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

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
