Fate Unraveled

Rustpen

F21/100
Haoyujin Jieyuan was born for greatness — of that, if nothing else, he's certain. In a ruthless world where power is everything and might makes right, there's only one path he can take, no matter how painful it promises to be. When Jieyuan joins the Gleaming Stone Sect, he does so intending to outstrip everyone else and quickly ascend through the ranks. Instead, he ends up in third place in the entrance trials, grossly overshadowed. He remains undeterred — until he mysteriously regains memories of a previous life after a failed assassination attempt. Realizing there's something big going on beneath the surface of the world, Jieyuan reevaluates his priorities and sets his sights much farther. Setting down this path might mean pitting himself against Fate itself, but nothing ventured is nothing gained.

Broken Soul

Macou_Crow

F20/100
A high fantasy story following Michael, son of Count Cedric Rowan, through his life of learning, fighting, and rising to his duty. Designed to be a slow-starting and accelerating story, it begins with a young protagonist and follows him across a long arc of growth — including kingdom building and the politics and warfare of a somewhat realistic medieval setting.

The Sixth Campaign

K.J. Licht

F20/100
Grant Leeman is an eighteen-year-old inn worker who never expected much from life — certainly not to be selected for the Sixth Campaign, an intergalactic war that wasn't due for another thirty-five years. Now he must learn to adapt fast. There's a Store he can use to buy godlike powers, but everything costs Points, and commoners like Grant rarely get many. Survival may depend on a lucky roll of the dice — or on being very good at hiding. A weak-to-strong progression story with a focus on characters, worldbuilding, and prose, building slowly toward large-scale conflict.

In a world where an awakened spirit determines your starting point, Li Yu awakens a low-grade blood-red Koi fish — a Grade One, Inferior spirit fit only for a decorative pond.

Surrounded by cultivation resources only he can access, he begins a path of silent, hidden growth. Armed with two heaven-sent techniques, he navigates treacherous sect politics from the lowest rung, his growing power concealed behind the aura of a simple fish. While others see a quiet, hardworking orphan, he is an unseen predator in a tranquil pond — patiently absorbing the power to one day become a leviathan that can swallow the seas.

Moneymaker

Bertt

F18/100
Nathan Brody was an average college student until his death drops him into My Superhero Life, his favourite video game — a romance-action visual novel set in the Ako Superhero Academy. Inside the game, he discovers a strange system: he grows stronger with each dollar he earns. But the plot has gone wrong. Main characters are missing, heroes are siding with villains, and Nathan's own memories are blocked by an unknown force. Enrolled in class 1-F — the misfits — he meets a minor antagonist who sets off a chain of events that never happened in the game. A war is three years away, and he may be the only one who understands what's at stake. A slow-burn superhero progression story with a mystery at its core and an expanding cast of heroines.

How to Heal a Soul

S.Kasper

F18/100
Growing up in an orphanage, Valar never dared to dream of something greater — grand adventures and endless wealth always seemed out of reach. But awakening to his magic far earlier than his peers changes everything. Armed with both life magic and a peculiar fire that burns him as readily as his enemies, Valar sets out to become a healer on his own terms. To do that, he'll need to grow stronger, which means killing beasts, which means adventuring. A slow-burn fantasy series built on a power system rooted in the soul, where ranks mark major milestones rather than endless stat screens, and every cost of pushing past your limits is real — if not always immediately visible.
