If Heaven hadn't given birth to me, I would be arrogant.

“This…” Fox’s tone was filled with anger at being tricked: “How could you break a bird’s egg?”

"Did I say we shouldn't break bird eggs?" Zong Ze didn't even glance at Fox. "Victory isn't just about strength; sometimes, wisdom plays a more important role!"

"This line sounds so familiar!" Long Xiaotian scratched his head, then suddenly realized something and quickly said, "It doesn't count, Zong Ze, you're cheating! This challenge doesn't stand!"

"Doesn't count?" Zong Ze smiled faintly. "Looks like someone just lied! But I can give you another chance! Aren't you very strong?"

"Of course!" Long Xiaotian assumed Zong Ze would choose force, and quickly replied, "But don't worry, I'll suppress my strength against you, I definitely won't kill you with one punch! Hahaha..."

Zong Ze ignored Long Xiaotian and Fox's laughter and continued, "Since you're so strong, if I give you a straw, can you throw it across a ten-meter-wide river?"

"Nonsense, of course I can! I could throw a hundred-pound boulder over there, let alone a straw!" Long Xiaotian rarely had the chance to show off in front of Han Li, so how could he not seize the opportunity?

"Alright, you lost. Go back and read more books!" Zongze suddenly turned and walked towards the library door. As he walked, he shook his head and muttered to himself, "A prince who doesn't even know the history of his own country? Alas, the tragedy of the nation..."

"Zong Ze, you stop right there!" Long Xiaotian shouted as he saw Zong Ze about to leave. "You haven't accepted my challenge yet!"

"You've already lost!" Han Li stepped forward with a bright smile and said, "Just as Zong Ze said, go back and read some books. The two questions Zong Ze asked you were exactly the methods that the Sage Tengyun used to defeat the challenger back then!" After saying that, Han Li skipped and hopped after Zong Ze!

Just as he reached the door, Han Li turned back and said, "Since the prince has come from afar as a guest, I'll share some knowledge with you. The words Zong Ze just said that sounded familiar to you are the exact words of the Sage Tengyun. And as far as I know, these words are engraved on the main gate of your Dragon Soaring Empire's palace!"

Zongze walked out of the library. The little black pig had woken up at some point and didn't even need Zongze to call it. It grunted and followed behind Zongze, its chubby little bottom jiggling as it ran, and its pointed little tail wagging incessantly.

Seeing the little black pig's gait, Hanli, who had followed behind, couldn't help but chuckle. The little black pig turned around and glanced at Princess Hanli, seemingly able to tell that she was laughing at it. Its bottom wiggled even more vigorously and trembled even more violently!

"Haha, our Zong family's genius is back? How was it? What did you gain at the academy today?" As Zong Ze walked into the Zong family mansion, a man who looked very similar to Zong Ze, around thirty years old, suddenly walked out from a small door next to the main gate of the training ground and laughed loudly.

"Father, I've told you not to call me a genius. It's a really nasty word, it sounds like I'm a born idiot!" Looking at the man who was shirtless and wearing the uniform trousers of the military, Zong Ze couldn't help but smile wryly. "Besides, with such a loud voice, aren't you afraid that others will hear us and laugh at us?"

"A joke? Who dares to laugh at me?" The man glared and shouted, "Being able to give birth to you is my achievement. The name your grandfather gave me proves how awesome I am. Although my son can't cultivate martial arts or magic, he's a master of governance, comparable to a soaring sage! That's what a magnificent life is like!"
