   Reader note

   A new book, featuring an ensemble cast, a slow burn, and a protagonist who grows through experience. Set in a fictional world, the slice-of-life scenes are heartwarming and sweet, with no angst. The main characters' romance is GL & BG. This is a world corrupted by alien spirits, a civilizational catastrophe that evolves alongside civilization. Spirit Masters are warriors who fight against these spirits, dedicating their lives to this cause. Spirit Masters are a type of Spirit Master, possessing 12 elemental elements: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, ice, lightning, wind, light, darkness, and healing. Spirit Masters initially awaken with a guaranteed base of 5 elemental elements: metal, wood, water, fire, earth. The system also utilizes both elemental spiritual power and stellar spiritual power. In this world, women generally have higher resistance to supernatural beings than men, so female spirit masters make up a larger proportion and tend to follow the elemental body or spell-based paths. Men, due to their physical structure, generally have better constitutions than women and tend to follow the body cultivation path. The main character, Chen Xia, has light blue hair and is a genius student who awakened as a spirit master at the age of 14. She possesses the star energy "Creation" and primarily uses a long sword. She has been trained since childhood and is incredibly strong. Her childhood friend, Bai Yuan, has orange hair and is a lively ranged genius, proficient in various ranged attacks and seemingly able to see a person's fortune? The neighbor's older sister, Cheng Yan, has purple hair and prefers dual-wielding short swords. She is gentle but not soft-hearted. The neighbor's younger brother, Cheng Nian, has purple hair and is male but possesses extremely high spell-based talent. Shi Su, the top student in the academically weak class at the liberal arts school, has dark blue hair and claims to have the mind of thousands of years. He can fly on a sword and seems capable of anything. Ye Heng, the "Tyson" of the liberal arts school, has white hair and a cold face… wait, why are you using a baseball bat? Coffin guy… Okay, you can lie down first. Besides the main characters, the supporting characters are also outstanding in their own way. Luo Xingya, the captain of the 7th Squad of the 35th generation, is a peerless genius who is ranked third in the world at the young age of 27 and is the idol of many people. Qin Lingxiao, the vice captain of the 7th Squad of the 35th generation...

    Ah!!! Highly recommend!!! I personally feel the author has captured the youthful spirit of the characters exceptionally well. For example, from the very first chapter, the author emphasizes their unwillingness to fall behind and their relentless pursuit of advancement. Later, Qingzhi and Ming'an's homesickness reminded me of how they left home at only 15 or 16 to embark on their cultivation journey. Another touching point was that Qingzhi and Ming'an were left behind, and Jianyue and Weiyu also voluntarily stayed to continue practicing their swordsmanship. Anyway, I found those aspects very appealing. Although it's not finished yet, it's a new story.

    All of them are super good! I've always loved ensemble dramas, especially those with such positive values. The first four are by the same author and are all excellent, with great themes, though they all have some angst later on (the first one is okay). I can't live without this author when it comes to ensemble dramas. I highly recommend the fifth one; the female lead is a very intelligent and cheerful person. I learned a lot about interpersonal relationships from this book. It's very good and almost finished. The sixth one is also about a junior sister, but it's different from the usual ones. This one is super funny, full of jokes, guaranteed to make you laugh non-stop. The seventh and eighth are by the same author; one female lead is righteous to the point of being wicked, and the other is wicked to the point of being righteous. The ninth one is the second interstellar novel I've read with a different plot than the one about smashing pots (the first one is 3). It's very good. The tenth book is very original, although some things felt a bit unwritten, but I still highly recommend it. The eleventh book is a very good cultivation novel with many plot twists and many superb sentences. The twelfth book is very good; although the formula is old, the plot is good and fresh, with many exciting moments later on. I cried so much when I read it. The thirteenth book made me cry from beginning to end; the plot is super fresh, with many twists and turns, and it's very good. The fourteenth book features a group of people supporting each other and growing together, a great ensemble piece, and it's also very touching. The fifteenth book is a sweet novel, probably one of the four favorites; all the characters are super cute, but the female lead's background is heartbreaking. The sixteenth book also has a fresh plot. I'm not an art student, so I don't know if there are any plot errors, but it's very good. The romance between the male and female leads is very sweet, and the reflections and redemption of the supporting characters are also very good.
