i was going to write this but you definitely beat me to it

i thought he would have tried billing the father for his son's negligence

since the time when he first met he was easily able to breeze past zhou dunce. Now MC has evolved his physique two of 3 levels, upgrade from rank 3 to 5 alchemist (spirit power on par with martial emperor), and leveled up a realm. Because he cultivates the trinity every realm bring exponential increase compare to someone who only cultivate 1....

Moral: Stompfest

lol... They mentioned martial emperor... There's for sure one who is going to show up... Probably inflated though through the technique zhuo family is doing for their young master

You relatives must have fucked a spirit beast at some point 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
...
Those who cant remember, Meng Wu is the blonde who was offered money to save her brother who has heaven and earth poison body to set up MC the was touched in a dirty way in school arc. She then was seen being bullied by MC by alchemist so he stood up for her and was thrown in family prison by "homosexual" young master. She later told everyone where he was. Then was promoted to territory administrator when MC became king. Due to a feud from killing young master from Xing-whatever family was severely wounded. MC then started to search for the wood ingredient since to save her

1 punch man

dudes about to get burned

i sense MC escaping through the rainbow mist cloud for the 2nd time in life

still young at the fresh age of 64

i feel like this is the first story to ever openly admit that all martial artist clans are just low key bandits

Gotta love when they blur or put words over skin cleavage but will openly draw it when a shirt is over the area

why do i hear the dark side theme song from Star Wars when he released his war vehicles

a genius comedian really

Edmond, how often does the MC really start stuff. Mc treated friends well since the beginning. Fatty, stick dude, princess, state guardian luo, grandpa, dad, the only thing thats different is he allowed people to show loyalty to his strength to stand by him. Ie allowing leeches to attach to him. He's using the people who are loyal to him. Example i teach you this martial art you become my supplemental strength.
Below is a list of events which will be covered so future readers don't have plots ruined.
...
MC neuters 2 guys after they start the fight, school gang
...
To get revenge gang leader tries to fight him, then gets robbed
...
Realizing gang leader can't fight physically tries to frame him by get set up instead
...
brother of gang leader challenges MC to cripple him, get crippled instead
...
The slave who inherited Li name attempted to take over the family, was setup as an assassin
...
prince attempted to kill him, got robbed, beat, and thwarted every step of the way
...
While stopping the "invasion" he discovers Huowu Empire trying to still his empires treasures and kills 3 in the process
...
The MC fought the tyranny of the zhuo family for stepping into his empires business, then swore to kill of the family if they touch the princess who was one of his close supporters in school
...
He went to HIS city, had his friends pick up ingredients, which were to save someone that threw their life away for him, but it was stolen (cheng family) and then got threatened after confronting the thief. At that time he acted upon the threat but was stopped. They came back and was threatened again so he killed them all
...
Went to the action got outbid by an enemy then killed them. Fairly enough this is already a continuous feud so its hard to say it was stated by MC. Plus who would let their opponent increase their strength in a fight to the death. Everyone should know villain in going to try to kill him so why wouldn't it be a deathmatch
...
MC organized enlistment with clear rule, but people still tried to steal from him so they were executed.
...
MC steals ki from the mountains with his array

feet wet? That fucker kicks you in to the deep end with no remorse

anyone else read that as mithssstake (mistake)

ohhhhhh? He's running to hand him the cauldron? How kind!

the way he talked out that sword i feel like he only wants it so people dont find out about his embarrassing mistakes from the past

everyone with smile face sticks are just prepared for his outrageous acts now

To sum up what others said
An empire is a body of multiple kingdoms
