Background

You Chen was picked up by Spirit Hall and raised in its orphanage after transmigrating and regressing into infancy. Though he developed deep attachment to the organization, his repeated efforts to alter its future failed, leading him to abandon attempts to save its fate and prioritize his own survival and strength 1.

Born with innate Soul Power level 2 and the Wind Hatchling Dragon Martial Soul, he compensated through adult discipline, relentless daily cultivation, and scholarly research. He reached level 10 at age nine, acquired a thousand-year second Soul Ring at fifteen, and later obtained a ten-thousand-year fourth ring at twenty-eight—achievements regarded as extraordinary for someone with his talent 1 3.

His academic work earned him access to the first three floors of the Spirit Hall Grand Library and resources such as whale jelly. He published research on improving Soul Master physique and developed the six-dimensional Martial Soul assessment system 3 7. After Bibi Dong became Pope, however, he was marginalized for past conflicts with her 3.

The Counterattack System activates when Ye Han plots to ambush him. Completing the resulting mission grants You Chen the Aura Concealment Art, an Adaptive Best Age First Soul Ring, cultivation resources, and the foundation for his later rapid growth 1 3.

Appearance

You Chen presents himself as a gentle, scholarly man, often concealing the danger behind his demeanor.

• Wears wide, black-rimmed glasses to maintain a consistent appearance as his cultivation refines his body 34.
• Under Martial Soul Possession, his arms and hands develop scales and powerful dragon claws 7.
• Can manifest dragonized wings, though they consume substantial Soul Power 7 22.
• His Martial Soul True Body manifests as a massive Stardust Dragon 227.

Personality

You Chen is methodical, pragmatic, and intensely ambitious. He treats cultivation as a process of research, measurement, and optimization rather than blind pursuit of rank. His theories on Martial Soul evolution, soul-ring compatibility, and the balance of essence, energy, and spirit guide both his own growth and his instruction of others 23 31.

He is cautious to the point of secrecy, prioritizing concealment, escape routes, and long-term preparation. He deliberately cultivates the Aura Concealment Art to hide his rings, aura, and true level from enemies such as Tang Hao and Spirit Hall 29 34 41.

Despite his polite and gentle exterior, You Chen is manipulative when pursuing strategic goals. He initially approaches Xiao Wu to influence Tang San, builds organizations to secure future power, and uses favors, intelligence, and calculated strength to recruit allies 10 40 132. He nevertheless values capable subordinates, provides tailored cultivation support, and takes pride in his disciples’ success 23 77 149.

Abilities & Skills

Stardust Dragon Martial Soul

You Chen’s original Wind Hatchling Dragon evolves first into the Stardust Young Dragon and then into the high-level Stardust Dragon. Its core power combines wind, stellar, and sacred attributes into Stardust Power 7 148.

• Possesses exceptional speed, later reaching breakthrough-level performance after further sublimation 130.

• Can grant temporary invincibility or healing at high Soul Power cost 7.
• Reduces Soul Emperor-level attacks by more than half and applies resistance to poison, curses, and mental attacks 7.

Soul Shocking Tactic and Star Soul Tactic

Wind Dragon’s Roar and Shooting Sonic

Wind-based offensive techniques developed through his fifth Soul Ring and study of Stardust Dragon power.

• Wind Dragon’s Roar comes from a 24,000-year Wind Spirit ring and can threaten a six-ring Soul Emperor 33 41.
• The fifth ring enhances wind control, creates an energy-storage organ at the Martial Soul’s snout, and reduces wind resistance 41.
• Shooting Sonic combines wind, stellar, and sacred power; its initial form possesses the speed of Wind Dragon’s Roar and the power of Star Dragon’s Roar 33 130.
• Shooting Sonic places considerable strain on You Chen and cannot be used casually 130.

Essence, Qi, and Spirit Cultivation
