Background / History

Nuo Si serves as a Martial Soul Hall deacon responsible for conducting awakenings across villages in the Suotuo City area. His rounds, including travel, can take roughly half a month, leaving him initially too exhausted for extended conversation with village chief Qin Chuan. 1

At Canglang Village's awakening ceremony, Nuo Si identifies himself as a level 31 Soul Elder with the Willow Vine martial soul. He records each child's result, conducts the awakening array, and offers to guide anyone who awakens Innate Soul Power. 2

When Qin Ming awakens the fire-attributed mutated Inferno Grey Wolf, Nuo Si immediately recognizes its potential. He tests its flames, discovers that they consume his soul power as fuel, confirms Qin Ming's Innate Level 8 Soul Power, issues him a Martial Soul Certificate, and eagerly attempts to recruit him into Martial Soul Hall. 2

After Qin Ming agrees to join, Nuo Si returns to Canglang Village and escorts him to Suotuo City. During the three-day journey, he teaches Qin Ming about Martial Souls, Soul Beasts, Spirit Masters, and the layout of Suotuo City before introducing him to Bishop Charlton. 4

Nuo Si continues supporting Qin Ming after his arrival at the Main Hall, arranging clothing, meals, and accommodation. He later helps escort and protect Qin Ming during his first Soul Ring hunt alongside Sha Sha. 6 8 13 14

Personality

Nuo Si is diligent and professional in his official work, patiently calming frightened children during awakenings despite the fatigue of his travel-heavy assignment. 1 2

He is highly enthusiastic about talented recruits, especially Qin Ming, whose discovery he sees as both a genuine opportunity for the boy and a possible advancement in his own career. 2 3 6 He becomes openly protective of Qin Ming, asks him to call him “Brother Nuo Si,” and promises that Qin Ming will not be bullied in Suotuo City. 6

Though knowledgeable and articulate when discussing Spirit Master matters, he can be impulsive and blunt. His disparaging comments about Shrek Academy and the Shrek Dragon draw unwanted attention at the Soto Great Soul Arena. 4 5 16
