   Historically, the biography of Lu Yu describes him as follows: Lu Yu, courtesy name Hui, was a native of Jinling. He was handsome and intelligent from a young age, able to memorize what he read after a single reading and compose essays instantly. His complexion was radiant, and he appeared like a celestial being. At sixteen, he achieved first place in the provincial examination, becoming the top scholar. The following year, he achieved first place in the metropolitan examination, becoming the top scholar. In the palace examination, the emperor personally selected him as the top scholar, making him the top scholar in the imperial examination. This triple achievement of achieving the highest honors was unprecedented in the dynasty. The emperor, seeing his elegant and refined appearance, was greatly pleased and bestowed upon him the title "Immortal of the Moon and Willow." At that time, a princess was waiting to be married in the palace. Hearing of Lu Yu's talent and appearance, she admired him and wished to make him her husband. The emperor was also interested and sent someone to subtly probe Lu Yu's intentions. Lu Yu firmly declined, saying, "I am of humble origin and dare not disgrace the imperial family." The princess was displeased upon hearing this. The emperor was also angry at her lack of appreciation and ordered her to be flogged. However, admiring his talent, he could not bear to punish him severely and only gave him a few strokes of the cane.

   The female lead is proud but never loses!! Everyone, regardless of age, gender, or even enemy, loves her [cross-dressing + universally adored + 1vN]. Xia Xingyang was originally in the tense and exciting senior year of high school when a bolt of lightning struck her and transported her to the world of cultivation, bringing with her a seemingly useless but very useful little system. "What did you say I am?" "Female supporting character." The little system was hit by Xia Xingyang's fist. "Say it again!" "Okay, from now on you are the female lead." The little system jumped onto Xia Xingyang's head, looking aggrieved. "Good boy~" The aloof and abstinent master said, "From now on, you will be my last disciple. Remember to be single-minded in your pursuit of the Dao and not be swayed by love." Later, "We are not master and disciple, after all, my last disciple is a man." The alluring and seductive demon lord said, "Your personality doesn't seem like that of a pure righteous person. Why don't you join my sect instead?" Later, "Everyone says that the demon race is utterly wicked. If you want to come, I'm unwilling." The eldest brother of the dragon prince said, "I am different from those lustful dragons. I disdain gold and jewels." Later, "In my eyes, you are the only radiant being, different from those inanimate objects." The female lead said, "I'm determined to have this throne." Later, "I'm not interested in the throne, but if you want to take it, I have one condition: I must vet your consort." The empress said, "My biggest interest in this throne is your sister. Perhaps you should be sensible." Later, "No one is more suitable for this position than you, but I must vet your consort." The aloof and stunningly beautiful Imperial Advisor said, "The fate of the world trembles; you bear full responsibility."
