A list containing novels with zero harem[love triangles in some] and good stories to my preference. Not tags as there is no central themes. But... more>> I can promise you that there is no filler stuff in my recommendations.I will be updating the details and why you should read them often enough. And don't go with the way they are queued, as things may vary from person to person, just take them as a list.If you want to use MTL for novels... use comrademao.. its the closest with OG quality I have come across, they use some good software. <<less

Novels That I Read In Four Years and My Opinion!.

Here's a list of novels you might enjoy if you, like me, want to read some good stories that don't force an unnecessary & underdeveloped romance subplot where it isn't needed.... more>>

So these stories will have minimal to no romance, and I despise the harem trope in general. On the other hand, I'm a sucker for good bromance/brotherhood/friendship/found family stories. I also won't add any series to the list that I haven't personally read.

I decided to create this list because I've seen many similar 'no romance' lists on the site from which I've gotten many great recommendations to the point they have now become my go-to sources for new novels.

- - - - - - - - - - -

I'll be trying to organize the list based on how good I personally think the books are, but I'm only really certain about the first 4 being my favorites, the list then gets quite ambiguous, but I personally really like everything on the first page.

In the descriptions, I'll include how many chapters of the series I have read as well as how much romance there has been up until where I've read, as well as additional thoughts/opinions/warnings that I might have about the series.

I'll try to update the list whenever I find another good series to add. If you know of any series you think I'd like based on my list I'm more than open to suggestions! 

UPDATED JAN 1ST: Added 'The Nebula's Civilization' to the list. <<less

This list contains novels where the main character focuses on training his disciples or building a sect. 

This is my personal fav with Overpowered MC.

Support Character = Its either Ally/Friends of Protagonist that relevant to the original story.

Mentor = Protagonist Teacher/Tutor. <<less

What I think are pretty good novels to read.

Most of the finished novels are translated, generally it is more comfortable and fun to read this way. I feel sad when my entertainment like this is interrupted.... more>>

There are many more novels I have read that do not appear on this site, although I can only share 100 of them here. If my readings increase enough to fill another 100, I can make a second list, there will be no further additions for now. <<less

PS: Mount Tai

if you guys have anything to say, feel free to say it in the comments. This list is more inclined toward romance but it does have some books that are Action only or MC only and have no romance.

There is no order, almost all if not all books are pretty good to most people

this list does include BL but it's only like once or twice! <<less

In order of how great they are in my view. 

Status: 

Read - I have read it to completion

Up to latest chapters - always up to date with the latest chapters

Waiting for chapters - update frequency is slow, tend to stack up chapters to read

Unplanned Dropped - Dropped the novel with no future plan for it. May or may not continue reading

Temporarily Dropped - Dropped due to inconveniences, fully planned on reading again

[Order is relative to this list and not the subsequent lists]

The best novels <personal preference> available at novelupdates.

Wuxia: Martial arts, but nothing else, People practice martial arts. They are mortals and their goal is not to be immortal.
Xianxia: Wuxia + C-nese magic-based mainly on Daoism
Xuanhuan: eastern fantasy, Might have cultivation, but it's more fantasy than anything... more>>

My recommended Wuxia story [Which is QT but all the worlds are related to this genre]

[No CP] [Comprehensive Martial Arts] My life will stop  【无CP】[综武侠]吾命将休

[Comprehensive] Zhao Ru Sun and Moon_Little Fox Xili [End + Fan Wai]     [综]昭如日月_小狐昔里【完结+番外】

A favorite Korean manhua  -> Trinity Wonder

Jianghu/kangho: the most generalised answer is “The part of the world the imperial court doesn’t have direct jurisdiction over.” You are talking about brothels, gangs, bandits, slums, the underworld, rogue disciples from various sects and more. There's no order and rife with crime. It's like taobao, lol. Wulin/murim: refers to specifically and only to martial arts schools/sects/cults etc. The wulin is considered the refined, respected and virtuous people in society; they're also placed higher on the hierarchy. There's order. If jianghu is taobao, Wulin is Tmall.
