Forty Millenniums of Cultivation
It's not easy to be a man after travelling to the future
Tales of Demon and Gods-I'm bias since this was my first novel I official read

Deleteduser87 please, can you explain to me why people (girls in particular) are just obsessed with these romance stories.................. i just cringe when i look at the ranking and say the word wife or married or CEO in almost every romance novel ever.

    Deleteduser87

    He means that every female section webnovel looks the same. 80% if not 90% of the female lead novels have either the word "doctor", "ceo", "wife", "billionaire", "husband", "love" or "kiss" in their title.

    And for having read a fews to learn how to write romantic scenes, well all the tropes and cliches are already overused.

    And I know from discord that my female readers read my novel because they can't find female lead novels that are not romance centered. It's like 95% of the female readers are stuck in their childhood dream of meeting a Prince with his white horse that would give her the moon (which by the way is exactly the patriarcal stuff that feminists try to put an end to. A paradox, since webnovel just proves that most girls seem to be perfectly fine with current society 🤷‍♂️)

    Now, I don't say every female lead novel is like that nor that it's a problem either. It's just an observation. Male lead novels have their own cliche and tropes, but at least it doesn't show too much in the title and there's a wide range of novels from eastern/western fantasy to sci/magical realisme, video games and romance. Of course, romance is almost never the focal point of the story, but it's generally there too since we're not beast either.

        Coiling Dragon, but that is partially/mostly because it was the first chinese webnovel I ever read and it was completely translated too.

        Off the top of my head, Reverend Insanity, Forty Millenniums of Cultivation, Dark King, King's Avatar, Sorcerer's Journey, and Warlock of the Magus World are some of my other favourites too.

          Superstar of Tomorrow is one of the best webnovel I ever read. It's different from the cliche novels. When I'm reading the novel, I feel as if I need to read every sentence (I mean word) and not just skimming like many other novels that I read. It's very immersive.

          Aside from that one, I also love Forty Millenniums of Cultivation. Sometimes it's so touching that I cried yet after a few chapters, I'm laughing because of how shameless the MC is. XD I really love how he acted so shamelessly and proud of it.

          Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss is the only novel that manage to keep me entertained for over 2k chapters, and I nearly didn't skip any chapters when I read this one. (tho, I used to read this outside WN then moved here when the translation move)

          It's Not Easy to Be A Man After Traveling to the Future. For this one, I'll just say: Boss Ling Lan is the best!

          Then, I like History Number 1 Founder. It's deep in cultivation theme, yet it's also funny and entertaining. (though, I really need some help for the many names and terms there. If I didn't read for some time, I'll forget)

          Swallowed Star is also one of my favorites... at least before it changed into space theme and the world is too big for me to follow. The first 400 or 500 or so chapters are really good when the MC started his path and become much stronger. I really love the story.

          There are many other novels that I read too, but these six took the top in this site for me. :smile:
          If it's from other sites too, there will be adjustment that I need to make here XD

          The opposite can also be said to be true. When you do write something with a female lead that ins't about romance with some dead in the face, douche bag CEO, nobody reads it because for some reason Webnovel automatically classifies anything with a female lead as romantic.

            I wrote one novel with smutty theme...with CEO in the title...although it's not doing great but there's interest on it. My other book fantasy adventure novel with barely there smut...with a strong female lead...no ones read.
            GO FIGURE!
            Well, I'm a writer...I can write horror...fantasy...contemporary romance...anything.
            Since I'm a writer...my world is endless...just that...you know...majority of authors follow what's relevant at present times or else...stay quiet in the corner...lol
            As a reader...I can read anything... I don't judge book with the title alone.
            I don't understand why there's so much hate about romance cliche tropes...
            Anyways...I think it's about Free Speech...lol
            Go ahead and rant all your might...I will just crawl back to my cave and write, hahaha
            Take care everyone!

              Doomsday Wonderland, Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl,
              It's Not Easy To Be A Man After Travelling To The Future, and Coming of the villain boss.

                Definitely the earth is online
                Great plot, worldbuilding and even tho the games are too high for my IQ, i still enjoy it a lot haha
                The mc isnt ruthless but he does care most of the time for his own survival and I just love how the plot keeps making eth dire, its intriguing and feels realistic imo

                Altho its got bl as a tag, theres literally almost little to v little about romance or bl, just like any other story w little romance. It mainly focuses on the survival of mc and earth

                Its not on wn tho, on novel updates - hugely recommend it

                  I love EO! There's actually an audio drama coming out and I'm super excited for it :) Definitely one of the better novels I've read. The games are intriguing and the MC + ML's dynamic is so enjoyable. I love power couples.

                      Release that Witch because it is unique. If I have to read to another synopsis about somebody being reborn and then spoiled I am going to ... whatever. Even if the basis of Release that Witch is kind of the similar with a dash of reverse harem at least the story is not repetitive. Can we please get some stories without these tropes? There are other subjects out there - give them a try!!!

                        yiyuehua yay someone else that loves this great novel!
                        Really? There'll be an audio drama? Oh my goodness Im looking forward to it
                        Agreed, both mc and ml were great, i esp loved mcs character

                        Btw have u read game loading? Its pretty nice up until chap 100ish

                            MatchaMilk I have read Game Loading up until chapter 120 ish. I didn't enjoy it as much ; ; in my opinion, it fell apart and the character development wasn't my cup of tea. After that whole dream world thing, it just conveniently placed them in a relationship in a span of a few chapters (after a hundred chapters of barely any development :() I know there's a whole backstory and everything but not my cup of tea.
                            I also recommend GUEE (Global University Entrance Exam) if you're into these types of novels! The MC+ML are also a power couple and very likeable. EO is still my favorite though ~

                                yiyuehua yes same! After they all of a sudden got together, it was just meh tbh

                                Thanks for the rec! Im gonna check it out!

                                Btw do you know if the author of EO has posted any messages or notes, bc im really curious about their thought process and how the story came to be
