Dragon Soul of the Ming

In a crumbling empire teetering on chaos, a disgraced scholar rises from ruin to reshape destiny itself. Armed with uncanny foresight, forbidden knowledge, and a will forged in betrayal, he navigates deadly courts, brutal battlefields, and shadowy alliances. Through the sacred path of exams, the ruthless game of commerce, and the bloody climb of military glory, he builds power from nothing—defying fate, outmaneuvering enemies, and awakening an ancient legacy within his blood. Amidst war, intrigue, and heart-wrenching choices, his journey blazes with ambition, sacrifice, and the fierce bonds of loyalty and love. This is historical epic reimagined: where every victory demands a price, and only the relentless can save a dying world.
