Notes:
Ch. 36: Was a nice idea honestly, but it's getting plenty annoying and having zero progression. Tbh, I'll say it now, the MC is like a pathetic doormat to me, Idc. I don't totally understand the story behind the ML and why he won't reveal he knows MC and everything MC's done, nor do I know why ML knows at all, but I am losing the will to care to find out honestly. They're just dancing around each other doing s*upid things, and like someone pointed out, it doesn't seem to have a fleshed out plot? Why does MC show up in this world? Why does he go back to his original world? Why does he treat the new world as real, only when it concerns the ML? The new world just doesn't seem fleshed out or well-executed to me and it's not really engaging. I don't want to continue to read this nonsense of them dancing around each other for how many more chapters while ignoring the bigger plot of being SURROUNDED BY ZOMBIES, with no real reason for why ML went rogue in the first place. This is clearly more romance-focused with no romance predicted to happen anywhere in the near future. Which means I'm reading a whole pile of nothing going nowhere. If someone can give me an estimate of when they start to date and actually resolve the fact that ML knows everything, and it's not a chapter too far in, I might decide to continue. Otherwise, it's a nope for me. Not wasting time on something I can't see going somewhere good in the foreseeable future. Next. Strong start, possible weak end. UP: Re-reading my notes, not the novel, but no one's going to clarify which chapter that is and I already know I'm not going to restart this, so don't act like it isn't dropped.

Notes:
Ch. 63: The only impression I have is that I want to slap this monster, *cough*, I meant, the MC/author or both every time they talk about girls. He sounds like a lech/pe*ophile and regards women as meat, just sexually harassing, comparing, taking advantage of and being sleazy as he pleases. How many oh-so-amazing women would actually want only you when you act so obviously like an insatiable s*xual predator? So unrealistic, disgusting and unappealing. I bet it's the main reasons this has such a low rating; the s*upid amount of paragraphs of s*upid, lustful, superficial descriptions of women is ridiculous. "Don't call me brother-in-law" was the most horrible, disloyal, demeaning thing to say. How can a brother really be okay after hearing his sister being spoken about like she's nothing? It was the last straw before I had to make this rant. I hear this has r*pe and even younger girls than where I'm at. Ahahahah. There's also a threesome tag. The hell. I hope he dies at some point. The only way this author can redeem himself at this point. Strong start, possible weak finish.
Ch. 91: Has this author ever experienced love and romance before? How can his MC be so vulgar? I hate him, yet I'm still reading because outside of girls, the plot is fun so far.
Ch. 134: If this is wish fulfillment and this is supposed to be the author's/some readers desires, then it is truly sad and pathetic. Has this author even met a girl before? This s*upid chauvinism and disgusting, disreputable way he treats and talks about girls is horrendous, makes me livid and want to throw up. A complete idiot and girls without substance but apparently being annoying, in awe of this idiot and wildly gorgeous are all they really have going for them. Yet his purpose is to treat them nicely. The hell. The rest of characters are simply idiotic cannon fodder to make him look good and people to gape like fishes with twinkles in their eyes out of awe and admiration, after yelling at him that he was an idiot way over his head. There was a review that I liked that was pretty apt in describing all these little idiocies. Actually, the more reviews I read, the more I'm sure I'll grow to really hate this and want to sue. The people who like this and defend it are questionable. I like a good revenge and pummel story though, so I'm sticking through for now. UP: Yeah, it's been years. So no, I'm not sticking through with anything, clearly. Be real. I ain't picking this up ever again. Funny past me actually thought I would put up with this debased, disrespectful nonsense, when years later, I don't remember much, but how mad I was at this novel. My fury is the only memory attached to the name of this novel, haha.

Ch. 15: I liked it at first seeing as it was career-oriented, but it really didn't take long for me to realise this MC guy is just a big-headed idiot. This is def going to be an unbalanced relationship and I honestly don't like the ML. I would like to see in the past months, in all the books I've been reading, if I have EVER liked an ML at all. I don't think I have and it is getting beyond absurd. I HATE them all. Can't authors create decent people? I can tell this ML is going to be the type to bully the MC, this bullying will be unveiled as helping and showing affection or whatever, and the MC will somehow fall. It's nonsense. I would hate a guy who works hard to make me mad. Do you have nothing better to do with your life than to wait until I blow my top, pick up a bottle and smash your head in? Is that the result you're looking for because that's the only result I can see coming from it. These authors' heads are wonky. Please meet real people. I feel like either the majority of people who read BL are all blind and don't think much or there's something wrong with me - maybe I'm immature, oversensitive or have too much pride or something, for thinking these unbalanced relationships and bullying could never lead to love and these stories are forced and senseless. Maybe it's just me, Idk. Strong start, DNF.

Ch. 10: Everyone loves this except me, I guess? I don't like being mean, but if anyone is a waste of space or a waste of life, I would say it's this MC. You lived sooooo many years, and you still are completely bullied and careless like an actual idiotic child. It honestly makes no sense. Then, you'd live so long but you'd get nervous on seeing a person who you considered killing and getting revenge on? I don't understand how MC completely regressed as if he were an actual child. It's not funny. It's pathetic and nonsensical considering how long he's lived. Someone, kill him off and get on with the story. He's not worth reading about. Could've been good but the MC has zero skills and braincells, so screw him. I hate tr*shy idiots, and authors who force scenarios that don't make sense given the characters. Strong start, DNF.

Notes:
Ch. 17: This was good until I started hating Xu. How can you break character like that when you set rules not to break character. It was so horrible what he was doing in someone else's body without permission and not even caring what the other would think about him changing his image. An insensitive moron I don't care about and I just wish Shao would have his body back from this disrespectful idiot. I remember hating Shao for his inhumane coldness and lifeless obedience to rules, but still, that's how the guy wanted to live and be presented. Ruining that was not your choice and was insanely horrible to do. Lie after lie after s*upid lie, making this worse and worse. I can't endure this level of s*upidity. It was fine before but it's not funny anymore. He crossed a line. His whole personality and irresponsibility just made this story tr*sh. I have a premonition it's all downhill from here because of this s*upid personality. How did he cause you trouble? Didn't you cause him just as much, if not more trouble? Screw you, immature garbage. I also stopped reading the comic. Strong start, DNF.

Notes:
Ch. 89: This is honestly awesome. As good or in some ways better than Earth is Online. However, these 80M challengers, are they all Chinese? These clues are all Chinese character related, or are related to Chinese language, Chinese names or Chinese culture that no one else across the world would understand. The Card WORLD is only for Chinese people? I hope they'll clarify that, because it makes no sense that an entire after WORLD is just dedicated to the Chinese, but the clues would only be suitable if there are only Chinese people there. Further, the writing style is extremely repetitive that I get annoyed. Idk if it's the translation or the writing style of the author, but the expressions and descriptors are really overused. Shortcomings that might make it worse than the Earth is Online in the long run. Strong start, possible strong end. Possible fave.
Ch. 234: It's still good, but honestly a bit disappointing. It's out here again with the author forcing a second BL CP into it. Since they want a second CP, they're making the second top as some kinda powerhouse for no real reason to make him deserve the shine as the second ML or something. If no one else grows more of a presence, with more strength and assertiveness, I call bull. If everyone remains background to glorify, sing endless praises and make these 4 BL characters look good, then this goes down the drain, more than it's been already leaking. It's like she got bored of the first CP or wanted to cram more BL cause she thinks that would be liked. It's def not as well-rounded or good as Earth is Online like I thought. It's okay, but the author needs to fix up. This fujo mentality irritates me to no end. There are still unexplained plotholes but I'll give the benefit of the doubt for now. UP: I clearly didn't give any benefit of the doubt and outright dropped it since. Don't see myself picking it back up, so bye.

Notes:
Ch. 65.2
Ch. 20: Strong start, possible strong end. I like that this is simple and not too heavy and the plot is quite a bit different from the usual tropes. She's a delight in her own way, although sometimes when she holds back her tongue in favour of her image, I do get impatient. Anyway, it's cute, curious but doesn't have that strong a taste. That father is truly completely useless and Idk what to feel about the fiance guy, maybe he's the same. Anyway, I live for Chonghang. May he be blessed forever and ever and showered with nothing but happiness for my boy.
Ch. 40: It was going so well, until the common trope of reverting to an idiot started. Is it supposed to be a charming point that they have so many IQ points to scheming but when it comes to finding out if someone around them is in love, not a single IQ point responds and they remain naive? If so, they should know naive idiots aren't charming; they're frustrating and it makes no sense not being able to see something clear as day under the excuse that you haven't experienced love before. It's really an over-the-top trying to prove the innocence and purity in romance nonsense that is intolerable. Idk why they can never maintain the smartness; authors' preferences sure are weird. Not understanding jealousy, the most vivid and ugly emotion is even more utter nonsense.
Ch. 65.2: Sometimes you think she's aware but then she plays dumb. I want to hope she's acting or avoiding it, but my goodness, I think she's actually oblivious to herself and him. It's tiring and is driving me insane. I honestly think she's no where near as smart as I initially thought; how can you think you can read the Prince's expression when having a pokerface is his job or not see he's acting weirdly so there's definitely a reason? No one said the maid needed to be a intellectual, but it's a let down to know the MC isn't actually quick-witted. As for her period, she went through it before for so many years, so I'm really unsure how one can be so slow-witted, she couldn't tell. Furthermore, I understand her point of wanting to save everyone she cares about, but intervening in someone's love life is what a nosy toxic parent does. It's not her place or her right and doesn't count as saving anyone, but rather I can only see it causing more sadness and she's taking away other people's free will and conscious decisions, regardless of whether they think they're happier with the way things were. That's heartless and selfish. Making a decision in terms of love for both her friends when she clearly knows nothing about it and her own love life is a mess, is hypocritical and idiotic. Strong start, DNF.

Notes:
Ch. 52: I can't read this anymore. The MC suffers and suffers and suffers and suffers more at the hands of this no-good ML. He's so horrible, tactless and s*upid. He treats her like a plaything, doesn't care for consent, ripped her innocence from her without caring if it was important to her, uses her for his own gratification while hurting her and not making her feel good, treats her life as meaningless, he continuously r*pes her, and the one thing she asks for, he forgets and does the opposite, giving her a death sentence. He never tries to understand her or be considerate. He's foul. I feel suffocated and stuffed full of pain for her. Why couldn't he ask her what she wanted? Why can't she complain? She has no standing. Use your brain!!! How would she survive by herself for you to screw, idiot scum??? It's just a matter of her choosing which way to die now, and if I were her, I'd ask Eunuch Fu to do it than die in the hands of those den of wolves. All her plans and dreams were ripped, torn apart and destroyed by the ML single-handedly. He scars her emotionally, psychologically, physically, in every way possible, this is just abuse. I've cried way too much, and I'm suffering to read this. He's the single worst ML I'd ever met and all these Chinese novels have horrible ML's so that's saying something. I can't bear to read this anymore. Strong start, DNF.

Notes:
Ch. 42: This is bloody sickening. It was pretty good at first, but this system is beyond disgusting and vile. Literally no one would have grounds to think the MC liked the ML, which he DOESN'T, if the system didn't MANIPULATE the MC's body to call him 'darling' like a brainless piece of crap, and then use his body AGAIN, to sexually harass the ML. Both times, the system did not apologise and did not think it did anything wrong. Putrid and nasty. It needs to get tossed. It's absolutely gross that it basically sexually harassed them both, tricked the ML into thinking the MC likes him, made the ML like the MC which would be awkward for him and only does this under some kind of fujo premise. I would kill it if I could. How can you play with people like toys, invade their privacy, just to fulfill the nasty sick fantasies and nonsense in your head? Honestly, this thing needs to die, otherwise I'd be unreconciled. This is disturbing and the fact no readers brought it up, means they think it's okay and may have problems too. This system is demented. I don't want to continue reading about the system. It was a pretty okay story without it. Forcing BL, these authors and beyond help, s*upid and I cannot bear to read this bad, forced literature. Sexualising, fetishising harassing fujos need to disappear. It's a sickness.

Ch. 12: Well, the story is really hair-raising and very good so far. Only thing is I HATE Lian what's his name very much. He grosses me out and if that's the ML, no thanks, please. MC is also pretty dense. Like someone doesn't know you but you yell out their name?!?! You also make it obvious you know where things are and what they do?!?!?! It's like you're not an adult that's experienced life and the workplace where you have to adapt, deceive and manipulate and USE YOUR BRAIN to get anywhere. Literally wearing your heart on your sleeve and making your hatred and suspicion for people known, are you 5??? Strong start, possible weak end.
Ch. 38: I swear, other than being a dimwit without a lick of athletic ability, MC's name should change to 'always falling'. This is like the millionth time he fell and was caught by the ML. What, you can't look where you step even in a non-perilous situation? You would think you might be able to learn. Might as well cut off your legs. They useless. Man, it's annoying and overused.
Ch. 50: Well, I'm going to stop here. The characters and romance are pretty nauseating. It's a nope from me. The main plot was great, so it's a pity everything else is a mess. Not me and this.

Notes:
Ch. 90: Strong start, possible strong end. The MC being given a pharmacy that has practically everything, that a pharmacy wouldn't really have is way too unrealistic, i.e. eggs and snickers [edit: ramen and dumpling filling??]. She is smart and I like smart people. Her father be the worst though - bad prime minister (his smarts for naught then), horrible father (does he even have a heart; all he knows is reputation), unreliable husband (once they have children, they're not that great for s*x or anything else apparently) and only his d*ck works right (apparently, cause he be overly thinking about that servant after the deed, my goodness). Re-reading this after the manga because some details seem to be different or I remember them differently, so looking forward to the continuation.
Ch. 116: Many reviews are against the MC, but imo, that's just being self-righteous and hypocritical in itself. If you were constantly being attacked with assassination attempts and all sorts of vile schemes were befalling you and your family, retaining a steady moral compass, not getting twisted like some saint and always carrying a semblance of a goody-two shoes is ridiculous. Getting warped just like the villains that attack you out of self-defense seems more human to me. Being a doctor does not mean being a brave, saintly, all-benevolent, sparkling angel of a hero and saving everyone in your path. It also does not mean you won't hurt anyone. Her responsibility, job and desire is to survive and get revenge, i.e. to carry out a job well, emotions and moral principles cannot always be met, so even if it hurt her to help with abortions (many doctors do this anyway), if she had the big picture in mind with long-term goals set and had to carry out her job of surviving stably and dismantling the Feng family, then the abortion was what she had to do. Idk why everyone is so against evil, villainous MC's but always reading villain MC's who turn out to be just misunderstood saints. So absurd. It may hurt a bit, but I like a good slightly twisted MC. Being a shining goddess that reflects away all negativity is too improbable, so I find the one's with degrading morals surrounding by such awful people, is highly realistic. That's just me though. I can't remember all that much from the manga, but the novel so far leaves the impression that it has more details, makes more sense and is better than the manga.
Ch. 221: Plot is too heavy rn with a bunch of morons, so I'm taking a break here. I think I reached a little further than here in the manga, and I was excited to get past it and see what happens next, but I'm less inclined now. In any case, everyone becoming a mini MC is quite s*upid, improbable and lame. I kind of hope the seventh prince remains single. I've read the comments and spoilers and have been completely disheartened. Generally, those who have read the first 300 chapters are contented with the story. Those who have read further or completed it call it a disappointment for multiple reasons. The most impactful one I read was that she was discovered as a transmigrator? How s*upid is that? Devolving characters are my least favourite and are most disappointing. That's just as s*upid as IPW, where the MC just goes around spouting out all her secrets like nothing. I really don't want to read as the comments are consistent that it will be rubbish. Seeing that I am within the 300 bracket and I'm already wanting to take breaks, I find it unlikely I'll make time to continue this story. We'll see. UP: Never happened.

Notes:
Ch. 37: It was so good, realistic and direct. I really loved the chemistry and personalities and interaction. This is how a relationship realistically develops rather than taking ages to figure it out and then ages wondering whether to make a move. But I really hate that the ML lied to the MC about the girl that likes the MC. It seems like a toxic possessive trait to lie and not let the MC make decisions for himself and gloat at the results of your lie. I really wanted to love this but I couldn't overlook how this made me feel really uncomfortable and disappointed. I was waiting for the lie to be unveiled, for there to be a fight, healthy communication and some kind of change but ML didn't confess the lie and the girl didn't confess to the MC either, so the MC is still ignorant of everything. The change of medicine without proper medical knowledge and diagnosis, freaked me out. I was waiting for some heavy repercussions from that. That's not something you can mess with!!! Not really motivated to continue. Shame, it had been so cute and fun. Laterss. Strong start, possible strong end. UP: Unmotivated for years, will never continue.

Ch. 12: Incredibly lame. Wow. The fact that MC couldn't put 2 braincells to guess ML JUST MIGHT BE Roux is amazing to me, because there were 10,000 glaring clues that would be particularly noticeable in the MC's eyes specifically because of the knowledge he has. The author making Roux appear and conveniently fooling MC that ML was in the bathroom the whole time, was beyond s*upid. You know ML is 38, really strong and sensitive to danger and would be the first to react to Roux's presence, you also know ML was the only who paralysed the pirate which was confirmed as the SAME MO and trick that Roux uses, but you believe he didn't HEAR A THING???? MC was just about to check but at the same time, COINCIDENTALLY, something happened to distract him. Rme. That's so s*upid. That could never happen. If MC were smart, or acting like himself, he'd check first and then look at the distraction. Author is making MC s*upid for their own benefit and my allergy is acting up. Particularly s*upid writing.

Notes:
Ch. 99: Well, it's entertaining, funny, emotional and interesting so far. I don't have much in the way of complaints, other than my disappointment that the MC regressed and is teased and put down a bit. It kind of gives the impression of an unbalanced relationship even though I know how much they do for each other. It seems one side is unfeeling, h**ny and magically skilled even without experience, and the other is too embarrassingly and desperately clingy, inexperienced, dependent, needy, childish, s*upid and emotional. Sigh. Why do all CP's eventually regress to this dynamic? SN: Why Old Qiao has a superiority complex over being only the 2nd s*upidest person on the team, I have yet to figure out. This poor guy. Strong start, possible strong end. Possible fave.
Ch. 103: Not a fave. Tore open cond*ms with 'practiced ease'? Did ML have s*x before? If not, then how? Sometimes, the ML is so cold, callous and mean to the MC, that I can't possibly see it as teasing nor can I like him at all. He treats the MC like a s*upid child he can toy around with and patronise cause he's superior. I'm still confused where ML's s*xual skill and prowess comes from, given he has NO experience. It's so s*upid. This author s clearly writing whatever crap their brain farts out. Their relationship is very weirdly unbalanced and annoying. It's quickly becoming tr*sh. He touts crap and lies that makes people be mean to MC when he knows the MC can't tell the truth and he makes the MC the spotlight for embarrassment and humiliation like he couldn't care less and is aloof in the relationship. If you're so aloof, get out of the relationship entirely. I hate his face. I would slap the skin straight off. I cannot stand him for making people treat the MC like that.
Ch. 104: Not even close to a fave. tr*shed. He literally pretends to listen to the MC, does what he wants anyway and lets the MC deal with the pressure, bashing and consequences, which is effectively forcing MC's hand in doing what ML wants instead. ML is scum. He disgusts me and I'd be happy if he disappeared entirely. Authors really know how to take a good start, a good idea and then make it absolute rubbish. May the ML die in agony. Amen. May the ML die in agony. Amen. May the ML die in agony. Amen. Strong start, DNF.

Ch. 12: Well, it's good, but I'm mad and depressed that MC just got rid of the first ghost, and the actor that caused the ghost's death didn't face ANY consequences whatsoever and the MC didn't care. Also, in this one, the ML is the idiot. How can it not be clear that the MC can handle ghosts himself??? Even after Pei Yu dropped so many obvious hints to the point of telling ML directly, your brain is that useless???? It's annoying. Why did Pei Yu just leave the set without explaining to the director and actors? Do they not care for the people's fear or what? Strong start, possible weak end.

It's just as annoying, but I'm still reading cause at least the ML is cute (I want to hug little ML so bad) with his constant blushing (that the MC never sees or understands) so wwgd? It's decent but I tend to want to skip the parts that talks about Ghosts Know, which in my eyes are the most useless and boring parts of the novel. I don't get why you'd name the novel about the worst part the novel has to offer.
Ch. 30.3: Hmmm, well, MC's brainlessness was really getting too much for me so I about to drop it anyway, but then I got to see MC and his best friend's naivete. They actually thought that the college friends were good people, wouldn't gossip and wouldn't say the most abhorrent and disgusting things that came up in their imagination cause they're bored. I also watched the MC listen to all that and not say or do a thing, not tell his best friend either. I get this is realistic, but I already hate the MC's lack of any IQ or EQ or empathy, so I'm not tolerating reading this. I don't get why anyone would. In my eyes, it's really bad. All people in the comments can talk about is the fluff this, the fluff that, but this novel deals with a lot of heavy issues and it does not deal with it well at all or completely overlooks it. That's a telltale sign of bad in my book so. I don't know what to say about the dozens of readers who haven't even discussed these hard to miss issues, but oh well. Our brains just work different, I guess. No offence. Bye.

Notes:
Ch. 116: First of all, AHAHAHAAHAHAHAH PAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHA. OMFP, THIIS IS HILARIOUS. Second of all, I don't know when, but I started crying a long chapter ago, and I haven't stopped since. Third of all, this is insanely good. I haven't put it down at all. Admittedly, in between the comedy, the tragedy, the good storytelling, the chemistry, there will be times to annoy the hell out of you. The MC, omfp, sometimes I wanna take a plank, smash it against his head and see if his brain will start back working. He says he's changed and won't regard himself as an outsider, or will take their lives seriously, so wouldn't that imply you stop uttering things like 'magic plot', 'wrong script' and 'ML'? You're supposed to be treating it like life and them like living breathing people but he still treats the ML as a book character, which is screwed up, dehumanising, cruel, heartless, infuriating, s*upid and annoying. I also cannot believe he prioritised his voice fruit over his and ML's LIFE and made the ML get severely hurt and doesn't even know it's HIS fault. I find it hard to understand how a person could possibly be this s*upid and tactless but okay. MC hurts the ML continuously and that's not funny. So a lot of mixed feeling with this one. Strong start, possible strong finish.
Ch. 120: I'm stopping this. I swear, people who can't even speak are more effectively communicative than these two clowns. I know it's a happy ending, but I personally don't believe the MC deserves happiness, especially with the ML, after everything he's put the ML through and the way he's treating the ML like he was sending a dog off to breed with any female around. It is beyond disgusting now. I'm surprised to see that there's a person who stopped at this chapter exactly, with the same issues as me, so I'm glad to know I'm not alone, knowing the author has overdone it and it has gone to crap. Strong start, DNF.

Notes:
Ch. 205: This was entertaining enough, but the more I read, the more I hate the ML. Is he the master, or is everyone else his master? His servants act however they want and he does NOTHING. People in his family act however they want and he does NOTHING. The man obsessed with him and his master act however they want and he does NOTHING. It's like he's here for a free ride off the ML. ML lets all these people walk over the MC and doesn't even react or punish anyone or do anything at all. He's completely unresponsive and doesn't even seem partially real. His character ruins this whole story. Gonna stop right here, cause I just read the spoilers and apparently, the ML will definitely be HATED by me even more FOR HIS ABSOLUTE USELESSNESS and I'll cry. I get because of his cultivation, his emotions aren't quite there, but that is literally no excuse for being a walking piece of wood with no common sense. The spoilers don't sound good at all, so I'll leave here and try not to cry and will never read again. Bye. Strong start, DNF.

Ch. 36.2: Annoying; annoying, s*upid characters and plot. Had high hopes at the beginning. Strong start; possible disappointing end. UP: I don't even remember what this is about (and I'm not a lover of straight romance anyway; wlw recs, where are you), so I'll drop with a peace of mind.

Ch. 45: MC is an idiot, ML is an idiot with hateful friends, family and business associates that he did not break off ties with. I would have long broken up with the ML cause I have sense. All these side CP's are heavily annoying. This is not fun to read at all. Strong start, DNF.

Notes:
Impression: Strong start (from comic), possible strong end. Nice characters and plot seems okay so far. This gender-bender isn't annoying so that's already promising and that aspect is pretty fun so far. Looking to see where it goes.
Ch. 208: This author and writing style is a bit off for me. The jokes are not funny, horrible and vulgar. Idk why people would say things like that or even think of things like that. Further, the emotions and actions of the characters are off, unnatural and feel off-putting. Her friends act really entitled and downplay how much she goes through honestly. The MC's naivete, s*upidity and 'benevolence' are so weird and unnatural. The same for the other girl and her glares, benevolence and gratitude start to make less sense and feel forced and unnatural.
Ch. 360: At this point, it's feeling like a worse version of GDB. The characters are becoming dependent leeches because they know she will get them stronger than they would on their own with their natural talent and their personalities . . . sigh. The names are constantly mixed up, what characters are supposed to be doing or where they are supposed to be are mixed up or forgotten, which makes it poorly executed and confusing. The ranks are always confusing because it is not often tracked and I think the author forgets characters' ranks and progression too and is just making up ranks as it goes. I feel the MC has regressed in rank since she last leveled up or the author just made another name mix-up. They've also mixed up skills i.e. saying MC is an armament master. Sigh. Either way, it's hella confusing. In other books, the other MC's doing good things for their friends and families make sense. In this one, the benevolence makes no sense and just feels like she's a parent or babysitter. Why would you share all your secrets like that???? It makes no sense. I feel like that can cause dependency, entitlement, jealousy, people looking down on MC's talent and hard work and saying you just have good luck, and also that eventually secrets will spill and cause a dangerous situation. Her friends and family are always envious of her more than anyone else and thinks she's just really lucky but they wouldn't be able to endure half of what she goes through to attain what she has and won't even acknowledge they wouldn't be where they were if it wasn't for her in the first place. They are scummy. They laugh at her when she's suffering but get jealous when they see the result. Wth is that. I mean she did all that from a cripple to being higher in a few years, and has endured a lot to reach where she is but they are all envious like they could do it np if they trained in the same conditions!!! Now, she uses her cheats and unveils her secrets like nothing because she doesn't use her intellect and her own strength to solve problems anymore. I can't say I like this as much as I did previously. It's honestly a bit bland.
Ch. 366: These friends of hers are so arrogant. She is the young master of the valley, but they are not people of the valley nor are they related to Old Man Devil; it's just the MC and they are sponging opportunities, but they haven't even been accepted. Let's be real. Their talent isn't anything exceptional, esp without help and opportunities from the MC. The hell is this really. They are not impressive. I can't understand what this author and MC is trying to do with these out of hand, in over their heads side characters. I like Sima You Lin though. He's an upright, intelligent man who knows respect and gratitude.
Ch. 395: This is great! She's becoming even more of an idiot. Did she have to show everyone in the group the pagoda?? Nope. She could've handled that so much better, but again, we see sole reliance on her cheats rather than intelligence. She didn't have to kill that lady and she most definitely didn't have to show that guy her pagoda either. Now he is determined to be her friend solely to reap the benefits. Yay, another leech! I wonder if this author knows the difference between babysitting and friendship, cause nothing in this novel is it. I feel no friendship or the camaraderie this author trying to tell me is there. I just see idiotic trusting and telling all secrets like it doesn't matter to any and everyone. Since this is similar, let's draw comparison to GDB or GFN, where you feel friendship and closeness because they don't rely on the MC to increase their strength in any way although they could and they don't covet or get jealous but just admire and congratulate each other for successes. They work together and build each other up without this spoon-feeding and leeching going on here. That's not friendship. That's greed and a total one-way street benevolence. Author's idea of friendship is off-putting. In that case, without strength and bringing them benefits, MC ain't worth being life-long friends with at all. The more I read, the more unsettling it gets. I feel no closeness or intimacy in these relations at all, just entitlement, greed and envy. It's really disheartening. All characters are simply devolving as this goes on.
Ch. 480: My goodness, this MC's mouth is a faucet. Just because they're curious, you have to tell them? Whatever, yes.

Notes:
Ch. 04: Okay, so this is cute and funny and s*upid and lovely, and the second hand embarrassment is unreal and I love it. It's truly funny, and so lowkey in shade, I can't count the number of times I've giggled in the last four chapters. I have decided I live for these fictional celebrities loving their own fanfics. It is so adorable and fluff. The writing style and everything. Strong start, possible strong end.
Ch. 23: That Gu guy is really the worst. Pretending to be there for him and a good friend when you actually look down on him the most out of everyone. Honestly, that stung. Kept man, my foot. You're disgusting and awful and someone should kick you where it hurts, jerk.
Ch. 28: Gu's a nice guy and all, and so ridiculous, he's funny, but I still can't get over the fact that he so quickly believed in such vile rumours just because he thought it was unrealistic for Wei to be in the entertainment circle this long since his acting skills are that bad. It's really hypocritical. At least anti-fans are honest and tell you what they really think, no matter how bad it is. I'm still really angry. If Wei doesn't get angry when he finds out, I'll be even more livid.
Ch. 29: I laughed wayyy too much during the gaming insult barrage. That was hilarious.
Ch. 30: I think this truly. Ch. 29 is prob the last funny chap. I'm too angry, sad and bitter at this point on behalf of the MC. The ML is heartless and gross. I hate him now. He needs a good slap and I want the MC to find out soon what the ML really thinks of him. End his life. The fact that NO ONE ELSE feels angry or remotely bothered by his way of thinking and looking down on the MC makes me livid, and sours the whole story for me. MC deserves better. Disgusting.
Ch. 31: I HATE Gu so much, he made me cry. He seriously doesn't deserve the MC. I'm not reading this anymore. It's not funny; it's traumatising. I SERIOUSLY SERIOUSLY SERIOUSLY HATE this guy so much. Scum louse. Strong start, DNF.
