Side Characters

#1
Can anybody suggest some novels similar to Undefeated God of War (NU), World of Cultivation(NU)  I'm new to this site so I don't really know some in RRL
So the points in these novels that im really a sucker foe are. 
-The mc isn't the best at everything and there are other people who are filling those voids for him. 
-The characters aren't forgotten after a single arc.
-Adventure type of novel?

Additionally if there is army building / world building like I am the Monarch it would be nice.

PS. Please state if its Harem or not.

Have you read The Avalon of Five Elements? I think that the sequel to World of Cultivation. I also liked Absolute Choice. But those novels are on the qidian site lol.

I'm new on RRL too, so I haven't read as many stories yet. But The Gam3 was really good and I'm starting to read Savage Divinity, which might be more along the route of World of Cultivation.
Please, check out my game-element, fantasy novel: CENTIFIRE

If you are new on RRL, you can always start with Andurs novels (Andur is an author on RRL), especially if you like OP main characters (maybe they are more OP than what you're looking for). He doesn't use the tropes as a lot of the translated novels on NU, but he kinda has his own tropes (you'll notice after reading some of his ficitions). His novels are very solid entertainment: Well written, enganging and fun. The newest one is Body and Soul, the only one with a female MC. I liked Law of Shadows as well, though that one is set in the present and is more of a magic/supernatural thing.

I'll join Rainli in recommending Savage Divinity. It's so much fun and does a lot of things you find in transmigration novels really well and with a twist. It's definitely worth a read. Though Rain (the MC) is strong and very talented he is not THE strongest, the reader has to watch him grow. He does excel at most things, but has his limits and areas he can't do well (like any other person).

the red lands, fit perfectly with making his own group to help in his short coming. The MC also intends to build his own empire, though he start with nothing

Reborn : apocalypse


Towers of heaven


Insania online maybe? The MC does'nt help the side characters but they have a very strong presence.

I haven't read the stories that you're looking for something similar to, so I can't say if you'll have any interest or not, but if a well developed cast of characters is what you're looking for, my story, In the Shadow of Heaven, might fit the bill for you. Strong characterization is something that I have been praised for fairly consistently. 
Check out my story, In the Shadow of Heaven  - a space opera about ruling an evil empire. 2k+ pages, f/f romance, updates often.

Both my work s are about teamwork and togetherness 
Here's the blurb. It follows three characters who are childhood friends

Three young friends try to make their way together, through the dog-eat-dog cultivation world of the jianghu -- and even worse, their teens!.
They have chosen to take the path less travelled, by rising as a single entity -- of three entirely separate individual people -- The Thundering Tortoise Trio!
Along their merry, yet sometimes scary, way, Jian ChengFatty Li Feng and Fairy Fen Ling will forsake their own petty selfishness, their hateful overbearing sect, conventional cultivation wisdom and even the entire righteous path, for the family they have become... And for benefits of course!
After all, everyone loves benefits!
Join these three friends with benefits (*we're not changing the title though...), as they probably overcome every obstacle (* but no promises) to bravely forge their own future!
