Warring States: Demoted to Commoner, I Recruit the Worthy to Boost Great Qin's Destiny

Ying Si, the crown prince of Qin, wakes up one morning as a commoner on the streets. But no one knows that he's bound to an overpowered cheat, the Recruit Talent for the State System: every top-tier talent he recruits adds a hundred years to Qin's national fortune, and he also gets heavenly opportunities like divine weapons, secret arts, and legendary steeds!

Faced with mockery from the court and scorn from all under heaven, Ying Si has the last laugh. Being demoted to a commoner is the perfect excuse for a state-funded tour and a chance to strip the Six States of everything they have.

His first stop: a direct assault on his sworn enemy, Great Liang in Wei!

When the people of Wei boast, "Qin is doomed," he exposes Pang Juan's military legend as nothing but hot air. A few words are enough to make Gongsun Yan, a top disciple of the Ghost Valley who has suffered for years, bow down and pledge allegiance. Qin's national fortune rises by 100 years! The secret technique for purifying sea salt is acquired!

At court, he debates the scholars: "The people of Qin have iron bones. We'd rather smash into a wall than turn back!"

In the go club, he turns the tide: "Today, I'll represent Qin and flip this game of the world on its head!" From an abandoned pawn on the street to a player stirring up the Seven States, Ying Si has just one goal: seize all the elite talents of the Six States and let Qin devour the entire world!
