The Path to Empire in the Three Kingdoms

Li Xin unexpectedly transmigrates into the Three Kingdoms holographic game he created,

only to discover, to his dismay, that his level cap is determined by the highest office held by one of his subordinates,

and that appointments to office must come from historical figures.

To level up quickly, Li Xin devotes himself to recruiting renowned generals, but accidentally unlocks “Sandbox Mode.”

Guan Yu: “My lord, lend me three thousand elite troops. I'll solo Xu Chu!”

Lu Bu: “Who dares compete with me for my lord? My Sky Piercer isn't for show!”

When other players enter the game, they are completely dumbfounded by this absurd bunch of generals:

“Did this game hire real actors for its NPCs?!”
