   Keep it low-key, Class 8 has arrived! No applause needed, just screams! The first book is quite good. The second is an infinite flow novel with a strong female lead and no romantic pairing. The third is about the fate of the nation; the protagonist is from a theatrical troupe. "I am the captain of the first ascension team of the Midsummer Era. In this prosperous age, in the summer of China, may the dragon soar over China, and may the whole nation ascend!" The fourth book is highly recommended; it's incredibly good, and almost everyone in the team has some connection to disaster.

    It's incredibly good, just too short. All five characters, without any romantic pairings, are very interesting. Two are sword cultivators, one is a divination cultivator, one is a talisman cultivator, and one is a healer. It's truly exceptional. Que Cishen is a lazy sword cultivator with a lightning spiritual root, but incredibly powerful. Tian Zaishui is a sickly divination cultivator, constantly on guard against the wrath of Heaven. Wen Jinglan is a talisman cultivator who doesn't play by the rules; while everyone else diligently draws talismans, he constantly innovates. Cui Yuji is a healer who can turn a medicine hoe into a giant scythe; cold-faced but kind-hearted. Yan Fengqiu is a pure sword fanatic. When Que Cishen gives an idea, the others immediately think about how to implement it, instead of questioning it. It's incredibly heartwarming.

    Watching this kind of protagonist after working overtime is more satisfying than watching someone born omnipotent. The downsides are also obvious: ordinary people in the academy are severely bullied, and the power imbalance isn't just a background element.

    Reader note

    Regarding the writing style, you can first read the author's book reviews, or even confide in them, whether you're a reader or not. The evocative passages in the [Individual Chapters] that reflect the characters' emotional ups and downs are worth reading, and can be interpreted in multiple ways when combined with the [Main Story]. It's a niche, semi-tranquil ensemble piece with a rotating setting, original content, everyday adventures, and interweaving reality with fiction.
