I don't think he's a bad guy, the way he treat his disciples and wu shuang make me thinks he's a good guy, he just cares a lot about Pentasect business, and is a stickler for rules like most martial artists like him.

The guy who's ml servant, who always call him master. I like how devoted he's to his master lol, hope he doesn't change and betray him in later eps.

I like the cp, why do you think this pairing is off. I find their relationship is so cute, the childhood friends who would come to help the other when one is in trouble. Can't wait to see when they finally acknowledge their feeling for each other.

Yeah, the tag did say multiple leads. It's just I wish a drama where xukai get lots of screen times, most of his dramas share similarities of him being sideline by support characters. Not saying I don't like the other characters, it's just my observation.

It's a very good drama. If you like xanxia you should definitely watch it ^^

It's not an attack, I didn't like how she was generalizing and made it look like it was xukai's fans who attacked fl, so I called her out on it.

You said most cdramas lack good characterization and good characters, and give an example of this drama. But in my opinion most viewers are just too impatient, and just want to get to the good stuffs right away, characterization is important, but it takes time to build up. Most viewers just jump the gun, and expect the impossible in just two eps, and calling the problem is cinematography or editing, or characters. I'm still new to this genre and I'm just exploring as I go along, and I'm enjoying what I'm seeing.

You said he doesn't act, but actually there are actors who play characters, and you can't really tell he's acting because he is so good at it. I find xukai is those type of actors, they're natural actors, he reminds me of Tony leung who can act with his eyes, he is still young and has a lot to learn, but the fact he has so many fans who acknowledge his acting meaning he's a good actor. I find him very versatile, so I think it's trash talk when you said he can't act.

I think it's meant to draw you in, wanting to find out more about what happened in the past. Also losing your mother as a child is a traumatic experience, and he blames his father for choosing his job over his family. I think he has every right to choose whether he wants to inherit his father job or not, knowing so many ridiculous rules of the pentasect, I wouldn't want to have anything to do with it either. If you think this is boring, then this is not a genre for you.

I only watched up to 4 eps and enjoy the drama just fine. Looking forward to more episodes ^^

If you don't like it that's fine, it's just not your genre, however calling it messy and cheap after only a few eps and skipping most of it, maybe it better for you to stop watching entirely. I don't understand those people who only watching a drama for only one actor/actress how do you even enjoy the plot or cinematography if you're skipping everything. Better just watched the trailer and be done with it.

Interesting, xukai is such a shy and quiet guy. His character in arsenal military academy is completely opposite from him. Did you watch all dramas from him from beginning to end, I started watching him from yanxi palace and was so impressed with his portrayal of that character being so young but able to portray such a mature character. I watched most of his dramas since, and just fall in love with all his characters portrayal, he has no experience in acting, but he really put lots of effort in each of his character, and make them memorable. In term of the actress, I have no problem with her, and actually like their dynamic. Also don't take those who have problems with the actress as xukai fans, they have problems with her in other dramas with different actors, so I don't think you should trash talk xukai just because they have a problem with her being typecast in this drama.

For those who wants to watch xukai in a new drama. He has a new drama out loss in the Kunlun mountain ^^

The empress was deposed and would've been send to a convent. She decided to end her life because she would lose her freedom, Zi Jin intercept for her, and persuade zhan ji to let her go and do what she wants to do as a physician. He made a ruling she was to be send to an outside palace, but I think it was only for those who are strict on palace rules, he basically set her free to do as she wants. Zi Jin became the new empress.

Hard to say, those who don't like this drama either don't like the fl or the ml, or a combination of both. They didn't like this drama to get better rating than their favorites. Haters are everywhere, everytime this drama got an 8.7, it will go back down to 8.6 again. Others dramas don't have the same problem.

If you want rating to improve, you can rate every episode that are already out. I was checking the rating and not a lot of people are rating each episode. In the past I don't rate the drama until I finish the show, but there is an option to rate each ep if you click on episode guide on the top.

I didn't watch mystic nine, is that another tomb robber type of story?

If you like arsenal military academy give it a try. Xukai outfits are similar to that one. Lots of action, ml and fl are childhood friends, they come to help each other when either of them are in trouble ^^

That's kind of mean, the guy is annoying, while fl is just a bit clueless. I like her with ding yunqi.

He kind of annoying though, I didn't even notice his outfit. He and his servant, when he was fighting ding yunqi in ep 2, that was funny how he was holding the umbrella for him while he was fighting. The guy gives the impression of a rich master and is kind of foolish lol ^^
