Global Awakening: I’m the Only One Ready is a popular novel that blends Action, Fantasy, Xuanhuan and more. Written by the author Soaring Upward. 118 chapters have been translated, and translation of other chapters is in progress.

Synopsis

When Lu Yuan woke up, he found himself ten years in the past.

Lu Yuan then made the choice no one understood.

He liquidated his family fortune, dumped billions into “worthless” relics, and earned the title of the biggest idiot heir alive.

But no one knew that three months later, the Global Awakening would arrive. Humanity would evolve. Alien horrors would invade. And cash? Just colored paper.

Armed with knowledge of the next decade, Lu Yuan began his insane preparations. He spent billions to claim treasures no one else valued: the ancient Bodhi Tree that granted billionfold talent; the complete Dao De Jing; a farmland where a landed meteorite held a celestial sword embryo.

The world mocked him as a prodigal heir. The antique world whispered about a mysterious buyer.

The world laughed at him until the Awakening came. Then they trembled. Lu Yuan was invincible across the earth.

Beneath immortals, none can defeat me. Before immortals, I’ll trade life for life.

Editor's Note

💡 This is the definition of "Fast Food Slop." It takes every single regression and "Global Awakening" trope and cranks them to 11. It's designed for readers who want to see a protagonist dominate everything with zero effort. However, be warned: the logic is paper-thin, the MC has "information from his ass," and the author frequently forgets their own rules. Read this only if you want to turn your brain completely off and watch someone play a game with all the cheat codes enabled.

Experience Curve

Volume 1: The Liquidation Stage (Ch. 1–30): ⭐⭐⭐ – The Preparation. This is the "Wealth to Power" phase. Watching the MC transform billions of dollars into "worthless" artifacts is satisfying. It captures the classic Chinese Xianxia trope of collecting treasures before the storm.

Volume 2: The Awakening Stage (Ch. 31–80): ⭐⭐ – The Face-Slapping. Once the world changes, the MC starts humiliating the "genius" heirs of wealthy families. The power gap is so wide that it feels like a god fighting toddlers.

Volume 3: The Sovereign Stage (Ch. 81–118+): ⭐ – The Repetitive Loop. The story enters a typical "filler" cycle. The MC gets a power-up, a minor villain insults him, the MC kills them, and the cycle repeats with massive word-padding and constant "billionfold talent" reminders.

WebNovelDB Review

4 /10

A low-effort power fantasy plagued by plot holes and repetitive prose. The Good: Pure Catharsis. If you enjoy "Face-Slapping" (humiliating arrogant rivals) and watching a protagonist acquire legendary items like the Bodhi Tree or the Dao De Jing, the first few chapters deliver high-octane wish fulfillment. The Bad: Internal Inconsistency. The author frequently loses track of time (the "1 month left" countdown fluctuates randomly). Even worse, the MC was a "nobody" in his past life, yet somehow knows the exact locations, activation methods, and secret timing for every top-tier artifact in the world—knowledge he shouldn't logically possess. The AI-Style Writing: Multiple reviewers have noted that the prose feels like "AI Slop"—it repeats long-winded explanations and descriptions almost verbatim in every chapter to increase the length without adding substance. For Fans Of: Solo Leveling (but much lower quality), Past Life Returner (finance/prep focus), "I am the only one who knows the truth" tropes. Not For You If: You value logic. If a protagonist being "levels ahead of the final boss" on Day 1 bores you, or if you can't stand characters with "room temperature IQ," avoid this at all costs.
