    This is an ensemble piece. It's not about a stellar cast, but rather about each character shining brightly, a blazing fire when gathered, and a sky full of stars when scattered! No one is deliberately ignored, and no one stands out excessively; each is full of vigor, and their stories are far from simplistic. 🍀 "Zhang Chengzong" is steady but lacks flexibility. 🍀 "Gu Ci" is impetuous but quick-witted. 🍀 "Zhou Tong" is taciturn but insightful. 🍀 "Li Hao" (a mathematical genius) is skilled in arithmetic but lacks knowledge of classical texts. 🍀 "Su Shi" (a memory genius) has a strong memory but is weak in logic, yet possesses a photographic memory. 🍀Wang Defa is quick-witted but reluctant to write.🫐When Gu Ci is in a group with Li Hao and Su Shi, Gu Ci's talent is supported by Li Hao's data and corroborated by Su Shi's anecdotes.🫐When Zhang Chengzong is in a group with Zhou Tong and Defa, Zhang Chengzong's composure is highlighted by Zhou Tong's ingenuity and smoothed out by Defa's cleverness. I remember what Teacher Chen said: Zhizhi Academy does not need a group of identical all-rounders! What I need is a 'team' that can complement and achieve each other.

    Although the first book has a title about real and fake heiresses, there's very little content about them, and the female lead doesn't seem to care about them. The female lead in the second book is not a socially awkward person; she's quite talented in mecha, command, and potion making. You can read the rest yourself; I'm too lazy to type it all out.
