   Books 2 and 4 are by the same author and are truly amazing. I highly recommend book 1; who wouldn't love a group of passionate, patriotic young people? The last book, "Superb Friendship," is a bit controversial in the beginning, but it gets really good in the middle and later parts, especially the latter. However, it must be admitted that there are some logical flaws in the early chapters, but these flaws don't detract from its overall excellence.

    This book truly fits the criteria, as follows: 1. It's an ensemble piece; each member of the main character group has a distinct role, and their abilities are unique. There's no female lead; initially, there might be one who seems similar, but that role is quickly discontinued. The male lead has a younger sister, but only he can see her, similar to the sister in *Red Moon*. 2. The genre is the infinite flow, a supernatural tale with rules, and each instance is highly meaningful. 3. Most of the main characters are the protagonist's roommates or very close friends, and their dialogues are very interesting. 4. The protagonist experiences a transformation from unofficial to pretending to be official, and then back to official, but without feeling constrained. Furthermore, the protagonist isn't a saint or invincible; if you're looking for a purely wish-fulfillment story, this is not recommended.

    The first ensemble novel is a micro-ensemble piece, but it's exceptionally good. The second is by Qian Xiao, with excellent writing, also an ensemble piece. The third is a micro-ensemble piece, but interesting, with a romantic pairing, intelligent characters, and strong male and female leads. "Yan Yu Lou" needs no introduction; the protagonist is born with blocked meridians but works his way up step by step. It's not a farming or cultivation novel. Although long, the fact that I've followed it to over 3000 chapters proves its quality. "Pi Fu Jia Dao" is a must-read, even better than "Shi Ri" in my opinion. It's an ensemble piece set in an academy, sweet yet poignant, with a single female lead. It's the "pretending to be weak while actually being strong" type, full of witty moments. Initially, the roommates aren't very important; the protagonist is intelligent and has a powerful background, which is revealed later. It's not a wish-fulfillment novel; it combines an academy setting with superpowers, making it incredibly rich in content. "Lie Neng Zhe" is by Peng Pai; I feel it's short, haha, but very interesting. I really want to read the sequel, but it's unlikely. The ensemble piece *Mysterious Beast City* needs no introduction; it's still thrilling and quite gritty, but I don't think it's just for the sake of gritty. At first, you might feel there's too much grittyness, even harboring some resentment, but after finishing it, you'll find it well-written, particularly relatable, and rich in content. The ensemble piece *Dark River Chronicles* is quite good; it's already been adapted into a film, featuring a single female lead, and there should be a sequel, which I'm really looking forward to. It's an ensemble piece, related to the Dark River Organization and the Northern Dynasty, all by the same author and also very good. *Ninth Special Zone*, though from a while ago, is really good; it's an ensemble piece, just with too many chapters, haha. I think the writing style is decent, the language is powerful and relatable. *Replica Mirror* is a book by 39, arguably 39's favorite; I think it's very good. *Gouchen Academy* is particularly rich in content; I want to read it again.

They are crossover anime. 3. The protagonist is a random passerby. The main character group has 10 people, each with their own strengths. 4. AOTU World, 12 people, very good...
