Background / History
Lin Jiang secretly founded King's Hall after awakening the Hand of Creation Martial Soul and binding himself to the King System at age six. The system allowed him to summon one King Hero each year, while breakthroughs by those heroes fed power back to him. He spent 125 years building the Hall in seclusion, intending to reach godhood without becoming involved in continental affairs. 1
The Heavenly Ranking exposed King's Hall to the entire continent as its first-ranked faction. The announcement described its Titled Douluo as “as numerous as clouds,” named Lin Jiang the strongest Soul Master of the age, and awarded the Hall the Divine Artifacts Book of Wisdom and Po Jun, Extreme Shadow · Rushing Wolf, and three Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones. 8 9
Forced into the public eye, Lin Jiang ordered the construction of an arena, strengthened the canyon's formations, and placed the Great Wall Guard Army on alert against trespassers. 9 The Hall then openly invited factions across the continent to challenge its champions for Divine Artifacts, drawing Spirit Hall, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Clear Sky Sect, and numerous smaller forces to King's Canyon. 10 11
The tournament established King's Hall's reputation through decisive victories. Its representatives defeated Hu Yan Zhen of the Elephant Armor Sect, Tang Lie of Clear Sky Sect, and Yu Yuanzhen with eight Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan elders; the Hall collected twenty-one Soul Bones from the fallen combatants. 18 26 27 It later repelled Spirit Hall's enshriners in a series of arena contests, though Lin Jiang offered the injured Mighty Lion Douluo lodging and treatment rather than escalating the conflict. 51
King's Hall remained formally detached from factional politics. Lin Jiang rejected Martial Soul Hall's proposed alliance and stated that the Hall had no interest in participating in the continent's schemes or taking sides. 99 Nevertheless, it became a central military force during later continent-wide crises, deploying heroes to coastal cities, the Star Luo Empire, the Star Dou Great Forest, the northern border, shelters, and fortresses. 181
Following the final conflict, Lin Jiang granted godhood to his nine disciples. One month later, he announced the creation of the King's Heavenly Ranking and declared King's Hall equal to the All-Heavens Divine Hall, ending the old gods' exclusive rule of the Divine Realm. 210 212

Organization and Capabilities
King's Canyon Arena

Divine Radiance Fusion
Lin Jiang's Fourth Soul Skill, Divine Radiance Fusion, supplies King's Hall's heroes with God-Bestowed Soul Rings tailored to their Martial Souls. 27
