Something like "The Blood of Youth": an ensemble story where every character has their own distinct personality. Not too much romance, though there can be some. It just shouldn't take up half the book.

The long street was eerily noisy and chaotic. A butcher, wielding a cleaver, swiftly sliced through bone; an old woman selling embroidered shoes tried to make candles with a needle, but to no avail; and an oil seller, with eighteen swords hidden in his sleeve, always gazed at the steamed bun shop across the street, at the beautiful Xi Shi who could tear open nine faces with a single stroke. At the end of the street stood the Donggui Tavern, where a young boy brewed wine—and that boy was truly just a brewer. He had twelve cups of wine, but no one came to drink. The tavern was always occupied by a drunken man in white, swaying back and forth with a long spear. He said he wanted to buy a horse, take his wine, and ride off into the spring breeze—drunk and carefree.

It feels like the potatoes are being marinated in Jin Yong and Gu Long's style... This book's approach to the martial arts world is quite novel. Although there are systems that engage in silly antics, they are mostly interspersed within the heavily tragic drama to adjust the mood. A forum-style, no-CP, ensemble martial arts world, group transmigration—what do you think transmigration should be like? Using cheat codes and golden fingers to reach the pinnacle of life, becoming a super-powerful novel? Then they encounter a ruthless system that can sit at the same table as Cupid but can get them hanging from a lamppost in a minute. Cheat codes? Existing~ The points required are only dozens of times more than going home~ No problem, our stuff is expensive, but you earn fewer points~ Faced with a system task that starts in hell, a group of transmigrators, in order to survive, start acting out their own stories in the martial arts world. What do you think the martial arts world is like? Perhaps it's the wish of a suicide soldier, a past buried in dust, a group of forgotten youths, a guilt that can't be let go even after ten years; it could be a proud daughter who can no longer wield a sword, or a sorrowful girl who has fallen into the abyss yet still yearns for the past; it could be a lotus burning brightly in the fire, its righteousness immortal. They are not heroes; the author doesn't even emphasize their identities—storytellers, orphans, orphans, suicide soldiers… Even ordinary people have their own heroes. Then, the following is an explanation of the many negative comments that appeared in the book reviews. (PS: In this book, transmigrators die, but are reincarnated through a card draw. Currently, only characters 3 and 4 haven't died; the rest have died countless times. This is a significant plot point, mentioned in the psychological counseling section of Volume 4, Chapter 5. The system is definitely not a cheat code. In fact, the system might even become the main villain. Anyway, the system is not a good thing. Transmigrators don't have their own names; dying too many times will change their identities, making them unrecognizable. They are addressed by their serial numbers. The death and reincarnation mechanism in this book is a major trope, so be prepared. This is a passionate martial arts world, and the book is a bit slow-paced. The first few chapters might be a little confusing, but you'll understand when you reach the offline meeting of characters 2 and 4. Because it's an ensemble piece, Huai Han is just an entry point; the later plot will be halved. Please understand the book's focus: transmigrators helping each other. Please have high expectations for the new transmigrators appearing in Volume 2. I know Volume 1 was truly amazing, but the other transmigrators who appear later are also great. The author will develop them gradually, so please be patient.) Please stop bringing up the male-to-female ratio issue. Please don't be superficial. The author genuinely respects women and is very skilled at creating female characters. The author provides reasonable explanations for certain questions later on. Reading this book requires patience; if you abandon it halfway through, you'll miss the explanations [especially regarding the character of Number 3!! Please stop criticizing our poor Number 3...]. If you don't have the patience to finish reading and then leave random comments, please don't give it a bad review. We can't help you in emergencies...
