Best couples as two best artists took the lead role.
Specially I'm always a die hard fan of yang yang and and good fan of zhao lusi. That's the main reason to watch this drama for me. But it's worthwhile to watch as everything is fine and best, which has Been won over my first reason to watch. I'm rating 10 out of 10 for this drama. Foremost I would like to thank for the director to give such an amazing onscreen couples yang yang and zhao lusi. Everything is beautiful in the drama such as costumes, dialogues, bgms, screening, translations, action scenes and specially the story of the drama. The female lead and the male lead is such a superior actors to put their best efforts to enjoy the drama and other cast and crews too. Everyone has did it well. I'm waiting for the other episodes to aired soon.. Love the drama. And I suggest everyone to watch if anyone who is interested in watching a drama all the time. Again love you so much yang yang 😘. This is Banu from srilanka "yan yang's die hard fan".Was this review helpful to you?
great wuxia drama 2022
This drama tells the story of the feud between the six states, where later the main character will try to save the world and bring peace.the storyline is interesting and straight forward with just a little filler to the past.
displays many interesting battles even though until this episode 12, its full power has not been shown. very comfortable to watch with stunning CGI effects that make the fight not too stiff.
the music presented is also pleasant to listen to and will make you curious about the long version.
So far, this drama is pretty good and deserves a rating above 8.

Amazing Couples
such a beautiful drama! the chemistry between the leads was so insane,some people did not like the politics of the show but I LOVED it, it added more to the main leads story and we got to see more evil villains!
the romance was so beautiful, I cried at every scene bc I was so happy for them! when they cried I cried!
I love how everyone supported her and did not take her to be “weak” she is such a strong female character and we need more of these! and the male lead was so smart, and such a green flag!
please watch this drama! I promise it’s so good, the ending is so good and worth it! this and the long ballad are my fav dramas iv ever seen in the cdrama world!!

I just cannot get over with this drama
Salute to the casts and staff. The plot is epic, the music is beautiful.The drama points out the gender equality issue and explicitly emphasize the equality between man and woman. I really love the scene where the male lead was asked by his father, when he marry whether he become the king and his female lead become his consort or vice versa. And he answered, "Neither!They both will be ruling"
I have been a fan of Zhao Lusi since the romance of tiger and rose. I must say this time, Lusi's role become a mature one. And I love that! As a heroine, she has her own aspiration and value, but when she is needed by her people, she is answering the duty call well.
This is my first time watching yang yang. And I fall in love with him. He is so damn good! I can feel the cobflict between hei feng xi and feng lanxi within him.
It's really hard to move on and get over with this drama. WRTW is officially my all time favourite wuxia drama. 40 episodes seems not enough. I need another season of WRTW.

Unexpectedly, I enjoyed watching this.
I've watched previous drama of both leads before this,. And when this was announced, I wasn't that all excited about their tandem. Unexpectedly, this is now one of my favorites.I started this a few weeks ago, and didn't catch on the first episode so I didn't continue. In fact, I finished Love Like the Galaxy first because of Leo Wu, that's when I appreciated FL more as well. After watching it, I immediately started WRTW.
FL is waaaaaay better here than LLTG!! And her chemistry with YY is so on point.
However, as much as I love this one, there are ofcourse, things I hope they improved. The last 3 episodes felt too fast. More than half of the series evolves on the ML Family drama, while only 3 episodes involveds the FL family. It would have been nice to have interesting scenes in the other state too.
I love the 3rd parties in the main love team. Not too overdramatic. And again, their chemistry is so cute. Hope to see them again in one drama in the future..

Bad fighting scenes, interesting story
I was excited when this drama came out as it has been a long time since there's a Wuxia drama and this drama is casted by famous actors and director. After watching eps 1-2, I can see Zhao Lu Si is not fitting for fighting drama, her strokes are weak, even if her weapon is a ribbon, her grip of the ribbon is not strong. Shes basically holding it while CGI does the rest of the work. If you watch Jet Lis Fong Sai Yuk theres many ribbon scenes that shows it can be a stronger weapon by the way the actor portrays it. It reminds me of Chinese ribbon dance and not martial arts. As for Yang Yang.. fan dance?Due to the increasing high rating, I decided to bypass my opinion and watch a bit more.. the story is very interesting... But every fight scene is disappointing... I can see other reviewers speaking highly of the two main actors. I am a fan of their work too (love 020, romance tiger rose, etc) but only their NON fighting wuxia drama.
If you are watching this drama for maybe romance you may like it. However, if you are a martial arts/wuxia fan (i am not talking about stuff like eternal love, romance of tiger rose these are focused on romance and not fighting), this may not be for you.

Sorry. Not my cup of tea. Really.
Idk but I find this very overrated. I think its because Yang2x and Lusi are famous that's why this became a hit. Otherwise its ...1. Ok so here are reasons why I dropped it.
Lusi is pretty good at comedy. I also love her as princess Leyan but not here. I just can't vibe with her character. Like acting is okay but she doesn't have the "aura" I'm looking for in a strong badass FL. Some examples of FL with this so-called aura is YangMi, Li Qin, Zhao LiYing. Dilireba and Rachel Wang is also not bad. I hope you get what I mean.
2. Fight scenes are not engaging. They're just edited with no physical combat. Sword snow even did better even if it has also minimal physical combat. It would be better if the fight scenes where somewhere like Heroes or better if similar to Princess Agents.
3. The cloth swishing is so weirdd. Yeah this is a petty reason but it really bothers me.
4. Lusi's ponytail too high. But still pretty.
Nevertheless I still love it's OSTs and Posters. I also love YangYang. I love Lusi too but not here. Sorry.

Loving it!
I am really enjoying this drama. Most of my favorite handsome actors are in this. I have just one complaint, how could they kill of He Kai Lang's character? He did a fantastic job and really needs to get a chance as a leading character. 😀 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😂🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😂🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😂😂😂😂🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀🙂🙂Was this review helpful to you?
TOO MUCH "ME TOO" SYNDROME
Took Tencent quite a few years to wrap their head around creating a 3Lives3Worlds (aka Eternal Love) clone. I'm simply shocked at the speed it took for Tencent to now create a Word of Honor clone.You see, Tencent had always been a "me too" company. You should see their other works. A lot of their anime derive from classic Japanese anime series. Anyone remember Ranma 1/2? Tencent has a clone of that work called Fox Spirit Matchmaker. Anyways, back to this series, which definitely is Tencent's version of Word of Honor.
PROS:
- Good cinematography
- Excellent CGI and effects
- FL kicks ass
CONS:
- Yang Yang doesn't give out the vibes of a Martial Master. His moves very clumsy like someone who never learned martial arts. Does he even train in martial arts before taking on such roles?
- Cheesy dialogues
- Cliche story gimmicks to drive plot forward
- Feels too much like an idol drama

It’s a chore to watch the first 2 eps
This review is based on 2 eps, of course I’ll update it if I keep watching, if I can find the power to actually keep going!Is this a wuxia drama? No, not really. If you think the FL’s hand blocking 5-7 moves slowly (so slowly, so disjointedly that it looks more like acting than fighting!) qualify this as the greatest wuxia drama of the year, then you really need to go watch the 90s wuxia lol. In ep1, FL fights a bunch of bad guys, who is trying to kill this 1 dude, but all she did was knocked them unconscious (maybe, you see them unconscious but the number ain’t seem to come down really), or knock them away somewhere, so they proceed to kill the dude she tries to protect. So you wonder what’s the point? Or are you retarded? Like if your enemy is trying to kill, being soft just getting yourself killed? But whatever, let’s move on to ep2, where ML gets to show off his awesome kungfu skill, which show him fly up in the air, swing out his hands, and his enemies drop like flies. Again, I wouldn’t call this wuxia, I call this fantasy style fighting, where ppl just magically get defeated! All fight scenes end in like 1-3moves aren’t count as fight scenes, guys. If you claim yourself a wuxia drama, at least show us a decent fight scene.
Then we need to talk about the defying physics of the FL, she who stood on top of the bamboo tree (or some super tall tree, at least 3m, I’m being generous here, more like 5m, but let’s say 3m), talking to lowbies on the ground. Not only we see the trees sway like crazy, she stands perfectly still! Amazing kungfu! She’s not on the tree, she’s actually hovering up in the air! We also see how she can converse normally with those lowbies, who are at least 3m below her, without looking at them, or raising her voice, they can still converse normally like they are next to each other. Amazing kungfu those lowbies have! Pity they used their kungfu in the wrong area (strengthen their hearing instead of their fighting skills >_>). Or my ears just got that bad from wearing headphones! That I’m having trouble hearing ppls about 2m away if I’m in a forest with so much winds and leaves rubbing against each other sound, and I’m facing away from them!
Do the characters follow the book? I don’t care, and I doubt the leads’ fandoms care lawl. Do their costumes look bad, and not suitable for the S+ title the drama was supposed to have due to the amount of money invested in it? No, because they supposed to be jianghu ppl, they meant to dress simple. So I’m actually fine with their costumes. Do they have chemistry? To me, no. I’m baffling with the way they interact with each other. They were supposed to know each other for a very long time. FL seems to look down/dislike ML because he’s scheming and she doesn’t necessarily trust him. Yet next moment, if she gets the chance, she tries to play cutesie with him 0.o and those cutesie moments are forced, and not natural. Not only that, for someone who know each other a long time, I’m expecting funny banter now and then, instead I got nothing but bland, long winded dialogue that make me don’t want to read the subtitles. Or at least it questions whether I would like this series more if I don’t have to spend effort in reading and trying to understand where it’s going. If I know Chinese, I could have it on the background, and therefore enjoy it more?
TLDR: if you are a fan of either of these two, you MIGHT like it. If you are not, you won’t lol! And if you do, good on you! Nothing to drive home about this drama, at least based on the first 2 eps.
PS: spare me the whole you must give it 10eps, before it gets good! Some other series is either half way through by ep10 or near finish by then lol!

Finally!!!!
This is the kind of drama that I have been finally waiting for!!!Finally there is a heroine in these kinds of dramas that do not need the ML to always rescue her; she is capable of pulling her own weight and getting rid of the many obstacles she faces with swift and outstanding fighting skills that I have not been able to see in many other historical and martial arts dramas before
Likes so far
1) Yang Yang the ML is always a favorite in historical dramas; he wearing a costume like this is always nice to see and brings out his handsome features of an actor
2) Rosy Zhao Zhao Lusi is always been shown as a cute, weak and cutesy character in her many other dramas like "The Romance of Tiger and Rose", and she has never been given a role that shows off her diverse character; this drama has definitely shown that this actress not only can pull off being cute and weak, she can show her mature side and able to defend herself in the most outstanding way and it grabs my attention from the drama.
3) It is nice to see other familiar actors like Lulu Xuan from the drama "The Untamed" as she portrays another different kind of character her from the weak character that she portrayed before.
4) The small boy that they rescued together; even though the two main leads are still trying so "hard"to hid their affection for each other; the small boy shows them like a family and the funny moments that they have together especially between Bai Feng Xi and the small boy.
5) I love the black and white concept; Bai Feng Xi and Hei Feng Xi. The chemistry between the actors onstage and offstage are shown throughout the drama; and they are supposed to be "rivals" but I guess they are not really shown as rivals but that is up to how the audience would see them.
Dislikes
1) The power struggle for the throne between the three brothers are not as good as I would have liked to see
So far this drama has started off strong and there is still a lot that has yet to be revealed so I am excited for the remaining episodes; although the latest episodes are still quite far away.
A drama that is definitely a must watch in 2022
