Possibly the most disappointing novel I’ve ever voted for. Confusing and boring is how I would describe it. Half the chapter is spent on describing every treasure he has, why it’s important, and what it can do. I can’t even tell if there’s a plot underneath all this description. Absolutely no hook to make me want to read more, no motivation for the main character, no reason to care about his previous life, and no interesting world building. Seems more like a rough draft or an idea chart than an actual story. Maybe it’s the translation from Chinese to English, or maybe it appeals more to Chinese culture, all I know is I don’t like it

Sorry to make you confuse about the whole thing. This is the first book author wrote so he has many things to learn. And there are many terms relate to Chinese culture. Out team will try our best to let you understand the story. I hope you will find more interesting in the following chapters.

I can understand that, writing your first story is hard. I appreciate your hard work in translating this, even if I didn’t enjoy it. You still have plenty of fans, and I might even check it out later to see if the later chapters get better. Thank you for your hard work, and have a nice day!

There are a lot of books like this one, but it is unique as the MC being overpowered is relative and the MC achievements comes from his own hardwork, it's not common out there as most MC achievements are more dependent on adventures. It's a good read if you are patient enough to see the MC power take shape, though the book is hurried, maybe that's what you find confusing with all the time skip, if you read it patiently, you will find it okay among other books like it.

GlaringError here! As I have already mentioned in my author review I am restating it here since I am getting tons of comments about it, that I am more of a reader myself than a writer, I made this novel in an attempt to capture my fantasy world residing in my mind into words.. Writing is new for me.. The premise of my novel is inspired by many great works that I have loved over the years. And some elements I have in my novel that are slightly similar to them but it's just the skeleton of it, the real meat of the plot is entirely my own cooking. Some of the influence that is more noticeable is from The Runesmith (By Kuropon), The King's Avatar (By Butterfly Blue) and Shadow Slave (By Guiltythree). I have immense respect for these legends and I can only hope to follow in their footsteps. To all those who comment just by judging the name, at least give it a chance before letting your opinions known. Thank you.

Earth's Greatest Magus

#Top 20 Webnovel Best Sellers 2021, 2022, 2023, and in 2024 #### History is said to be written by the victors. If so, how about Earth's history? Two millennia ago, a young boy named Emery met a tragic fate. In his final moments, he was transmigrated and accepted into the Universe's most prestigious school of magic. “You are among the chosen few from thousands of human worlds. Whether you seize this opportunity or not, is up to you. You are at Magus Academy, the pinnacle of humanity's ingenuity. Magic, science, and might are all within reach for those who dare to pursue them." [Scan complete - Quadruple affinity. Water, Earth, Plant, and Darkness.] "A quadruple acolyte! Only one in tens of thousands of acolytes possess this!" Thus began Emery’s journey together with his 4 friends from the furthest corner of Earth. Each year they returned to Earth to grow, seek revenge, save the princess, conquer the world, and become Earth's Greatest Magus. Their names are still etched in our history books to this day. Authors Note: I have always been fascinated by writing fantasy relating to historical facts. In this story, you will find characters inspired by real-world myth and legend. The universe I created hopefully will make the reader's imagination excited and logically plausible. I hope you enjoy it. ### Here are some key aspects you'll encounter: MC: The protagonist follows the classic weak-to-strong arc. World: Picture a blend of Harry Potter and Star Wars. System: While it's primarily a magic-based story, there's a structured system in place that's easy to follow. Additionally, elements of cultivation. Harem: No, there are several female interests. But I enjoy romance first. So even if there will be more than one love interest it will be deep. Note: English is not my first language, but you'll notice that my writing and English skills gradually improve throughout the chapters. Other: The novel delves into deep research on science and history, enriching the storyline with factual and intriguing details. Give it a read—you might be pleasantly surprised by what unfolds.
