*This is based on the first four episodes*

Xu Kai Cheng's acting is a little questionable. His character is going through a difficult time and it should make me want to sympathize with him while wanting to slap some sense into him. However, it just feels like he is throwing a tantrum. I don't feel what he feels. It's like XKC and the drama are telling me what happened and not showing me. 7/10

William Chan's character is also very very tortured. Poor man. I feel his pain. Master Fang, I know you can't tell us why you are the way you are yet, but when you do we'll be here for you. 9/10

Yang Mi continues to be wonderful. I don't exactly know how old her character is yet (maybe between 17-20), but they're clearing turning into a capable Young Master. 10/10

The costumes, the set, the choreographed fights and camera work is on point. Add in the amazing music and you've got the beginnings of a brilliant drama.

There were times when I laughed (when they introduced William's face to the camera, it was so dramatic), then times when I was STRESSED (when young Hai Shi was grabbing onto that rock). So great!!

I have so many questions that I'm willing to watch all episodes to have answered. That's what a first episode should do...make the viewer want more and Pearl Eclipse delivered on their part. As I watched on, I got to know more and craved for more.

All-in-all a pretty great start.

I'm getting Si Yin (YM's character in Eternal Love) and Mo Yuan vibes from this. And we all know how tragic that was...

Only Yang Mi's drama can bring tears to my eyes. The ending is similar to Love In Between.
