There are a lot of network writers that started off writing simply because they loved to read network novels as well, but the original author wrote something they disliked, so they wrote another version of that novel according to the way they liked it, and it became a doujin instead.

Han Leng was not this type of network writers, he liked literature more than anybody. He hoped that he could be a poet, or even an essayist, but he realized that poem or prose were already dead in today’s entertainment scene. Poetry had become something useless, unable to get a proper job with it. It only could be used to show off one’s talent or teasing literary young women…

Han Leng discovered network literature, and he dived into the circle of commercialize network literature. He hoped he could earn some draft money to realize his dream to become a poet.

He planned to write something for him to earn infinite amount of money through web texts, so he continued to pursue his dream of becoming a poet or essayist. Every web text he wrote, was just to test his skill as a writer. His goal in life was probably to write something big enough for people to remember it forever.

Since he dived into the network of web writing, he would read other web novels as well. There were a minority of writers actually refer to another novel to produce more quality novels. Those who shut themselves in, they were destined to fail forever.

Most readers would know from “Fight Break Spheres” the iconic breaking off an engagement at the prologue, and the golden finger of grandpa’s ring. But these scenes first appeared at “Sacred Grave” and “Coiling Dragon”, a very good example of finding inspiration from another novel and make it more interesting yourself.

Han Leng’s own web novel, “Dominating the World with Online Game”, the novel title itself already giving a “Long Aotian[1]” vibe. He wrote all that himself, with an average subscription of 3,000, not bad for a high schooler. He was different than those authors who get 3,000 average subscriptions after failing for 7, 8 years…

He was able to write his novel because he loved to play online games too, the way he wrote made readers felt like as if they were sucked into the gaming world. His sentences were great, his female characters were lifelike, and all of them were dependant on the main protagonist, leaving lots of space for imagination, that was how he got all his subscriptions from.

Online games and Esports were in the same genre, Han Leng would spend his free time to read these popular novels in the same genre. He did not expect that he would get addicted to reading someone’s Esports novel. This author was none other than Rosemary, the leading author in this genre.

Han Leng was reading the “The Strongest King” as well, he was one of the loyal fans of Rosemary, because he liked “LoL” very much. Rosemary’s novel that described “LoL” was actually fascinating, except for a fact that he was bad at writing about female characters.

Han Leng thought that his ability to describe a female character, or a romantic scene could easily overtake Rosemary, not because he was full of self-confidence.

After he finished the latest update of “The Strongest King”, he felt like that as if his eyes were being rubbed with poison, what the heck was this “Yu Shengfan”?

Is she the heroine of this novel?

He would abandon this book immediately if this turns out to be true!

Even Han Leng did not know how to describe a rich lady, but ever since he befriended Zhao Youyue, he had a rough idea about it.

There were a lot of women who liked to show off their wealth, whether it was from another man or sugar daddy. Once they were rich, they would not hesitate to let the whole world know about their wealth. While the real rich ladies were not that low standards, they did not have to show off their wealth purposely. Even though small minor details, it could show that they really simply did not bother about money. To describe a perfect image of a rich lady, it should start from details, not her appearance with all the branded items!
