Badass Female Leads: You got my attention

I'm finding that a lot of shoujo isekai mangas with the tag "strong female lead" or "smart female lead" doesn't always feature strong female leads and got tired of the letdown. This is a list of female leads that I think are actually strong female leads. This list features works of badass FL that I think are awesome. I have another one where the FL are also badass, but the stories are not as interesting. I've basically made tiered lists based on my tastes.

Female lead dies and is reincarnated to another world with a "game menu" system where she can buy items and earn XPs to level up. I imagine she'll become pretty OP as time passes, so it feels fun to read her growth.

Author(s): 정하임,강세아
Genre(s): Webtoons / Fantasy / Romance

Female lead possesses the body of a duke's daughter who was ugly, which caused her og self to lash out at others. After female lead takes over, she just does what she wants and levels up her magic, starts being nice to people, and tries to help those around her. She has badass moments, but the romance parts annoy me.
