Western Fantasy: Red Dragon Bloodline, Collecting Powerful Female Subordinates

After transmigrating as the eighth son of the Violetthorn Earl's family, Su Li opens his eyes to face the ultimate test: if he can't cross the Apprentice Knight threshold by tomorrow, he'll be thrown out. The moment his Daily Intelligence System activates, he digs a Bloodthorn Fruit out of a pile of rotten apples and swallows it. His Red Dragon bloodline awakens on the spot, and he qualifies as an Apprentice Knight. Count Suna's jaw drops. "You actually broke through on the very last day?" But the real show is still to come: a System notification reveals that a half-elf girl is hidden in the slave market at Malai Castle. She has the bloodline of an Ice Valkyrie lying dormant within her and is guaranteed to become a Champion Knight. Su Li pays five gold coins to claim her and hands her a top-tier breathing technique. "Train with this. You'll break through today." Knight Schwartz flies into a rage. "Has the young master lost his mind? How can a slave become a knight?!" By evening, Hilde breaks through on the spot in under two hours. Schwartz is utterly dumbfounded, and she even helps the female warrior Reeve overcome her bottleneck. Su Li leans against the courtyard wall as the camp full of rowdy soldiers mocks him for being unable to recruit anyone. He counts on his fingers: Red Dragon bloodline, a Champion in the making, and an awakened Frostbear. In three days, he's assembled half a national team.
