I Rose to the Highest Office, but the Ruler Betrayed Me, So I Crowned Myself King

Liu Mu transmigrates to a world where martial arts lead to divinity and becomes a Confucian cultivator in the State of Wei, one of the seven kingdoms.

Drawing on what he learned in his previous life, he establishes the imperial examination system, curbs the nobility, and boosts productivity, making Wei rich and powerful until it becomes the strongest of the seven kingdoms!

As for Liu Mu himself, he takes control of Wei's government at a young age and earns the title of Master Liu!

Just as he is preparing to accomplish great things, he is betrayed by the short-sighted nobles of Wei and the King of Wei. He is imprisoned, stripped of his spiritual bones, and hunted down!

At the end of his rope, he awakens a sign-in System and arrives in the State of Zhou, where he begins his rise to power!

He rises through the military ranks, building his power on three hundred cavalrymen. He slays the barbarians, pacifies the Northern Plains, conquers exotic beasts, and subjugates every sect under heaven!

Years later, the King of Wei comes to beg Liu Mu, offering to make him chancellor with the strength of the entire kingdom behind him, and even inviting him to stay in the imperial harem.

Liu Mu simply smiles and points to the millions of armored soldiers behind him. "I'm no longer interested in any of that..."

"Tell me, Your Majesty, have you heard the saying: The Son of Heaven is whoever has the strongest army and the finest horses?"
