Background
Early life
Situ Yi grew up on Apocalypse Star without parental support and worked to cover his living expenses. He could not afford an internet plan and read pirated downloaded novels, while intending to repay the authors if he ever became successful. He also possessed fragmented, unreliable memories of his past, including memories of his own birth. 581 582
His father is the Demon Suppressing Dominator Situ Ying. Situ Ying regarded Situ Yi as chronically cowardly and lazy, believing that conventional opportunities, cultivation manuals, treasures, and resources would be wasted on him. 599
Literary Codex
After his phone went offline, Situ Yi claimed a mysterious reward that manifested as the bronze-and-silver Literary Codex. The book is visible only to him and contains an embedded keyboard through which he writes, receives evaluations, and accesses lottery rewards. 582
His first assigned theme was Infinite Flow. He rapidly wrote a thirty-thousand-word story starring “Situ Dai'ai,” only for Yan Anqing—acting as the Codex’s evaluator—to criticize it for an “explosion of plot holes.” 582
Conflict with Li Zhuozhao
Situ Yi befriended Li Zhuozhao through their shared interest in literature. Their relationship collapsed after Li published Sword Head Game, a work Situ Yi believed had been plagiarized from his manuscript. Li publicly claimed that Situ Yi had only seen his draft, leaving Situ Yi unable to prove his authorship and ostracized by classmates. 583 584 585
The humiliation drove Situ Yi to write Apocalypse Hunter, whose protagonist Situ Er repeatedly confronts a villain modeled on Li Zhuozhao. His desire to surpass Li became the central motivation behind his writing, cultivation, and pursuit of power. 584 594
Qingyan University
After finishing Apocalypse Hunter, Situ Yi drew Supernatural Brainpower, gaining exceptional memory and learning speed. He used it to place third nationally in the college entrance examination, behind Li Zhuozhao and Ji Siqi. 592 594
He enrolled at Qingyan University, where he was deliberately assigned to the same dormitory as Li Zhuozhao. Competition for resources and fear of expulsion pushed him to cultivate the Heaven Burning True Martial Divine Canon while continuing to write for further rewards. 596 598 601
Savior List and interplanar travel
After witnessing possible futures in which humanity is enslaved by the Demon Suppressing Dominator, Situ Yi used Timeline Observation to compile a list of hundreds of possible saviors across different planes. The effort overwhelmed him, and the Timeline Observation ability subsequently disappeared from his Codex interface. 606 607
Yan Anqing helped him travel to other planes to locate these figures. On a colony planet, Situ Yi met Lin Aolong, Ma Ran, and the resurrected Yu Hongyi; after revealing the Literary Codex to them, he accepted Yu Hongyi’s invitation to join the SYS Secret Meeting. 608 611 615 616
Personality
Situ Yi begins as a reclusive, cash-strapped, and somewhat lazy student who dreams of becoming a successful author. The Literary Codex awakens his ambition, but early criticism, public humiliation, and rivalry make him defensive and resentful. 582 584 585
He is stubbornly resilient. Despite poor sales, reader mockery, exhaustion, and a damaged reputation, he continues updating Apocalypse Hunter and completes it rather than abandoning the project. 589 591
Situ Yi remains fundamentally kind even toward Li Zhuozhao. Although he wants to expose and ruin Li’s reputation, he does not want to kill him, and he eventually sets aside their personal feud when humanity’s survival is at stake. 598 607
His experiences at Qingyan University and across other planes broaden his outlook. He becomes increasingly willing to take risks, accepts responsibility for the Savior List, and resolves to become strong enough to control his own fate. 599 606 608
