Your personal guards?

What? Do you have an objection? It is not impossible to change! I can switch to Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, or others, and the personal guards can be replaced by the Black Armor Army or the Trap Formation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Uh... no need! Let’s just go with that!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Sun Ce shook his head speechlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>What difference would that make?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Oh! There is one!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Zhao Yun is probably even stronger than Lu Bu.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>As for the Black Armor Army or the Trap Formation?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>They might be weaker than Su Xuan’s personal guards, but against his elite troops, they would still be a crushing force!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"It seems no matter how we change it, I’m going to be beaten!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Besides, I set up this competition not to win, but just to go through the motions and give myself a graceful exit!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Why think so much?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Sun Ce suddenly understood everything, and his heart felt much lighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Haha! Fine! Let’s do it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Let the competition start tomorrow morning at the fifth watch!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Xuan nodded with a smile, then looked at Zhou Yu, who had been observing him, and said with a light laugh: \"You must be Zhou Yu, Zhou Zhou Gongjin, right? The title of 'Beautiful Zhou Lang' is well-deserved!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Your strength is also decent! Once you join my ranks, achieving the Heaven-Man Realm within ten years will be no problem at all! I have high hopes for you! I look forward to your joining!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Zhou Yu’s current strength was at the early stage of Dan Strength; as a commander who was both a scholar and a warrior, this talent was indeed decent.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Uh... Your Majesty is too kind! Zhou Yu is still far from that!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Zhou Yu bowed modestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>At the same time, he was secretly shocked: \"Prince Zou Qian actually has the confidence to let me break through to the Heaven-Man Realm within ten years? It seems the rumors that Prince Zou Qian has heaven-defying comprehension, created many divine arts, and created methods for raising exotic beasts and precious herbs may not be groundless!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Otherwise, how could one explain Su Xuan’s confidence?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The Heaven-Man Realm is not so easy to achieve.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Otherwise, the Heaven-Man Realm would not have become a legend over the past few hundred years.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, the next morning arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The competition officially began.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>First was the personal duel.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Lu Bu and Sun Ce both entered the field.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>They were soon locked in battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Of course, Lu Bu had the intention of guiding and testing Sun Ce’s strength from the start; he didn't use his full strength at all, using only ten percent of his power, and he was already fighting Sun Ce to a standstill.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>A Heaven-Man expert is truly terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Meanwhile, in Chaisang City,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>A group of Jiangdong aristocrats gathered at Zhu Zhi’s mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It wasn't just these Jiangdong aristocrats; Zhang Zhao and even Sun Sun Quan were among them.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"You all should know by now, right? Sun Ce is preparing to submit to Su Xuan; this so-called three-battle competition is just a farce he set up! It’s just to give himself a graceful exit!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"He’s fine with it, taking everyone to submit to Su Xuan, but did he ever ask if we were willing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1336,"2026-06-16T22:49:48.622Z","2026-06-17T08:57:40.402Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","b3d073fd6ee3c5f2a6f9ebfee82a4c2bae34a590df33b821a213852c11adfff4","heaven-defying-comprehension-building-an-eternal-chapter-437","heaven-defying-comprehension-building-an-eternal-chapter-435",467,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fheaven-defying-comprehension-building-an-eternal-cover.jpg"]
