    This one! It's amazing! A must-read among historical fiction! The female lead is vengeful; she doesn't mess with others unless provoked, and if someone does, she'll get revenge. No one, big or small, can beat her. She's at the pinnacle of martial arts prowess, and if she doesn't like someone, she'll just slap them across the face. She's also incredibly good at playing the role of a scheming, manipulative woman. The author's language is incredibly humorous, with apt metaphors that make for a very light and funny read. I often couldn't help but laugh out loud while reading, and my friends thought I was going crazy, hahaha!

    1️⃣ This is a female-centric, no-romance story, arguably top-tier. The female characters shine, and the author meticulously crafts almost all the main characters to be women. The world rulers/leaders of each world are also predominantly female. Even the villains possess their own unique charm. Everyone is well-rounded, not simply black and white. I initially struggled to continue reading (because I personally dislike rebirth stories), but I was truly moved when I saw Su Yitong (who is arguably the villain) respond to her father's question, "Wasn't I good enough to you?" With the reply, "Not enough." (Chapter 164). From the tower onward, the book gets better and better; I've read it countless times. 2️⃣ This is a female-centric, no-romance story with a main cast of four girls. The author excels at foreshadowing, connecting several storylines. While the female lead's character might seem a bit odd in the early chapters (a bit infatuated), this disappears completely later! All the characters are intelligent and well-developed. 3️⃣ A Western fantasy ensemble piece, enjoyable but the author has stopped updating. The main characters are predominantly male. 4. A slice-of-life story, the kind that's simple and uneventful, featuring a female lead and a group of adorable animals. However, perhaps due to a common flaw in this genre, there are some angst later on. 5. The highlights are almost entirely focused on the female lead. She doesn't suffer any injustice, doesn't hold back, and takes revenge without hesitation—very satisfying. One thing to avoid is that the female lead's confidence isn't solely based on herself, but also on the power of her twelve fathers. These fathers are incredibly influential, allowing the female lead to act without restraint. 6. Also, the highlights are mostly focused on the female lead, mainly involving her seeking various masters. The plot becomes somewhat formulaic towards the end.
