I lied, I read 11 chapters. Okay, first the mc was reborn as a clump of cells in a prison that most likely exist in an another seperate dimension next to another world. The prison is something unique the mc can used to store 'damaged' living organisms. And to do other things. As for the mc's abilities: The prison is portable, so he can use it anywhere except special circumstances and to change his face's appearance, of course he can also collect body parts and let go of his old worse quality ones. The world is already explained in the sypnosis, magic plus steam age. Though in the 8? chapter the mc needed to go through something called 'space of destiny' that required all the youths (16 - 25? Is that considered youth?) to participate. 'Space of Destiny' is basically an alternative space (Or a dream, whatever) that takes a scenario to complete, like the movie 'Cursed', so yeah, movies are back again.... (Stupid) but I don't know if such things are going to continue because it seemed like an one-time thing. Translation Quality: 5* - readable SoU: 5* - Trial Read Story Development: 3.5* - for me, it's not that bad though in another perspective. Character design: 5* - difference can be seen World Background: 5* - not really gonna rate it lower due only reading 11 chapters (YESS!!!! [Senior Is Too Steady] Is chosen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, <- - - My previous review and apparently you can do only one review...

I think now i understand why money hungry webnovel were releasing a good novel like senior brother is too steady. Due to sh**y novels in trail read(no offence if you like any privious novels in trail read but they r still below average) they won't able to get much money from them that's why the release a month old trail read novel which they have until now not that i am complaining but they really are money grumblers or in terms of novel they r black bellied jusst like a black hole.

Ikr, but you need to understand, what we are reading are TRIAL READ, so basically, every chapter should be unlocked and free, but what we get is 20 chapters locked and that is 1/3 of the whole TRIAL READ. Also, don't forget that we need to pay WITH COINS (that basically is money) to vote, with that we all can see that webnovel/qidian are fucking money grubbers

can you help me understand, why books need this test, why not all published? and like that, everyone will be happy, webnovel chose a novel as if no one hates it and everyone loves this novel. And even more annoying is when they are chosen, you have to wait 1 week, 2 weeks for it to really come out

Usagi_mofuLv11

One, they do this test to see which book will be more popular than others instead of dropping one book and get hated on. Two, is that every novel before getting uploaded need to get more pages translated because every novel is chinese. And getting it translated cost money so yeah. But webnovel/qidian are greedy bastards so a lot of things doesn't makes sense but once you involve money it will get somewhat clearer

I’m hoping stuff like Plague Doctor and World of Dieties are getting held in reserve for later, but I’m becoming increasingly pessimistic about their fate. Almighty video game designer was originally a spark of hope that trial reads would return, but its been a while since then and no signs others will return in a similar fashion. From what I’ve seen in trial reads discussions, those two seem universally well regarded so it doesn’t make sense for them to never be translated. I'm still holding our hope that they're being held for when other tent pole novels on here get completed.

I don't know why, but a lot of people don't know that webnovel chooses novels by their total votes in the week. So to say, some bad novels or mediocre novels that were chosen was because it had more votes. And to vote you will need to unlock one chapter using COINS/Money, and yes webnovel/qidian are greedy bastards. As for Almighty Video Game Designer, it was translated because a random translator took fancied it and decided to translate it for free, and for most people especially webnovel/qidian free is always good

The coin thingy is most likely becuase they want to know what rich readers want to read....... They don't care a lot about us... Also if you think about it reading novel here cost more than subscribing to Netflix lol

Well from the start I was thinking stories that didn't get chosen had the potential to come back eventually, but as non-trial reads related series. Not much else we can do other than unlocking all 60 chapters and hope they get chosen. I used to read every series that came out, but now I don’t even bother if I get the slightest hint that I wouldn’t enjoy it in the future to boost the ones I'm interested in. I've started writing off entire genres due to the number of cliche and substandard novels. Cell Prison's tracking pretty well in this cohort though. It feels like it has weak competition and its already got more hits than everything else. Then again, I thought secret agent would do pretty well and wasn't too high on Divine Monster Transmuter, so my track record isn’t great... Some things to be hopeful for I guess.

It’s not a one time thing, btw. The Space of Destiny is humanity’s only hope at winning the war against the higher beings (it’s also the only source of copper that they can ‘safely’ get).

Why do people like that senior is too steady? I kinda stopped reading because I got bored. Maybe I'll go take another dog at it later. Anyways...this book worth ready?

It was definitely a little slow, but the main draw is the MC. After seeing so many cliche novels, it's nice to see a protagonist who uses his head and actually tries to be low-key. Seriously, authors seem to have an obsession with calling the MC low-key and then having him draw everyone's attention with some retarded move.

For me it's average, but that's because I don't like when the novel always goes into a dimensional sh*t where they need to play a scenario with the background of movies, games, tv-series ect. But if you don't mind that I think it's okay to read, my review was exactly to make some things in the novel clearer, it's your choice if you wanna go read it or not

Bro last comment is wrong what that translator (tofu) said that the novel which passes through trail read ,the translator of that novel will get a fixed amount of money inrespective of clicks or coins for chapter and if coins exeed the figured value than they will get 30% as bonus but what tofu would get is the 30% of the money for the coins on the chapter and had to take his own risk ...so bro its not free but risk is taken by translator than website

This feels to be one of the better novels to come through Trial Reads so far. I’m a bit skeptical that it’ll get chosen due to it not being a system/cultivation/face-slapping novel, but I can always be optimistic about it. The initial impressions are that it is a combination of Lord of Mysteries and multi-verse crossover novel (Terror Infinity/48 hours a day), but not enough has been revealed to judge whether or not that’s correct. My mental imagery has conjured up some Bloodborne vibes, but again, its hard to say how accurate that is. There’s a general sense of mystery regarding the world that’s quite well done. Enough has been shown to pique my interest and hint at a greater mystery regarding the world building, but not so much has been revealed for me to jump to conclusions one way or another. My initial impression is that it takes place in a post-apocalyptic future time where society has degraded technologically to the Industrial Revolution level. There’s a lot of potential here for how things will play out. There appear to be elements of eldritch horror in the Lovecraftian vein, but they’re also balanced with aspects of steampunk and magic. The Lovecraftian elements feel appropriately mysterious and sufficiently dangerous in context. They seem to offer great power with the corresponding amount of consequence, which sets them up to be potentially compelling devil’s bargains in the future. The way steampunk technology has been used thus far and hopefully magic in the future as well lead me to believe that wits and daring will play a larger role in combat than simply might/strength of arms. Aside from the MC, even some minor characters have been shown to be cunning and sprung concealed cards in attempts to turn the tables. Unfortunately, its too soon to say whether or not this will continue, but initial impressions are favorable. The novel summary is a bit vague and I originally thought this was going to be somewhat of a monster evolution novel where the MC evolves from a cluster of cells into increasingly powerful monster forms. He sheds his initial form fairly quickly and “reincarnates” into a human body. From there, he arrives in seemingly Industrial Revolution-era Europe and gets swept up in a scenario-test type world that all youths entering *****hood must undergo where things aren’t as straightforward as they seem. Survivors are selected to become trainees of a order tasked to protect the remnants of humanity from the dangers of the outside world(s). Side characters feel realistically intelligent and take reasonable actions indicative of their backgrounds. There haven’t been any cartoonish villains so far and antagonists have conducted themselves pretty realistically in the context of their backgrounds. All said, the introductory 60 chapters were quite good and enough crumbs have been laid for the story to branch off in a number of potential directions.
