   A group portrait, when younger prodigies meet their predecessors. The beginning is okay, but the later parts are definitely a group portrait. The title doesn't seem like a group portrait, but trust me, read it. Around chapter 338, there's the part about the time travel, which I really enjoyed. The list of young prodigies has 21 more people, which is quite a shock to the older generation. I saw no one recommending it, so I'm recommending it. The later parts are simply dazzling with stars! (Crazy crawling) No one can be missing. The female lead is amazing, and any one of them is excellent on their own. I'm so envious of the fourth senior brother, Gu Qianche's, liveliness, and his like-minded brothers. My God, the author is simply amazing! Don't be intimidated by the fantasy romance tags, and don't think you can't read it. Give it a try, it doesn't really matter. The author's writing is exceptionally good with very few typos. Heaven knows I dream about this group of people getting together again at night, laughing and chatting, recording other aspects with a recording stone. I love it!!! I recommend it, check it out, it's very good.
