    The first book is a modern ensemble novel by Guanlan yyds. The second is a space-themed ensemble novel with a strong female protagonist; it's one of my favorites after she sold everything she owned to go to school. Other books I remember particularly well are also quite popular. I think these two are worth recommending.

    A group of characters, when separated, are each a king; when gathered, they're just a bunch of childish fools. Now, if you want a lighthearted read, check out the first one. "Starting with a Transmigration into a Powerful Village, the Junior Sister's Background is Super Strong" is a group story where the female lead has power, background, and resources—so much so that she doesn't even want to pick them up from the ground. Her master and senior brothers are awesome. The second one is similar to the first, but the female lead's resources aren't as good. But no problem, she gets everything through plunder. Her equipment is definitely awesome too. The third one—the title itself tells you she's an all-elemental magician. In short, awesome, awesome, awesome! The fourth one is Lin Du!! ‼️Explosive!! ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ A group story about Lin Du, who is unparalleled in his ability to help others before helping himself.
