Very true. The plot is just a dumb series of "lucky" events, that happen just in time to help the MC. Fortuitous encounters galore.

I agree. This is one of these lower tier novels. They can be enjoyed, but mostly by middle schoolers or 8th grade syndromers. Even Trembling at a High Altitude is times better despite likewise young master enemies.. Looking for something on the level of Legendary Mechanic, Lord of Mysteries, World's Best Martial Artist and couple of others.

If I remember correctly World's Best Martial Artist has a manhua adaptation, but the title is kind of different from the novel with it's Manhua title being Global Martial Arts.

Brother, i relate. The legendary mechanic, in my opinion, is the best novel i have read to the end. Its quite hard to find a novel thats up to par with it

TLM is my least favourite suggested novel. I got farther in this than I did in that one. Never understand why anyone liked that book

The Good thing about this novel is how well done the translation is. Beides a few minor troubles with the right vocabulary, but that might be because the original uses very hard to translate concepts, there is noting to complain. This is sadly not the case for the rest. Besides the stupid and illogical way the whole power/special ability system is presented, the whole story feels fractured. The flow is broken every few chapters to introduce new characters or motivations to destroy any kind of character impressions you had of the MC. It is literally a transformation from normal 9 to 5 worker, cowardly and meek, to a cutthroat assasin/businessman who enjoys killing, to a zealous cultivator, to a completely brain dead and high on power fool, to a lovestruck ape, to a responsible family guy, adopting useless baggage and carrying her trough supposedly life and death trials, and of course the always important nationalist. After reading more than 40 chapters I have seen many cliches, very few new ideas and there is still not a single positive or negative thing I can say about the MC. Worldbuilding/Background is one of the worst I have ever seen. There are literally thousands of other planets and possible alien races, but despite participating in a solar system wide event there is not a single description of an alien race. In general the reader has to imagine 90% because the author does not describe the places or people. The power system is even more flawed, just an example: Every being across multiple galaxies has the same brain structure and path of advancement, which means they are all human and have grown in the same environment, which explains a lot about this book, Not! According to the author there are different races, and planets which have developed 100s of times longer and use technology thousands of years in the future. Evolution or just the advancements brought by interstellar technology are just not a thing in this novel. Feels like if the British who used their technology to conquer dozens of nations and looked down on the aborigines are suddenly totally overrun and outgunned by a single village idiot who happens to gain the friendship and support of a deserter. At the same time there are many superfluous scenes, which increase word count and boredom in equal measures. To conclude, this novel is incomplete and needs to be reworked extensively before it can be called literature. The concept has potential, but the execution is rushed and majorly flawed. My Summary: An average guy gets lucky and optains the potential and resources to become powerful. Watch how he stumbles his way from an backwards nation into the middle of an intergalactic conflict. Follow him on his path of adventure, learning and personal growth.

Hi, I'm the translator for this trial novel, hope everyone enjoys the read! Given how lacking the synopsis is (and seeing some of your responses to it), let me help and give you something more comprehensive. MC from Earth, China, gets mistaken for an Assassin that had killed some VIP (not known who or why yet), manages to negotiate himself some compensation for the mistake and requests the Gene Optimization Fluid, something that unlocks the 7th region of human's brain in this universe that already has an intergalactic human community, giving him a 'special ability'. Personally, I think the MC is the usual CN fare who will work really hard to cultivate/train, crafty because he isn't strong, but powerful when actually fighting. What's great about the novel is the author's attempt at world building, throwing in certain aspects of normal events, and adding additional complications or a twist to the resolution. The 60 chapters so far has him confined to Earth, but after, the story will start doing space travel, so no need to worry about inconsistencies with local geography. Of course, I won't say I'm great at translating, but I think I did a fairly good job here, and the pace of story progression do not feel too forced and will span over years. Almost a year goes by after the first 60 chapters, so that should more or less set the stage for expectations, with around 2 mini and 2 major arcs. TL;DR: An enjoyable read with an MC that won't be too OP, but will grow at OP rates, given how much the world will eventually expand. As a completed novel with almost 1600 chapters in tow, there will be no lack of content if this gets picked up.

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 ... Disclaimer: I'd received a few complaints from some readers that my MC is not a real villain, and I have to agree; if you're looking for some complete psycho MC who burns random farmer villages down just for fun then don't read. The MC is a ruthless man who does evil things from time to time, but only to his enemies or those he considers to be true scum. He gains no joy from tormenting strangers. Also don't read if you want a story about buying s*x slaves and r*ping them, that doesn't happen in this novel. He will treat the women he wants to be with as if they were normal people, whether they're slaves or not.

Guide to tame my villainous husbands

Sequel to Guide to raise my cutie husbands. Mo Qiang, an architect was chosen by the fairy of nature who brought her to the world of interstellar where she was punished to revive the nature that she has destroyed with her own hands while creating architecture that she thought was paving way for the future. Now, stuck with a nature-reviving system in a world full of poisonous gases and intergalactic stuff where she has to start from the very beginning and plant more forest and crops while creating a liveable world for the humans, Mo Qiang was suffering. But it sounds easy right? No! In her path she has three villainous husbands, all three of them want to kill her such that they will be able to marry her capable sister after kicking her away who was trashy and good for nothing. Mo Qiang has nothing against them, in fact, she is more than willing to divorce them after securing her life and raising her favourability in their hearts such that they will not kill her but —— Why are they coming for her now? Hello, you all wanted to marry her sister right? Excerpt: “ Here you go,” said Mo Qiang as she pushed the divorce agreement looking at her first husband who was gentle but poisonous like a snake. “ I have already signed the document of our divorce, you can take a look —-wait, why are you taking your clothes off?” The mer looked at her and smiled gently as he took off his glasses and said, “ Looks like my wife is not happy with me not giving birth to our child, don’t worry I will work hard tonight.” Mo Qiang: “…..” I do not want you to work hard! Take second! “ Take this and sign it,” said Mo Qiang, this time more fiercely as she looked at her second husband who was reading a script for his film. “ I am sure you want to divorce me right? I have already signed —-woah! What are you putting me on the bed for?” She asked while looking at the gorgeous face. Her second husband stared down at her and with a blank expression and voice as cold as water said, “ I have to practice a love-making scene, help me, dear wife.” Mo Qiang: “……” This movie that you are shooting is based on the Zerg apocalypse, don’t lie to me! With whom are you going to make love with? A Zerg? Take third! “ Huff, huff..this is the divorce agreement, sign it... I know that your company does not allow idols to date so here sign it,” she said to her third husband who was practising his dance moves. The mer who was dressed in a loose silk shirt and sweat dripping down his body took a look at the document that she was handing him and then hugged Mo Qiang. A second later she heard his sniffling voice while he peppered kisses on her neck, “ Wife you do not want me? Is that the new idol who attracted your attention, I knew it! I will take care of him!” “Put down that knife will you!” And why is the third prince of the imperial family who hated her to the bones coming after her with flowers? She already has her hands full! ….
