Let's chat. The plot has hit a rough patch, and Ting Yuan wants to ask everyone for advice.
More than two years have passed. Rebirth: Daily Cultivation has now reached 3.4 million characters, which definitely counts as the late stage for an urban novel.
I figure readers are probably tired of it too. I often see readers saying it can end now, that there is no need to continue. If it goes on, it will only become a dragged-out mess and ruin its reputation.
The follow-up subscriptions have not changed much, still hovering around 5,000 within twenty-four hours. The difference is that whenever a new chapter used to come out, it was met with a flood of praise. Now, it is mostly criticism.
On one hand, it has to do with Ting Yuan's update schedule. On the other, it is related to the plot. It is too bland—so bland it is like water.
Old readers should know that Ting Yuan is not someone who refuses to improve. Ever since this book was released, I have been thinking about how to change it, adjusting its direction again and again.
But in the end, it still returned to urban daily life, and that is how it has made it this far.
Daily life is destined to be ordinary. Many friends have left, and many new friends have arrived.
A lot of people say Ting Yuan copies jokes and borrows tropes, but none of the popular plotlines in this book were copied from jokes.
At 3.4 million characters, the story has gone from the start of first year in high school to the end of the first semester of second year.
There is still the rest of second year, third year, four years of college, graduation... Must it remain this bland all the
