Seeing that Qian Renxue was speechless, Yu Tianqing said again:
"Furthermore, his theory that the size of one's soul power is directly proportional to the quality of one's martial soul is also wrong."
"Um?"
Qian Renxue paused, then asked:
"Where is this theory wrong?"
Yu Tianqing smiled calmly and said:
"On the surface, his theory does seem to make no mistake."
"But has Your Highness considered this?"
"This description of martial spirit quality is far too general."
"After all, even the same type of martial soul can have different qualities."
"The Martial Soul Quality should be changed to the Martial Soul's Innate Quality; that would be more accurate."
Qian Renxue stood there, stunned, her eyes filled with shock.
Before she could react, Yu Tianqing spoke again:
"Furthermore, he said that the selection of spirit rings should be based on the principle of similar attributes. For example, fire-type martial souls should absorb the spirit rings of fire-type spirit beasts."
"But in my opinion, what truly determines the compatibility of spirit rings is..."
"It's not a simple attribute matching, but a resonance between the martial spirit's origin and the soul beast's bloodline."
"For example, both are fire-type martial souls."
"If you absorb the soul ring of an ordinary fire wolf, the power of your soul skill can reach fifty percent."
"But if the soul beast that absorbs the bloodline of the ancient fire phoenix is younger, the power of the soul skill is very likely to be stronger."
"Some soul rings that seem to have conflicting attributes."
"If the origin of a martial soul is strong enough, it can actually create a special amplification."
"..."
As Yu Tianqing continued to recount his story, Qian Renxue became even more shocked.
It's really hard to believe.
It's astonishing that Yu Tianqing, a mere child, could talk so fluently about these things with her.
The key point is that what Yu Tianqing said seemed to make a lot of sense, and even she herself found it difficult to refute.
Yu Tianqing ignored Qian Renxue's shock and continued:
"Also, Yu Xiaogang said that the amplification of the Martial Soul True Body is directly proportional to the quality of the Martial Soul."
"There's nothing wrong with this theory."
"Isn't it just too simplistic and easy to understand?"
"Isn't that obvious?"
"Who doesn't know that the more powerful the martial soul, the stronger the character?"
"Such a theory can be spoken by anyone and understood by anyone."
"It's laughable that it's even considered a classic!"
As he spoke, Yu Tianqing shook his head and sighed helplessly.
Qian Renxue, who was standing nearby, was completely dumbfounded after hearing Yu Tianqing's words.
I never expected this.
Despite looking like a child, Yu Tianqing has so many unique insights into the theory of martial spirits.
Moreover, what they said all seemed to make a lot of sense.
"I didn't expect this brat to be so smart."
"Could we talk to him about that matter?"
Suddenly, an idea popped into Qian Renxue's mind.
After thinking for a moment, she looked at Yu Tianqing meaningfully and said with a smile:
"Little brother, I didn't expect you to be so smart."
"Why..."
At this point, Qian Renxue sighed helplessly and said with emotion:
"Recently, Father has been worried about the excessive power of princes and nobles. I'm afraid you, a mere child, cannot understand these worries."
Upon hearing Qian Renxue's words, Yu Tianqing smiled inwardly.
It was obvious to me.
Qian Renxue saw that he seemed quite intelligent and wanted to learn from him.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince."
"Since Your Majesty is worried about the excessive power of princes and nobles, why not implement the Edict of Grace?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue was overjoyed.
Originally, I was just trying it out, but I didn't expect that Yu Tianqing's words seemed to suggest that there really was a way.
"The Edict of Grace?"
"What are you saying, kid?"
"Why don't I understand?"
Yu Tianqing smiled slightly and said:
"Your Highness the Crown Prince."
"His Majesty's concern is simply that he feels the power of the royal family is too dispersed."
"Even much power was concentrated in the hands of those kings and nobles."
"And this is also the drawback of the feudal system."
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue's interest grew even stronger, and she quickly pressed for an answer:
"Little brother."
"If you were in this situation, how would you solve it?"
"What exactly did you mean by the Edict of Grace you just mentioned?"
Yu Tianqing explained calmly:
"This so-called Edict of Grace is actually quite simple."
"It means that the kings and nobles should divide their fiefdoms among all their sons, instead of letting the eldest son enjoy them all alone."
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue looked puzzled and asked doubtfully:
"Is there any difference?"
"Even if the fiefdom is divided among other sons, isn't it still in the hands of their own family?"
Yu Tianqing smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying:
"If Your Highness thinks that way, you are sorely mistaken."
"The fiefdoms that should have been inherited by the eldest son can also be allocated to the other sons."
Do you think those offspring wouldn't be tempted?
"At that time, they will inevitably split up, fight amongst themselves, and exhaust each other."
"The title of king or marquis is no longer inherited solely by the eldest son, but is shared equally among all sons. On the surface, it is a favor, but in reality, it is a way to divide the power of kings and marquises."
"In addition, the granting of fiefdoms must be approved by the Empire."
"To ensure that the newly ennobled nobles are grateful to the royal family, rather than continuing to be loyal to their original families."
"If such a decree of favor is issued, in the long run, where will the princes and nobles within the empire have enough power to threaten the imperial authority?"
As he spoke, Yu Tianqing looked straight at Qian Renxue.
At this moment, Qian Renxue was completely stunned.
Unexpectedly, she asked casually, but Yu Tianqing actually provided a solution.
"This Edict of Grace seems... to be feasible indeed!"
"Indirectly and subtly weakened the power of kings and nobles at each level."
"Although this method will certainly be opposed by the eldest sons of those kings and nobles."
"But their descendants, who were not originally entitled to any fiefdom, would be extremely supportive and grateful to the royal family."
"After all, according to the current laws, they get nothing after their eldest sons inherit the fiefdom."
"I never expected... this brat would have such a way of thinking."
Thinking of this, Qian Renxue turned her gaze and looked directly at Yu Tianqing.
He thought to himself that Yu Tianqing was exceptionally intelligent.
After all, the feudal system of the Heavenly Dou Empire greatly annoyed Emperor Xueye, but he couldn't think of a good way to solve it.
Now, Yu Tianqing's proposed "Decree of Grace" can perfectly solve this problem.
"Your Highness, why are you looking at me like that?"
Seeing Qian Renxue staring straight at him, Yu Tianqing frowned slightly.
"Jade Sky Blue!"
"You're so smart!"
Qian Renxue couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Upon hearing Qian Renxue's words, Yu Tianqing feigned surprise and exclaimed in astonishment:
"how?"
"Your Highness, do you know me?"
Qian Renxue smiled slightly and said, "You are from the Blue Overlord Sect, and your martial soul is Luo Sanpao! I do know a little about your affairs."
Yu Tianqing nodded slightly.
I know it very well.
I'm afraid that after I deceived Qian Renxue in the Star Dou Great Forest, she sent people to investigate me.
