    Well, putting aside the slightly confusing beginning, the idea of the novel isn't bad. Similar to library of heavens path, just that the mc stays at the school and has a system that gives him treasure chests. Problem is that most characters don't have any depth at all. At the moment all characters can be categorized into 3 types: beautiful female, student and enemy. (Let's just ignore the occasional "big breasts justice" cringe) Everything the mc does becomes a rumor that nobody believes at all (even with plenty witnesses). The bystanders for everything have a typical generic "oH {mc} iS fiGhTing/whatever, hE will 100% sUrLy lOoSe!" attitude. And they naturally have to express that attitude for a whole chapter before something actually happens. I don't remember how it was in other, similar-themed novels, but this one has a few heavy strokes of chinese nationalism which is totally unnecessary. (e.g. MC says he would decline western painting skills because something like Van Gogh or Picasso would be worth less than {lowest denomination} in that feudal society. Shows the actual knowledge of the author on this topic) All in all: a lot of potential, horrible implementation so far

    I really don't understand the Novel's 1st place. The novel isn't bad as is, there is a lot of potential in the world building. The characters, while not quite there yet, aren't really bad. The main characters that is. Most side characters pretty much don't have any depth at all. I don't particularly like the way the school life is described. It's a military school. Even if they want students to experience a rough life, students "disappearing" each year? Yeah, who would care about that... There's also other things I consider plotholes that annoy the heck out of me. First describing portals as a precious technology that is only in the hands of three kinds of people, but nevermind the fact that the "dangerous" red portal is accessible at a school, how come there are no guards/you can simply enter? All in all, a good approach but the plot really seems too unlogical to me at times.
