Over 40 chapters in. The MC is.... let's say naïve. But, some people are so I didn't mark down for that. Cultivation levels/ranks.... honestly when reading I kept scratching my head. I suspect that the author's first language may not be English, but if so they still do a very good job in general. But, the cultivation ranks were.... exceedingly confusing to me. Furthermore, I don't know what mechanism the author is planning to use to have this guy (who knows nothing about cultivation except for trying for years to sense Qi to officially start it and apparently having at most a high school education) understand about the details of electronics and technology. Not saying he can't, but the author implied that his physical training and working as a cashier basically was his life prior to the start. As a reader who works in the tech industry, it kind of had me shaking my head a few times. And, last but not least... as some people pointed out there is a 'romance' tag. But, the overall supposed to be 'urban'. Given the amount of time this subject is given, I think this entire novel should be recategorized to 'romance', because everything else seems to take a backseat to that in the storyline.

Liked it!

My Life Changed with the Unlimited System

Ethan Cole was just your average guy dealing with life's usual ups and downs—until one night, he was chosen by the "Unlimited System." [DISCLAIMER: If after reading a few chapters and you feel that this story is not to your liking, I hope you can just drop it without complaining or condemning. I am just writing this for fun and I am grateful to those who enjoy this series. I have no time to argue or reply to negative comments or reviews. Unless it is something constructive.] This mysterious system didn't just make him rich—it gave him access to endless wealth and set his life on an entirely new path. The twist? Every mission the system assigns unlocks incredible powers that propel Ethan to a new level of strength and influence. But it's not just about lavish spending or luxury—though that's part of the ride! Ethan's journey is full of missions that guide his decisions, from building NovaTech into a futuristic tech empire to buying a football club and even creating an app to revolutionize the food delivery business. Each move brings him closer to uncovering a hidden world of unimaginable power and secret societies. Behind the scenes, Ethan stumbles upon the Great Families—an elite group secretly controlling much of the city. These families uphold a long-standing tradition of combat, where sparring matches or even deadly duels are used to settle disputes and display their true power. For them, wealth is important, but physical strength and combat prowess are the true measures of dominance. With his newfound abilities, Ethan is about to be drawn into their dangerous world of elite warriors, high-stakes confrontations, and hidden agendas. Expect thrilling twists, epic confrontations, and a fast-paced journey where the rules of reality don't quite apply. Whether outsmarting business rivals, dealing with secretive elite families, or rising to new power levels, Ethan's world is a wild ride of action, ambition, and over-the-top fun. Disclaimer: This story takes place in a world similar to Earth, but not our Earth. Don't expect real-world rules, daily transactions, laws, or logic to apply every time and everywhere here.

Though paralyzed, still radiantly charming!

VOLUME001 Ethan's dying wish I was left paralyzed with only a month to live, but that "9-inch" part of me was still hard as a rock. Even the sickly beautiful schoolgirl couldn't resist my "pecker," and to fulfill my dying wish, my sister even dressed up as a lady in black stockings to teach me how to "drill." What's more outrageous, the hospital nurses wanted to make a little movie with me, lining up with the head nurse at the front... Just after coming out of the emergency room, I saw the system panel: Name: Ethan Jones Gender: Male Length: 9 inches Skill: Hard as a Rock LV1 Note: Peak human hardness Dying Wish: To caress auntie's sheer black stockings Task Reward Points: 1000 points Despite my strength and stamina attributes being only at 1, and my agility at 0, only my "pecker" could lift the heavy blanket while doing squats. My face was full of question marks—what kind of bug is this system? Just because I like looking at auntie's legs, did it give me such a special skill? Now, I have no choice. I must complete tasks to earn points and add attribute points. However, the story actually begins 12 hours earlier... VOLUME002 Ryan's death mission Ryan had been diagnosed with late-stage heart disease, and as he neared the end of his life, he unexpectedly received a miracle drug from Ethan that brought him back from the brink. But Death wasn’t ready to let him go just yet. A year later, during a rescue mission at an orphanage fire, Ryan tragically lost his life. But did he really die? No, Ryan awakened a whole new system. Wait, what? He has to be killed by five girls, one after the other? The only way to come back to life is to die? What kind of twisted logic is that?! But if that’s the only way to survive, then so be it... Just, could you all not feel bad about killing me? And falling in love with me—what’s that about??? The gears of his fate quietly begin to turn... VOLUME003Ethan's new body Ethan has traveled back in time and gained the ability to swap bodies with a girl named Lila. What kind of story will unfold from here? Let’s wait and see... *********** Update Daily! 10:05 AM PST Please show your support if you enjoy the story! How can you show your support?
