so how shall i join the contest like thay?
my new book doesn't show and i can't vote for it
All new books go through a vetting process by the staff, this normally takes 3 to 5 days with holidays (like the recent lunar new year) delaying this process further. Once your book has been vetted it will show up. As for voting, vetting is one half of the requirement, your book also has to have reached 4k published words before voting opens.

Hey, you last sentence sort of doesn’t make sense.
A person needs to reach 4K words for the vetting process to start. The vetting process is what unlocks powerstones/voting once they approve the vetting.
“This is pertaining to all new books published on Webnovel. As there has been a recent high increase in spam books (i.e. those with customer service numbers) as well as books with very questionable content that is prohibited by Webnovel, all new books (with more than 4k words published) must go through a vetting process by the content editors. Do not panic if you have just newly created your novel but are unable to see it or vote for it. The editors are extremely swamped so it may take a few days for the vetting process, and as the staff do not work over the weekends, it will take longer for books published on Sat and Sun to be vetted. Please note that we will vet the books on a first come, first serve basis. Please do not DM the staff to beg/demand that your book be expedited in order to skip the queue, we need to be fair to all authors and vet according to first come, first serve. Thank you and we appreciate your patience and understanding!”
(This is old, but all the same that tells about the vetting process. But they did take a holiday and vetting is longer than usual. But just be patient)
Ah okay thought the vetting was at creation not at the same time as the 4k word requirement, my mistake. :)
