Description
Before his near-death, Chi Shen entered an infinite game. He vanquished tens of thousands of malevolent spirits, dodged covert and overt attacks from countless players, and finally emerged victorious. Before leaving the game, he set two simple goals for himself: 1.Find a job. 2.Be a better person. The first goal was a cinch. Matching his expertise, Chi Shen effortlessly landed a job as a horror game designer. He joyfully went to work, sneakily slacked off, casually adjusted the company’s feng shui, exorcised spirits for colleagues, and even… occasionally took on the role of proxy head for several prominent spiritual clans. But the second goal proved challenging. The love from his adoptive parents he once longed for, the recognition from his birth parents, and even the family’s exclusive exorcism techniques – all came pouring in. The imposter, who had once led him to his demise and obstructed his return to the family, was now kneeling, sobbing uncontrollably, begging for his life. Chi Shen glanced at his birth family’s home, the debts of blood accumulated by the prominent spiritual clan, and the lost souls in the hands of the imposter. With a smile, he retracted his hand, “Do not disturb my daily life. This is your only warning.” Within his shadow, a catastrophic spirit opened its blood-red eyes, gazing at everyone, and slowly unveiled a menacing grin.

My Thoughts on The Young Master has returned from the Infinite Game
"The Young Master has returned from the Infinite Game" is quite the mixed bag, landing somewhere between a compelling supernatural mystery and a frustrating exercise in delayed gratification. While the premise certainly hooked me – swapped-at-birth trope meets infinite horror game survivor – the execution left me with some reservations.
First Impressions
I was immediately drawn in by the initial setup. A poor young man, revealed to be the true heir to a wealthy exorcist family, gets tossed into a deadly game and returns a century later, armed with supernatural skills and a whole lot of baggage. The idea of him navigating the modern world, while simultaneously dealing with his awful relatives and a growing collection of spectral roommates, held immense appeal.
What Works Well
The comedic undertones are definitely a strong point. The juxtaposition of Chi Shen's serious ghost-hunting abilities with his attempts at a "normal" life is genuinely funny. I also appreciated the author's exploration of death, grief, and redemption through the various ghosts Chi Shen encounters. Many found the ending satisfying, praising how the plot threads tied together and the reasoning behind the Infinite Flow game itself. The subtle, sweet romance between Chi Shen and his ghostly love interest was another highlight for some, adding a layer of emotional depth to the story.
Areas of Concern
However, I can't ignore some of the criticisms. Chi Shen's characterization can be confusing; his motivations sometimes feel contradictory, making it difficult to connect with him. The "hidden identity" plotline also felt artificial and dragged on for too long. The constant cycle of people underestimating him, only to be shocked by his abilities, grew tiresome. It felt like a forced way to create drama where none was needed. The pacing can also be an issue, with some feeling the story meanders without a clear direction.

Final Verdict
Overall, "The Young Master has returned from the Infinite Game" is a flawed but ultimately enjoyable read. The unique premise, comedic elements, and exploration of supernatural themes are definite strengths. However, the inconsistent characterization, drawn-out plotlines, and sometimes clunky writing hold it back from reaching its full potential. I'd recommend it with reservations, particularly if you enjoy supernatural mysteries with a healthy dose of humor and are willing to overlook some of its shortcomings.
