Skyfire Avenue is one of the more interesting webnovels I've read recently. I'm heavily torn on whether to recommend it or not, because it's certainly not for everyone. The verbose descriptions of high-class culture, the excessive detail, and the focus on backstory and the past are very interesting. Skyfire Avenue has mechas and magic, and one of the more interesting settings I've seen in a novel. It is also, however, an incredibly slow burn, and it takes forever for power-ups, plot progression, and what have you to happen. I don't like going to deep into spoilers, but if you enjoy strong main characters and interesting worlds and worldbuilding, you might enjoy Skyfire Avenue, as it's more about what happens after the end of a long journey to power, than it is about getting there.
On a 5 point scale, Skyfire Avenue is a 3/5, possibly a 4 if it was cleaned up, sped up, and had a few more changes
+Incredibly cool setting
+Interesting main cast
+Well thought out fight scenes
+Quality prose
-Slow burning
-Lack of plot progression until late into the novel
-MC is already powered up, not much in terms of power progression
