Tian Wen rises from an illegitimate son branded a “harbinger of disaster”:
A vicious servant comes knocking? He breaks the man's legs without a second thought.
Powerful local clans rebel? He confiscates their estates and brings them to justice without mercy.
The crown prince frames him? He turns the prince's schemes to his advantage and secures his position!
From a disgraced, cast-off child everyone despises as a harbinger of disaster, to the hope of the Tian clan, and then to a hegemon who stirs the kingdoms into turmoil.
I, Lord Mengchang, Tian Wen, will use knowledge to overcome crisis after crisis, gather the finest talent under heaven, and, amid the flames of war in the Warring States period, avert the tragedy of my clan's destruction and my own death. I will forge a different path to supremacy!
Watch Tian Wen draw on his wealth of strategy,
Gather worthy men, secure Xueyi, and protect the people!
In this age of chaos, he will write a legend of his own!
