I decided to watch this because of Zhang Ruo Yun; since he nailed his role in Joy of Life. He also embodied his role in this one.The plot for this wasn't that interesting for me. Other than wanting to see his martial arts training and improvements, his relationship with Jiang Ni - i was disappointed. especially everytime he gets a chance to shine something always stops him short (but i think that plays into his role of not wanting to fuel voilence as future leader) or maybe theyre keeping it for season two, no idea.
Loved the father son relationship, huang, jiang ni, the characters were well written. Xu Xiao is a real chess king lmaoo you never know this man next move its crazy and frightening -- there were ALOT of familiar faces from Joy of Life that i liked. The fighting vfx were kinda annoying lmao but i understand the intentions.
Overall, it was a fun watch and experience. I wouldnt find myself searching to rewatch though.

PEAK CINEMA
one of the best most engaging cdramas i've ever watched !!!as someone who has a kind of short attention span i did not mind the episodes dragging on AT ALL!!! this drama was written so well, i couldnt even predict what the hell was going on / going to happen.
and the politics? i dont even like it but i damn i sure had my thinking cap on!!! this is the drama i needed at the moment !!!!!! and dont get me started with the characters and acting OMG it was so goooooood!
