It was a pretty interesting twist to the show since somethings were predictable. Honestly would have loved if failed players had a second chance to come back to life because a lot of them were eliminated by chance. Mai was super keen and worthy opponent. I was surprised how nobody agreed about Ashley being unfair, including Ashley herself, about Trey's demise during the glass bridge. Otherwise he would've been able to participate on to the next round. I was surprised how ALL the other players didn't see Mai's point of view and blamed Mai for being negative and picking on Ashley. I absolutely agreed with Mai. Ashley eventually decided to be a team player but that was after one player was UNFAIRLY elimated because of her Inaction when it was rightfully HER TURN. By all means that is not a team player. So, that was annoying that the group didn't even acknowledge Ashley's unfair play. I absolutely felt irritated as Ashley kept urging Trey to take the next step SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO TAKE. It was incredibly annoying to watch Ashley talk as if she had the right to talk at the moment of being the most unfair. It would have been nice if Trey STOOD his ground regardless and call her out for not being a team player so the other brainless pack could actually remember her unfair INACTION. Give her an ultimatum she and the forgetful group can remember. But it was a lot of pressure and it seemed he just caved a bit being in the front lines.

The ending was not good. The last 5 episodes was not good. The ending became too predictable for dramatic affects. When one of the main characters was killed I had a feeling this was going to continue to the end and well, it did. So, I can't say I am happy with how this show ended. To be frank, the show ending sucked. It focused too much on killing and fighting and the enemy when the enemy honestly should have died in the middle of the series for being so bad and yet, was never held accountable and even in the end, they let the enemy talk too much and it was just too lame. I got too bored and tired and starting hitting the fast forward button. The sweetness between Gu Yen Zhen and Xie Xiang wasn't tied up enough and slapped together in the end. I think they should have made a very happy sweet cute scenes to close the show off more positively but it was just in all honest, boring and lame. It got too badly lame and depressing to turn some cute scenes in anyway and that 's why I felt like it wasn't fullfilling to watch. I give it three stars because I enjoyed watching the love and interaction between Gu Yan Zhen and Xie Xiang but the rest was so lame afterwards. I loved the romeo and juliet performance from Bai Lu very much. It was a beautiful scene. I knew another key character was definitely going to die before he died and why did I know, because the show was just becoming too predictable and the ending was just so bad. Otherwise, I'd probably give it 4 stars. The director is talented but I think he needs to work on his conclusion skills for this series. It left me unhappy and disappointed despite all the sweet talent and artistry of emotions displayed, the ending was a real drag.

I don't know why but I'm not exactly feeling the chemistry between the two characters. I can relate to a lot of female leads and their charms in other dramas but I'm missing the charm factor of this female lead. She seems a bit melancholic in nature, nurturing, naive, and a bit boring. Aside from the preshow picture of her bright cheerful smile, that was probably the most attractive energy I felt from her character. I guess it's because I find her character to be a bit melancholic and too naive. I get the charms of the 2nd female bird spirit lead. She's got some charm and plays an overly chatty but fun spirited character. I just felt like the main lead, Dragon King fell for main female lead too quickly without me the viewer feeling the same affection build up by learning about both charms of the characters as they do in other series. I can't say the silent role exactly fits the 2nd male lead either. He's handsome and looks stellar but yet, I'm feeling the same feeling which is that this is kinda boring. He plays a much better good guy than bad guy. Honestly, I find this series kind of boring. Fast Foward button used to get the gist of the story. This was a no go for me because I am not buying into the chemistry. Dylan had some funny scenes and good scenes and some wow wow muscular scenes but I guess I'm not buying into the love between all the characters. Maybe it is yet to grow but I'm already on episode nine and I fought to get there. Their definitely was some beautiful scenes but I feel like character development from female lead and 2nd male lead was lacking so it wasn't exactly something I could really fall deep into. Scenes and characters look pretty. I liked the time stop wedding scene. That was slightly romantic and interesting but overall, nah. It's a no go for me because I feel like I needed to believe and understand why Dragon King is so deeply in love with this woman when I couldn't. I guess it's not enough to just say ok, she's a nurturing and healed him from a bad dragon situation and now he's in love with her. To be frank, I really needed to see some charms and say OK, I get it. That's why he's so deeply into her. But to be honest, I couldn't. She plays a "nice" person but I'm thinking there must be more right? I as a viewer need to buy into her charms and understand the viewpoint of the dragonking but to be frank, I just found her character to be melancholic and a bit boring. Dylan was good at being an attractive lead but the energy overall didn't fly. Like the energy between the two leads has to be so strong that even offscreen and not being actors, I could believe there is a really something there but I don't buy it one bit here.

Loved this show. I started watching it because of Dylan. I started to be a fan of his after watching the love between fairy and devil. This was a very moving thought provoking drama. I could relate to a lot of the issues that was in the story line so I really connected with this series unexpectedly. The title of the series was very unappealing so that why I didn't watch it for so so long but it was really interesting when I did. Thx to the whole team for putting on a good show. Everyone acted very well. I was filled with enjoying many sweet on screen moments. Loved it.

I am now qualified to write this review because I've watched this series twice and I usually can't say that I actually do that. I even loved it so much more the second time. This is the most romantic drama of all the dramas I have watched. I've watched a lot of k dramas and c dramas and this is just so romantic. I love the two leads. I think they are so cute. For China to be able to produce strong quality dramas recently like this was very impressive to me because a lot of other series does not compare well to Korean dramas. But this one certainly, I'd have to say really really took my breath away not once, but over and over again. Esther is so sweet and lovely and gentle. Dylan gives off subtle looks that convey so much emotions that it's just amazing to watch. Both of them are just lovely together. Esther's childlike quality as a fairy suited the role because she plays a young divine spirit. In the first scene it did seem strange for a grown woman to act so childlike but we understand why as the story moves along so I felt she did a beautiful job playing her part very well. I was bored on Netflix recently and decided to rewatch my favorite 3 romantic dramas. The other two I stopped short of continuing because of down turn kind of boring scenes but THIS series, I realized, has no real boring scenes at all. Honestly the MOST ROMANTIC SERIES EVER. I love watching to see the love the main leads share for each other over and over. The actor who played the two faced Ronghao also did an impressive job playing two characters. He was believable as both. Just an impressive cast of actors and actresses. I honestly really enjoyed watching them all. The innocence of them all was so refreshing to watch. Shang Que, the dutiful guard and the relationship with Jieli was adorable. Zhang Linghe was so fun to watch as Xiao Run. So funny to watch him play a silly guy dull headed guy. I know I will be rewatching this again and again. Love it.
