"Greatness isn’t born — it’s built, sweat after sweat." They were never just a basketball team — They were a phenomenon. From the dusty courts of Casa de Imperium University to the roaring arenas of international basketball tournaments, the Castillian changed the meaning of competition. Five players, five stories, one unbreakable bond. Every pass, every fall, every victory carved their name deeper into basketball history. They weren’t the richest, the tallest, or the most disciplined— but they had the fire no system could teach. In a world where fame comes with betrayal, pressure kills passion, and every game could be your last, the Castillian stood as the symbol of brotherhood and defiance. Off the court, they were dreamers, lovers, and men chasing purpose. On the court, they were gods — lightning-fast, cold-blooded, and unstoppable. But the crown of champions is heavy. When glory starts to fade and personal lives collide with the sport that made them legends, how do heroes keep their faith in the game that’s slowly breaking them apart? Because behind every highlight, there’s heartbreak. And behind every champion, there’s a story no one dares to tell.

Guess she'll have to find a more willing partner ... only her new bodyguard is making it difficult for her to pay attention to anyone, but him.

Fifty years ago, rifts appeared in the world. These rifts spewed spirit beasts, ancient artifacts, and fragments of lost civilizations. The human race brought forth Talent Sigils and built guilds and families for survival. These families include one of the oldest awakened bloodlines, known as "The Long Clan," said to trace its lineage from the dragons of antiquity. However, rivalries also exist within great clans. His name is Long Hao, the son of a dwindling lineage family who is ridiculed for being the embarrassment of the clan. It is not impossible for people to believe that he has only mediocre talent because the clan already labels him as the failure who does not deserve the name dragon. But on the night before the awakening ceremony, there is a prohibited awakening within him. > [Eclipse System… Activating [Forbidden Talent Detected. Origin: Dragon-Eclipse Bloodline It seems that *Heaven’s Law* itself has made Long Hao wields forbidden talent, a skill feared not only by humans but also by the heavens. The day that follows, the Awakening Stone has no talent, and the world laughs at him. But Long Hao just smiled. When the first dungeon appears out of nowhere in his high school, chaos breaks out. "The trash of the Long Clan" emerges and displays power that shocks the city. He will overcome his destiny. Above the guilds. Above ancient clans. Beyond God's own command. A dragon ought to fly across the nine heavens, and he, named Long Hao, shall smash those who come to get in his way. A dragon should soar across the nine heavens— and Long Hao will shatter anyone who dares stand in his path.

Oaths fade. Contracts break. Only realms remain. Mo Zhen cultivates without shortcuts in a world where even lovers measure progress. As his companions grow stronger in different directions, loyalty becomes uncertain and rivalry unavoidable. The Dao does not judge intentions—only results.

He was once an ordinary high school student—until a sudden heart attack ended his life. Reborn as a Heavenly Immortal, he stood at the peak of all existence, mastering every Dao known to the heavens.

Gathering disciples fated to shake eras—heroes, villains, and monsters of destiny—he guides them along paths perfectly suited to their souls. Sword Gods who brew tea. Musicians who kill with sound.

Isabella was supposed to be sipping champagne at a luxury spa, not waking up in the middle of a forest. Worse, a SYSTEM had attached itself to her like some clingy ex, spouting nonsense about survival, quests, and—oh, hell no—manual labor. "System, I was NOT built for the wilderness! My ideal ‘roughing it’ experience involves a five-star hotel with bad WiFi!" Now, instead of lounging in silk robes, she’s being ordered to farm? To hunt? "A farming quest? You want me—a city girl—to grow food? System, I once killed a cactus by overwatering it. This is NOT my calling!" And don’t even get her started on the hygiene situation. "You want me to bathe in a cold river? Darling, I require warm water, scented oils, and an ambience! What do I look like—some barbarian?!" Unfortunately, the locals—big, muscular beastmen—don’t seem to understand the concept of self-care. The women? Neglecting their skin like it’s a crime to be radiant. The men? Walking hygiene disasters. "Ladies, if your man can smell you before he sees you, we have a problem." "You see this? This is lotion. It exists so you don’t look like a dried-up leaf. Use it." "A beard should be majestic, not tragic. Let me fix it." And the beastmen? They don’t just stare at her like she’s an oddity. No, they hover. They smirk. They lean in too close, fangs flashing with amusement. "Why do you keep looking at me like that?" she huffed, crossing her arms. The panther grinned, his tail flicking. "Because you’re fascinating when you’re annoyed." No, absolutely not. She was not here for this nonsense. "If you have time to stare, you have time to moisturize." She didn’t ask to be here. She didn’t ask to be their savior. But if she has to suffer through this world, she’s making everyone around her suffer less—through skincare, style, and some serious attitude. "If I hear one more ‘We don’t season our food here,’ I’m launching a war." "If you have time to gossip, you have time to do squats." "You want to impress a woman? Start with not smelling like the battlefield." Survival isn’t just about fighting monsters; it’s about looking good while doing it. So what if the System keeps throwing impossible quests her way? "What do you mean ‘you can’t skip quests’?! Since when?! Where is the skip button?! I demand a skip button!" But somewhere between dodging ridiculous quests and fixing these people’s tragic grooming habits, Isabella found herself in situations. Uncomfortable, heart-racing situations. Like being trapped against a tree by the red python, his red eyes half-lidded as he murmured, "You talk too much, little star. Should I silence you?" Like waking up with the lion lord’s fur-lined cloak draped over her shoulders, his deep voice gruff, "You shiver in your sleep. I’ll fix that." Like the phoenix watching her every move, his burning gaze searing into her skin as he mused, "You cause chaos wherever you go, but I find that I don’t mind." Oh, hell. No. She was not about to fall for four beastmen. She was too pretty for this much stress. "If you insult me again, I’ll make sure your soul needs a beauty upgrade." "I refuse to be disrespected by anyone who dresses like an unwashed tree branch." And yet, when a rival tribe came to challenge her, when danger lurked too close, those same beastmen stood beside her—smirking, taunting, fighting for her. "A beastman growled at me today. I growled back. He ran. I am the alpha now." Isabella isn’t just surviving. She’s thriving. And this world better keep up.

Serena Hartley is a witty college student working as a maid to pay her way while hiding talents that make her quietly formidable. When she meets Adrian Blackwood, the city’s cold and feared billionaire CEO, her sharp tongue, clever mind, and unexpected skills begin to challenge his every expectation. Amid college rivalries, social intrigue, and subtle revenge, sparks fly and walls crumble, but secrets and plot twists threaten to change everything.

Her childhood was forged in shadows, and she was sharpened into a weapon, trained to be a ghost, a killer—an instrument of vengeance. The target: a decorated general who brought down her family. But fate doesn't follow orders. Just as Lara was about to execute her long-planned mission, everything spiraled out of control. A military convoy intercepted her escape route—escorting none other than the general himself. And then came the moment that changed everything. A blinding crash. Screeching tires. Her body was thrown like a ragdoll, then darkness. She had a fleeting recollection of another world, another lifetime where kings ruled the land with an iron fist. But she woke up, and twelve long months had passed.  She did not know where she was or who she was. She remembered nothing. They told her different names. A child with trembling hope whispered, “Mommy, your name is Moira Torres.” Her doctor insisted, “Your admission slip says Larissa Reyes.” A hardened general leaned close and commanded, “Remember who you are. Remember your mission.” Then another general—dangerously calm, incredibly familiar—looked at her as if she mattered and asked, “Can I call you Lara?” The name unlocked something buried deep in her soul. Lara Norse Kromwel. Daughter of General Odin Norse. Empress of the First Empire. But the man who watched her most closely dismissed it with cold certainty. “This is the 21st century,” he said. “What nonsense are you spouting? What Empress? You are my woman. You can only be mine!"

But when the trail of clues leads to his own family, he realizes: This isn't a frame job. It's a promotion. The final test is choosing between the law he swore to uphold… and the empire he was born to inherit.

Any resemblance to real names, places, or events is coincidental. This is an extremely fast-paced novel, and the protagonist becomes absurdly overpowered. He is not the usual “hero complex” type. The villain and antihero tags are not for show. If you are looking for a “goody-two-shoes” protagonist, this novel is not for you. Kailen is a morally grey character. Note for Readers (Please do not skip): Early on, Kailen awakens with a shadow affinity. Yes—it may remind you of popular works you've read… but this is only the beginning. As the story progresses, he will unlock and master multiple affinities, each adding a unique blend to his path. The shadow affinity is a nod to some of my favorite novels, but the journey, characters, and world are entirely my own. Join the Community: Care to interact with me and other readers?
