The Grandmaster Strategist

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

This is an alternate history. Decades after the fall of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the world is still in chaos, although there is hope for reunification.

Of poor background, Jiang Zhe, styled Suiyun, has finally, after ten years of hard work, passed the imperial examinations and become a scholar within Hanlin Academy. Unwittingly, he becomes involved in the succession dispute of the Great Yong Dynasty. He faces conspiracies and machinations and countless battles of strength and wits. Intending to avoid court politics, he ultimately has no choice but to become involved. With no alternative, Jiang Zhe can only follow the crowd, joining the chaotic political turmoil. In this conniving world, he uses his intelligence and knowledge to provide for himself and his companions a stable environment to survive.

Watch nations fall, great men rise, and supreme martial artists kneel before the quiet whispers of a frail, unassuming scholar.

What an amazing translation by the translation team! Thank you for bringing us this novel.

Very long chapters and lots of poems.

There is very minimal romance with enticing storytelling.

Highly recommended!

Once I started reading the novel, I couldn't stop, and I proceeded to read the machine translated version of the novel to see how the story ends.

Overall, it was an interesting read, and it kept my attention throughout the story, so kudos to the author, and the translating team.

This is, what is it, the greatest novel that I read in last 3 years.

The way it write stories, the way they convey characters feeling, the timing of happening, and the realism of time flow. I don't know. Everything about this novel is perfect. The imperfection of protagonist make the story has a better nuance than most novel that always keep the happening happen immediately.

Too bad the novel has not finished, a little bit more.

Lol I felt like I was rereading I'm really a superstar with all the poems that they have in common. Especially the part where the poems aren't in actuality theirs but they were the ones that created it. Of course the difference is that IRAS knows he's cheating and its a totally different world. Only in the poems sense they are the same.

The story is interesting so far and I'm glad it's not 1000 or so chapters long, that way I won't have to wait too long before it's completely... more>> translated. It's a calming read with lots of political manuverings, so if you are looking for cultivation novel where the MC is op this might not be the book for you. But if you are looking for a novel where the MC relies on his wits and intelligence to get out of trouble, you'll enjoy this book. <<less

I love it! So great! Nice story development.

It's true that there are times that it's difficult to remember some characters specifically some characters who were introduced at some point, but only showed up after many chapters.

Also, I'm not good with poems, so I don't understand most of them.

Still, that did not stop me from liking this novel.

Absolutely great novel. Actually feels like a real novel for once, if that makes sense. The chapters are long and descriptive, and it's anything but another novel where the MC finds a special item, cultivates, and kills. Highly recommend this if you're looking for something akin to a normal novel rather than the same old web novel.

HOWEVER, it hasn't been updated in like 6 months. What's EXTREMELY aggrivating is that there are only like 40 or so chapters left in the entire book, yet no one has bothered picking up... more>> the translation. Again, it's probably due to how complex the novel is. It's a little more than "coughes up blood" / "doesn't know whether to laugh or cry" etc.

Really hope someone picks this up. <<less
