There is an age-old legend that everyone knows. It is the story of some pathetic kid winning the lottery and rinse and repeat over 1000 times in 8000 chapters. Sound familiar? Cause that's pretty much every single wuxia novel in a nut. How tf they manage to extend the plot past 1000 chapters is beyond me but they make it work (sorta). But in the end, I'm just some lazy nerd that probably won't ever read Martial God Ret@rd. Oh sorry, I meant Against the Ret@rds. Shit, I meant Silver Ret@rd. Same thing.

An author with a lot of egoistic and misguided nationalism who thinks chinese are gods and all other races are villans and underdeveloped.let me tell you author all the inheritance china was obtained from indian monks.even the buddhism and its techniques came to china from india.indian monks saw the lives of chinese living like animals,so they passed their knowledge to correct and better their lives.its ok to be proud of your country but its not ok to think you are above others.it disgusts non chinese readers and all your good writing skills are gone to waste.atleast try reading comments at end of every f*ckedup "i am a super chinese MC" chapter and you will understand.
Same author as Castle of Black Iron I believe. He's making the same mistakes yet again. Story barely began and already racism. Plus already started the filler crap. A whole chapter about a freakin bow and what its made out of, a weapon that's gonna become useless after 1 or 2 more cultivation breakthrus. Considering its the beginning of the novel, he's gonna breakthru quickly. Was a whole chapter really necessary for a bow that might be with us for maybe the first 100 chapters? Plus trying to make the MC smart when he's just kissing butt. A little butt kissing and everyone around him falling head over heels for him. Now he's gonna make a gun? Whats the explanation gonna be? A whole chapter on Chinese education system thats so outstanding that they prepared him to make anything anywhere? <- Sarcasm Also: SAY MY NAME!^
Pretty boring novel from reading first 15 chapters. There are too many blocks of text, spacing doesn't exist in this novel, and the author has no qualms about creating large blocks of text that could be summarized in a few sentences. Author repeats himself many times, the story is pretty much 90% 'there was a saying' or examples of things and explanations. It was incredibly boring and you learn little to nothing about the world, there are things that should be explained NOT explained so far. The characters are your typical CN characters, although they are.... better. These don't actively seek the MC out to 'finish him off while he is down' nor do they do much of the typical CN stuff. The MC is very boring and although he acts much more REALISTIC than other MCs, he is still boring. If the author continues what he is doing now, I'd recommend not reading this for those who don't favor this type of story.
Very slow paced and uninteresting story. I could only read about 30 chapters before dropping, and most of them felt like a chore to read. In these 30 chapters the MC woke up, went to his uncle, trained and that's it. Nothing special happens and there's too much out of place info dump. It's a cultivator world but so far everything is mundane. Almost no 'supernatural' at all. There's also a lot of bull**** reasonings. If you tell me someone has magic hands and can heal sickness in a magic world, it's fine and I accept it. But if the author tells us that the MC can resuscitate a drowned kid that has been dead for more than 8h with moja sticks and without magic using Tradicional Ancient Medicine from earth... I'll call it bull**** and bad worldbuilding. The story is also undecided. It's a cultivation world but the Mc wants to make gunpownder? Things should be magical but he fixes things with TCM? It makes no sense. For last, the writing is too verbose, with long paragraphs that could be shortenned a lot without losing any content. Don't waste your time on this. It's just bad.
No romance or harem tag??

Why do we keep getting **** with this sort of ultra nationalist crap in it? People love to piss on Hollywood/Americans for pulling this **** (which they do and it isn't ok) but there are waaaay too many novels on here that take this to a WHOLE new level. This and the other novel by this author are prime examples...
I'm curious about the answer to the synopsis. The most precious things in the world are priceless. Ordinary men tend to turn a blind eye to this fact. Apart from the treasured air, sunlight, and familial love, there is still one more thing that’s extremely valuable. It’s right beside you and can be easily obtained. But... I wonder whether you can see it?
It started good in the first 3 chapters, went very downhill for quite a few chapters, then became pretty good for a while but as of chapter 86 it is just a terrible plot. I read spoiler reviews and nothing they mentioned made me surprised. The author has a hard on for his own people and even if like me you don't particularly care, he'll then send you down one lame plot after another and his MCs seem to always have a unique ability involving entering another world/space but there is always some lame rules/restrictions that are supposed to be a balancing aspect of the ability but doesn't really matter. This novel is possibly much worse than Castle of Black iron but I can't say for sure as I didn't even make it to chapter 300 before all the nonsense just made me lose interest. This story accomplished it much faster.
This story was so good.... the mc had amazing character..... Then a fantasy world became Chinese.....racism became a major part (because if it is clans then it's just rich people who don't care about others and their own less fortunate family members in their race for resources but when it's Nations then everyone is together in their "righteousness") The author wrote a good story. It was poisoned by making it insulting to all audiences but one. We love the fictional characters because they are COMPLETELY separate from our reality. Don't send our issues to them
i can only give this one star because it is disappointing. the author lured all of his readers from castle of black iron into reading this by promising that this is in the same world as castle of black iron and characters would appear. however, it was the demons that appeared and after being bombed by the chinese readers when the novel ended, the author apologized and said that the 3rd book is coming out and it is where the story will really tie in with castle of black iron. so yea, here we have a novel built by lies...........
This novel is even better than the usual top-ranked Xianxia novels! A level-headed MC... well, almost everyone that has been introduced so far in the novel is level-headed. Even the current stepping-stone antagonist has a good reason to pick on the MC. The best thing about this novel is that when I read it, I felt my mind loosen up and relax. It’s amazing :)
