About this listen

In a world of titans, where Martial Artists reign supreme, Roy is wholly unremarkable. Without the power to channel the Essence of the world, he is weak and defenseless. Adopted into the Shah clan after his parents' deaths, he is forced to do menial labor day after day, all while enduring the ridicule and physical abuse of his supposed family.

Weakness is punishable by death in Buryoku and in the Shah clan, there is no one weaker than Roy. But even the weak can rise up, when pushed to the brink…

This genuinely a good read but i really have an issue with book 3

It seemed to happen to the authors other books, but when the love interest is jealous or in distress they seem to blow up at the main character being completely rude an unfair, then they get over it and everything is back to normal when the main character got their feelings hurt, but they never actually apologize or feel bad for blowing up on them for no reason or the genuine hurt they caused, they act like they did nothing wrong and after a long relationship of this happening to me, i really want there to be some consequences for the love interest for hurting the mc's feeling like that, but thats really just my pet peeve, by all means this is a great series i just hate it when books do that

Blatant Rip-off

I have found Buryoku to be a rip off of a much more popular book in the same genre. Typically, this can be excused as the genre takes a lot of ideas from other novels in cultivation style books. However, this is a much worse version of that novel. The narrator does an okay job with a few characters, but the main narrating voice is not one that I like at all.
