    This genre is unbeatable! It's a superb story of cultivation, daily life, campus romance, and dual rebirth (with significant differences between the two rebirths). The original male lead is reborn and attempts to return to the peak of his career, while the new male lead returns from cultivation seeking only quiet immortality. The protagonists are aloof but decisive, with strong moral values, and the romance is quite good. It can be enjoyed as a sweet read.
