    Everyone, it’s because without the bloodline infusion they can’t kill their own true path stage beasts to get the hearts, they must be eaten very soon after killing the beast & the warriors can’t afford the cost of buying them.

    Meanwhile, half of their True Path Stage warriors didn't even undergo the Procedure and couldn't even strengthen their bodies with beast hearts.

    I guess everyone is a bit stronger due to the mana/energy level of the world. When he arrived the sword was suddenly lighter to him than his adult body from earth too.

    'The carriages were traveling at around 40kph, which means that there should be about 50 to 60 kilometers left. I'm moving at around ten kph, which means that I probably have around five to six hours of travel left. Sure enough, in total, it should be about a day's worth of travel. The guard was right.'

    Some cultures survive on meat only for solid chunks of the year on a migratory pattern so he should be okay, especially eating different animal types.

    For the first couple of days, Alex focused on finding a steady water source and scouted for places with fruit, berries, and nuts. He didn't know if this world followed the rules of needing different vitamins and minerals to be healthy, but he didn't want to find out while being in the wild.

    Australian uni student here, I’m earning $27+ an hour working casually at a grocery store..

    'This fucking grocery store is killing me, I swear!' he thought as he "happily" bagged the groceries. 'Every day with the same shit. Alex, do this! Alex, do that! I swear, when I've saved up enough money for college, I'm going to burn this place to the ground!'

    Yeah, it’s really hard to read young authors works sometimes because you can tell they’re trying to write competent characters without really understanding what that actually means

    Thankfully the skeletons didn’t suffer too much damage, so after restoring them Jay’s mana was still relatively high; his mind still sharp.

    Always finding it jarring that a peasant butcher has the internal humour or a modern 16yo boy

    “Snakey? Wormey? Squiggly-boi? Sir Noodle? Limp dick?” He suddenly had a cheeky grin on his face.

    Hunters, even modern ones with guns, must gut the animal in the field to prepare it for long distance travel. He should have spent most of his life killing, gutting, and tracking animals

    The strange part about reading medieval fantasy books written by guys that have obviously experienced the setting exclusively through videogames is that certain parts are realistic and other parts are so wildly out of proportion that it’s unbelievable; what is 35 gold here exactly? It can’t surely be actual gold, a peasant would never normally see more than a few gold pieces in their lifetime, less a 18yo supporting himself in a small village in the middle of nowhere. 35 pieces is a massively inflated currency too for the historical period, minting coins is a difficult and expensive process without modern infrastructure and would make purchasing anything of value require absolute stacks of metal you’d need to lug around.

    This story bangs! hope you continue It. It’s close to the only story I’ve found in which the author keeps the physics realistic at all. Lots of fun to read for someone into sci-fi aswell as Fantasy like I am. :)

    Good potential for an already pretty explored premise which is saying something considering the popularity of the genre. Lots of stuff I normally hate in new novels like inconsistencies or stupid mc logic seems to be absent so that's a huge plus. I'm at chapter 7 at time of writing so it's still starting out but I'm a big fan of magical realism too so I'm always hoping to find stuff that goes in that direction and glad to see what seems to be a good one :) Looking forward to more!

    I’d assume she knows literally nothing about jakes time in the ordeal apart from his ranking.

    Moreover, the land had been so turned over at this frontier that the soil was completely barren and devoid of vegetation. This no man's land was quite large, a little more than five kilometers and it was a part of the island that Jake had never visited.

    Its true that standing next to a better version of yourself helps to motivate you to improve but I do hope that the taskforce has people from all over the place at least..

    Gu Jun, Wang Ruoxiang, and Cai Zixuan were the three names at the top of the list. To everyone's surprise, the entire team of three people had emerged as the top 3 amongst this considerable pool of talents! There was one more person from Eastern University, Ma Jiahua from the school team led by Professor Yu. He was a sixth-year student in the eight-year clinical program.

    Looks like proficiency does not have a proportional increase. It's exponential. Basically, the more familiar I am with the technique, the harder it is to refine the technique. The last 100 proficiencies of this tier would probably be harder than the previous thousands.

    Yeah dissecting 3 Full people in a day is also an insane amount, normally it takes an entire day to just do one fully. These hard tier are actualy hard af.

    While the premise and worldbuilding are all unique. The translation is at the absolute minimum level for the text to actually be legible. Words are often wrong, phrases/dialogue/sentence structure often dont make sense and the entire reading experience turns into a chore. The author also seems to be extremely immature. I understand chinese culture and society are different from western values but the characters behave against their own interests for the sake of face so often that I can’t even suspend my disbelief, which is very ironic considering that this is a sci-fi fantasy novel. Characters act like inhuman robots wIth no motivations or personalities and ultimately serve as foils for the protagonist to sate his grandeur. What’s more is that the main character is passed off as some honourable and incorruptible guy, yet by chapter 200 out of 2600+ he’s cheating on his brand new girlfriend and not even making a slight effort to hide this from the public. He’s shown to be this humble expert, and behaves as such; yet the second he is given the opportunity he blatantly flaunts his unearned skill in front of anyone and everyone for the express purpose of feeding his ego. The mc never works for anything. He is handed everything he has on a sIlver platter via complete chance occurances back to back, or he’s so naturally talented that he instantly surpasses the the human threshhold in something like archery with no real trainer in a matter of weeks. Every single possible challenge that’s thrown at him is immediatly countered with some B.S and contrived deus ex machina solution to the problem at hand attributed to his ‘genius’. In the opening chapters of the book he’s shown to get an ultra rare drop something like 12/14 times when it’s meant to be a 10% max, 0.001% avg chance. In summary this book is nothing more than a cheap powerfantasy for naive young men and is only remotely redeemed by it’s pacing and mildly original setting.
