Background / History

Xiao Tian awakens Sword Fifteen with Innate Soul Power Level Five. Although Su Yuntao invites him to join the Martial Soul Hall, Xiao Tian chooses to see the outside world first and receives a work-study place at Nuoding Academy through his village chief. He spends the months after awakening practicing swordsmanship and learning Sword Control Technique. 1 4

At Nuoding Academy, Xiao Tian meets Xiao Wu and Tang San. He repeatedly defeats Tang San, counters his hidden weapons, and uses severe training to force both Tang San and Xiao Wu to develop. He initially avoids Yu Xiaogang’s attempt to take him as a disciple, but later maintains a tactful relationship with him for practical benefit. 5 10 12 13

Xiao Tian later confirms that he is a reincarnator from Tang San’s former world. His exceptional comprehension allows him to cultivate Sword Intent, create sword techniques, and surpass conventional soul-ring expectations. 39

After gaining Soul Spirit contracts with Da Ming, Er Ming, and Ah Yin, he begins building an independent power base. He founds the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, recruits the Blacksmith’s Association and single-attribute clans, and develops Soul Tool Swords and Battle Armor for the sect. 50 83 89 91 140

During the Soul Master Tournament, Xiao Tian leads the Heaven Dou Royal Team and defeats Qian Renxue despite her superior nominal cultivation. His victory establishes him as a major power opposed to recruitment or control by Martial Soul Hall. 127 128 129

He ultimately advances beyond the limits of ordinary Soul Masters through Blood Qi Soul Rings, Soul Cores, million-year Soul Bones, and the fusion of his sword-related artifacts. After defeating the Douluo Star Plane Spirit, he ascends as a god and becomes the new Plane Lord. 153 154 168 169

Personality

He is pragmatic and strategic rather than needlessly confrontational. Though he initially dismisses Yu Xiaogang, he later keeps the relationship usable; he also establishes the Shu Mountain Sword Sect to create influence independent of Martial Soul Hall. 10 49 83

In battle and training, Xiao Tian can be teasing, ruthless, and intimidating—particularly toward Tang San. He nevertheless invests heavily in the growth of his companions, providing cultivation methods, herbs, training opportunities, and protection. 12 74 142 170
