If I send you to join the army and marry a woman, will you conquer the Empress?

Azure Dragon Strength!

The technique has been mastered!

Everyone present was shocked.

It should be noted that Crown Prince Xia Yuanhao had cultivated for three years but had not yet reached the threshold of the first level.

Qin Feng mastered the technique in just one night?!

This is beyond being described as a prodigy; it's simply monstrous!

"No, impossible...this must be an illusion!"

Wang Chong was deathly pale, his body trembling uncontrollably, muttering to himself.

He was just now shouting that Qin Feng was no match for a master of internal energy.

In the blink of an eye, Qin Feng slapped them in the face in the most ruthless and unbelievable way.

"not good!"

Kneeling on the ground, Ning Xiao felt the suppression emanating from the depths of his bloodline, and his heart was pounding with fear!

He wanted to escape, but his body wouldn't obey him; under the azure dragon's might, he couldn't even stand up.

In this deathly silence.

Qin Feng made a move!

He didn't even use any fancy moves, just a simple punch forward!

"Bang!"

A highly refined cyan fist energy slammed into Ning Xiao's chest.

"Aaaaaah!"

Ning Xiao let out a scream that was not human, and like a kite with a broken string, he was blasted away by that domineering and unparalleled force!

boom!

He crashed into a pillar inside the hall, causing the pillar to break in half, sending splinters flying everywhere!

Ning Xiao slid to the ground like a lump of mud, his chest caved in, blood gushing from his mouth. He convulsed twice before completely losing consciousness.

One punch!

Just one punch!

Ning Xiao, the Crown Prince's most formidable general, known as "Bloody Hand Butcher," has been defeated!

The entire hall was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

The arrogant young masters who were just shouting were now ashen-faced and silent as cicadas in winter.

They looked at Qin Feng and felt a chill run from the soles of their feet straight to the top of their heads.

Is this guy even human?!

Qin Feng withdrew his fist, his expression unchanged, turned to look at the stiff-faced Crown Prince, and cupped his hands in greeting.

"Your Highness, I am so sorry."

"I lost control of my strength and hit you a little too hard, accidentally injuring you."

Please forgive me.

Qin Feng said "please forgive me," but his flat tone showed no sign of remorse whatsoever.

It was clearly directed at the Crown Prince—

"Your men are too weak!"

Everyone nearly coughed up blood.

You call this... an accidental injury?

His sternum was completely shattered, his internal organs were ruptured, and he crashed into a pillar. It was unclear whether he was dead or alive!

This is clearly a death sentence!

……

For a moment, everyone felt a sense of schadenfreude.

Given the Crown Prince's stubborn and vindictive nature, he would probably fly into a rage on the spot and order Qin Feng to be torn to pieces!

However, to everyone's surprise, it happened.

"Hahaha!"

After a brief silence, Xia Yuanhao suddenly burst into laughter, showing no trace of anger.

"Excellent! Excellent, Qin Feng! Excellent, Azure Dragon Transformation Technique!"

He strode down the steps, personally took Qin Feng's arm, and acted a hundred times more enthusiastically than before.

"Young Marquis, your martial arts are truly unparalleled, a real eye-opener for me! Ning Xiao's skills are inferior, his defeat is not unjust, what crime have you committed?!"

"Guards, drag this useless piece of trash away! Don't let it offend the young marquis's eyes!"

"Also, the singing and dancing have been cancelled!"

"Bring wine! I want to drink three hundred cups with the young marquis!"

This move completely stunned the young men around them.

Instead of being angry, the Crown Prince admired Qin Feng even more?

Soon, the mess was cleaned up, and new food and drinks were served.

Xia Yuanhao dismissed his attendants and personally poured Qin Feng a full cup of wine.

"Young Marquis, I offer you a toast."

Qin Feng raised his cup and drank it all in one gulp.

Xia Yuanhao put down his wine cup, gazed at Qin Feng, and suddenly asked, "Young Marquis, today we've gathered to discuss heroes over wine. Tell me, among the younger generation of the Great Xia army, who can truly be called a hero?"

Discussing heroes over wine?

Qin Feng sneered inwardly, but remained outwardly calm, pondering for a moment.

"Yang Lie, son of the mighty general, is born with superhuman strength."

"Zhao Kuo, the deputy commander of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, was the bravest in the entire army."

"Xiao Zhan, a captain in the Shence Army, is skilled in using surprise attacks..."

"These people are all young talents."

……

Upon hearing this, Xia Yuanhao shook his head and commented on each point.

"Yang Lie is nothing but a reckless brute, brave but reckless, arrogant and conceited, unlikely to amount to anything."

"Zhao Kuo, though brave, was cruel and tyrannical, and his killings were excessive; he was not fit to be a general."

"Xiao Zhan is prone to taking risky moves. What appear to be miraculous achievements are actually the work of a gambler. Sooner or later, he will suffer a great defeat!"

He belittled the person Qin Feng mentioned to the point of being worthless.

In my opinion, these people...cannot be considered heroes!

Qin Feng remained calm and followed up with, "Then, in Your Highness's opinion, who can be considered a hero?"

A glint of light finally appeared in Xia Yuanhao's eyes as he held up three fingers.

"In my opinion, there are only three true heroes in this world!"

"First, there is Ye Cunxin, the female war goddess and commander of the Vermilion Bird Army guarding the southern border!"

"At the age of twenty-four, she had already reached the level of a grandmaster in martial arts."

"Three years ago, in the Tianduan Mountains, he single-handedly slew three top Southern Barbarian warriors, killing tens of thousands of enemies and shaking the Southern Barbarians with his might! Such prowess truly makes him a hero!"

Qin Feng nodded.

Ye Cunxin's name is widely known.

The youngest martial arts grandmaster in the Great Xia Dynasty truly deserves the title of hero.

Xia Yuanhao continued, "Secondly, there is Huo Zilong, the vanguard general of the Northern Border Xuanjia Army!"

"This man is twenty-eight years old this year. He comes from a humble background and started as a soldier. Through his outstanding military achievements, he rose step by step to become a general."

"He was strict in disciplining his troops, always leading by example, and deeply respected by his soldiers. He once led eight hundred cavalrymen outside Yanmen Pass, breaking through a Xiongnu army of thirty thousand and killing the Xiongnu Chanyu's son in battle!"

"Such courage makes one a hero!"

Qin Feng nodded again.

He had also heard of Huo Zilong; he was a legendary figure.

Xia Yuanhao paused here, raised his wine glass, and stared intently at Qin Feng with his narrow eyes.

"As for the third hero..."

He deliberately dragged out the tone, keeping everyone in suspense.

"I originally thought it was Lin Xiao, the champion who was 'unbeatable throughout the capital'."

"But after meeting the young marquis today, I realized that compared to you, Lin Xiao is nothing but a skeleton in a tomb!"

"This third hero belongs to none other than you, Qin Feng!"

This tall hat is big and round.

Qin Feng immediately stood up, cupped his hands, and said, "Your Highness is too kind. I am unworthy of such praise."

"Young Master, there's no need for such modesty!"

Xia Yuanhao stood up and stood with his hands behind his back.

"Today, I will give you a chance to rise to prominence and achieve great success!"

He leaned closer to Qin Feng, lowered his voice, and spoke each word with irresistible allure.

"As the Crown Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, I formally invite you to join my camp!"

"Helping orphans leads to great achievements!"

"When I ascend the throne in the future, you will be credited with the greatest merit in supporting me, and I will surely appoint you as the Grand Marshal of the Nation, commanding all the armies of the realm! Your rank will be even higher than that of your father, the Marquis of Loyalty and Valor!"

"At that time, you, Qin Feng, will be second only to the emperor, above all others!"
