Heroes of Earth (simplified Chinese: 盖世英雄; traditional Chinese: 蓋世英雄; pinyin: gàishì yīngxióng) is American-Taiwanese R&B Mandopop singer-songwriter Leehom Wang's eleventh Mandarin studio album. It was released on December 30, 2005, by Sony Music Taiwan.

In this album, Wang continued to experiment with "chinked-out", the musical genre he had invented for his previous album, Shangri-La.^[4] This time he incorporated ancient Chinese Peking Opera and kunqu instead of the Chinese ethnic minority music he had used in Shangri-La.^[4]　

In this album, Wang also collaborated with numerous other artists such as Chinese-American rapper Jin, Mayday vocalist Ashin, opera singer Li Yan, as well with Korean artists Rain and Lim Jeong Hee. He named the album Heroes of Earth in reference to his admiration for those he has collaborated with in this album.^[4]

The track, "Kiss Goodbye" won one of the Top 10 Songs of the Year and the album won Longest Number 1 Album at the 2007 HITO Radio Music Awards presented by Taiwanese radio station Hit FM.^[6]

1. Beside the Plum Blossoms (在梅邊)
The background of this song is based on the story behind The Peony Pavilion, an old Chinese play written by Tang Xianzu in the Ming Dynasty^[4] Wang gave tapes of this play to Ashin of Mayday, who later wrote the lyrics.^[9] Wang also wrote the rap lyrics which can be heard at the end of the song.^[10] He rapped 295 words in 50 seconds.^[10] The song is performed with ancient kunqu music.

2. Flower Field Mistake (花田錯)
The song integrates Peking Opera and modern R&B music. It features an er-hu solo and a singing style that imitates Peking Opera, and the title is a reference to a well-known story in Peking Opera.^[4]

3. Heroes of Earth (蓋世英雄)
Not only did Wang invite the popular Chinese American rapper Jin to rap in the song, he also invited the famous Chinese opera singer Li Yan.^[4] Heavy Peking Opera and kunqu tactics are used in the song, as well as an electric guitar solo by Wang. Jin raps in both English and Cantonese in the song. This song also used in American comedy film Free Guy in 15 years later.

5. The Perfect Interaction (完美的互動)
Wang invited popular Korean singers Rain and Lim Jeong Hee (J-Lim) to be featured in the song. The song begins with a Spanish guitar solo and contains lyrics in Mandarin, Korean, and English. This was also Rain's first Chinese song.^[4] Although Rain's voice is featured in this song, he did not record it at the same time as Wang and Lim—Rain recorded first, Wang and Lim later.^[9] Sony BMG and Wang invited Rain to be featured in the music video as well, but he was unable to participate, and therefore only Wang and Lim were featured in the video.^{[citation needed]}

10. Because Love is in the Heart (愛因為在心中)
This was written, composed, and produced by a Leehom Wang's fanclub in China as a gift for his 29th birthday.^[9] Wang was reportedly touched by his fans' composition and therefore added a little of his own voice in the song and included it in his album.^{[citation needed]}

After releasing Heroes of the Earth, Wang performed an international tour, called the Heroes of Earth World Tour (蓋世英雄 巡迴演唱會). The tour included the following concerts:
