Review of [Novel Title]: A Face-Slapping Power Fantasy Rating: ★★☆☆☆ If endless face-slapping moments and predictable power displays are your style, [Novel Title] delivers. The plot revolves around the protagonist consistently being underestimated by arrogant opponents, only to overpower them in repetitive cycles. Each battle follows a similar script: the protagonist is looked down on, shocks everyone with hidden power, then faces a stronger opponent—only to triumph once again. This sequence repeats to the point of predictability. The novel also presents a distinct portrayal of male and female characters. Male cultivators are almost universally arrogant, constantly dismissing the protagonist, while female characters tend to admire or at least respect him. When they do doubt him, the author quickly provides justifications, creating a clear bias to emphasize the protagonist’s likeability and competence. Situations also feel contrived to highlight the protagonist’s superiority, as he seems to draw out foolish behavior from those around him. Challenges appear in almost every setting—whether he’s traveling or encountering a new enemy—giving him ample opportunities to showcase his dominance. For example, when traveling by spirit boat, he’s mocked as a “country bumpkin,” only to save everyone when they’re attacked. While [Novel Title] can entertain fans of power fantasies and face-slapping, the repetitive formula and lack of character development make it feel stale. If you enjoy watching a protagonist repeatedly embarrass his doubters, you may find it enjoyable; otherwise, the lack of variation and depth could wear thin quickly. Thank you ChatGPT for doing my work for me. I’m currently around chapter 2500 though I doubt it will get any better in the last 500 chapters
