    Hi guys.
    Here's my question.

    Is it wrong of me to expect mc to simply kill or beat the crap out of people When they bad-mouth or harass him?
    Or am i simply reading too much of cultivation novels.

    Sorry for the bad English.

    There is honestly so much of that in the novels these days. Harassing I get, but it gets so overboard

    I don't think it's wrong, but more unrealistic. I suffer from the same problem. I liked CN novels so much because they were such a breath of fresh air from JP novel protagonists. I now cannot enjoy JP novels as much as I used to. But it also means that I cannot enjoy some good series as much either.

    Beat the crap out of them or kill them? That's def. wrong. I guess u don't read enuf cultivation novels.

    To be recognized as the real deal, the MC is expected to kill their nine generations; even their chickens and dogs shouldn't be spared.

    It's depend on the novel and the race of mc

    beta race mc in cultivation novel will just use jutsu no talk to silence the problem
    ALPHA Race Mc in cultivation novel will just stomp the problem just like you step and stomp the ant
    beta in modern world setting after got bullied and cannot fight back got isekai-ed
    ALPHA in modern world is the one keep low profile and will bully if needed
    And so on......

    it isnt wrong to expect that in a CN novel since they are unrealistic and fantasy based, But that doesn't hold good in other novels.
    And plus its scary to think what would happen if the reader got influenced by that train of thought.

    Beating the crap out of them just brings more problems since the MC would need to deal with revenge from the beaten up guy relatives, clans, and so on and so forth..causing the story to become very very predictable...

    It's "too many cultivation novels". Your illiteracy has offended me and so I will call down my entire sect, and the sect backing it as well, on your head! All because you hurt my feelings.

    Simply reading too much cultivation novels. I'd only consider the kill solution if it's the only option or if one is in a war or battle that has one's life on the line. They simply want to kill because they're edgy and have the imagination for it but not the bloodlust for it irl.

    I think u should u see from the villain point of view as well. If mc isn't acting like weak shit n show his true strength from the beginning nobody would even bully him in the first place.

    U should read more of IETs' novels..

    Delusional fantasies that are written... It's kind of depressing.

    You have to consider the writer, they're gonna make them fight anyhow. There are going to be some characters who are going to pick the fight anyhow because they think they're that hot and powerful. When they can see Mt. Tai and sense Mt. Tai but are still delusional enough to go through with it.

    Well usually in most of IET's novels its too often the mc himself who start the fight to save someone or reach his goal. So the cycle of bullying can completely discarded.

    They're only protected by their God, the Writer and his Blessing known as Plot Armor. I swear, if the MC encountered ANY actual competent people, they would die not knowing how they befell such a fate. Because those of competence don't need to lift their fingers and just need to put the MC in an un-survivable situation without any chances like such as being able to take control of said energy or being able to wrest control of an artifact away from its user or gain access to a new energy source or give them time to run away.
