My top 15 masterpieces v1

My top 15 masterpieces v1
10-15 series I've read that's good. The list is highly influenced by user Ynag but his list is kinda long so I wanna keep it nice and short. I'll only add stuff that I've finished or am still keeping up with. 

Also, I'll only add web novels that haven't been made into light novels (so no bangers like 86, which might make a separate list for light novels) but what that means is that most of these novels are gonna end up being Chinese or Korean. 

For most of these series, I've either paid money to read ahead or read MTL (which is atrocious but my addiction needs to be satiated somehow).
I'll try to keep a good mix of genres. Also, the list is subject to change cause my likes and dislikes will change over time. 

P.S. I just realized afterward but apparently I'm a sucker for romance and romantic subplots.

P.S.S. Some of these novels are gonna end up "dropped" but instead of removing them, I will move them to the bottom of the list, put XXXXXXXXXXXX in the description and give the reason for why I dropped it from the list

Ah yes, gender-bent Sherlock Holmes in a magical alternate universe.  Every girl here is a yandere (and they are adorable); it's just entertaining to watch how the MC tries to clean up his mess.... more>>

Genderbender, BL, and GL gives me the ick. However, just like how I believe my favorite PB&J is the only exception to sweet and salty foods being bad, this short read is one of my favorites despite my prejudices regarding those genres. ... more>>

Face-slapping turned political intrigue is the best way I can describe this series. There is an arc around 400-800 chapters-ish where the story kinda goes flaccid but it f*cks like a grampa on cocaine and vi*gra after that lull. ... more>>

The gold standard of all medieval kingdom building with modern bullshit. If you've read Webnovel's Tyranny of Steel, this bad boy right here is its forefather. Where Tyranny of Steel has a more theocentric undertone, Release that Witch has a more high-fantasy vibe where some of the nitty-gritty details of modern technology development are handwaved away using magic. ... more>>

OP MC hiding his power galore. Reading this gave me a very similar vibe to Eminence in the Shadow except that the MC is not delusional. I would say the floating island arc at around chapter 110 is the most badass out of all of the arcs but I would say read about 50 chapters to see if you like it or not. Some of the earlier arcs are a little slow but that's cuz MC takes a bit of time to get OP. Also, MC is not dense.... more>>

Typical Git Gud story you see in xianxia. It's kind of crazy how the MC's drive to become the strongest entity in Er Genverse is literally because of some girl he liked in the first few chapters and essentially never showed up again. ... more>>

This series is two stories in one, kinda like The Hunger Games. There's the academy arc, then there's the shit-hits-the-fan arc. I enjoyed both very much but some seem to not like the second arc because of its angsty nature that doesn't seem to follow the happy-go-lucky vibe of the first arc. I would argue that the painful second half only makes the first arc better and completes the story. This first half is mostly about the MC trying to hide his secrets and the second half is about it exploding and him trying to protect what is dear to him. ... more>>

Short and action-packed is how I would describe this story. It's basically a typical hero who grows up to beat the big bad while taking care of corruption on the side kind of story. Imagine the most stereotypical random isekai involving a demon lord and multiple summoned heroes, but everything is executed flawlessly. ... more>>
