   Highly recommend! This novel is truly amazing, so incredibly good! I don't even know how to express how amazing it is (this is just my opinion). You absolutely must try it! The story has a tight, fast-paced rhythm that keeps you entertained from beginning to end. It's a "cool" novel, and it truly delivers, providing enjoyment from start to finish. However, it doesn't leave you feeling bored. The author has mastered the art of delivering that enjoyment perfectly, avoiding any sense of excess or deficiency. The plot is perfectly timed. I think it's a masterpiece! [Sparrow's Masterpiece][Sparrow's Masterpiece] 🥰🥰 This is a dual-male protagonist novel, but it primarily focuses on the career of the main character, Lin. The romance between Lin and Mu unfolds naturally, with them supporting and redeeming each other. They always trust each other, never betray each other, and will always stand by each other's side. The romance in the story spans about 100 pages. They start by liking each other, and initially interact as close friends (this is Lin's approach, but Mu's is purely liking and love from the beginning). The latter part of the book focuses on Lin's career, so it leans slightly towards a group romance, but only a little. Also, I think the author writes exceptionally well. The beginning leaves you with many questions and plot holes, but I feel they are all resolved later. The ending is very complete, and I think it's the most tear-jerking moment in the entire story—it's incredibly moving 🥺🥺, especially the final cycle of failures, and the last time, when I cried so much ૮₍ɵ̷ɵ̷̥̥᷅₎ა.

    The first one is highly recommended; it combines humor with an ensemble cast, and the supporting characters are all incredibly intelligent, almost as if they're afraid the protagonist won't be able to keep up. The second one is a coming-of-age story, without a system or anything like that, and it's also an intelligence-based story. The male protagonist is extremely intelligent, although his intelligence seems a bit unrealistic, but it's all explained. The third one has a very fresh theme; if you're looking for something to read, check out the fourth one. Those who know, know—it's a great ensemble piece and very mind-bending.

    I rarely finish a book, but these two are definitely top-tier. You can see from my reading time that they were selected by Bao Yanxuan. They're truly ensemble pieces; in the first book, each member of the protagonist's team has their own unique charm. At first, I thought they were a bit cheesy, but after reading a few dozen chapters, you'll find the scenes and plot are incredibly grand. Highly recommended!

    😎The first book features a decisive and intelligent male protagonist who makes those who harm him pay the price, yet he's not a saint and offends people, causing their entire families to disappear. I'm currently reading it and highly recommend it [fear]. The second book features a male protagonist with a natural ability to attract ghosts, like Tang Sanzang from "Journey to the West"—eating him grants immortality. The protagonist is indignant, questioning why "I" am destined for misery, and vowing to fight against fate. I personally think it's best not to read this late at night; it's a bit eerie.

"What wine would you like, sir? The Red Osmanthus Wine is sold out. Only this peach blossom wine from a foreign land can soothe a thousand sorrows." The waiter bows and hands over the wine, unaware that this jar of "foreign wine" is the protagonist Gu Yusheng's lifelong obsession—his three greatest loves in life: his wife who has not returned, the broken Qingping Sword, and the peach blossom wine from his hometown. ⚔️ With a single sword, he cuts through the cage, venturing alone into the petty schemes of the great world and the small mystical realm, the conspiracies of the three holy lands, the stain on his father's reputation… Gu Yusheng, carrying a sword and a wine, breaks through the boundaries and enters the vast world!

    Li Chang'an closed his eyes, his body slowly rising into the air. As he ascended, he gripped his longsword with both hands. A faint blue light emanated from the blade. Li Chang'an raised the sword above his head, its tip pointing directly at the sky. This was the perfect opportunity for a sneak attack. Against any other opponent, Hong Yuan would have attacked without hesitation. But as mentioned before, Li Chang'an was a righteous gentleman. He had repeatedly held back against him, displaying noble character amidst the vast mountains and mighty rivers! Therefore, Hong Yuan didn't want to ambush him; this was a matter of principle. However, Hong Yuan's principles were flexible. When dealing with bad people and villains, his standards would be lowered. Initially, only the tip of the longsword held high by Li Chang'an glowed with a hint of blue light. But as he channeled his spiritual energy, countless tiny streams of light emerged from within him. These tiny streams of light floated on the mountaintop, like a galaxy cascading down to earth. These tadpole-like streams of light coiled around the sword and then converged at its tip. Tiny streams of light converged at the tip of the sword, making the light at the tip increasingly bright, until finally it shone brilliantly.
