Though Baiyue was a small state, it was by no means cut off from the world.

They were still aware of news from outside.

Tian Ze and the others were hardly ignorant fools.

Even a thick-headed brute like Unrivaled Ghost

had heard of the Ghost Valley School.

"When angered, the feudal lords tremble; when at peace, all under heaven falls silent."

That was no small praise.

Yet the disciples of the Ghost Valley School throughout the ages had lived up to those words.

Su Qin, Zhang Yi.

Sun Bin, Pang Juan.

Which one of them had not been a renowned figure?

Which one had not possessed the talent to govern a state?

Of course, the Ghost Valley School's core philosophy lay in influencing the overall situation of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States eras by manipulating the games played between the various states.

They were more suited to chaotic times than peaceful ones.

But that aptitude was only relative to their own abilities. In truth, even when governing in times of peace—a field they were supposedly less adept at—they could still rival some renowned ministers. All one could say was that this world was one giant ramshackle troupe. As long as everyone else behaved absurdly enough, any normal person would appear rational, clear-headed, dependable, and worthy of great responsibility.

Take the current Han Kingdom, for example.

No matter how mediocre Wei Zhuang was,

if he were placed in Ji Wuye's position,

he would still perform better than Ji Wuye.

That said, the current Wei Zhuang was still somewhat inexperienced. The same went for Gai Nie. They were not yet qualified to inherit Guiguzi's title. Compared to the current Guiguzi—their master—they still had a certain gap to make up, and they also lacked a decisive duel between victory and defeat.
