    The first book not only has a novel theme, but the author also vividly portrays the protagonist, Chen Zhuo. Before having a system, Chen Zhuo was a lonely cave demon; with the system, he became the planet's most valiant warrior. The second book has excellent character development, background, and theme. It includes many aspects of human relationships, love, and hate. The author didn't portray the protagonist, Xiang Que, as an invincible, overpowered character from the start, but rather guides him step by step, overcoming obstacles to rise from a mortal to a Celestial Emperor, ultimately breaking through the heavens. The third book features a carefree, irresponsible protagonist with a quirky and humorous personality, possessing considerable strength.
