Interesting story. The beginning is the highest point to me, including the prologue. Adam's struggles and daily woes are interesting, the way you have portrayed him a marvelous, the problems, and his reactions. Although I dislike the second personality thing, I think Adam would've been better as a character if those murderous tendencies were part of his "main self" rather than a separate personality. The system is not intrusive nor appears too much giving a cool balance and natural flow to the story, instead of, you know how most system stories go. While not bad per se, the new world/cultivation part is not that interesting compared to Adam's life on Earth, but this may be because of how early the story is right now. There are no pacing problems and you made Adam, and his master, compelling characters, especially his master in my opinion. These old sages always are cool in any story they appear. Your writing is good and your narrative is well played, there isn't much to criticize or speak about it. Overall a story with a good start.

I never expected to encounter a story that feels like a mix of Moonknight and Chinese Cultivation stories but here we are. The story is hard to follow sometimes, as it's so fast-paced it sometimes just doesn't have time to describe things that are happening in a way that it perhaps should. Also, particularly in the early chapters, the POV shifts around quickly and include an omniscient reader's viewpoint at times. However, while it can be easy to get lost in the prose sometimes, it is a high energy and fast-paced story that is really only possible to get bored reading if you just don't care for systems or cultivation. The story has a lighthearted tone even when dealing with things that would otherwise be very gritty or dire, with a casual and humorous tone to both the dialog and descriptions. This includes the violence, which often seems to become intentionally slapstick/over the top to match the tone of cultivation stories. This is still quite early in the story and so it's impossible to say where it's going - the only overarching story we're really introduced to so far is Adam's soulmate struggling for control. At times he functions like an alter, and at times like a persona, which as said gives the story a kind of Moonknight vibe. It's very likely, given the IQ system, there will be elements of Limitless sprinkled in later as the story continues and Adam's IQ increases. It's certainly a different, more western take on the cultivation genre, and worth keeping an eye on to see where it goes.

I Can Copy And Evolve Talents

Across the vast convolution of worlds, divine beings rule as absolute sovereigns—each god assigned dominion over a singular realm. Skirmishes are inevitable, whether for power, amusement, or sheer pettiness. One such battle, between Nexus, the God of Trickery, and an aging, senile deity, resulted in an anomaly… A soul misplaced. Elliot, an ordinary man, was never meant for Ul’Tra-el. But fate, or perhaps a cosmic prank, had other plans. Unlike other worlds, Ul’Tra-el is an aberration—one that developed a voice. A voice that diverged from the natural order. A voice that changed everything. Its foundation cracked, leaking dimensions into one another. Rifts tore open like festering wounds, vomiting forth unspeakable horrors—monsters not meant to exist. But the world did not sit idly by. In response—perhaps an act of self-preservation—the world gifted its inhabitants power. Talents awakened, granting people extraordinary abilities. And for every rift sealed, the Voice of Ul rewarded them generously. Survival was simple: fight, grow stronger, and close the rifts… or die trying. In this ruthless, blood-soaked reality, Northern—a white-haired boy burdened by his past life—was reincarnated. But unlike the chosen heroes, he awakened as a talentless nobody. No power. No strength. No future. And when death loomed over him—when despair clawed at his soul and the cold grip of the failure threatened to take him— A Voice responded: [System Notice] [Your Soul cannot take a form.] [Searching for a Unique Pattern Ability…] [Searching…] [Search Found.] [A Unique System Ability has been detected.] [You Can Copy And Evolve Talents] ... Follow Northern through his journey as he becomes the pinnacle of this world. This a story about a white-haired boy’s rise from rubbles!! Note: This is an overpower genre but MC does not just start off like that. Even though MC can copy talents he doesn't just jump around copying talents because there's a limitation. However, his rise to strength is depicted and is an experience to enjoy. The first few hundreds would be frustrating to follow because MC is weak but that makes the experience all the more interesting when MC finally gets freaking strong and starts wiping the floor with everyones asses.
