Hello!

so I'm actually just here to address something that has been on-going for a while.
The following novels that are being mentioned will be updated until later today, and the reason why they haven't been updating is due to the fact they are going through a group transitioning. This means, they are actually currently being placed beneath the name of our group (EXT) thus, please be patient and we promise we will make it up to you guys.

Versatile Mage
Rise of Humanity
Beauty and the Bodyguard
The Favored Son of Heaven
The City of Terror
Phoenix Destiny
Reincarnation of the Strongest Sword God
So Pure, So Flirtatious
King of Gods
Godly Model Creator
The World Online
The Great Thief
The Lords Empire

Was there a problem with the previous group who translated/edited The World Online? They’ve been very consistent for as long as I can remember....

I see the hammer of bureaucracy strikes again. Thank you for your swift reply! I do hope the workers are not stretched to thin, I like the things they do.

Tofu i was waiting for the king of gods update... When will this be?

SouthernWilds The reason why WN decided to do this is because of their inability to manage the translators. So this wasn't a bad move, in fact, it's a good move for the translators. Nothing changes for the translators except they will now benefit from a proper management. I understand that WN in the past did not make the best decisions, but we shouldn't flame them for trying to solve issues that they acknowledge.

Why was this disruption not taken into account with the change in management? Why does a change in management necessitate locking out updates for these novels? Is this going to happen again in the future? I took the jump to subscribe to Webnovel so I could read several of the stories on this list and am quite disappointed currently.

Rotiart It was a problem that arose suddenly. The translators are still translating, so ultimately you will still read all the chapters that are scheduled to be released this month, it's just you get to see multiple release a few days later.

Tofu Apologies, but that is simply dodging my questions. I am asking this so I know if I should keep my subscription in the future or if I would be better off choosing another option.

Rotiart Sorry I wasn't actually looking to answer your question regarding whether you should keep that subscription or not. That ultimately is your own choice. I can only say that this issue is only an one-off thing. The posts will resume in less than 12 hours.

so does that mean we ll have mass releases in the next 12 hours ??

I am quite curious when exactly the novels will release again.

Will it be immediately after the issue has been fixed, or, will it be the normal release schedule, just with a few more chapters?

Tofu Thanks for taking the time to at least try and update readers on what is going on.

You have been asked why was locking updates a necessity while transitioning, and you completely avoided that question. Besides the change in management being complete bullshit, you also give half assed replies to questions of high interest for your readers.
I never liked webnovel, especially since you forced gravitytales off and took ownership of their novels, this only adds to the complete disappointment that is qidian.

apocalypse meltdown is on hiatus from 8 months, god knows why...

Sincool It would be very nice to get an update from Tofu addressing our questions specifically. I have no issue with the fact that something went wrong, all I want is a candid answer to my questions. Avoiding the questions is frustrating and disrespectful to those who are spending their money to read these stories.

Sincool I'm not quite sure where you're heading off to, but let me clarify a few points.

1. I'm not from Webnovel, I'm one of the older translators of GT that had to take over or else we'd be drafted into the other translation groups. EXT actually stands for Exodus Tales, and we are a group of the previously known as GT novels bundled together.

2. The reason behind why we had to lock the updates had to do with the financials. If the novels wasn't moved to EXT's name then I wouldn't be able to get an accurate number for the novels releases, thus, ultimately being unable to give the correct compensation to the translators.

So in the end I didn't actually avoid any question. I'm not sure what kind of answer you guys are looking for but this is pretty much all I got. There's a system error for when WN is adding the novels under the group EXT so we're just waiting. We're just as frustrated as you are.

TheSolitaryReader1 The novels will be released immediately after the problem have been solved. They'll release all the chapters that was going to be released in the past couple of days. It's just a system error, the translators didn't have an error so yeah they're still translating.

Tofu now if only they made things cheaper

Pursuing Immortality, and Joy of Life please. They were/are significantly more popular then 3/4 of the stories on that list, but still no explanation.
