Better understanding of physics. Because I always try to explain wuxia phenomena in terms of physics laws.

[strife_au]

Better understanding of Chinese history .. in a way

[druid]

Improving my chinese! In fact beginning to like the language with each passing novel that I complete reading.

Chinese language
Chinese Culture and Values (esp of past)
History

I am pretty proud to be a Chinese after reading wuxia
Appreciation of my heritage.

HR, ZM and some of GL's character teached a lot about trickery, taking advantage, thinking steps ahead etc.

And getting smart to people in chinese (not sure if this is a good thing).

[Candide]

I'm so similar to many pretty and smart nuxia.

There is always hope, even if I fall down a cliff.

Respecting the elders, especially cranky and eccentric ones may turn me into superman.

Stalking and drugging girls work.

Arguing with everyone here is fun.

Everyone buys my BS.

I think I can know "people" in reading wuxia. You can read people more effectively as wuxia novels seem to contain so many styles of people, good, bad, fake, etc.

I guess I just like Wuxia. Wuxia teaches a bit of history, have many twists (some novels), interesting, kills time, and I enjoy it. I don't care I gain anything or not since I enjoy it.

Learned that love and greed drives people around. Becomes more open-minded and broard-minded after reading more of wuxia and wuxia. And nothing is more fun than life itself.

Eh I was asking about positives. But you are right, have to stop daydreaming about XL18Z cars passing by.
