History

Angel God legacy

Soul Hall traces its foundation to the Angel God, the ancestor of the Qian family. Its mandate was maintaining order within the Soul Master World and protecting commoners from predatory soul masters and Evil Soul Masters 33 134.

Martial Soul City served as its headquarters and later became the capital of the Martial Soul Empire. The city housed institutions including the Pope Hall and Douluo Hall 1 229. In the White World, Qian Daoliu transferred the papacy to Qian Xunji after the latter reached level 98, while Daoliu became Grand Elder of the Worship Hall 14.

Expansion and statehood

As the Rakshasa Cult and associated Evil Soul Masters destabilized the continent, Soul Hall used its armed forces to secure territory, shelter refugees, restore local administration, and eliminate hostile strongholds 193 194. Qian Xunji simultaneously cultivated public support by presenting the Hall as willing to protect the populace but institutionally unable to govern the entire continent without becoming a state 192 201.

After coordinated petitions by commoners, branch halls, and allied sects, Qian Xunji publicly accepted the demand to establish the Spirit Hall Empire 203 204. The new state rapidly assembled a cabinet, military administration, financial administration, and other governing departments 204.

Angel Empire

Following the defeat of the Rakshasa Cult and the unification of Douluo Continent, Qian Xunji became its First Emperor and renamed the Spirit Hall Empire the Angel Empire 228.

After gaining access to the Black World, Qian Xunji entered its Martial Soul City, received the Black World's Soul Hall leadership, and restarted its continental-unification program 229 230 231. By the conclusion, the Angel Empire had unified both worlds and gained the support of the Black World's Soul Beast Clan through an alliance with Gu Yuena 240.

Headquarters

• Martial Soul City — Soul Hall's central headquarters; later the capital of the Spirit Hall Empire and Angel Empire 1 228.
• Pope Hall — The Pope's seat and a major center for cultivation, administration, and strategic decisions 1 96.
• Douluo Hall — A core Martial Soul City institution guarded by Douluo Warriors 229 230.
• Jincheng Mountains basin — Permanently ceded as a military base for training, stationing, and logistical support 172.

Functions and Policies

Martial soul awakening and support

Soul Hall historically dispatched soul masters to villages and towns to perform annual martial soul awakenings free of charge. It also provided monthly subsidies to low-level soul masters and recruited talented commoner children into its branch halls or Martial Soul City 134 156.

Law enforcement

The organization maintained branch halls across the continent and enforced the rule that soul masters could not wantonly kill commoners. Its enforcement teams were a primary barrier against unchecked Evil Soul Master activity 134.

Soul Hall monitored Slaughter City as a containment site for Fallen and Evil Soul Masters rather than assaulting it directly, judging that its anti-soul-skill rules and maze-like passages would inflict unacceptable casualties and risk releasing more threats 128.

Civil development

• Established an Agricultural Research Division and experimental fields to develop livelihood technology, including soul-master-assisted cultivation methods 155.
• Issued the Field Grant Decree, providing commoners with land, farming tools, and advanced planting instruction; able-bodied men were required to undertake training in the Martial Soul Holy Army 182.
• During military expansion, deployed physicians, craftsmen, support-type soul masters, and administrative personnel alongside combat troops to distribute relief, treat injuries, restore trade, and form temporary local administrations 194.
• Implemented new laws and governance systems in conquered territories to restore order and production 206.

Faith system

Under Qian Xunji, Soul Hall compiled a Faith Deity Genealogy and the Revelation of Holy Light. These works framed Qian as a deity-like protector of light, justice, and order while establishing a pantheon that included powerful Hall elders with potential paths to godhood 151 181 206.

Military Forces

• Holy Emperor Warrior Legion — Elite soul masters at or above the Spirit King level 193.
• Douluo Warrior Legion — Elite soul masters at or above the Spirit King level 193.
• Elite Soul Master Legions — Specialized operational units composed of soul masters at or above the Spirit Ancestor level 193.
• Garrison Legion — Imperial force formed alongside the Spirit Master Legion after the empire's establishment 206.
• Enforcement Group — Law-enforcement branch; Liu Erlong was assigned to it after joining Soul Hall 156.
• Hidden elder force — Six Limit Douluo and nine Super Douluo Elders, supported by more than thirty Title Douluo leaders from vassal sects 219.

Relationships

• Qian Xunji — Pope and principal architect of Soul Hall's expansion, imperial transformation, and interworld unification 14 204 230.
• Qian Daoliu — Qian family patriarch and former Pope; transferred the White World's papacy to Qian Xunji and later ceded Black World leadership to him as well 14 230.
• Qian Renxue — Senior Hall figure trained in papal responsibilities; later supported Qian Xunji's political and imperial projects 96 170.
• Qian Renchuan — Holy Son and leader of the Martial Soul Hall tournament team; learned political strategy directly from Qian Xunji 96 192.
• Bibi Dong — Former disciple and Holy Maiden of Soul Hall; later became leader of the hostile Rakshasa Cult 14 201.
• Upper Three Sects and Lower Four Sects — The reselected sects were nominal allies against Evil Soul Masters; all except Clear Sky Sect had close or vassal ties to Soul Hall 198.
• Soul Beast Clan — Allied with the Angel Empire after Qian Xunji healed Gu Yuena and gained the clan's support for the Soul Spirit system 240.
• Heaven Dou Empire and Star Luo Empire — Political rivals that repeatedly sought to shift the costs of anti–Evil Soul Master operations onto Soul Hall 145 146.

Major Arcs

Evil Soul Master crisis

Following the destruction of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect, Soul Hall investigated the massacre and identified the threat posed by an organized Evil Soul Master force. Qian Xunji disclosed Slaughter City's existence and its role as a refuge for Evil and Fallen Soul Masters 128.

Although Soul Hall publicly joined the search, Qian Xunji deliberately delayed the operation so the enemy organization would remain active and discredit the rival empires and sects, creating conditions favorable for unification 176.

Sect selection assembly

Soul Hall halted its initial territorial expansion and convened a selection assembly at Wind Cloud Gorge to refill the vacant Upper Three Sects and Lower Four Sects positions 194 198. The resulting lineup gave the Hall effective control over most of the Soul Master World while preserving Clear Sky Sect as the principal independent faction 198.

Establishment of the Spirit Hall Empire

Qian Xunji used the “three requests and three resignations” strategy: public petitions urged Soul Hall to establish a nation, while he publicly refused before eventually accepting the burden. The resulting Spirit Hall Empire possessed unusually strong popular legitimacy because commoners believed their own pleas had created it 203 204 205.

Continental and interworld unification

The Spirit Hall Empire conquered Rakshasa-controlled territories, defeated the remaining opposition, and became the Angel Empire after unifying the White World's continent 206 228. Qian Xunji then took control of the Black World's Soul Hall and ultimately extended the Angel Empire across both worlds 230 240.
