"Characters can't be smarter than their author"

Absolutely true, in some series you can see the author never seen the very profession of a character or nationality and goes for stereotypes or common tropes seen in movies. IIRC I've seen a manhua about a doctor that dies and goes to another world, the very first chapter the doctors try to reanimate him with a defibrillator which is used to REDUCE the heart rate and not reanimate from a flat line, then, soon as he steps in on the other world, he meets a girl that is bitten by a snake or something, he tries to suck the local of the bite/stung location which is a myth debunked by AGES ago, I have very basic knowledge in medicine and just that made me irk out and drop the series.

This is a great introduction to cultivation stories and reincarnation in general, and Its what a great Shounen should be. This may be strange or even a hot take, but i consider this series a "Naruto done right" because every valuable lesson Naruto "teaches" this Series also teaches but better with the exception of "how to get over a loss of someone dear", this is the only thing this Manhwa doesn't teaches well because after certain point, you have the power to bring back people to life. All the teachings, like "hard work surpasses innate talent" ACTUALLY happens here instead of being hypocritical all the time, literally, Nie Li take his friends, teaches them, and they all walk together side by side instead of hegemonically like in Naruto, which his friends doubles power but Naruto and Sasuke get a 10 to 50 times boost in power, and i'm still pissed by Neji's death to this very day.

Rare 10/10 for me

People that came from the novel will find this abhorrent, but people that is only here for the manhua and never read the novel, its 6 to 7 out of 10... only the Aquamarine arc, after he takes off to space, it becomes a "side-quest fest/monotonous secondary characters/unimportant NPC focus" bullshit, just becomes 5 to 4 out of 10, i was also expecting more of the Mechanic profession, not just a techwear blacksmith.

I fucking hate this fucking ghost, holy shit,, i've never hated mini-companions, in fact i love them, specially the Old Demon from Martial Peak which IMO is the best mini-companion in any series i've seen so far, but this ghost here is just a demon on the shoulder and its just to vomit the narrative, i VERY hope he get better in the future chapters

AINTNOWAY he healed his chest to turn it into boobs lmao

Yep, a "Rescue the princess" arc is coming it seems...

Throwing the golden egg at Salazar in Resident Evil 4 Remake be like:

This manga is bad because its consistently mediocre in every aspect except the art, there is no character presentation besides the maid and the mc, you don't even know how many people are on mc's party, the rest of this manga is constantly underwhelming, no decisions have weight, characters literally act like bad actors in a homemade production, there is no tension, pretty much ALL the human enemies have the bandit/goon stereotyped face with ssj3-like eyebrows and are instantly defeated, plot sucks, world building is garbage, power system is impossible to measure and even comprehend, the "least worst" part of this manga was him fus ro dah'ing one of his half brothers to the river which is chapter one and that's it, only the art is redeemable. 4/10 because of the art.
