    Agreed. It's ridiculous how many times people say those lines again and again. And these people are usually considered to be geniuses!!! You'd think they'd have better vocabulary.

    Since you are one of the few rare people to understand how bad MGA and ATG are, I shall tell you, ISSTH is something every Xianxia person with a brain should read. It is the most enjoyable Xianxia for 1 main reason out of all the dozens of reasons you should read it; it isn't f*cking repetitive. How many times have you read Xianxias with competitions, auctions, and roflstomping MCs? ISSTH has all those, but it doesn't at the same time. Eventually, ISSTH breaks those Xianxia tropes in its own unique way. Even the side characters are memorable. You don't have a bunch of idiots or haremers stuck at the same level only to get a REALLY stupid powerboost so they can match the MC. Nope, you get actual growth since Er Gen doesn't go "My MC is the only character in the story."

    No idea what IK is...

    Anyways, TTNH is meh at the moment. I have no real love for it, but I don't hate it either. It's the same for Otherworldy Evil Monarch. Both have their good points, but it's still too early to make me love them.

    TTNH has potential to be on the level of ISSTH. I think TDG and BTTH is a level below these two in terms of writing and plot

    ISSTH had a big and long foundation. Up to like chapter 80 it wasn't very interesting. I don't think there is place for comparison between TTNH with its 50 chapters translated, but personally it grabbed my interest and it's in my top 3 currently translated favourites

    I haven't read this yet because I heard it was being MTLed. Is that true and if not, how is the translation quality?

    it's not; I think he uses raws from a different language (not sure). and the quality is pretty good.

    ISSTH is really at the top so making comparaisons is useless.

    For now, TTNH seems a little empty. Well, there's an interesting political background that seems to emerge but there's not enough variety in the novel to make it shine like an ISSTH. We will say it's just the beginning so it's not the right time to judge it.

    TDG is, for me, very interesting and colorful as there's a lot of developpement : background, character's diversification and developpement, diversity in knowledges and good enough justifications in OPness -> this MC has, at least, a good reason to be OP since he already experiment a life in this same world -> like TTNH :)
    TDG is a colorful xanxia ! (for me, saying that something is colorful means it's rich and exciting ... don't know if it means anything fo others :/ )

    And other conventional like ATG, MGS, CSG, TGR, PMG and BTTH are quite simple and not so exciting. It's just : to be strong and trample on everybody, people are all stupide and diabolic, have wronged the MC, and the MC is the center of the world, so well.... the only ones I think are interesting in all that are WDQK and MGA.

    So, even if it's not at the level of novels like ISSTH, TDG, MGA, CD.... I think it has a lot of potential for improvement.

    by wordy, I don't mean dialogue between people. Where i am at, there really seem to be a lack of dialogue and mainly just description of anything. And i find those to be really wordy, and it really makes me skim over some paragraphs when it get to that.

    Well, i was planning to read ISSTH eventually, but for now i'm reading SA raws...
    IK is instant Kill, yeah, i finished it btw, so i can rate it somewhere around ATG.

    As for TTNH i haven't read latest translations, as i'm quite far into story already, so i cannot relate to your lack of enthusiasm. But from where i stand it the best xianxia i have read.

    He's finally free of the sect and can show off his skills so I hope we see more of him in action soon.

    IK is just around ATG? I reached some 500 chapters(i think)with the raws, but ended up stopping after he started doing the same stuff as the MC in MGA. IK is the same?

    Pretty much. Robbing, Killing, Indifference to everithing besides his own interests. Except there is no romance.
    MC was cute in the beginning, but did not escape fate of every non-standard xianxia MC -> to become standard xianxia MC.
    /// its about Instant Kill. Not TT9H
    I wanted to write a review, but.. too lazy
