MyDramaList.com forgot to mention the Actor for Luo Min 's character as support role in the star cast and he plays a significant role in the second half of season 2. The 2 nd season is not entirely an all male actors series, there is one female however she is lost in the programme you don't know/ notice or get to see where/ in which scene is she acting but she is mentioned in the star cast. This programme is very interesting and exciting even though it seemed slow and confusing. What's sad is that all the good ones are dying leaving you baffled. It leaves you wondering whether if Murong Li is really the villain, however the director got us to love him and rooting for him, And at the same time you want revenge for all the good ones dying whereas usually, normally villains are hated. Prince Lord Zhi Yu, Grand tutor and especially King Zhi Ming are the funniest and the background funny music score for him matches him exactly. The background music score throughout is great even gets more catchy exciting and matches well leaving goosebumps and giving an adrenaline rush. The Ost rock song suits the the series. They include/ get you absorbed in their discussions of war strategies and tactics of dispatching troops. Their timing, actions and interaction with each other is really good, funny and nice to watch. Their heated arguments and scheming against each other is so good and real it leaves you disheartened and wishing that if they could all get along. It's actually sad to see Murong Li's relationship with King Zhi Ming change and Zhi Ming goes head to head with him, And you actually miss King Zhi Ming's antics/ idiotic behaviour when he turns serious. Although Lord Zhong Khun Yi fights fire with fire at first against Murong Li but in the end he started stooping low in his schemes. The characters' personalities and their dialogues has a lot of life lessons that you really realise, learn and relate to. All the actors including the background/ backup extra actors are brilliant in their acting, it's almost real. You get absorbed into all of them and their acting.
