The Peerless Emperor

Seeing everyone reluctant to leave, Lin Qian could only shake his head helplessly: "If that's the case, just stay and play a little longer."

"Long live Your Majesty, hahaha!" The Huaxia Alliance students all raised their hands and cheered excitedly as they dispersed.

Watching everyone leave, Lin Qian revealed a proud smile. The attitude of the Huaxia Alliance students clearly demonstrated the immense attraction of the Huaxia Empire, making them reluctant to leave.

The allure of the Huaxia Empire is just like this.

A peaceful and harmonious atmosphere, a world of mutual progress, which no one can refuse.

"Compared to the Huaxia Empire, the Huaqiong Empire really can't compete." Standing beside Lin Qian, looking at the scenery ahead, Liu Shimin exclaimed, "Your Majesty, I really didn't expect that giving could actually benefit oneself."

"Oh?" Lin Qian glanced at Liu Shimin beside him, then continued to look ahead, asking, "Why is it incomparable? From the apparent strength, the Huaxia Empire seems far inferior to the Huaqiong Empire, doesn't it?"

Liu Shimin gave a bitter smile, still gazing into the distance, as if seeing the beautiful landscapes of Soul Martial Star: "It's only a matter of time before the Huaqiong Empire is surpassed. That decaying empire will be better off gone. I even believe following Your Majesty and joining the Huaxia Empire couldn't be a better move."

"In the empire, soul martial artists don't need to worry about possessing valuable treasures being plundered. The Imperial Army will catch and execute those who plunder with thunderous means."

"Moreover, even if they acquire such treasures, they will receive this kind of protection, so naturally, they won't oppose such rules. According to Your Majesty's words, private property is sacred and inviolable, deserving of protection, isn't it?"

Lin Qian nodded silently and said, "This way, they don't have to be anxious about obtaining something valuable only to hide it in fear; how else can they improve in such an environment, how can cultivation progress quickly?"

Liu Shimin sighed in admiration, "This is where Your Majesty's brilliance lies. Whether it's soul artifact skills, as long as you put in the effort, you can farm them in the dungeons, or through contribution, exchange what you want directly from the empire's official resources."

"With enough contribution, Your Majesty might even lend a helping hand."

"In such a stable environment, where acquiring wealth is straightforward, everyone will strive to maintain it, strengthening the empire. Only a strong empire can bring them more benefits." At this, Liu Shimin looked at the busy crowd below, the prosperous city, "Everyone contributes their strength to the empire, and the empire reciprocates."

"Whereas the Huaqiong Empire continues to plunder lower-level soul martial artists to satisfy the needs of the higher-ups, it's incomparable." In response, Liu Shimin shook his head in disappointment with the Huaqiong Empire, "If possible, one day, I truly hope to reform the Huaqiong Empire."

Liu Shimin's eyes were resolute, clearly inspired by the model of the Huaxia Empire.

It's not just him; the students of the Huaxia Alliance had never dared to imagine such a force existed in the world.

Every citizen has their own job, and no matter the race, they can all use their talents.

Their children enter different academies one by one from a young age to study various subjects, learning and being cultivated holistically.

No matter what your talent is, besides cultivation, literacy, pills, arrays, talismans, and the like, all these should be encountered.

Not seeking mastery, but rather familiarity, ensuring not to be clueless.

Finally, based on talent tests, students enter special universities for in-depth cultivation, studying deeper knowledge in corresponding array, artifact refining, and other departments.

An orderly, systematized, and step-by-step approach, with classroom-based learning and using dungeon environments for practice, the Education Department continuously produces all-round talents for the Huaxia Empire.

In the eyes of Huaxia Alliance students, a hundred years hence, the entire Huaxia Empire will see everyone become standalone soul martial artists, all of high quality.

Just how terrifying will such a stronger empire be?

It's essentially an impregnable fortress. Any hostile force trying to infiltrate the Huaxia Empire will likely face an immense cost.

In the entire Huaxia Empire, everyone has some knowledge of arrays, pills, etc., and even walking down the street, one might encounter a genius in arrays or artifact refining.

If hostile forces attempt sabotage, newly set traps might be instantly discovered before they can even poison successfully.

Because the general population of the empire is so skilled, discretion is impossible.

After arriving in the Huaxia Empire, they understood why their residing city seemed like a village compared to these unique hundred-story buildings rising from the ground.

On broad, bright streets, various strange vehicles and soul beast mounts travel in an orderly fashion, bustling and lively.

High above, cloud boats fly back and forth, transporting travelers.

Even the citizens of the Huaxia Empire can have food delivered without leaving home, just needing to offer a bit of recompense to the Spirit Hoof Clan's Swift-Wind service.

There are many cultivation sites everywhere, such as gravity rooms and simulated combat canyons; it's said there are ranking seasons, the top soul martial artists called Kings, receiving rewards—a fascinating encouragement style.

Such creative incentives fuel strong competitiveness.

Besides their intense cultivation, there are plenty of relaxation and entertainment opportunities like amusement parks and cinemas, broadening horizons.

The empire also transformed beautiful scenic spots into tourist attractions and parks, making it hard for visitors to part.

Such magical places of amusement leave Huaxia Alliance students loathe to return to the Saint Institute, a sentiment that's understandable.

It's also because past cultivation was indeed too tense, and it's time for some relaxation. That's why Lin Qian agreed to let them stay and play here so that they might advance further in their training after relaxing.

Lin Qian still needs to rely on them for the sacred mandate competition, as their strength will increase the odds of his success in securing it.

This time, the more critical thing in the sacred mandate competition is relying on oneself.

As for leaving the Saint Institute for so long, despite it not being a rest day, would there be a problem? Naturally, there won't be, for Lin Qian's wife's master is the current headmaster, the creator of the Saint Institute, who remains unwilling to leave the Huaxia Empire. What could go wrong?

Yet Lin Qian was unaware that at a dark place on the edge of Soul Martial Star, countless figures appeared.
