Background / History
Du Busi’s elder brother, Du Bi Si, preceded him as Body Sect Master and died following his conflict with Mu En. Du Busi retains a deep grudge against Mu En and Shrek Academy, but refuses to sacrifice the sect in a full-scale war for personal revenge. He considers his responsibilities as sect master before his position as a younger brother or the Heaven Dou Empire’s guardian Douluo 141 161.
He also hints at a painful romantic past, but refuses to explain it to Han Yu 108.
Appearance
- Build: A tall, broad elderly man 3.
- Hair: Long, dark-green hair with a bald crown, which Han Yu privately compares to a “Mediterranean” hairline 3.
- Skin: Baby-like and almost unwrinkled despite his age 3.
- Clothing: Later wears a simple black robe and a belt strung with the bones of poisonous insects 342.
- Martial soul transformation: Becomes a heavily muscled, dark-green giant. His specially made shorts withstand the expansion even when his other clothes burst apart 140 156 172.
Personality
Du Busi is openly affectionate toward promising disciples, particularly Han Yu. Upon accepting him, he becomes so excited that he dances with joy and promises to obtain whatever resources his cultivation requires—even through theft. He values a martial soul’s potential more than its owner’s initial soul power 3.
His teaching combines genuine care with deliberately harsh trials. He prepares medicinal treatment for Han Yu’s injuries, secretly guards him during his first soul-ring hunt, and uses deceptive sparring to teach him not to trust an opponent’s apparent strength 6 8 15.
He is boastful and enjoys humiliating rivals. After becoming a Limit Douluo, he interrupts his journey specifically to flaunt the breakthrough before Xuan Zi and force him to use the address “Body Crown” 152 153.
Despite his aggression, Du Busi understands restraint. He spares Xuan Zi because killing him could provoke Shrek’s retaliation and benefit the Sun Moon Empire. He later cooperates with Shrek against shared threats and abandons a risky rescue assault when enemy reinforcements make heavy losses likely 102 161 347 360.
Abilities & Skills

- Defensive application: His second awakening allows him to push through Di Tian’s Dragon Flame while attempting to rescue Xuan Zi 172.
- Limit: After becoming a Limit Douluo, he still recognizes that Di Tian is stronger and has not yet revealed his full power 172.
