No matter how smart, rich and powerful you are, to achieve the goal you need to enter the Academy of Magic on the Planet Tix.

Let every moment spent within the walls of this institution be deadly, but only here an ambitious applicant will be able to get those community ties, knowledge, and skills that will help him to ascend to the very top of his social position.

Therefore, all the talented youth from the Belt of the Worlds take the entrance examinations to the Academy annually. Representatives of the lower clans arrive in the capital these days for the merciless tests of applicants, and for risky bets on the sweepstakes.

Can Yar Row Dark pass the test, study and graduate from the Academy if only one of the thousands of accepted students reaches the graduation ceremony? We will find out soon.

A struggle

I wanted to love this story but the combination of disjointed translation and crazy story left me reeling. In the end I gave up. This version basically needs a rewrite to clearly convey the story.

Enjoyed it very much.

The power creep is very evident in this series but that also keeps the story interesting to me. The story was good and the plot was very entertaining to read. Overall I enjoyed it and look forward to reading the next book.

Good story

Liked it, a good story, everything seems a bit rushed though, you go from one catastrophe to another without any let up, plenty of action and a good story.

Didn't actually finish this, had too much trouble with the poor translation. I would be interested in reading this if it is ever professionally edited.

Something about this series keeps me coming back. I don't like how the levelling has gone completely mad though and it is getting harder to follow. Anyone else find that?

I enjoy this book series

I really do enjoy this book series. It seems that it goes far too quickly for someone to amass a Titanic amount of power even with some sort of time skipping cheats. It's like the stories kind of fast forward and it has a lot of possibilities to go deeper into descriptions and storylines of certain characters. I need the way it's a good read and it's interesting. I'm glad the main character finally got laid even though he's constantly surrounded by beautiful women. Maybe some descriptions? Dark Elven princess need loving too and all the other Dark Elves that are probably crushing on him and the s e e r, and his witch, and more of that one light elf, I mean hiyori kicks ass so maybe let him get some. I mean it's good to be king but you got to be able to enjoy it too

Alert

I hate trying to write reviews because there are really only pass/fail results for me. Did I make it all the way through? Yes? 5 stars. No? There would be nothing here to read. In all fairness, if an author holds my attention from page one to the end, they’ve done their job. Anything less than 5 stars is petty criticism from someone incapable of even doing the job let alone doing a better one.

So in respect for the author and their work, I am going to start pasting this along with a generic review I found somewhere. “This was a fun book. I am glad that I read it. You should try it too.”

Cheers

This is an amazing series.

From the first page the quality of story is awesome throughout the series. The ideas, the world building the magic system everything is ridiculously awesome. The only problem with this book is it needs to improve the translation quality and proper editing. I hope the quality of the translation for next book will be better! Looking forward for next one!

Damn...

My kindle stopped showing me the percentage left and I finished the book. I couldn't prepare myself and of course the book ends when things are getting good.

Yar got a helluva lot more OP in this one, not that I care. Battles were fought, slaves freed, guild expanded, everything that could have happened... happened and now I'm sad I have to wait for the next one.

Story is good, main character is fun. I kept reading till way too late in the morning.

There are bad parts though: some parts are confusing, game stats are meaningless, and MC just keeps getting more OP.

I liked it

I wish Yari would pick one girl, it gets confusing. Maybe one that he could actually have to work very hard to get. Lol.
I love that his talents and skills are constantly changing. The construct I find fascinating.

Hard to read

Disappointed with this third installment. It has been poorly edited and the story seems disjointed as a result. Hope that it receives a rewrite.

High paced power leveling!

Marvelous depiction of ingenious evolution with Yar Dark's focus on creating new expressions of magic at every turn of a page.
