Description

Before going to college, an ordinary high school student went to celebrate and got drunk. When he woke up, he found himself in a completely different world. There was a big sect, the approaching sect entrance examination, a slum where his body’s previous owner lived, and a shared memory about a missing young girl. When he got tangled in a fight with a few punks in this different world, he fell off a cliff and miraculously found himself still alive, with two more voices ringing inside his head. They were Sword Master and Saber Master. In the company of them, he continued to find out more about this whole new world. He took the sect entrance examination, entered the sect, met a strange man in black, and even participated in a major competition of the sect to have a chance to win over his peers! In this whole new world, he was born again and got to explore the fantastic martial world!

My Thoughts on Supreme Emperor of Swords

After diving into "Supreme Emperor of Swords," I've come away with a mixed bag of impressions. It's a web novel that tries to deliver a grand xuanhuan experience, but whether it succeeds depends heavily on your tolerance for certain tropes and inconsistencies.

First Impressions

Initially, the story grabbed my attention with its seemingly refreshing take on the genre. I was intrigued by the world-building and the protagonist's journey. However, as I progressed, some familiar patterns began to emerge, both good and bad.

What Works Well

Several aspects of the novel stood out positively. I appreciated the moments where the protagonist demonstrated genuine thoughtfulness, choosing to spare lives when possible instead of resorting to mindless slaughter. The author manages to deliver compelling sect dynamics, and I liked that the MC sticks with the same sect and helps it flourish. Some readers expressed amusement at the interactions between the main character and his advisors, which I also enjoyed. There are twists to the story and things that may seem like plot holes are simply not yet explained.

Areas of Concern

Unfortunately, "Supreme Emperor of Swords" stumbles in several key areas. I found the character personalities to be inconsistent, which was jarring and made it difficult to connect with them. There are many cliches in the story that are not executed well. The story has a tendency to introduce psychotic characters seemingly at random. I also noticed pacing issues, with the story feeling rushed in the later stages.

"Supreme Emperor of Swords" is a flawed but potentially enjoyable xuanhuan novel. If you're willing to overlook inconsistencies and generic elements, you might find it a worthwhile read. However, if you prioritize character consistency, original plotlines, and a well-explained world, you might want to approach this one with caution. Ultimately, I'd give it a cautious recommendation with the caveat that your mileage may vary.
