idk why but i was sure this would have a sad…

idk why but i was sure this would have a sad ending for the main couple or rather, that Ren would end up lone while Miu would've moved on. & even though i should rejoice i feel apathetic... it was very realistic (i guess), as most of the character's weren't fanciful or magical like fairytale character's come to life - they were flawed, broken & hurting... in spite it all they found the strength within themselves to face their fears & go after their hearts desire. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************somehow the main couple were the most flawed or Ren was & the fact he kept throwing himself a pity party while acting very selfishly was infuriating - like the start of this last ep - where he was basically acting like all the women in his life took advantage & used him, like he was a passive doll - an inanimate object they picked up along the way & once they got done playing, discarded him & moved on. women aren't stupid, when feelings r involved they might act stupid, but on a whole most of the women that got involved with him, even if at the start they thought there was a chance he would warm & open up, allowing them into his life & heart, they soon came to the conclusion that he had nothing to offer... wasn't interested in offering anything but his body. so they took what was offered & when they wanted more, they moved on. but they the "bad-guy" & he the poor used victim?!???? bish plz ***************************************************************************************************even until the end (before the exchange of art books) even though he knew he loved & wanted to be with Miu, what did he do? did he seek her out? he did everything but seek her out. when he finally went to her, cause she didn't welcome him with open arms, he told her he just came to help & was leaving ASAP. so how can i rejoice for a character like this? *************************Miu's the typical woman in love, even when the person she loves is a lost cause, as long as she loves him it is enough no matter the heartache she knows she will sufferer, that is a sacrifice she will happily suffer for her love. this more depressing then encouraging & uplifting, but the end - ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************this was well acted & wasn't boring, but idk if i will rewatch...

Killing the wolf with Bare Hands

Finally the Banner Competition!! Nice! The Recruits have completed their 1st month of training so it's time. He Yan found the anonymous person who bet on her. It was hilarious when XiaoJue was looking at He Yan from side like no those flatbreads are not mine. He Yan was teasing him when she found out that her Commander was the anonymous person. I've been waiting for this Flag Competition for so long! First they'll patrol the mountains after that the competition will be held. Nope He Yan's team had gone up the mountain for patrolling, but the WB and ZX are clearly not thinking of her as their leader, and will disobey her. The Wolf fight scene is here! They made trouble, now He Yan's gotta act fast. She helped him up the horse now left alone to deal with the wolves, bitten by a wolf, two nasty wounds, falling into the deep pit. Xiao Jue himself came to find her, and she was caught dreaming a vacation with her sweetheart lol. She's too funny, taunting him like this, will you make me walk back to the camp? I'm injured lol. And he's just rolling his eyes. When she leaned on him while on horse back He found out she's a woman, and he was shocked as to why a woman came all the way to Yezhou to join the army. Returned to the base, XJ's eavesdroping on He Yan's and Cheng Lisu's conversation how she said he took the right decision he has to maintain discipline this is an army, if they didn't execute Zhang Xuan and tomorrow if they had gone to war, who'd trust him to guard their back? She's lying about having a fiancee lol, to escape CL's examination. Ahhhhhhhhhh! Running into the arms of Xiaojue!! Can't wait for tomorrow.

Double Duel in 10 Days

The past event was cute. What am I witnessing! Fighting in the hot spring, literally hiding your body is difficult, but she's underwater trying to splash as much water as possible so he won't be able to see her, amazing scene, and even underwater she was trying her best that he won't be able to see her (cause she was bathing so no clothes), she casually kicked him twice into the water and was like after it all "bye commander, Xiao" and he was like "it's you again!" That hot spring scene will become one of the fav scenes of this drama, Xiao Jue with this black armor cavalry riding the horses valiantly, such Majestic scene, Jiuqi camp, I almost forgot about it, the soldiers trained by him, and only accepts Elite Warriors. The core of the Xiao Army. I like how fast paced all this is, him setting a bait right after observing her moves in last night fight, and her understanding that he's setting a bait to hook her. She has decided to play along and will join Jiuqi camp honourably, She's so confident while taking to Instructor Shen, like you won't find a better warrior than me in your recruits. Ahhhhh finally the competition between Wang Ba and He Yan, when he's bullying her but she's the type to break the bully's nose. The Archery competition finally ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! In 10 days I'll defeat you in Archery, your best skill! We know she will. Oh my she's challenging Jiang too for a Spear challenge in 10 Days which is his best skill, finally will be able to watch it and not read it! Training at night so she'll be able to win in 10 days, I love her the most. At this point I'm fangirling over here and not reviewing, anyways continue blushing watching her. When she's training, XJ's here himself to see her progress, sparring, the best thing in action scenes. A spear duel between them. She's using all the flattery and reasons for XiaoJue to train her, ah a condition if you can resist 10 strikes in a circle, I'll train you. Is this sparring or spring? More like Romancing but fiercely. Just inches away, ahhhhhhhhhhh! She's standing on his feet totally balanced. He Yan let go of him, his subordinates will think that he likes men. She's going to use him to succeed. Quite a quick learner. When she entered his tent, there was the Qinglang sword, feeling emotional meeting after such a long time, the master craftsman forged two swords one was Yinqiu and the other was Qinglang, handed to both of them. Ah XJ's there with the sword pointed at her neck, they're betting their flatbreads on either Jiang Jiao, Wang Ba or He Yan lol. Finally the most awaited duel, the Archery competition! Even the instructors are there for the duel. Scene of the duel is amazing, ahhhhhhhh she went back and then shot the target, shot from far than Wang Ba. Time for Spear Sparring, she won fabulously. In Xiaojue's eyes HeYan the recruit, is a formidable opponent.

The Military Training Camp

Little flashbacks from ths past, Xianchang Academy, former classmates. Back to the present, Cheng Lisu, medical bureau's top disciple, XJ's nephew avoiding marriage, so here at the training camp being all flashy disturbing his peace. Finally! Being able to see HY in action! Climbing and Taming the horse!! I live for her scenes. XJ recognised the way of taming the horse was unique to the Fuyue Army (He Rufei's), and suddenly a man appearing in their training base, they'll find it sus. Chu Zhao's first appearance, Disciple of Xu Jingfu (prime minister), along with Xu Pingting, prime minister's daughter. Ahhhhhhhhhhh! First appearance of Wang Ba (the infamous bandit), along with Zheng Xuan, Jiang Jiao (the famous one for Spear), Mai (the short one), Huang Xiong (the former hunter). Waiting for the Gang to assemble. HY trusts in XJ, that he wouldn't just flood a city to gain quick military merit. The Instructors are in sight too now, Shen Han, the Head. What an amazing wake up call for the rogue and Bandit, splashing water on them to wake them up. Xiaojue himself came to their tent for the wakeup call. I'll enjoy this military training arc do much. He Yan didn't know how Xiao Jue trained his men, but now experiencing the intense training on the first day herself, he sure is a Strict General, she wasn't this intense on her subordinates in terms of training. After running 10 laps with heavy weight, time to test their abilities to hold the weapons, He Yan chose the Twin blades, less than an arm's length, ahhhhhhhhhhh! The move, she left Wang Ba completely speechless, atleast she proved her skills in front of everyone present. And after showcasing her skills, that was funny she just slugged her shoulders and was like ah I'm exhausted! Everyone was speechless like what, can't you fight? While she said that she won't be able to pull this now, against Wang Ba in competition, He Yan really can't hold much weight when she just recovered from poison, and now with all this military training she's trying hard, but it'll take time. She will take back everything that she earned with Blood, sweat and tears. She was already soaking in the hot spring, XJ arrived!! Ah can see him shirtless, fangirling why not?

Second Chance

The Beginning is good, recalling memories from the past, how He Yan had to become a substitute for someone, wearing a mask since childhood, freedom was prohibited, not restricted but prohibited. After being a substitute of someone for so long, almost forgetting who you are, she'll rise again. I knew it, Goddess ZY is back!!! The intro looks good, this opening theme, ost will be saved in my playlist, it's really good, the lyrics are good. I have waited so long for them. Okay so General Xiao dies at the beginning and HY being General Feihong was late and the General Xiao lost his life, Xiaojue and HY, said to be Wei's twin stars, and the Qinglang Sword entrusted by Gen Xiao was confiscated by Xiaojue. I'm loving the aesthetics. This trashy father is already frustrating me. In front of the Emperor Xiaojue pleading to clear his father's name. And General Feihong was summoned, the one who came wasn't He Yan. Pulled his sword out of the scabbard and slashed He Rufei's mask, ah that's a beautiful scene. I'm so angry, all her life she was forced to become He Rufei, now that she has achieved merit, he suddenly arrived to swap the identities, and HY wasn't allowed to go to the court. XJ will have to reclaim the lost territory through his own means, no additional soldiers will be given, vowing to clear his father's name. While He Yan after meeting her brother HR, the first gift she received was a poison, casted her aside after all her efforts, and now left in a temple, the poison took her eyesight. While HR still not satisfied, wants her dead to leave no trace behind of the identity swap. The meeting near the pond ahhhhhhhhhhh! XJ giving her a hope to live, when the killer wanted to kill her by moving objects cause she is blind, she can only move around after observing the objects around her. Now letting her escape on her own so she'll die accidentally (obvious murder), the fighting scene was good, her being blind and closing her eyes to sharpen her ears. I know it's just the beginning but still I teared up when she was stabbed and pushed off the cliff. Being saved by her Master Liu Buwang. I knew it she will do good, playing a fierce character, abandoned by her family, forced to the edge. But He Yan will rise again, returning to the army and will slowly reclaim everything that was hers. Heading to Yezhou Garrison, to commence her journey.

The Taiping Residence

Lin Ruofu doesn't fully trust FX yet, so this is the final test, sending Assassins in the deep forest, the guy Wan'er will show up with he'll be Fan Xian and attack him, force his martial arts master to come out. He believes that Fan Xian must have killed Lin Gong through a Martial arts master. While FX used the outing as an excuse to visit the Taiping residence, sending Ruoruo for scouting first then going there himself to avoid suspicion. Just as they reached the bank of the river, Arrows were shot towards them, to make sure none comes near the Taiping residence, while Wuzhu arrives and explains that it's a Ninth Dan Archer which is rare, so FX will have to go and search for the key, only Wuzhu can handle the Archer. But you know the most funny part is that, The Crown Prince asked Wan'er for a walk around, and now the Assassins from Lin Ruofu are thinking of him as Fan Xian, while he's playing innocent cause he knows they're all idiots, especially their leader. He's like are you taking me to the Prime Minister? He knew it the moment hits subordinate told him that Prime Minister met Wan'er last night, that he doesn't trust Fan Xian yet and this is his plan. Oh my, the Ninth Dan Archer is the Director of the Imperial Guards, Yan Xiaoyi. What the hell he's feasting on Watermelon and meat together, weird. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh he caught the arrow thrown by Wuzhu and shot it right back and Wuzhu caught it again, it's too entertaining to watch. Amazing! The Director is hot! Kinda expected that if the Director is here then the person who was sitting could only be The Emperor, and he was so quick when he pushed Fan Xian around and opened the gate, so the Director wouldn't shoot him, cause he could distinguish two people's breathe through the wall, he's a ninth dan master and only one step away from being a Great master, but he has given the verbal edict to the Director that make sure no one gets near this residence.

Five Stars

Well, it was really heartbreaking to see chi cheng and wu suwei's break up..... I literally cried during that scene.But still happy to see that chi cheng finally came to know how he truly feels......that he doesn't have any feelings for wang shuo and the whole of his heart belongs to wu suwei..........that scene was so relieving.In my opinion, sometimes a little distance is important in relationships to clear the air and the misunderstandings from the past.The relationship they had till now was built on lies, it's better that they broke up.I hope, now when they come together again, they will have a better relationship built on true feelings and affection for each other.It's getting interesting with each passing episode, really looking forward to the next episode............... but waiting for one week feels like years.The actors and director really did a great job, thank you for your hard work 👍👍
