Well, I am here to tell you a little bit about what you can and cannot expect from this story.
First, I would like to ask for the benefit of the doubt. At some points, this story will seem to be going in a specific direction, but the truth is that it is not. So I hope you will take it easy and not simply give up on the story because of things that haven't happened and may not happen.
You can't start a story at its climax. You need to develop certain parts of the story before the climax happens. It is like weekends. Weekends are great, but only if you work or study during the week. Otherwise, it is meaningless. The text is like this. I need a beginning for the climax to make sense.
And with that, I hope you will try to read at least until chapter 7 before thinking about the possible problem that there is in the previous chapters.
But speaking directly of the text, I have a plan ready for this story, so the text shouldn't have problems regarding lack of planning, loss of direction, etc. Also, because of this, I have an expected number of chapters for this text. Something between 200 and 400 if things goes well.
On the other hand, although this is fan-fic, this story takes place in the past, before the protagonists of Douluo Dalu were born. So you can expect that the focus will really be on the other characters of Tang Hao's generation.
And of course, I am not the original author, so I can't be sure of the estimates I have made for this text. Thus, I hope you understand the levels and ages of the canonical characters.
Anyway, if you have any questions or suggestions, just comment here or in the chapters.
