    I started reading the Republican era section from chapter 165, and it was really good. The college student part is no joke, there's no romantic pairing, and the system runs away at the beginning, so it's all about the female lead's own struggles. It's very down-to-earth, and she's incredibly good at hiding and disguising herself, managing to survive until the very end. The female lead is actually an older woman; it's a story of a small person slowly becoming a big shot. The author's portrayal of ordinary people is superb, the writing style is delicate yet lighthearted, and the plot is unique—completely different from those stories with overly powerful, arrogant characters who are constantly showing off and getting their faces slapped. I was moved to tears by the end. Of course, there are minor flaws, but overall, they don't detract from the overall excellence.
