FlyingFisher Those tend to be chinese internet/regional slangs. Luckily, they are pretty rare in this novel. But on the rare occasion that they appear, I've been able to translate them. Or I'll ask the other translators for help. Or just google a bunch of words and try to see if I can get any inspiration from synonyms.

FlyingFisher If it is a Chinese idiom, we put an explanatory note.

If you were to start your life over;
Would you still become a translator or would you become a writer?

Misguided_Rooster I would dominate the top novels as a translator and use my fame to branch out to be an author. Possibly starting a website like GT or WW. I'll start writing my original when I'm young and start translating only in my teenage years. But honestly, if I can start my life over again, I would probably just invest in bitcoin or apple. I'll be set for life then, kekez.

Dear sir, have you got any news for use poor people who can onle read free dailies for living?

celefoata_ but if you have all the memories from your past life to when you start your life over again, what would you do? xD

RegiusProfessor I have faith on you but I don't have faith on my wallet when the novel becomes premium :/ good novels become premium so fast nowadays so I have to drop some of them just to read the really good ones, now I realize how poor I am xD

Junichiro (Those who want to ask about the premium/free chapter, unfortunately, I don't know the details, so I can't answer your queries. All I know is that things are going on behind the scenes.)

It had been answered above. Use this rare chance to communicate with a translator. Especially, if you read the novel.

Junichiro I'm in no way a representative of webnovel nor is my information from QI.
But I heard from others that some chinese authors complained about how webnovel unlocks a free chapter a day while it's a perma paywall for the chinese qidian. So the international department and the chinese department are clashing over this. They will probably make an official announcement once a decision has been made.

UnusualReader So many things man. Read more, learn a new language (kids learn things way better), girls, better academic results, work to make money at a younger age, play less games, watch less tv/anime, read less manga, mess with people, blah blah.
But, try not to fantasize too much about what to do if you can restart your life or enter an isekai, alright kiddos? Focus on what's actually happening in your lives right now, the people around you, and whether or not you are living to the fullest.
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results. If you daydream about what you'll do if you become a billionaire, get superpowers, etc, yet your actions show that you're wasting your life away, that's insane.
You're the MC in your story, so work hard like the MCs do.

UnusualReader Ikr!! I REALLY DO FEEL YOU! I'm considering on dropping some novels. At the same time, I dunno which one I should spend on :( For now, I'll let things to become somewhat stable first. I'm sure things are going to be quite messy since the authors in China want to protect their interest, and still on going at the moment. So, I've been spending my days checking out books at the library.

Junichiro Check out books at the library. That's what I'm doing. I'm an editor, and I'm saving up my SS for novels that really do matter. Thing is, I can't decide which one :(

ChupChup Thank you! Even when we are paid peanuts, we feel glad that readers enjoy our work.

What’s the best way to report mistakes in translation?

forstuffs91 You can contact me on discord or just tag me anywhere here. I wish there's an easier way though :( I'll leave me discord details in tomorrow's chapters.

celefoata_ how about helping with Martial Arts Master? We are praying for a godsend Translator. If not possible, do you know any Translator who could pickup the novel? We promise to adore who ever it will be.

Ply MAM is ruined. It had a bad rep for being MTL, so it doesn't look like anyone will be picking it up.
The translation is a mess. It's covered up by good editing, but no editor can clean up that shit perfectly.
No translator will want to clean up the mess left behind. They would rather pick a new novel. Anyone who picks it up will probably have to start cleaning it from the start, for free.
400+ chapters of re-tling and re-editing for free, yikes!
Personally, only Legend of the Great Saint can compel me to help out for free. Rip MAM - 2018. (I didn't follow MAM and I only checked like 2 chapters of MAM)
Try reading something new? I like Reverend Insanity. Interesting take on the whole cultivation system.

Bump!

A shameless bump!
