Synopsis :

I am Lin Fan and I've become a jack of all trades just because of a powerful Encyclopedia.

In the first ever competition organised for trolls, all the other contestants lost. The crowd exclaimed, "Brother, you're so good at trolling."

Lin Fan replied, "But I've never been trolling…"

POSITIVE REVIEW :

Interesting plot concept where the main character gets a random encyclopedia system that gives really random skill set and rewards, which drives the direction of what the protagonist would do next. It's a fun to read (addictive really) but the ending was an extreme disappointment (rushed ending for some reason while the story could have continued developing).

Heads up warning for potential readers:

romance is really not there. It may seem like a harem with cute interactions, but the protagonist lacks commitment so nothing really develops (til the end time skip which really does not explain much).

Do not expect much logical reasoning behind the system, or explaining of why he gets it even.

Martial arts, yes but lacks the adequate action to make this an action pack novel, and never transition to that cultivation kind of novel either (unless you consider alchemy and Nicolas the dog).

Take medical part with a grain of salt.

Some prejudice (nothing extreme, and it's against Japan and Korea) for short term antagonist.

Attacks key social issues in china (child trafficking, business/gov corruption, etc.), which is interesting.

NEGATIVE REVIEW :

Much like "I'm Really a Superstar" this is just another generic face slapping power fantasy with an unpleasant/low class main character - only less funny/interesting.

Additionally just a bit of fair warning: You won't be able to enjoy this unless you can enjoy "traditional" Chinese bullsh*t as the entire second arc is based on face slapping anyone who doesn't believe in Chinese fortune telling.
