- We are an adventurer Man Tiger Pig. Not an official. I much prefer hitting the road to the palace stuff. If you are an official representative of the Tufan court, you can't troll people like you do
We'd be a general, still a pretty outdoorsy figure in these days. Yang Xue wasn't chilling around in the palace all day, he spent much of his time at the border involved with the nomadic turks. We can still troll people easily enough; imagine BJ and the others having to address us with the respect that a foreign general is due when we go to compete at the Huashan summit. Most of our trolling occurs in battle, anyway.
- Less time to do our own thing in China
We have plenty of time to do important things there. Leaving now, on the other hand, leaves us with no time to accomplish what we came to do in Tibet.
- Being a general under a king does not sound as cool as being a king. Or a khan
Generals have more resources to amass power and territory to themselves than random martial artists, yes? I can think of a great number of generals who either overthrew or carved out their own countries yet not any for masters of some martial arts punching their way into ruling a country. If you hate palace life, why would you want to be a king, anyway?
- What I've seen in Tufan does not make me want to live here. Also, their women are braver than their soldiers, so much for being a general with these pussies
Do you think that the average Chinese soldier would actually have more integrity in facing the apprentice of the Southern Maniac? We're now on a level with enough notoriety from killing and so on that we're going to strike fear into the heart of just about any who envision us as potentially being their enemy.
- If you marry to the princess, have to make her first wife over existing ones, less chance to get Yunzi
First wife is just a title, and if anything we have more of a chance to meet up with Yunzi since we're going to be in the area instead of heading away for who knows how many years.
We should shackle kingdoms to us not be shacked to a kingdom.
What do you intend to do that with? Just one guy can't control a whole kingdom with nothing more than his fists, there has to be some sort of army. We've passed up on the options that would have allowed Jing to mind control an army of spiders and snakes, so that leaves a more conventional one as a necessity. Being a general neatly solves that issue.
