De: DarkTechnomancer

Narrado por: Cindy Kay

It's easy to wager everything when you have nothing to lose.

It's a hard life for a young mortal girl, living on the streets. After Lee Jia narrowly escapes a fate worse than death, her last ditch effort to flee her pursuers and survive the winter finds her accidentally enrolled in a brand-new academy for immortals. Now faced with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Lee Jia will have to survive a violent roommate, arrogant young masters, and—worst of all—social hierarchies in order to carve out a place for herself in the world of magic, martial arts, and cultivation.

Join Lee Jia in a progression fantasy adventure about friendship, self-discovery, personal growth, and, of course, magical martial arts!

Good Example of it's genre

A very well written book it took me by surprise honestly a very enjoyable experience. Well written characters and a plot I'm very much interested in seeing how it continues.

An old magic trick with a spectacular new finisher

As of wring this review I have Listened to all three volumes that are out currently. At first i was rather apathetic to the story. It seemed like the same old song and dance that most cultivation stories follow, OP MC, Effortless seeming natural talent, constantly outstripping everyone around them, constant praise about how amazing they are.... blah blah blah. It didn't help that i really didn't like one of the main characters do to personal reasons and that Cindy Kay was the narrator of one of my biggest disappointing experience with audible to date. However, as i went a long i started to realize that like a magician using the bones of an old trick, it is meant to give you a false sense of security so that when they pull of the new finisher it is that much more impactful. The writing is great, the plot comprehensive and focused, the characters complicated and interesting. This story is very good at sneaking up on you and hooking you. I look forward to seeing where it all lands. Also it made me like Cindy Kay again!!!

P.S. This story seems heavily inspired by Steven Universe so...

Magical Martial Art School with cute cat girl

The story manage to be a fun world full of chinese inspiration which I have not seen before. It is fun, imaginative, and you get two cute girls that might become a couple in the future dealing with their inner and outer struggle together

Peak

Slow burn yuri meets cultivator meets sword and sorcery sounds like to much but it isn’t

Hogwarts of Cultivation

Girl winds up at school for cultivation...

Great story, interesting mechanics, and premise.

Would recommend a read.

magic system was interesting

it is unique it's really well written, the third person narrative is unique to say for certain

The Novels are fantastic.

The audiobook is great. But fair warning. You might get sucked into it. The books gets a lot better and yes. You can get book 3 on their Patreon. As well as book 2 on kindle unlimited.

Wonderful

An intricate and wonder story, that explores topics and perspectives that traditional cultivation novels scorn.

What a neat into to this style.

I'm not 100% Sure what you would call this style of Fantasy but it is outside my normal range and I loved it. Refreshing for someone who mostly reads fiction from a Western viewpoint to see one based on Eastern Writings and Mythology. I look forward to reading subsequent books in this series and by this Author.

OMG they were roommates

Read this story as the webnovel. It's a fun interpretation of wuxia/xianxia novels with lesbians! it's great to have it in audiobook form now so I can listen to it while I'm at work. the characters in this story are fun and starting the series over from the beginning is quite enjoyable.
