The story is pretty good so far with only a few grammatical errors. The MC is very funny and always has those great references to certain things. He also isn’t too BS overpowered and actually acts wisely sometimes. The story is developing well as far as I’ve read and the update stability is pretty good. At the point I’m at, there are still some things about the world that I’m curious about but I feel as if they might be in the future chapters. Other characters seem a little interesting and the system is sort of unique in a strange way. Not sayin that there is no system like it, but it just has a different charm to it. Overall it was pretty good and I look forward to future updates.

For a budding novel, the writing quality and grammar is definitely better and much more developed than other novels I find on Webnovel. I will be tearing into some points I found that might need improvement, and so some harshness will appear. So, the beginning of the novel. A decent pull, with an incident of paralysis of the main character, and the notion of dying and transmigrating into another world. However, the first chapter rings a severe alarm bell in my mind, and it would tell me to immediately drop it if such a problem isn't fixed in the later chapters: the lack of development, the all-accepting character archetype, and the systematic process of tell then show. First off, the novel transitions from an empty, open-ended background to an isolated environment, of which I take as either the "system's dimension" or the gateway between reincarnation. Just from the wording alone, the transition itself is rather choppy and sudden. The character jumps at the sound of an overhead voice in his mind, only to find himself in a new environment. There is no description of a transfer process, and the environment is rather vague in description, something that can be utilized to the author's advantage in world-building only if it is to be used again. That alone signals to me that if additional description isn't provided in the later chapters, the novel might as well be a can of dialogue. Next, the character is loosely developed, and is far too accepting of sudden transitions. When I state far too accepting as the character archetype, this is based off of how a "system" suddenly intrudes in his mind, and he doesn't panic except for the initial moment. Then he's accepting of it, and suddenly is capable of manipulating the system and requesting information as if he's used it for years. There's no description of the befuddlement or denial that ordinary characters would experience under such a circumstance, and even if he was described as an anime enthusiast, everything seems a bit rushed. The anime enthusiast trait should be carefully compounded in him slowly going over his memories of how the "system" seemed similar to the ones he had seen in the novels he read or the shows he watched. This also applies to the additional traits that the Main Character is supposed to have. A special trait pertaining to an ability is introduced, and then we have a snapshot of the main character having an occupation or hobby that related to that ability. No reminiscence, or compounded development, instead tossing them out as independent constructs. Although I can understand them to have relation, as the main character does possess the background to be familiar with such an experience or ability, the chapter doesn't introduce such a background or relationship at all, or does it rather poorly. Instead of writing that he had a background, a few more chapters flashing back to his previous life and especially the specified hobby or occupation will do wonders in developing the character and story (as the main character is a human). The main character being unfazed when facing an unknown or extraordinary experience is only acceptable if it's just an external appearance. The notion of experiencing teleportation should be accompanied with internal fear and panic at the very least, even if the character displays an indifferent, know-it-all expression. After all, the idea of human teleportation only existed in fantasy in the main character's previous life. Another error that would require revision is the story development and world background. As a transmigration novel, it is indeed acceptable to introduce a plethora of unknown, undefined concepts and ideas as long as they are explained or defined in the novel later on. However, after stepping into the "new world", where does the main character appear? What does the surroundings look like? In the novel, we have the main character step into an apartment building. He steps forth to exit, and quickly leaves. That's it. We don't know what the apartment looks like, whether it was different in some fashion to the ones in Earth, be it in structure, room design, or even the color of the wall. And instead of marveling at the new world and it's possible similarities or differences, the main character is only happy that nobody recognized him as a robber. It's just too sudden, and choppy to read. The other elements of the plot are also rushed. How does he fare in the examination? Just what questions did they ask, were they similar to the ones the main character faced? It seems like instead of the main character transmigrating, he's trapped in a dream. Everything is so vague, that it would require far too much imagination to construe a proper explanation or idea of what's being described or introduced in the novel. The flaws in world background stem to the lack of definition. I won't go into the rest of the novel's flaws, this should help you locate the rest of them and determine if you want to correct it or not. Since the novel only has 11 chapters, an overhaul to improve the character development, plot placing and world development would vastly improve the quality and appreciation of the novel. Overall, it's still a good read, and better than a good chunk of the ones I've seen on Webnovel so far. I'd add as a tip that whenever the system speaks, place the contents within [ ] to make it more distinguishable to the reader, especially if you have larger quantities of dialogue in the chapter. Good work!

Primordial Villain with a Slave Harem

Quinlan, a simple office worker finds himself transmigrated to an extremely dangerous fantasy land as a level 1 Commoner with nothing to his name but his wits - and a unique gift that accompanied his teleportation. No one in Thalorind could have predicted that this unassuming arrival would one day rise to the top, redefining the very meaning of the term 'power'... And that he may have achieved said result by joining a criminal organization and clawing his way through its ranks. In the beginning, Quinlan was painfully weak and alone but thanks to his severe trust issues, joining a team was... hard. However, he soon noticed that a lot of people have collars around their necks in this world... People that couldn't exactly betray him. Follow Quinlan's journey as he grows in strength, amasses wealth, fights to the death, and meets lovely ladies. ... Discord: https://discord.gg/bjunEkswQ3 ... After writing over 750 chapters, here’s what you should know: 1. About the beginning: The early chapters are a bit rough. I'm not saying that it's horrible, in fact, I believe the story to be very enjoyable right from chapter 1. But, at the end of the day, this is my first original novel, and I stumbled in some areas, especially with the MC's attitude. He's too reserved and occasionally too "simpy" with the first female lead. However, the MC grows into a confident, powerful, and composed figure. No long-term cringe. He becomes the kind of MC you want to root for. 2. Quinlan’s morality: He’s not a cruel, sadistic villain. Most of the time, he won't even be acting like a real villain, only when pushed to the limit. Meaning he won't torture puppies or civilians for fun while cackling manically. However, he’s greedy, shameless, and opportunistic. If the lives of his loved ones are at stake and he can only save them by burning a city with innocents inside down, he’ll do it. He's ruthless toward strangers when necessary, but doesn't delight in cruelty. 3. Regarding slaves: Yes, Quinlan becomes a slave master. However, he treats all his women—free or enslaved—with care and respect. 4. More than smut: Every love interest has a real story, a real presence. No girl will be left behind. As of Chapter 750, Quinlan has 7 lovers and a few more "in-development" love interests. This is not a "catch them all" story, adding one girl every 20 chapters. I prefer harems made up of girls with richly developed characters over giant harems full of shallow ladies. Quality over Quantity. 5. Balanced storytelling: My aim was to create a work where romance, action, and slice-of-life blend together naturally. There’s high-stakes action, power progression, romantic developments, comedy, and some chill downtime to let both the characters and the readers breathe. 6. Weak-to-Strong Progression: Quinlan will become OP. But he rises slowly, not overnight. His journey will hopefully feel earned. 7. Not every female character listed in the fandom is a love interest: Some women are important to the plot but are not part of the harem or a planned to be, such as his two mothers. 8. No Yuri. No NTR. That's it, thank you for taking your chance on my novel! I'll make a promise to you, showing how much I believe you'll love the novel if you get over the somewhat bumpy beginning! If you read 750 chapters and hate the story even after investing so much time into it, then you may burn me alive!

Armipotent

This is a work of fiction, any names, characters, stories or events, are fictitious! (Even the country in the story is just the author's fantasy as the author never visited those countries in the story) Armipotent is an archaic adjective meaning "strong in battle." Basically, it refers to someone who is physically tough in war. Originally, it was used to refer to the Roman god of war, Mars. ===================== Tang Shaoyang, an orphan who dropped out of the middle school to fight on the street as he found out school was useless for a penniless orphan like him. Tang Shaoyang dropped out of his school, fighting on the street, and made a name for himself. Berserker Tang from Youyouliucun. Afterward, Dragon Wing triad recruited him and everything was good for him. Even though the public deemed him as a tumor of society, Tang Shaoyang was having a decent life. Until one day, everything changed as an absurd and strange game started. "... Game starts! Stage one: Survival for The Fittest!" After the game started, zombies appeared out of nowhere. ... Ding! "You have killed 1000 zombies less than 24 hours since the game started! You gained 3 Talents!" Dong! "You may choose 3 Talents! please choose carefully!" Tang Shaoyang held his chin and mused what Talent he had to choose. "With Zombies appear everywhere, I need an infinite strength... this is one, I still need to choose 2 Talents more..." Then a lewd smile formed on his lips. "I want an infinite strength, charm and charisma to conquer women, and the last one, I want to upgrade my **** so I can please my women!" After saying this, Tang Shaoyang laughed aloud. "Hahaha, there's no way such talent exists... ehhhhh?!!!" Ding! Dong! "3 Talents are consumed! You have been granted Divine Body! Good Luck, Gamer Tang Shaoyang!" Tang Shaoyang immediately checked the detail of Divine Body. After a brief silence, he muttered unbelievably. "Such Talents really exist..."
