The grand lord is a cultivation series where the story starts halfway through a competition arc and Main character kills 30+ people with his overpowered talisman. The only way to use his powers is to piss him off which is a mediocre nerf to his powers. He is banished back to his village to try regain the privilege to take the great academies test again so he grinds his levels and destroys everyone. He makes it to the top of his village but when he gets into the test, some outsiders chase his white hair waifu and pisses him off. Long story short, he getsin trouble with the blood sect and one of the bigger families wants the power to reunite the world under his family so he uses the power of the devil and it fails when MC destroys him. That's it, you don't need to watch this show because its not entertaining.

The animation is pretty good for a small-scale 2D donghua but that's it, if you're into high budget flashy hair physics this isn't the right series. Nor if you are interested in the engineered sound design with different variable chords.

The characters are lackluster and don't contribute to development at all. The whole point of the series wasn't to cultivate or to get into the powerful great academy but instead to fight a smallfry family elder who was afraid of death and clings to life ironically getting killed after clinging to life for a long time.
