History
Tang Chuan established the Qingdi Sect after Bai He, Yang Wudi, and Niu Gao pledged the Speed, Breaking, and Defense Clans to him. He accepted their allegiance and declared that the new sect would not privilege any core family: advancement would depend on ability, while all members were expected to place sect interests first. The Dragon Snake Family and Nine Heart Begonia Family also joined during the founding period. 160 161
The sect was established around Tang Chuan's fief near the Sunset Forest, an area of more than 4,000 square kilometers bordered by mountains, plains, and the Shuangchi River. Its mountain gate was constructed by the Defense Clan, while its member families gradually relocated into the sect. 192 212
Tang Chuan designed the sect to be financially independent through the production of soap, fragrant soap, snow sugar, and snow salt. These businesses expanded into continent-wide Evergreen Pavilion outlets, funding the sect's operations and growth. 190 196
As its forces expanded, the Qingdi Sect became a major counterweight to Martial Soul Hall and a crucial pillar for the Heaven Dou Empire. It ultimately entered the Upper Three and Lower Four Sects Selection Tournament and emerged as the foremost Upper Three Sect. 280 338 352
During the war against the Spirit Hall Empire, Tang Chuan employed the Qingdi Sect as a principal arm of Heaven Dou's military strategy. Qingdi Sect elders led campaigns to recover occupied territories and threatened Spirit City from the Balak Kingdom border, tying down enemy forces while the empire responded to the wider conflict. 408
In the final campaign, Tang Chuan led Qingdi Sect soul masters alongside the Clear Sky Sect, the Fubing Army, and Heaven Dou's elite forces to seize Xingluo Imperial City and surround Spirit City. Following the collapse of the Spirit Hall Empire, he preserved Spirit City rather than destroy it, while ending Spirit Hall's political rule on the continent. 512
Ten years after Heaven Dou unified Douluo Continent, Tang Chuan renamed the Qingdi Sect Qingdi Palace. The organization absorbed Martial Soul Hall's former public functions, established branches across the continent, and became the dominant soul master force of the new era. 512
