Hi, I am looking for progression novels without the MC possessing cheats.
I understand that authors give out the to make sure the MC kicks ass from the beginning, but it takes away all the tension for me.
For example 1000 li is a wuxia novel, where the MC is not given any Bloodline, Status screen, divine item or something similar.
Similar in litrpg the characters often get something like, first achievements or I fall on my face and I got a 99 % physical resistance skill for it, others do not get because reasons.
Another example I can think of is Hunter X Hunter.
Edit: I don't mind it being litrpg, wuxia or others.
