Let's take a look at who the characters from the Three Kingdoms admire.

Wei Yan:

I envy Huang Zhong. His arrows hit their mark so accurately. If I had half of his archery skills, Cao Cao would have lost more than just two front teeth.

Huang Zhong:

I envy Xiahou Dun. When I got an arrow in my shoulder, it was serious. But he took an arrow to the eye and didn't even flinch.

Xiahou Dun:

I envy Guan Yu. My arrow wound blinded me, making me disabled, with no cure. Every time he was shot, it was in the arm, and after resting for a few days, he was fine.

Guan Yu:

I envy Zhao Yun. He has never been hit by an arrow in his entire life. Archers don't dare shoot at him. (Prime Minister Cao has ordered: Do not shoot arrows.)

Zhao Yun:

I envy Zhang Fei. He is truly Liu Bei's main force.

Zhang Fei:

I envy Zhuge Liang. I fight hard at the front, while he gives me a sealed letter and then goes to enjoy himself at the back.

Zhuge Liang:

I envy Zhou Yu. His wife is beautiful. Unlike my wife...

Zhou Yu:

I envy Sima Yi. He could outwit Zhuge Liang completely, eventually causing Zhuge Liang's death. Unlike me, who was done in by Zhuge Liang...

Sima Yi:

I envy Guo Jia. Cao Cao listens to him and heavily relies on him, but doesn't listen to me or value me, instead letting me go tend horses.

Guo Jia:

I envy Xu Shu. I'm constantly thinking up strategies and ideas, exhausting myself to death. Xu Shu, however, never contributed a single plan, just ate and didn't work, living comfortably.

Xu Shu:

I envy Yang Xiu. He openly defied Cao Cao, eating his snacks, finding faults with him, and exposing his sins, whereas I only dared to secretly undermine Cao Cao.

Yang Xiu:

I envy Mi Heng. He cursed people all day long, yet Prime Minister couldn't do anything to him. All I said was "chicken rib..." and I was beheaded by the prime minister.

Mi Heng:

I envy Xu Chu. We were both naked in public, but I was scolded as uncivilized and lewd, while he was praised as brave and heroic.

Xu Chu:

I envy Dian Wei. No matter how hard I try, Lord Cao always talks about him, and his name always comes before mine.

Dian Wei:

I envy Cao Cao. He can cavort with women in his tent, while I have to stand guard outside for him.

Cao Cao:

I envy Liu Bei. How did men like Guan Yu and Zhao Yun end up following him?

Liu Bei:

I envy Sun Quan. His father and elder brother left him a large inheritance—land, wealth, and manpower—unlike me who started from scratch, with nothing at home.

Sun Quan:

I envy Cao Cao. He has so many soldiers, boasting of millions of troops at every turn. Even after losing 830,000 soldiers, he still has hundreds of thousands in reserve. In contrast, I can only send out tens of thousands of troops for each battle.

Cao Cao:

I envy Liu Bei. How did great generals like Guan Yu and Zhao Yun end up following him?

Liu Bei:

I envy Sun Quan. His father and elder brother left him a large inheritance...

... (Infinite loop)
