What does it mean to be a tyrant? It means neither arrogance nor timidity, neither servility nor condescension, yet sweeping away every obstacle with a laugh. After seeing his elder brother, Ye Linfeng, murdered, the young Kang Xin abandons his gifts and gives up the life he once spent wandering among poetry and artistic pursuits. Years ago, I, Kang Xin, was a renowned genius whose every word could shake the world. Now I can create my own spiritual arts and forge a Dominant Body. From that day on, I will shake Yegu Valley, cut down the evil bears of Xiong Mountain, pass through the Blood Tiger Alliance, unite the fifty prefectures of the Starshine Kingdom from within, and make peace with the nine regions of the Starfeather Continent beyond its borders, all as I stride toward the path of the Great Emperor.
