   These are all ensemble pieces, pick any one, and each one is excellent. ① When the entire cultivation world turned against them, this team, known as "evil cultivators," exemplified what it means to "be the rule"—Xie Tinglan fought tooth and nail to set up an array, a sword-wielding girl's sword chilled fourteen provinces with a single strike, and a master of poison techniques effortlessly reduced enemy ships to ashes. The six stood back to back, facing a massive army, still chatting and laughing: "They call us vicious? Then let them see what true teamwork in protecting each other looks like." "Leave the left side to me." "Back row cleared." "Master is waiting for us to go back for dinner." This battle, they not only had to win, but they had to win beautifully—to make the entire cultivation world remember what a truly passionate ensemble piece looks like! ② The quality of "Seeking Songs with Wine" needs no introduction. (This is a lone wolf story, but the supporting characters are also very compelling.) ③ A heartwarming and healing campus ensemble piece. 🌻The English name for sunflower is sunflower, not because it faces the sun, but because its flower is inherently like the sun. They, and they, are inherently radiant like the sun. ④When transmigrated into a Mary Sue novel as a half-mermaid destined for a tragic death, Nolvia only wanted to graduate peacefully, but was forced to join the "villainous alliance." A mad witch with thorns wrapped around her fingertips, a succubus bewitching hearts with a smile, a duchess with a dripping sword, a puppeteer manipulating shadows, a wolf princess hiding a knife in her tears, and a mad prince igniting flames. This team, which gathered all the most dangerous characters in the book, was supposed to be the heroine's stepping stone. But when Nolvia saw the loneliness and pain in their eyes, everything quietly changed—she tore up the script and, with six "demon" teammates, defied fate. ⑤The fifth and sixth books are by the same author, both featuring ensemble casts. The fifth book is about national righteousness, showing how the national team intervenes to subdue the "chosen ones." The sixth book is a Xianxia (fantasy martial arts) infinite flow novel with a highly intelligent female protagonist. Li Fu declares, "I want... To fall from the heavens, where there is no difference between immortals and mortals!" ⑦ [No romance + ensemble cast] From Earth to interstellar space, the six always maintain their ruthless bandit style. The Guan Cang Hai Squad: The landscape is so beautiful, life is so dashing! A world invaded by demons, special talents, lost time, vanished ancestors... And the starry sea beyond the world. (If someone could cross thousands of miles of time to save you, that person would definitely be another version of yourself.) ⑧ (No romance + ensemble cast; divided, disaster strikes everywhere; united, world-ending crisis.) The squad's main mission: Save the world! Hidden achievement: Elbow the world! Code of conduct: As long as we elbow them fast, disaster will always be one step behind!

Professor Qi Yuan created it with a quantum computer, judging all sinners in the world. But right next to you, there is one person who doesn't cry out. She kneels on the coals, cups the face of a soul that has become a walking corpse, and kisses it. The soul calls out her name. With each kiss, she grows weaker. She is a prophet. This is the "Silent Stream." Pan Ye said: Once you enter the Silent Stream, everything from your life remains in the river of blood. But some refuse to forget, refuse to cry out, refuse to become beasts. They do the cleanest things in the dirtiest place in the underworld. And the person who created this underworld is now standing on the opposite bank of the river of blood, watching her kiss each one. He uses a quantum computer to judge all evil in the world—but he himself cannot even afford the price of a single kiss.

    Highly recommended! The female lead, male lead, and second female lead form a trio, a rare ensemble piece featuring two women and one man. However, there's no rivalry between the two women. The male lead isn't a lone wolf either; he's not domineering and has a very sunny personality. His attention isn't solely focused on the female lead. The daily interactions and playful banter between the three are quite lively. Importantly, the female lead relies on her intelligence, but not with overwhelming victories. She goes toe-to-toe with the villains, experiences the frustration of scheming only to have her plans backfire, and ultimately possesses the courage to regroup and turn the tide.
