Background / History

Nan Xuan was born in Iron Box Village to a father with the inherited Iron Box Martial Soul and a mother with the Iron Wire Martial Soul. Both parents worked as goods escorts, using their soul skills to materialize, enlarge, connect, and secure cargo. His father was the village’s strongest soul master at level 21.5, while his mother was a level 12 Soul Master. 1

He retained the soul and knowledge of an adult from a previous life, including a background in mechanical and electrical engineering. After awakening the Wireless Router Martial Soul, he envisioned applying that knowledge to construct a continent-spanning mental network world. 6 7

At six years old, Nan Xuan entered Shrek Academy in Martial Soul City. He deliberately sat beside Bibi Dong despite her oppressive aura, relying on his martial soul’s mental amplification to resist its effects. He later acquired his first soul ring from a 430-year Ice Silkworm and concealed the full danger and potential of his resulting skill. 3 4

Appearance

At approximately age 11, Nan Xuan was described as a notably handsome youth whose appearance made him easily recognizable even after years away from home. 7 10

• Black, tousled hair. 7
• Around 175 cm tall at the time of the description. 7
• Well-proportioned physique. 7
• Often wore a white casual outfit. 7
• Used a mask in public to avoid exposure and unwanted attention. 7
• Wore a storage bracelet acquired through treasure appraisal. 7

Personality

Nan Xuan is composed, calculating, and highly private around outsiders. He intentionally presents himself as mature and restrained to appear sophisticated, while those close to him see a more teasing, playful personality. 8

He prefers operating behind the scenes rather than seeking public recognition. This tendency guided his early management of Momo Treasure Appraisal House and later his efforts to conceal the Network World’s deeper functions until he was strong enough to defend them. 6 7

Although he frequently frames his assistance as investment or business, he is capable of generosity and protective concern. He supports Bibi Dong’s ambitions, helps associates improve their cultivation, establishes restrictions against crime in the Network World, and offers aid to people such as Xiao Yi Xian without demanding immediate repayment. 12 14 46 179

His pragmatism can also be ruthless. He treats people and major events as variables in long-term plans, manipulates bloodlines and soul beasts for strategic objectives, and is willing to use overwhelming force against threats to his order. 27 28 38 150
