End-of-Volume Summary

This volume's story will temporarily come to an end here. The next volume will begin, which will also be the final volume of this book.

That time, all the stories will be given an ending, and the male and female protagonists will also have an ending.

Let me briefly report on the results first.

I received the 10,000-subscription badge this month, which is considered one of the best results among Douluo fanfiction writers. I am very grateful to all the readers for their recognition and tolerance of a third-rate writer like me.

To be honest, I didn't write the third volume very well; there were quite a few problems with controlling the pacing of the plot.

The Simulation went well, basically following the initial plan, including the final wrap-up, which I am personally satisfied with.

The problem lies in the actual plot.

Originally, I didn't want to write about Xiao Xue as the first female lead who truly had an intimate relationship with the protagonist.

However, due to various reasons, I made some mistakes in controlling the details of the plot, and the characterization of some characters was also lacking in strength in the early stages, which led to this result.

If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have needed to spend so much time making up for it later, making some plot points seem complicated and redundant.

The root cause is insufficient detail in the outline. It could have been written much more smoothly and fluently. I will pay attention to this in the future.

As for the latter half of this volume, I actually found it more difficult to write than the first two volumes.

In order to fill in the characters, too much emphasis was placed on their romantic relationships, which overshadowed other interwoven conflicts and contradictions, including those in the Slaughter City and Heaven Dou City sections.

This is a real shame. The plot could have been much richer, giving readers a better reading experience.

Of course, there are also things I'm satisfied with.

The main focus is on portraying the female lead.

The character of Qian Renxue has been largely developed, and in this volume, the character of Zhu Zhuqing has also been enriched considerably.

Most importantly, Bibi Dong's overall character is quite well-developed.

From the initial Simulation to the changes in mindset after waking up, the changes in attitude towards Su Cheng and those women, all the way to the complete personality that emerges from the Hell Road.

I am personally quite satisfied with the entire change process.

I never envisioned her as a magnanimous woman.

Everything she did was a concession she had to make in order to get a relationship.

Her portrayal of Zhu Zhuqing is actually a reflection of her own inner thoughts.

I saw some readers commenting in the chapter review that she was "the wicked stepmother of Snow White," which is indeed somewhat similar.

It would be quite interesting to have this kind of character as the female lead, wouldn't it?

Finally, there's the issue of the female leads' mindsets.

Although Zhu Zhuqing harbored resentment, she could accept it. Arriving late was only one aspect; the most crucial factor was the influence of her family background.

As for Bibi Dong, the title of the first chapter after leaving the Simulation is "Unworthy," which actually reflects her mindset.

Ah Yin has a weak personality, is simple-minded, and is easy to manipulate.

Only Qian Renxue is currently unable to accept this situation, so she will choose to leave temporarily.

If it weren't for this, no matter how much Bibi Dong schemed, she wouldn't have been able to force her away.

The relationship between Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong means that if both of them are to be the female lead, I have to think about how to arrange the plot.

It was all written in a consistent style, and I wonder if the readers are satisfied with this setting.

As for the main character... well, everyone can criticize him if they want, he deserves to be criticized!

He wants to build a harem, but he doesn't have the Long Aotian aura of a powerful hero who can make all the beauties submit to him, so the process will naturally become more complicated.

They must also be prepared to be cursed by thousands, pierced through the heart by a sharp sword, and torn apart by a machete.

Su Cheng must have been mentally prepared!

Finally, I would like to sincerely apologize to everyone.

Due to work commitments, I've been quite busy at the end of the year, so updates have been a bit lacking. I apologize for any inconvenience.

It's not that I'm being lazy or anything; after all, nobody turns down money, right?

I just hope my first book will have a good result; I don't want to write something cheap or just do a perfunctory job.

I can write about interesting daily life and the development of the romantic relationship, but I can't write meaningless, mundane accounts.

Only by writing diligently can I accumulate experience and learn lessons, so that I can continue to write other books in the future.

P. S. I lack experience with this book. When I finish the next one, I will definitely organize the outline properly. The plot of the later part of the third volume had to be changed, which was really frustrating...

The next volume will expand into the Soul Beast World and then touch upon higher-level powers, namely the structure of the Divine Realm.

Because there are many contradictions in the original setting, and because of the plot holes related to the "Simulator" principle, I will make appropriate changes to the relevant plot and settings of the original work.

For those who haven't read the later installments of Douluo, it won't affect your viewing experience. Actually, I haven't read much of it either; I only recently filled in the plot for writing the fourth volume, so there isn't much related content.

Aside from the group of Soul Beast led by the Silver Dragon King, the others will not be depicted in much detail.

Volume 4 begins tomorrow: The Dragon God Counterattack.
