Just to point out the charcater development of the pig squad is amazing.. From thugs who brings trouble to their village to being a protector, soldier and confidante of chang yu.
She may not have “had the right” to decide for him in theory, but in reality, letting him fight wounded to…
Yes, Chang Yu deserves to be punished for knocking him out—I won’t argue with that. But deserving punishment doesn’t make it the wrong choice. In that moment, her action saved lives, preserved the mission, and prevented a disaster. Look at Xie Zheng—he left the battle even with the bigger villain still out there, because protecting lives and the mission mattered more than personal glory. Morally, she can face consequences, but strategically and practically, what she did was the right call. Sometimes doing the right thing in action isn’t the same as being blameless in principle.
Skill wins in short, decisive moments—when speed, precision, and execution decide everything. Experience wins…
Just because she lacked battlefield experience doesn’t mean she couldn’t defeat a formidable opponent. She killed Changxin, but it wasn’t easy—she almost died herself, Mandi was killed, and she only survived because of General Xie and the pig squad. After the battle, she was gravely wounded. Every strike she landed was driven by rage, fear, adrenaline, and desperation. Sometimes a student surpasses the teacher—not through perfect training, but through courage, quick thinking, and seizing the right moment. Victory on the battlefield isn’t about experience alone; it’s about adaptability, determination, and using every circumstance to your advantage.

He may think she stole his choice, but if he’d fought wounded, he’d be dead—and with him, the cause and everyone depending on him. Great men aren’t just brave in death; they’re brave enough to survive when it matters most. She didn’t take his courage—she made the call no one else could, saving lives and the mission. He may carry the guilt, but he’s alive to fight, honor his master, and lead. A dead man saves no one. True heroism isn’t dying—it’s living to keep the fight alive.
That was valid from him. He would have rather died trying to save his master's life rather than wake up to the…
Getting angry at first is completely expected—anyone in his position would feel frustrated at being stopped from acting on their own courage. But once he calms down, he needs to see the bigger picture: if he had gone through with it while wounded, he very likely would have died. Then who would lead the troops? Who would ensure the mission succeeds or protect the people depending on him? True responsibility isn’t about proving personal bravery in a single moment—it’s about preserving the ability to make a difference in the long term. His initial anger makes sense, but understanding her choice as protecting him, the army, and the larger mission shows that her intervention was not only justified but necessary. In war, sometimes the hardest choice is choosing survival over pride, and the truly strong recognize that hindsight, not emotion, guides real leadership.
Listen. I love my girl but the drama is fucking up my Marquis’ importance to this entire series. How the fuck…
She may not have “had the right” to decide for him in theory, but in reality, letting him fight wounded to the death would have been catastrophic. A dead commander saves no one, and a moment of heroism won’t bring soldiers back to life. Just because someone is a commander doesn’t mean they always have to sacrifice themselves; sometimes thinking first and acting wisely saves far more lives. For example, in World War II, wounded leaders who were kept alive and evacuated were able to continue directing troops and turning battles around—dead commanders cannot lead. By acting decisively, she preserved his life, the army’s morale, and the mission itself. Survival sometimes means overriding pride for the greater good—doing the morally hard thing when no one else can.
Stupid shit in these 2 episode. Yes. I’m pissed. - how tf did Yu Qian just magically run right into FCY in the…
Skill wins in short, decisive moments—when speed, precision, and execution decide everything. Experience wins in drawn-out, thinking battles—where patience, strategy, and foresight take control.
Take Mulan as an example. Early on, she isn’t the most experienced soldier, but her quick thinking and adaptability let her survive and even outmaneuver stronger, more seasoned opponents in critical moments. That’s skill carrying her through. But as she grows, gains battlefield understanding, and learns how enemies think, she becomes far more dangerous—that’s experience catching up and amplifying her ability.
So if it’s a fast, high-stakes clash, raw skill can overpower experience. But if the fight drags on, the experienced one starts reading patterns, setting traps, and turning the situation in their favor.
This guy has to go.. I won't forgive him for the Lian village massacre
Spoiler.
The intimate scene of chang yu and Xie zheng in the bathtub wasn't cut and pass censorship. They really did show they doing it. 🤐
Killing two generals without “experience” isn’t about her being better overall. It’s about timing and conditions.
