing "disdain" - chapter 320 at) one of his demon beasts, the bird of pride, holding an orchid while wearing a romantic little hairpin and being a "ladyboy" - chapter 320
