Background & History

Jixia Academy had no known historical record on the Douluo Continent. Even Snake Lance Douluo's intelligence network and the knowledge of veteran Titled Douluo produced no trace of the academy before its sudden emergence 4 7.

The academy had previously remained secluded in the Extreme North under Lu Ming and his students. At Da Qiao's urging, Lu Ming permitted its participation in the All-Continent High-Level Soul Master Academy Elite Competition; Da Qiao then used her Space Power to transport the academy and its inhabitants to Heaven Dou City 6 8.

It appeared overnight on formerly barren land west of Heaven Dou City, alarming Qian Renxue and local academies alike. The Academy's future victories and disappearances had already been shown to Qian Renxue in the Life Simulator, making her treat it as an unknown force capable of overturning the continent's balance 1 7 10.

In simulated futures, Jixia Academy won the continental tournament without a loss, rejected Martial Soul Hall's recruitment, and vanished before Bibi Dong could encircle it 10. Later simulations show it becoming the principal target of the God Realm because it exists outside the expected order of the world 41.

Campus

Jixia Academy combines an otherworldly natural environment with technology far beyond contemporary Soul Master institutions.

• Its first Heaven Dou City site was surrounded by vast crystalline Blue Silver Grass marked with faint gold, clear spiritual rivers, and white-jade palaces 7.
• Da Qiao's Space Power is capable of relocating the entire academy and its population at once 8.
• The academy contains rare medicinal herbs, dense ambient Soul Power, suspended structures, glowing metal buildings, and automated mechanisms 18 19.
• A later site is described as a futuristic city-like complex with floating islands, rune-lit towers, and a hundred-meter gate made from unknown silvery-white metal 27.
• Its gate can automatically recognize Lu Ming and greet him with a synthesized mechanical voice 27.
• The training grounds use self-repairing material, allowing powerful Soul Masters to fight without permanently damaging the arena 27.
• Mechanical birds, autonomous metal constructs, and other devices attributed to Mozi operate throughout the grounds 64.
• The academy's black enrollment badge bears an emblem combining an ancient gear and a scroll 80.
