Xianxia Senior Brother of a Heavens Favoured

Trixx

C57/100
Faust aims for the Nascent Soul realm — satisfied if he can achieve a level that commands respect across the continent and pass on peacefully in old age. In preparation for his younger sister entering the sect, he pushes for his breakthrough and enters the Inner Sect of the Clear Mirror Sect. The new disciple intake, however, is unlike any before it: prodigies from prestigious clans and talents from across the continent, some even matching the great sects. Heaven's Gaze itself is fixated on the new disciples, signalling a heaven's favoured among them. Faust sweats as he worries whether his plan to live leisurely and raise his family into a fledgling Nascent Soul clan will survive the chaos that's coming.

Ace of Capes

kayday

C56/100
All Lexie wanted was to go to an elite college. But life deals her a bad hand and she's transported to a new world as the ten-year-old daughter of a once-beloved hero turned supervillain. The system wants her to be a hero, but she's only focused on finding a way home. Lexie isn't particularly brave or strong, and her deck-building powers are too weak for hero work. But as an overachiever with a passion for studying, she's confident that empirical research and a number two pencil can solve any problem. As unstable dungeons spawn and new villains arise, she digs deeper into her power mechanics and reverse-engineers a winning hand — one that may not be entirely legal. Maybe Lexie will be a hero after all. But it won't be like any of them expect.

The Calamity of a Reborn Witch

Vera Anne Wolfe

C56/100
After a gruesome death, Carina was reborn in Lafeara as Lady Maura, the unwanted half-blood of an impoverished noble family. The previous Lady Maura was publicly executed as part of a conspiracy to conceal the murder of Queen Eleanora. With Maura's memories to guide her, Carina prepares to follow her predecessor's path into the palace as a lady-in-waiting, using every ounce of courage, cunning, and intellect to ensure her survival and fulfill Maura's revenge — all while concealing her true identity and the ice magic that comes with her frozen heart. After all, they still burn witches in Lafeara. As Carina becomes further entwined in the hidden witch covens, their history and magic unravel dangerous secrets long forgotten. Everyone wants something, and the most treacherous players in this game of mortals and witches are the gods themselves, who have their own sordid plans for Carina's frozen heart.

Hail Thy Gods

Godric

Worlds will burn, empires rise and fall, and republics shatter as gods grown deaf to suffering are challenged by the forsaken.

Medea Malfoy Lives Again

Tidal Lock

ResonantIce

C56/100
Humanity has finally taken the next step into space. Governments run research stations throughout the solar system while private enterprises mine asteroids for rare metals and exotic minerals. However, space remains beyond the reach of the everyday person. In contrast, virtual reality technology has led to an explosion of full-immersion entertainment, and many people turn to VR for the thrill of spaceflight. One game, Parallax Gate, lets players experience living in an interstellar civilization. For maximum realism, its developers created a world solely defined by players' personal skills and ability. Mark Asami, a student of aerospace engineering at MIT, dreams of bringing spaceflight to the masses. To pass time, he plays as Aero Rayne in Parallax Gate with his roommate and their organization, the Temple Wraiths — until a chain of in-game events draws them deeper into the game's world and politics than they ever intended.

The Dungeon Child

Angry Spider

C56/100
Argus was a dungeon — sprawling for miles beneath the cities of men — until an angry adventurer murdered him in revenge for the death of a companion. When he came to, he found himself reborn as a human being, complete with a nervous system, organs, and a brain. Worst of all, his precious System is gone and he actually has to grow up. How disgusting.

Dads Bedtime Stories

C56/100
Ragnarok is near, and the Vikings of Midgard have failed to uphold their duty to prevent it. With time running out, Odin himself searches all the worlds for one last warrior. His one good eye falls on Magnus — an Army Ranger whose death in the line of duty caught the All-Father's attention. Summoned before Odin, Magnus learns the grave news: every realm faces destruction. A bargain is struck — Magnus will be reborn in Midgard, empower himself through mystical runes, and battle Odin's foes in exchange for his fallen team receiving a second chance at life. Waking in a small farming village, Magnus must now train and fight both mundane enemies and creatures straight out of myth, across all Nine Realms.

Strength Based Wizard

RMCollinwood

C55/100
Joseph Sullivan is at an all-time low: lost his job, fiancée dumped him, moved back to his parents' basement. Then the System arrives and Earth becomes a playing field in a contest among the gods. Provided the ideal stat array for a physical combat class, the choice is obvious — until Joe fat-thumbs the selection screen and ends up with Spellcaster. His starting Intelligence stat: 1. With a useless class and only his raw strength to back him up, Joe decides class optimization is for dummies. He pumps every stat point into Strength and sets out to win the whole damned thing. A real wizard should be measured by how much he can bench.

Risha: Goblin Empress

Corwin Benedict

C55/100
Born the smallest and weakest of goblins, Risha worked hard to stay alive. A servant to the orc overseers and an evolution away from becoming that which she hated, she never gave up — hunting her own food and overcoming every obstacle in her path. Thrown into a pit and left to the mercy of orc warbeasts, Risha should have died. Instead she survived, only to disappoint her overseer by refusing to evolve into an orc. When Risha refused evolution, the System took notice. There was more to Risha than met the eye, and when her opportunity came, she seized it.

Dungeon Inc.

Colossal Soup

C54/100
Dungeon Inc. is the biggest 'fake' reality show on Earth — college kids pretending to be actors, starring as fantasy heroes. But on the other side of the portal, the monsters don't follow scripts, the loot is real, and there's no respawn button. For Alex Mercer, this was supposed to be the ultimate campus job: cosplay, clout, and enough cash to kill his student loans. Cast as the team's "wizard," he wields tech-enhanced equipment designed to fake magic for the viewers back home. But then he discovers that magic is real. Now Alex must survive a world powered by karma, Qi, and consequences. Somewhere between science and sorcery, he begins to wonder: can he become the mage he's only been pretending to be?

Marcus saw magic when he first opened his eyes, and nothing else ever compared. But the king is old and Marcus is an only child — hard decisions must be made, and no one expected anything of him beyond his skill with the arcane. They were right to underestimate him. Until the cube. Until it taught him what life meant for people not born into nobility, that all his arcane skill did not make him immortal, and that running from problems does not make them go away.

Godslayers

Trollmore

C54/100
In ancient times, the Eifni Organization reached heaven through violence and tore gods from their thrones. Now their methods are more precise: etheric technology measures love, creates beauty, and reincarnates the dead. By embedding specially trained operatives — godslayers — into a culture, they engineer the exact conditions needed to kill a god and save the souls it would otherwise devour. Lilith was a run-of-the-mill college atheist until a divine being took a bite out of her soul. Rescued by the Eifni Organization and trained as a godslayer, she is now deploying on her first real mission to a planet called Theria. Objective: reconnaissance on the local pantheon and clearing out as many gods as possible before the strike team arrives. There is just one problem — the Therians seem to know they are coming.

Money and Qi are the keys to power in the Republic of Ardus. Ren has neither. He had a good life — until debt collectors tore him from his loved ones and threw him out onto the streets. Life in the dark alleys of Katarn is merciless to the weak, and Ren craves the power to change his fate. He has no teacher, no master — fated to rot away like the pile of refuse he calls home. Until an encounter with a dying immortal gives him a chance to change everything. But before he can step onto the path of immortality, his spirit is tainted by the venom of a Mythical Beast. Will the song in his soul and a lost cultivation technique be enough to survive this cruel world?

Lianthorn Belladonna could have been so many things — an artist, a mage, a gardener. Instead, his family sealed his future, trapping him in a life of scheming, poison, and murder. On the cusp of completing his poisonous masterpiece, he makes a choice that changes everything. He flees the gilded cage of their family manor and seeks refuge in a quiet frontier town, where the name Belladonna means nothing. With his family's infamous scarlet-bound recipe book hidden away, he attempts to forget the toxins and discover the simple joy of helping people. Out on the frontier — and in the company of a red-scaled Draconian carpenter with fire powers — 'helping people' will require all his skills, including the alchemy he worked so hard to escape.
