Background / History
Mo Fan awakened Lightning and Fire at Tianlan High School, becoming a Dual Element Talent. Although Principal Zhu warned that cultivating two elements could become a burden, Mo Fan chose to concentrate on Lightning first. Unlike ordinary mages, he possessed twice the normal cultivation time. 2
After relocating to Magic City, Mo Fan objected strongly when Li Xingze proposed housing Xin Xia separately with him. Despite their bickering, Li Xingze gave Mo Fan a Control Magic Tool and later funded an Intermediate Guiding Stone for his awakening. 19 23
At his Intermediate awakening, Mo Fan gained both the Undead and Summoning Elements. He applied to Pearl Institute through Undead Element special recruitment and entered the school alongside Li Xingze. 28 29
Personality
Mo Fan is fiercely protective of Xin Xia and reacts aggressively when he believes Li Xingze is overstepping around her. 19
He is ambitious but highly pragmatic about resources. He sought Spirit Seeds, Contract Beasts, Soul Fires, and eventually accepted a twenty-billion loan at 5% monthly interest to pursue a Super-level breakthrough. 67 88 238 244
Despite his opportunism and frequent banter, he values his companions. He searched Hua Village for Zhang Xiaohou, joined dangerous expeditions with his friends, and was willing to disregard his National Team position when Zhao Manyan's soul was taken. 104 118 130
