Girl, I’ll Teach You Cultivation

My Thoughts on Girl, I’ll Teach You Cultivation

"Girl, I’ll Teach You Cultivation" is a completed xuanhuan web novel that throws a cultivation sect master back into his modern-day high school life. It’s a wild ride, and while it definitely has its moments, it's not without its flaws. I went in expecting a fun, lighthearted story, and while there were definitely comedic elements, the overall experience was a bit more uneven than I anticipated.

First Impressions

Initially, I was drawn in by the premise – a powerful cultivator navigating the mundane world. The early chapters had a certain charm, with the MC's fish-out-of-water reactions providing some genuine laughs. I was intrigued to see how he would adapt and impart his knowledge, as the title suggests.

What Works Well

The action sequences are definitely a highlight. The MC's power, once he starts regaining it, makes for some exciting confrontations. Some readers have noted that the plot, while initially confusing, does eventually come together, offering a satisfying conclusion if you stick with it. The romance, while not the main focus, apparently delivers some touching moments towards the end, which is a pleasant surprise, considering the title's suggestive nature.

Areas of Concern

However, the MC's personality became a sticking point for me. His arrogance, while understandable given his past life, often crosses the line into outright cruelty. There were instances where his actions felt unjustified and even off-putting. I also felt that the supporting characters lacked depth, often revolving solely around the MC and his actions. This made it difficult to connect with anyone beyond the protagonist. Many readers also felt that the story’s plot was generic and didn’t make any sense until close to the end.

Final Verdict

"Girl, I’ll Teach You Cultivation" is a mixed bag. It has moments of brilliance and excitement, but it's also plagued by inconsistencies and a protagonist who can be difficult to root for. If you're looking for a lighthearted, thoughtless read with an overpowered MC and don’t mind some questionable morality, you might find something to enjoy here. However, if you prefer well-developed characters and a consistent plot, this novel might leave you disappointed. I'd give it a cautious recommendation, but with the caveat that it's not for everyone.
