Reincarnation of the Murim Clan’s Former Ranker

6.1/10
Read:13/?

I might get quite an absurd amount of backlash from this review, but this is simply my opinion. I had probably read this around a year ago or so, to the same amount of chapters I just read, and I dropped it. Progressing a year later, things did not change. Instead, I’m a bit more critical and picky since I can no longer read things for 5-6 hours straight without consequences. Anyways, like the mc throughout the story, I was just so bored with the world/story in itself. In fact, I was bored halfway through a chapter and played a chess game. It’s always interesting to see how a manwha incorporates the world of murim in their stories. Although unique, if done wrong, it will be the biggest waste of time in your life. Sadly, this is no different. The story has the mc steamrolling through everyone from the chapters I have read. Everything is so cliche and convenient for his growth as well. For the counter arguments saying that 13 chapters is not enough to get an adequate assessment/review, the 13 chapters were lengthy and time consuming. To put in perspective, an average manwha releases a chapter once a week. That is 13 weeks of waiting content I read. One of the most important factors to get a bookmark is to leave a strong impression on the reader. This simply doesn’t do it. Though, if you have nothing else to read, this might serve some purpose.

Reading Rankings (Portnoy inspired)

9- Must-read. Drop everything else.
8- Instant bookmark
7- Entertaining
6- Good to past time

3- Just bad. 
2- Trash
1- Waste of time
0- Why does this exist?

PS: Unless there is a Christmas miracle, all scores are finalized. So even if I do fall out of love with a story, I will keep the same score for the chapters I have read.
