Shuoye Xinqi

Book title: Shuoye New Banner This is a world where martial arts masters can walk through water, fly through the air, and destroy cities with one hand. Shen Yan was born in a poor village on the border of the kingdom. He practiced martial arts since he was a child, but he only had the most ordinary bones. When he was fifteen years old, he took the martial arts exam with the hope of his whole family. His companions were promoted one after another, but he was blocked. The powerless young man had no choice but to turn to business, starting as a clerk in the accounting office, traveling through the desert, exploring trade routes, amassing goods and wealth, and finally finding another way out for himself. But when the wealthy family colluded with the government and took away everything he had accumulated over the years on a single charge, Shen Yan finally understood—— In this world, wealth that is not protected by strength is only temporarily kept for the strong; wealth that is not protected by weapons is just waste paper that can be altered by others. So he began to read the law, study military books, observe people's hearts, and practice local bravery. From a commercial vehicle to a trade route, from a border village to an alliance of hundreds of villages, from hiding grain to protect yourself to raising a flag to rebel against the king. He is not the strongest warrior in the world, but he allows the strongest warrior in the world to fight for him; he can sacrifice irrelevant people, but he is willing to make enemies of the entire world for those who truly trust him. Many years later, when the shadows of the three empires once again shrouded the nations, the thin boy who had been eliminated from the martial arts examination was already standing at the end of the Sea of ​​Embers, with the newly established kingdom and millions of soldiers behind him. This time, what he wants to break is not just a decadent dynasty.
