Legendary Armament Canon

He waved it twice self-consciously. A look of surprise crossed his face.

In the past, when he used a saber, he always felt that it was extremely light. Now that the Heavenly Halberd was in his hands, he felt very comfortable.

After swinging it a few more times, he liked it even more.

After a moment, he stopped moving and asked with a conflicted expression, "Your Highness, how much is this Heavenly Halberd?"

He asked the question carefully, but he actually couldn't come up with much money at all.

Although the Demon Executing Army's income wasn't low, he had a big appetite and consumed a lot of cultivation resources, so he couldn't save much money.

"You're a soldier worthy of a good weapon. Don't talk about money." Zhou Shu waved his hand.

"If you think it suits you, take it for now!"

"It suits me!" Mei Nanchu nodded vigorously and said hesitantly, "But I can't afford it. Why don't you give me some time? I'll pay you back some money every month in the future…"

"Whatever you want." Zhou Shu waved his hand indifferently. "General Mei, are you participating in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament?"

Zhou Shu looked at Mei Nanchu and clicked his tongue in wonder.

He's indeed a talent.

His defense is comparable to between the sixth and seventh level of my Golden Bell Shield Technique.

He's inborn with it!

Even if one cultivated the Golden Bell Shield Technique, they might not be able to reach this level in their entire lives.

Zhou Shu was overjoyed. If Mei Nanchu cultivated the Golden Bell Shield Technique, how strong would his defense be?

"Yes." Mei Nanchu touched the shaft of the Heavenly Halberd lovingly.

"That's great." Zhou Shu smiled. It would be a pity not to nurture such a good seedling. "General Mei."

"You can just call me by my name, Your Highness," Mei Nanchu quickly said. "Or you can call me Little Chu. That's what my mother called me when she was still alive."

Zhou Shu sweated. He really couldn't bring himself to call him Little Chu…

"Nanchu, I have another unique cultivation technique. Do you want to learn it?" Zhou Shu asked.

Mei Nanchu was stunned for a moment. "But I already have a cultivation technique."

Shi Songtao slapped his forehead, speechless.

Do you have to hesitate over such a good thing?

You should have just answered that you wanted to learn!

In order to learn something, I almost sold myself into slavery. How dare you say that you already have a cultivation technique!

Zhou Shu smiled even more happily. Such an honest person gave him the greatest sense of accomplishment.

"The Demon Executing Army's cultivation technique is actually not very suitable for you," Zhou Shu said. "If I'm not wrong, you've been stuck at the sixth rank for a long time, right?"

"Yes." Mei Nanchu nodded. "I've tried very hard, but I just can't break through my bottleneck. Our grand commander said that my potential ends here. If I don't have any other opportunities in my life, it will be very difficult for me to cultivate to the fifth rank."

Mei Nanchu's expression darkened.

"You don't have to take those words to heart," Zhou Shu said indifferently. "After cultivating my cultivation technique, you won't be just a mere fifth-rank martial artist. Even if you want to press the grand commander of the Demon Executing Army on the ground in the future, it won't be a problem."

"Press him on the ground? What does that mean?" Mei Nanchu was puzzled.

"That's not important. Answer me first. Do you want to learn it?"

"Your Highness, may I ask you a question?" Mei Nanchu didn't answer. Instead, he looked at Zhou Shu seriously.

"Ask away."

"Why are you so good to me? Not only are you giving me a yellow-grade weapon, but you also want to impart your cultivation technique to me."

Mei Nanchu said with a serious expression, "My mother said that money doesn't fall from the sky. Is there something you want me to do? I won't do anything outrageous."

"Haha." Zhou Shu laughed. "It's nothing like that. Nanchu, I need a guard during the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament. Come and be my guard, and the Heavenly Halberd is yours. I'll also impart the cultivation technique to you."

"I'm sorry, Your Highness." Mei Nanchu looked extremely conflicted. He thought for a moment and slowly placed the Heavenly Halberd on the ground.

"I can't leave my brothers in the Demon Executing Army behind." He gritted his teeth, afraid that he could not resist the temptation. He stopped looking at the Heavenly Halberd and turned to leave.

Shi Songtao stomped his foot in anger. Does this guy know what he has missed?!

Who asked him to leave his brothers in the Demon Executing Army behind?

Can't the Demon Executing Army protect His Highness together?

What a blockhead!

"Wait." Zhou Shu stopped Mei Nanchu from leaving. "Since you're unwilling, I won't force you.

"You can still take the Heavenly Halberd. As for the money, you can give it to me when you have enough."

Zhou Shu kicked with his toes, and the Heavenly Halberd flew toward Mei Nanchu.

Mei Nanchu instinctively caught it. "Your Highness—"

"Don't worry. I have no ulterior motives." Zhou Shu smiled. "Other than the Heavenly Halberd, I will also impart that cultivation technique to you.

"Before you say anything, I naturally have a condition, but it isn't an outrageous condition."

Zhou Shu glanced at Shi Songtao.

Shi Songtao was speechless. Well, now you think I'm an eyesore, don't you?

I'll leave!

He left, looking annoyed.

Only Mei Nanchu and Zhou Shu were left in the courtyard.

Zhou Shu's lips curled up as he looked at Mei Nanchu's burly figure.

"Listen carefully. This cultivation technique of mine is called the Golden Bell Shield. Although the name isn't pleasant, it's extremely powerful. If you cultivate it to the extreme, you can have an invincible body. Ten thousand troops can march over your body, but you won't get hurt."

Without giving Mei Nanchu a chance to refuse, Zhou Shu began to explain the cultivation method of the Golden Bell Shield Technique.

After an unknown period of time, Mei Nanchu was in a daze, and the voice in his ear had disappeared.

He was extremely shocked.

To be able to cultivate to the sixth rank of the Martial Dao, Mei Nanchu was not ignorant.

How could he not know the power of the Golden Bell Shield Technique?

It was precisely because he knew this that he was even more shocked. Why would His Highness teach me such a cultivation technique?

"Your Highness—"

"Have you memorized everything?" Zhou Shu interrupted. "What do you not understand? Ask now. After today, I won't have time for you."

"I've memorized it," Mei Nanchu said with a complicated expression.

"Your Highness, if you have any orders, please be direct. I'm afraid…" Mei Nanchu gritted his teeth.

For as long as he could remember, no one had been this nice to him except his deceased mother.

He didn't feel that he was worth Zhou Shu doing this.

A sixth-rank martial artist's cultivation was not bad, but in the Demon Executing Army, there were at least a thousand people like him…

He really couldn't understand why Zhou Shu was doing this for him. He had just given him a weapon and even imparted his cultivation technique to him.

He felt no excitement now, only fear.

"What I want you to do…" Zhou Shu laughed. "It's very simple.

"Change your name."

"I don't like your name. Copper head and steel arms, a hundred battles without injury. From now on, change your name to Mei Wushang1."

"Mei Wushang?" Mei Nanchu was stunned. You gave me such great benefits just to make me change my name?

Changing his name was not a big deal in this world. There was no problem changing his name even though his parents had given him this name.

The problem was, did he have to go to this extent to make him change his name?

You're a king. If you want me to change my name, I'll have to change it even if you don't give me anything.

Moreover, Mei Wushang sounded a little better than Mei Nanchu…

"Your Highness—"

"Don't get ahead of yourself." Zhou Shu waved his hand. He couldn't bear to see a burly man behaving coyly.

"Apart from that, there's something else I want you to do.

"If you can do it, there's no need to say anything. If you can't, you have to return both the weapon and the Golden Bell Shield Technique.

"For this matter, I want you to kill a hundred enemies at the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament!

"It's not too late to refuse my request."

Mei Nanchu, or Mei Wushang, was stunned. Was this a request?

He was supposed to participate in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament. Wasn't it his duty to kill enemies?

Killing a hundred was a little difficult, but it was not impossible.

"I'll do it!" Mei Wushang said earnestly.
