## My Thoughts on The Strong, The Few, True Cultivators on Campus This web novel, "The Strong, The Few, True Cultivators on Campus," certainly took me for a ride. It's a modern Xianxia with a heavy dose of school life, martial arts, and, well, a bit of everything else. My overall impression is mixed; there are definitely things to enjoy, but also some aspects that might make you pause. ### First Impressions Initially, I was intrigued by the premise: a bullied MC gains cultivation powers in a modern setting, complete with a thousand-year-old mentor. The idea of blending the world of cultivation with college life and hints of the criminal underworld sounded like a fun twist on the genre. It definitely gave me a sense of "I am Really a Superstar" or "Cultivation Chat Group." ### What Works Well The pacing of the story is generally well-regarded, and I found myself easily drawn into the MC's journey. The translation quality is also a strong point, making the reading experience smooth and enjoyable. I appreciated the author's attempt to create a story where female characters have their own motivations and aren't just damsels in distress. The blend of action, romance, and cultivation elements kept me engaged, and I found the MC's determination to save his grandfather quite endearing. ### Areas of Concern However, I did encounter some issues that tempered my enthusiasm. I found some characters to be shallow and one-dimensional, and the plot sometimes felt contrived. The MC's decision-making could be frustrating, and I occasionally questioned his logic. Additionally, the story's reliance on certain tropes, such as the "bullied MC gains power" storyline, felt a bit overdone. I also saw some readers mention instances of racism and ultra-nationalism later in the story, which is something to be aware of. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Some readers mentioned that at around chapter 61, the MC almost becomes a cuckold because he didn't ask the Ye family to solve some insignificant problems. Also, one reader mentioned that a female character frames the MC for murder and later snuggles up to him with no consequences. These plot points could be frustrating for some readers. ### Final Verdict "The Strong, The Few, True Cultivators on Campus" is a mixed bag. If you're looking for a well-translated, decently paced modern Xianxia with a focus on action and cultivation, this might be worth checking out. However, be prepared for some potentially frustrating character decisions and a reliance on genre tropes. I give it a cautious recommendation, leaning towards a 3/5 rating. It's a fun read, but not without its flaws.
