Can a Scholar Be Called a Villain读书人的事那能叫反派吗

(dropped chapter 500+ MTL) This book has some really rough arcs, although I dont really do it it would be best to practice the dao of skipping. Fights can also be broken up over 10 - 20 chapters just to exchange a few moves and the characters appear a few chapters earlier with quick introduction and 0 relation to earlier plot, just to make up the numbers. Factions, locations etc. are also of this hollow kind. But u can still enjoy it, translation and MTL is basically the same so no need to wait for updates and there are many chapters. The C tier rating from my earlier review, at Chapter 95 honestly u can only downgrade it not upgrade but what do you expect? One annoying thing is constant perspective switching to characters which just appear one chapter ago and will never reappear.

Overall insane word padding hollow filler trash novel which deteriorates and pulls everything out of authors ass, but has ruthless and benefit oriented MC that sees human lives as nothing but stepping stones and can harm innocent people without flinching (rare MC type). Also some things are funny, some things are epic and some things are... So there is still this enjoyment.

all chapters are here --> ffxs8. com/trxs/16131. html

has this novel been completed?

C+ tier (I refuse to put system novel in B or higher tier, as far as system novel's go this is upper grade)

MC is isekai with classic system MC (aww i didnt win the raffle :( , wtf system why u bully me?) mentality. MC: [politics/scheming/kingdom building + cultivation with anti-protagonist system)]

Though around 100 chapters the author spins that the entire personality and plot of the novel so far was just for MC to . To be fair this was foreshadowed in earlier chapters but I thought it was very anticlimactic and boring... why should I care about any of the characters / MC / story so far from now on?

Something to note is that this novel is written in such a way, that the author *puts on anime glasses* + explanation of mystery (MC so smart). Which obviously shows writing skill of author is not top tier (as expected of system novel).

Lets see if author can make move to next realm interesting?

Btw has insane amount of wuxia and some xinxia references from other novels. If you know them junior brother begs senior brothers to impart the jade slip.

I like it. Maybe you'll too

Is there a mtl ?

Will take forever to get translated

read til chapter 101

It starts off enjoyable, but as you progress through later chapters, it becomes more demanding. A familiarity with classic wuxia novels, or at least having read them, enhances the experience. While it's possible to read without prior knowledge, understanding the references the main character makes adds a deeper appreciation to the narrative.

117 глава

This is the typical world-climbing novel where the MC keeps moving from the lower realm to the upper realm.

I give this novel an A
,in comparison with IAm the Fated villain it's way better
1,so evil and cruel an mc that i actually felt bad for the protagonists some of who were actually very decent guys unlike the dick brained retards in IAm the Fated Villain nobody feels bad for
2,Petty and jealous which makes him real but also shrewd and cunning at the same time,no mentions of the mc being smart while just having common sense like in IATFV,u can see this mc is actually smart
3,No mercy for absolutely anyone even those who like him(makes me sad sometimes)
4,amazing schemes that kept getting better
5,the system is sentient but not annoying
There might be some i didn't think of,the only thing i didn't like in this novel was the all over the place start which became better quickly and an arc with obscure novel references but i still was able pull through it
In conclusion for me the mc is the best villanous mc ranking above any mcs i have read so far and this book is the best i have read i a while
