    I am really enjoying this story it has great characters and a super cool world I’m not very smart but I think the grammar is good the only problems I have are 1.) the names are hard to figure out haw they should sound and 2.) sometimes the people do stupid things and I get frustrated because I can see a similar or more efficient way to do it

    Great work. The only qualm I have is a few spelling or grammar errors, but that's something that will get picked up with future editing passes.
    The main character's unique ability is pretty awesome, even if it goes out of control a little bit.
    Spoiler: Spoiler
    The part that went too far for me was the armor. The rest of the power made sense, but that just came out of nowhere.
    I'm a fan of the wuxia/xianxia style novel so it's not a problem to see this style. It's quite nice that you aren't relying heavily on the genre's tropes, nor has there been a string of 'silkpants' causing trouble. Quite nice. I wouldn't call it a masterpiece of the genre, but I don't feel bad binge reading it like many of the most popular or big c-novels. Keep up the good work.

    Twas good.
    Chap 49-50 totally ruined it for me but i'll try to continue reading. It's just what I hate the most;(SPOILER ALERT)you befriend someone who you completly trust but it turn out that he was a fucking emperor and now a fucking ennemy clan kidnap you saying "We don't want but we must" and just torture you for no real reason other to create an alliance whom they are trying to blackmail. That's some dumb shit. As if just because the kid is an emperor everybody's gonna follow his words... "Ah! My friend is being tortured lets help the torturer YAY!". Fucking dumb.
    Last story that did something that I really didn't like got away with a shitty 3 stars I'm proud to have managed to control myself enough to at least give a fair note.

    Well I read some more bit it seems like there is a huge inconsistance.
    The bastards knew they were gonna kill him but still said whatever's good to be useless. Once again the way they interact with each others it's obvious that the bads guys will kill him when they're done but you made him try to seems like a good guy. Honestly it feels like a failed experiment of a caracter so I will not mind it and just continue reading.
    The rest feels logic and well written but there is only one things I didn't like and its the scene with the princess or something. It made me feels like a made up thing. Just making her having a ton of spys watching them while they speak of important things is not how I imagine a kingdom or whatever they are to do.
    Corrupt peoples are everywhere so imagine a spy...
    Well I don't have anymore time but just know that I do enjoy your story.

    you keep doing those time skip and just skipping over character interactions, not even bothering to flesh out the characters, so when the people he was gathering herbs with betrayed him for example, I felt literally nothing, and the entire thing felt really fake. its the same with every other part of the story, and it feels more like you're writing a summary of what's happening than an in-depth account that is supposed to draw in a reader. do a rewrite and dont skip over stuff, as it is now your "story" isnt worth reading. its a good idea, and i dont mean to discourage you, but i know very little about any of your characters and dont care what happens to them either

    ★★★ 3.0
    The main character gets an incredibly cool power at the start, but spends months not using it at all. Typical cliche about the MC awakening some weak power which turns out to be OP, once he finds out it is OP though he doesn't look to grow it or become much stronger.
  • BadGenuisRoyal Road
    ★★★ 2.5
    The world view is vague. How many continent? Just how large is the Main Clan? How come demon and Human fight if they only have different type of power but have the same appearance? The characters don't feel so alive. The farce in the medical garden came and went, i didn't even felt sad for the MC. the MC is so dumb, he knows that he can get stronger by killing and using his gate. But he went to other town where he can't use the gate and planted herbs.

    ★★★ 2.5
    It is a good novel, but reading it all that catches my attention the most is how unintelligent the MC is... and its not that bad of a novel, so that sad for me cause it makes it very difficult to read for me, and im running out of good novels to read lol

    ★★ 2.0
    The MC is an idiot. His cheat power is so overpowered that he can get stronger just with the help of his parents but he still picks the irrational route.
    He is also part demon and he still blunders into demon detector arrays... just to force the plot.
    It's a waste of time. Can't believe i made it so far 😂
