Become a king right from the start, beginning with receiving rewards from all the heavens.

The demise of Daewoo served as a wake-up call for the world's dominant powers.

Moreover, two Heavenly Dao avatars also perished in this great battle.

This is the scene that many people in the Dragon Transformation Realm fear the most.

If the Great Xia dares to destroy even the Heavenly Dao's avatar, what else wouldn't they dare to do?

From that moment on, the eyes of all the major powers were on the Eastern Continent.

They were incredibly curious about what the Great Xia Dynasty planned to do next.

...

Meanwhile, a grand celebration was held within the Great Xia Dynasty.

People everywhere went out of their homes, spending lavishly and celebrating extravagantly.

"Haha, our Great Xia has made history!"

...

"What kind of bullshit alliance is this? One of the overlords was wiped out by our Great Xia."

...

"From this day forward, what does it matter if I'm at odds with the whole world!"

...

At this moment, the people of Great Xia were filled with unparalleled pride and self-satisfaction.

Even the Heavenly Dao's avatar was destroyed by our Great Xia. What else in this world is there for our Great Xia to fear?

Is the Way of Heaven powerful? Of course it is.

But so what? He could only watch helplessly as his clone was destroyed, yet he dared not wake up to seek revenge.

From this moment on, the people of Great Xia were freed from the illusions surrounding the Heavenly Dao!

...

Rumble!!

The Great Wall began to expand, extending along the former frontier of the Great Yu Dynasty.

In just a few moments, the entire Daewoo was encircled inside.

Daewoo is gone.

But the war has not completely ended.

Because Xia Zhaoyan wanted to conduct a purge inside Dayu.

Those forces with bad reputations were all targets of his elimination.

These forces remaining in Great Xia would bring no benefit whatsoever to Great Xia.

Not only do they consume resources, but they also lack loyalty to the court and the royal family.

...

On this day, a court assembly was held in the Chaotian Hall.

All the officials wore smiles, and the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty had more than doubled.

This means they have more power, and at the same time, it also means that the Great Xia has more resources.

"Your Majesty, the purge of forces within the newly expanded territories has been completed."

Meng Zhou bowed as he reported.

"A total of more than 6,000 forces were wiped out, the weakest of which were at the Grandmaster level."

"Of the original indigenous cultivation forces of the Great Universe, less than 10% remain today."

"Your Majesty, I humbly request that you order the relocation of a portion of our forces from our homeland to new territories to establish themselves and develop."

Everyone understood the Right Chancellor's final meaning.

After all, Daewoo is a newly conquered territory, and there are bound to be people who are loyal to Daewoo.

Moreover, the number is not small.

It's impossible to kill all of them.

Besides, Xia Zhaoyan is also very confident.

I believe that after governing the area, it will only take a few years for the local people to completely forget about Daewoo.

...

As the court session drew to a close, Xia Zhaoyan began to make his announcement.

"Many outstanding generals emerged during this war of national annihilation."

"Adding to the previous twenty-five honorary titles, this time I will allocate fifty titles for bestowal!"

He gestured for Feng Bao to begin reading the imperial edict.

"My lords, listen to my decree: Expanding territory has always been a monumental achievement."

"Our Great Xia was able to destroy the Great Yu entirely thanks to the bravery of our soldiers."

"Today, Guo Jing is granted the title of Viscount for life, Zhang Juzheng is granted the title of Viscount for life, and Xu Da is granted the title of Viscount for life..."

A long list of names was read out, totaling fifty people who were granted titles.

However, the officials also discovered that these titles were all for life.

None of them were hereditary titles.

There are eight viscounts and the remaining forty-two are barons.

Everyone came to their senses and clearly felt how strict His Majesty was regarding the titles.

The merit of conquering a country can only be awarded the title of baron or viscount, which is a lifelong title and cannot benefit future generations.

"Gentlemen, a lifetime title is not the end. With accumulated merit, it can be upgraded to a hereditary title."

Of course, hereditary titles are also divided into hereditary with reduced rank and hereditary.

In short, true hereditary succession is certainly very difficult to obtain.

Are there any benefits to having a title in the Great Xia Dynasty? Of course there are.

Not only will they receive an extra salary, but they will also benefit from tax breaks and various other visible and invisible advantages.

Most importantly, it's a symbol of status!

...

The officials looked at those who had been granted titles with envious eyes.

Even if it's just a lifetime title, it's enough to make people incredibly envious.

"Gentlemen, the destruction of the Great Yu has cleared the way for us to attack the demon race."

"Now all that's left is the Chaotic Domain. Once we take over that chaotic land, our Great Xia's iron cavalry can march straight towards the demon world."

"Therefore, I have decided that in ten days, I will trample the Chaotic Domain!"

...

At this moment, a minister from the military stepped forward and bowed.

"Your Majesty, what should be done with the forces in the Chaotic Domain?"

Xia Zhaoyan recalled the situation in the Chaotic Domain.

It can be said to be the gathering place of all sinners from the Eastern and Northern Continents.

Moreover, there is also the existence of the demon race.

The Great Xia Dynasty would certainly not accept these sinners.

Even if there are good people, it's impossible for Da Xia to investigate and distinguish them one by one.

They can only blame themselves for choosing the Chaotic Domain; this world is just that unfair.

He then looked at the military personnel.

"All forces in the Chaotic Domain have been annihilated!"

"Our Great Xia has no need for their allegiance!"

...

The news of the conferment of titles spread throughout the Great Xia Dynasty, making cultivators in the common people even more eager to join the army.

It's fine if I didn't have the opportunity before.

Now, the opportunity is right in front of us.

If you don't give it your all, you've lived a wasted life.

Let alone cultivators, even ordinary people wish they could embark on the path of cultivation immediately.

Because nowadays, only cultivators are eligible for military service.

This is obviously extremely unfair to ordinary people, but there's nothing that can be done about it.

An army composed of cultivators has a high survival rate on the battlefield and is far more effective at killing enemies than ordinary people.

Similarly, Xia Zhaoyan prevented ordinary people from joining the army in order to protect them.

"Wait a little longer. After I destroy the Heavenly Dao and transform the Great Xia into a Dynasty of Fortune, you will all be able to embark on the path of cultivation."

Looking at the distant sky, Xia Zhaoyan could only apologize to the ordinary people for the time being.

Although it is unknown how long it will take to establish a dynasty, during this time, a large number of ordinary people will certainly die of old age.

But that's just how cruel this world is.

"Human strength will eventually run out, just as mountains may one day collapse."

"I cannot force all of you to embark on the path of cultivation right now, but I swear that your descendants will definitely do so."

I can't just let ordinary people join the army to take care of them.

That's not taking care of them, that's pushing them into a fire pit.

Sometimes, living an ordinary life is just fine.

...

Ten days have passed in the blink of an eye!

On the border of the Great Xia Dynasty, city gate passages suddenly appeared at the lower end of the Great Wall.

The next moment, troops marched out of the Great Wall.

At the same time, all the major powers in the world also received the news.

What?! The Great Xia has launched another military campaign?!

Within the Bu Tian Sect, many cultivators at the Dragon Transformation Realm were utterly shocked.

How long has it been since the Great Yu was destroyed, and the Great Xia has already sent troops again?

Which faction are they planning to attack?

...

The founder of the Bu Tian Sect shook his head, his face solemn.

"They are not attacking any particular faction."

"Instead, they're preparing to attack the entire Chaotic Domain!"
