   I've been reading these three books recently. The first one is a new book, but it's quite good. I hope the author updates it more often.

   This is an incredibly good read! No romance, focused solely on career advancement—a true female-centric power fantasy. The protagonist initially transmigrates to a strange world, only wanting to survive, but later assists in the awakening of female consciousness. She establishes a girls' academy, emphasizing the training of women in various skills. She climbs the ranks from a low-ranking official position, enabling women to participate in imperial examinations and become officials. The female lead is surrounded by many capable people, almost 90% of whom are women. These are mostly rural women from the village, and the best students in the girls' academy are all nurtured by her. The female lead has a daily check-in system, but she only checks in seven or eight times throughout the entire story, each time receiving either a seed or a blueprint—not a particularly powerful cheat.
