The first 20 or so chapters were good and I have nothing bad to say about it. The writing quality throughout the novel is excellent. Minor spoiler alert My main problem is with the MCs himself and the world developement. I dropped this around chap 36 mainly because this mc is acting cautious FOR NO REASON. 36 chapters in and there is no credible reason why he’s hiding his power, just ‘ooh let me use 20% of my power so I can get into this so if someone disagrees I can face slap them’, ‘I’m gonna go to this super powerful institute and act like a normal student so I can fit in’. When it reality the MC going to the institute is essentially holding him back from becoming more powerful. Now you might say, well young master what if he’s going there to make connections or enjoy the resources he’ll get as an elite student. Well sure, except HES HIDING HIS POWER TO THE POINT PEOPLE THINK HIS A GENERIC CANNON FODDER. Sigh if I’m wrong and the novel picks up after this just reply in the comments but I doubt it’ll get any better. I personally actually enjoy cautious MCs but this one feels like the authors just forcing it to happen and it just ruins the novel. Word development is sub-par at best, all we know is the generic ‘MoNsTeRs ToOk OvEr EaRtH wHeN tHeY mUtAtEd’ and it’s just lazy writing. Understandbly it is still early days since there’s only 50 chapters out at the time of this review but how do we know barely anything about the world. No teasers, no hints, no nothing. Feels like one of those novels where there’s gonna be a massive info dump in the future to make up for it and I am not there for it. To be fair I’ll probably read as a filler once the updates become more frequent since I do like the idea behind the novel. but I’m just disappointed with the way it’s turned out to be. Sigh
