Background / History

Long Fan begins as a ten-year-old orphan in Tor Town with only three points of Outer Spiritual Power. His Deep Blue system assigns him a novice task of practicing the sword one thousand times. During a Demon invasion, he completes the task, uses an experience card, and manifests a powerful form upon a Doomsday Throne to defend the town. Knight Instructor Pein sacrifices himself to secure the townspeople's escape, leaving a lasting influence on Long Fan. 2

After his strength test draws the attention of Yang Haoyu, Long Fan accepts the Starry Sky Knight's offer to become his disciple. Yang takes him to Tor Mountain, where Long Fan undergoes intensive sword training and receives the Starry Sky Twin Swords as an initiation gift. 7 8

Long Fan later returns to the Knight Hall, forms contracts with powerful companions and mounts, and enters the Demon Hunt Squad selection events under the masked identity Masked Zero. His victories across the Six Halls establish him as an exceptional all-rounder capable of fighting as a Knight, Warrior, Mage, Assassin, Priest, and Summoner. 47 80 118

As a Demon Hunter, he fights at Demon Expelling Pass, earns the trust of Caier's parents, leads the Radiant Angel Knight Order, and kills multiple Demon God-level opponents. His growth eventually brings him into direct conflict with A Bao, Feng Xiu, and the Demon God Emperor. 147 154 156 500
