Story: First, this drama focuses mostly on martial art competitions and the journey of the female lead towards achieving the status of the best Yuanwudao martial artist. Therefore, if you are after a romance drama, this is not it and you will be sorely disappointed. Instead, watch this if you are interested in watching martial art competitions and the ups and downs a person faces when preparing for a competition. This drama also emphasises on the concept of family, friendship, diligence and loyalty. It's more of a self-discovery journey of the female lead character. There's the development of triangle romance but that is not the focus of this drama. Again, a fair warning - this is a NOT a romance drama (although romance was part of the journey of 'growing up' of the female character) but a sports & friendship-themed drama. The story stayed loyal to its original style despite the change in the main characters from Whirlwind Girl 1. However, I feel its a bit lengthy and that certain parts of the drama could have been presented more concisely. In fact the last 2 episodes were a total waste of time with lots of flashbacks. I would have rated the story 9/10 if not for all the flashbacks in the last 2 episodes. Also, the way it ended....are they planning for a Season 3? Acting/Cast: Everyone acted well. Music: Suitable. Rewatch value: Not a candidate for re-watch though there are some scenes between the female lead and male lead that may be nice to go back to. Overall: Watchable entertainment but with some lengthy scenes that could have been cut short. If they are aiming for a Season 3, I hope they will stop trying to drag the story out...but this is the Chinese we are talking about. They'll probably milk this cow and bleed it dry until it can no longer walk and the audience drop like flies as time passes! Compared to Whirlwind Girl 1, this drama is comparable but slightly on the lesser side.
