It's a normal modern cultivation setting. Schools focus on cultivation and students work hard to cultivate to higher levels to get into good colleges. It's a meh, only thing I don't like is the cultivation progress of the mc. I must admit, I may have been spoilt by the many trial reads of fast paced cultivation. But dude, this guy was level 5 qi refinement at ch 1 and 20 chapters later he's still at the same level. Overall the story is uninteresting and I practically skimmed the whole 20 chapters and only saw that there were not that much of a change in mc's progress. At most he focused on learning talisman and improving his spirit root's attribute

LIKEI get that they're not going to break through continuously but the way he's describing stuff is so ugly boring at least up to chapter 26 that it's going to be a hard stop for a lot of people I'm going to keep on getting through this or get to chapter 50 and see if it improves but if you are trying to entice readers with the first 20 or 30 chapters of your book say space out the explanations like you can't have them all crammed into the first few chapters people don't like to read exposition all the time
