#190 - Lin Han knows both himself and his enemy

Except for He Yan, who looked calm and collected, everyone else was intently listening to Qin Buqi's upcoming answer.

Qin Buqi pondered slightly and said, "If the opponent is only at the early stage of the Great Vehicle realm, I am confident."

Ying Gan laughed and said, "Haha, that's good then."

This concerns the reputation of the Great Ming Dynasty, especially during times of war between the two countries.

If this battle is lost, it will be a significant morale blow to the soldiers fighting on the front lines in the north.

The group looked through the private room towards the private room across from them.

The private room across from them was occupied by the Great Qin Dynasty group.

Qin Yu, the crown prince of the Great Qin Dynasty, was a man whose face was perpetually filled with melancholy, looking at everyone as if they owed him a great debt.

Ying Gan was somewhat puzzled by Qin Yu's appearance and said, "How could that old ghost from the Great Qin Dynasty choose such a fellow to be the crown prince?"

Ying Gan's doubts were reasonable.

During the war between the two countries, if it hadn't been for Ying Zhi's support from Qin Buqi.

Ying Gan would have initially chosen Ying Ye, who was more aggressive and ambitious.

However, the crown prince of the Great Qin Dynasty across from them clearly didn't seem to possess any aggression or ambition.

Instead, he seemed like... a big sucker.

Ying Gan commented, "To choose such a thing to inherit the throne, is that old ghost from the Great Qin Dynasty crazy or something?"

Ying Zhi, who was beside Ying Gan, said, "Father, one cannot judge a book by its cover. Perhaps this person has some unique or outstanding qualities."

Ying Gan said, "Perhaps that's the case."

As for the eight senior instructors surrounding Qin Yu.

They each had their own unique style, with the first-ranked Lin Han emitting a chilling aura, as if he were a block of ice.

During hot summer days, standing next to him would cause the temperature to drop by several degrees...

While the people from the Great Ming Dynasty were observing the people from the Great Qin Dynasty, the people from the Great Qin Dynasty were also observing them.

Yu Jiaolong, ranked eighth in the Great Qin Academy, was a loli who appeared to be only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Yu Jiaolong said to Qin Yu, "Your Highness, is that the emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty over there?"

"He doesn't seem like much, he doesn't even have as much presence as you do."

Qin Yu said seriously, "Yu Jiaolong, don't speak carelessly. The emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty is not to be underestimated."

Yu Jiaolong skipped over He Yan and the others, and sized up Qin Buqi, saying:

"This is the Qin Buqi that everyone has been talking about recently?"

"Apart from being a little handsome, he doesn't seem to be anything special."

Lin Han interjected, "This Qin Buqi is not simple. According to our spies in the Great Ming Dynasty."

"He recently obtained a hundred secret realms as a reward from the Great Ming Dynasty for some reason."

"During the process of going to obtain the secret realms, he was obstructed by Lin Sen, the city lord of the Eastern Senyuan City within the Great Ming Dynasty."

"After a disagreement, a great battle broke out. The city lord's mansion was destroyed, and the city lord Lin Sen died."

"After killing a city lord in the early stage of the Great Vehicle realm, he was not only unharmed under the protection of the Great Ming royal family, but also received a reward of one hundred million low-grade spirit stones."

Yu Jiaolong covered her mouth in surprise and said, "There was actually such a thing? If this happened in our Great Qin Dynasty, even with Brother Lin Han's status, he would not escape punishment!"

Yu Jiaofeng, the seventh-ranked senior instructor in the Great Qin Academy, thought for a moment and said, "If I remember correctly, Senyuan City should be the largest city in the east of the Great Ming Dynasty, right?"

Lin Han said, "It is indeed the largest city in the east of the Great Ming Dynasty."

Yu Jiaofeng said, "Killing such a crucial city lord is not the same as killing other city lords."

Yu Jiaolong said, "Brother Lin, quickly tell us why this person was not only unharmed after killing the city lord of Senyuan City, but also received a reward."

All the senior instructors in the private room focused their attention on Lin Han, and even the crown prince of the Great Qin Dynasty, Qin Yu, looked at Lin Han with interest, waiting for Lin Han's explanation.

Lin Han explained, "Do you see that young man next to the emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty, Ying Gan? That is Ying Zhi, the third prince of the current Great Ming Dynasty."

"He is also the person who will inherit the Great Ming throne in the future. Although he has not been officially named crown prince, his status within the Great Ming Dynasty is comparable to our Qin Yu."

Yu Jiaolong asked, "What does this have to do with Qin Buqi killing the city lord of Senyuan City?"

Lin Han continued, "Of course it has something to do with it. What you don't know is that not long ago, the Great Ming Dynasty actually determined that someone else would inherit the throne."

"That person was Ying Ye, Ying Zhi's eldest brother."

Yu Jiaofeng said, "Then why is Ying Zhi inheriting the throne now?"

Lin Han said, "Qin Buqi is inextricably linked to this matter. With Qin Buqi's help..."

Lin Han recounted everything Qin Buqi had done during this period, as if he were reciting a family treasure.

After hearing this, everyone's eyes were filled with disbelief.

Yu Jiaolong exclaimed, "To change the choice of successor to a dynasty with one's own strength, that's terrifying!"

At this moment, Lin Han revealed another shocking piece of news, "As far as I know, this person seems to have the support of an immortal behind him, so... you understand."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions on everyone's faces changed to varying degrees.

The weight of the word "immortal" was like a huge rock, heavily pressing down on everyone's hearts.

Qin Yu said, "No wonder this person was able to change the choice of successor to the Great Ming Dynasty, so that's how it is."

"Lin Han, how do you know so much about this person?"

Lin Han replied, "Your Highness, this person will be the biggest obstacle to our trip."

"As opponents, knowing yourself and your enemy is the only way to win every battle."

Qin Yu smiled and said, "Lin Han, you've put in the effort!"

Lin Han said, "Everything is for the Great Qin Dynasty to devour the surrounding countries as soon as possible. Your subject does not feel that it is an effort."

Qin Yu came to Lin Han's side and patted Lin Han's shoulder, saying, "You've worked hard."

Qin Yu was also somewhat curious about Qin Buqi.

First of all, their surnames were both Qin. Qin Yu had even searched through the family tree for this.

But he was unable to find anything in the family tree that connected him to Qin Buqi.

If Qin Buqi knew about Qin Yu's behavior of searching through the family tree, he would definitely laugh.

Qin Buqi came from Blue Star. How could he possibly find a family tree related to him in this place where they couldn't possibly be related.

Yu Jiaolong looked across and said, "I wonder who they will send out for the first match."

Yu Jiaofeng said, "At the beginning of Qin Buqi's entry into the Great Ming Academy, he killed three senior instructors. The number of people on both sides is uneven, so they will probably send Ye Hui, who is ranked sixth, to play."

Yu Jiaolong said to Lin Han, "Brother Lin Han, are we still proceeding according to the original plan?"

Lin Han said, "Everything will proceed according to the original plan. You will be the first to play, followed by your sister Yu Jiaofeng..."

Hearing this, Yu Jiaolong said excitedly, "I understand. While there's still time before the war, let's take a look at the new gadgets from the Great Ming Dynasty."

Yu Jiaolong's words can be said to have expressed the inner thoughts of everyone present.
