While a town wasn’t much, it was Zhong Yu’s first base in the Three Kingdoms. After putting the people and guards under observation, he exchanged 500 soldiers to guard Eastern Township and the surroundings. These average soldiers were even better than Eastern Township’s guards, who hadn’t seen battle for years and lacked discipline. While his men trained every day and …

Shen Chang’s team of ten was today on guard duty at the gates, inspecting the goods and merchants that came in. It just so happened that today was one of the busiest days, filling his pockets with no few coins either. Road tax, entry tax and many others gave them the opportunity to fleece the merchants. Counting his ill-gotten gains, …

“System, I want a competent scholar and competent general.” Two new people appeared in the hall looking left and right, then falling to their knees at the sight of the seat of honor. “Zhao Xin and Zhang Lie at your service, Your Grace.” “I was expecting you. The county magistrate and officer I need for my county.” The two were …

A clan would last through the ages, but not a dynasty. Except the Shang and Zhou dynasties, none other achieved their long history. Even those two only reached 500 and 800 years, though better than Han, who was later divided into Eastern and Western Han.  Ever since the Eastern Han, the clans spread their influence over the people and the …

“Choice pending, host.” “Host may choose between A Step into the Past, Twin of Brothers, Three Kingdoms, Little Li’s Flying Dagger and Water Margin.”(T/N: wuxia books.) The host soon came with the answer. Each time he had to choose from among five worlds. ‘Which is best though?’ ‘Twin of Brothers’ is filled with pre celestials, patriarchs and grandmasters.

“Host has 10,000 people and a 50 km wide domain, the standard to establish your nation. Please give it a name to reveal this powerful existence.” Zhong Yu pondered. ‘What’s a good name? Since I’m a cultivator, calling it Heavenly Court is fitting.’  The Heavenly Court controlled thousands of realms, looking after the yin and yang of the world, cowering …

While his cultivation method’s sole purpose was to replace the world in stealing that fortune. Taking a slice from right under its nose  This was the heaviest crime of all, the reason any monarch earned such hatred. A stable society that pursued humanity’s benefit let its people flourish. A strong dynasty earned it no fortune.  Order was the opposite of …

Seeing his character panel, Zhong Yu went straight for the shifting cultivation area. It had no cultivation methods but just a simple introduction. ‘A regent enjoys the wealth of the world, his hands hold ultimate control; an expert unto himself. By cultivating as well, he will sweep the world of its resources with his authority, gathering the great minds of …

With all these settled, Zhong Yu planned to put campaigning on hold for the next couple of months. He’d rather use this time to fine-comb his domain’s administration. It took him two months to get from establishing his seat of power to grow it to be a county. As more and more people would join, they would sooner or later …

The fall of the three tribes signified Zhong Yu’s dominance over the southeastern Lost Plains, his reach extending to 50 km and over ten thousand people.  Having achieved his population target, what remained was getting in his study and letting the system upgrade his domain.
