Chapter 65 What is a Heavy Responsibility

Looking at his attribute list, Qin Jun was very satisfied. If he performed well at the upcoming genius banquet, he could successfully advance and even have a chance to draw a prize.

"What are you thinking? Worried that you won't be able to surpass the disciples of the three major sects?" The voice of the Emperor Qian pulled Qin Jun's thoughts back to reality, and he quickly put away the attribute list.

Only he could see the attribute list, and others would think he was lost in thought.

"How is that possible! Just the three major sects, even the kingdom's number one genius, Zhuo Junjie, is my defeated opponent!" Qin Jun confidently declared.

"Oh? You defeated Zhuo Junjie?" Emperor Qian suddenly became interested. The royal scouts couldn't infiltrate the Xuanling Sect, so he had only heard of a mysterious genius defeating Zhuo Junjie, without associating that mysterious genius with Qin Jun.

Now, hearing that Qin Jun had defeated Zhuo Junjie, he sat up straight.

The talent for refining qi among the royal offspring had always been low, with Qin Yu being slightly better, but even after joining the Purple Light Sect, he couldn't be considered a top-tier talent within the sect.

This had always been a sore point for Emperor Qian. His father, the founding emperor of the Qian Yue Kingdom, was a true powerhouse, and the Qian Yue Kingdom was entirely built by his iron fist.

Now, seeing that Qin Jun not only had the ability to subdue strong individuals but also had extremely strong talent for refining qi, how could he not be excited?

"Well, the situation was like this at the time..." Qin Jun briefly recounted the events, concealing the Thirty-Six Changes of the Heavenly Gang, only mentioning that he had used some means. Emperor Qian couldn't help but sigh. Even the number one genius could have a day of failure, and it was at the hands of someone like Qin Jun.

If Qin Jun knew his thoughts, he would definitely not agree: "Hey, hey, hey, this is called being resourceful, not being a villain!"

"Alright, you can go now. The genius banquet will be held in a week, and after it ends, Guan Yu can go to Yuguang City to resume his duties. For now, let Shen Yan take you to select one hundred palace guards!" Emperor Qian waved his hand. Although he was very curious about Qin Jun, there were too many state affairs piled up, and he didn't have time to continue chatting with Qin Jun.

"Alright!"

Qin Jun responded in a haphazard manner and then turned and left, leaving Emperor Qian feeling both angry and amused.

"Never mind, I can't hold on for much longer anyway, so why bother with trivial matters." Emperor Qian shook his head and smiled. He knew his own body best. In the past, he had always been wary of the matter of the crown prince, but now he urgently needed a crown prince to appear. He couldn't let the Qian family's kingdom be destroyed by his own hands.

Among the many princes, only Qin Yu had the most imperial temperament and means, but Qin Yu's methods were too cruel. If he became the emperor, the other princes would undoubtedly die, and Qin Yu would also follow his old path of passive policies.

Now that Qin Jun had appeared, it gave him new hope. Over the years, he had also reflected on his administrative methods, which were indeed inappropriate. If this continued, the Qian Yue Kingdom would inevitably be swallowed up by other countries. So he had directly excluded Qin Yu and planned to support Qin Jun.

From the fact that Qin Jun had eradicated the Cheng family in Qingtan City, it could be seen that there was a sense of righteousness in Qin Jun's heart.

In addition, with Guan Yu and Daji, two super strong individuals, serving under Qin Jun, perhaps Qin Jun could lead the Qian Yue Kingdom to a new era of prosperity.

Then Emperor Qian cleared his mind of these thoughts and walked into the adjacent study.

On the other hand, under the guidance of Shen Yan, Qin Jun left the palace. Most of the palace guards were usually training, and the training grounds were located near the palace in the Wangdu Barracks, so they could respond to sudden tasks at any time.

The number of palace guards was not limited, but the requirements were very strict. They not only needed to have at least the cultivation of the fourth level of refining qi but also had to have military experience and undergo special training to qualify to join the palace guards.

Soon, they arrived at the area where the palace guards were located. However, Qin Jun saw a figure that disgusted him, and it was none other than Qin Yu.

The news in the palace was circulated widely. The palace maids and eunuchs were important channels for spreading news. When he learned that Emperor Qian was going to allocate one hundred palace guards to Qin Jun, Qin Yu was so shocked that he jumped out of bed and quickly came to the Wangdu Barracks.

"Third brother, how come you have time to visit me?" Qin Yu's pale, handsome face showed a surprised smile, but in reality, he cursed Qin Jun countless times in his heart.

Lord Qin raised his eyebrows and asked with a righteous tone, "Younger brother, what kind of talk is this? The military camp belongs to the entire kingdom! Do you want to rebel?"

His words made everyone around him jump in shock. This Third Prince really dares to say anything!

Qin Yu was so angry that his mouth twitched. He wished he could slap his past self for humbly calling himself "younger brother," which led Qin Jun to address him like this.

"Younger brother, you are truly eloquent and sharp-tongued, making me have to admire you," Qin Yu forced a smile, trying to appear natural, but it was obvious to others that he had fallen short.

Qin Jun waved his hand and said directly, "Pick out the strongest one hundred soldiers from the Forbidden Guard for me!"

Dominating!

He didn't even discuss it with Qin Yu, just demanded the men.

Qin Yu was on the verge of exploding. He gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid this doesn't comply with the rules, does it? Although Father has granted you one hundred members of the Forbidden Guard, he didn't allow you to choose at will. The strongest one hundred soldiers bear heavy responsibilities. How can they be specifically assigned to assist you?"

"Isn't protecting me a heavy responsibility? I am the only prince who has been granted the title of king, and in the future, I may even go further!" Qin Jun glared, with an expression that seemed to say, "Why don't you recognize my worth?"

Qin Yu's heart ached at his words. This guy's speech was full of showing off and arrogance, although it was very brainless, it made him at a loss for how to refute.
