An underrated drama in my opinion.
I watched this drama in 3 days and I was hooked from the first episode til the end. I didn't skip one minute (as I do sometimes, when it's predictibale and boring :-).
The story is simple: good against evil... But - It shows you, why someone becomes evil. It's always a reason. And in every evil is a sparkle of good.
The embedding of this theme in the fantasy genre and the images of stars are very successful.

The whole cast did a wonderful job. Peter Sheng as kind-hearted, sensible Quin Wen Tian is adorable.
I loughed (espacially with the little urchin :-)) and cried a lot. I felt the friendship and trust between the disciples in my heart. This is not a lovestory or a romance. It's about finding the right path and the inner struggle between good and evil and the right decision. The love between the main couple is sweet like the scent of flowers in spring.

If you get involved in this drama, open your heart to the feelings of friendship, loyalty, trust and love, you will not be disappointed. To follow the story it's important not to skip.

The special effects and green screen aren't the best, but don't detract from the story and the great cast.
