Each Soldier Adds a Year of Cultivation, and Three Million Troops Are Loyal

[Republic-era martial arts + a chaotic age of monster martial arts + power progression + army-building + young warlord] In the eighth year of the Great New Era, warlords vie for power at home while the East Sea Trading Company circles the country from abroad. Steam-powered ironclads devour the nation’s strength. Foreigners destroy temples, sever dragon veins, and ban martial arts. The supernatural runs rampant, and the nation teeters on the brink of annihilation! Zhang Jingnian, eldest legitimate son of the Northern Court’s marshal, has mediocre natural talent and is mocked as a “good-for-nothing.” Then he awakens the Hegemony System. [Every loyal soldier under your command provides one year of cultivation each day!] [Current loyal soldiers: 3 million.] [Daily cultivation provided: 3 million years!] Starting from a cannon-fodder battalion that nobody cares about, he recruits troublemakers, subdues haunted territories, suppresses bandits, and builds an iron army, one step at a time. When three million troops shout “Loyalty!” as one He has already become the strongest Celestial in the land. When the evil spirits of the Eastern Seas attack, he shatters the void and ascends as the Great Sage Who Subdues the Seas. Alone, he can quell the divine realms in every direction!
