Background / History

The Ganwu Kingdom Master rules the Ganwu Universe Kingdom and oversees the Ganwu Secret Realm, where talented Universe-level cultivators receive resources, techniques, and instruction from Sector Lord- and Immortal-level teachers. He has eighteen Divine Generals under him, though relatively few accept disciples from the secret realm. His forces are described as lacking powerful subordinates. 1 2

Once a prominent figure willing to borrow a true treasure and explore Primordial Stars, he later fell three times, losing his supreme treasures and Heavy Treasure set. The losses left him deeply indebted and unwilling to risk further ventures into cosmic secret realms; he instead relied partly on nurturing outstanding juniors for contributions and rewards. 8 57 78

He personally escorts Zhang Dong to the Virtual Universe Company assessment after hearing of the latter's performance on the Dragon Rock Battlefield. Watching Zhang Dong's Trial Tower challenge, he recognizes the youth's rapid growth and judges that Zhang Dong could become a King if he survives. 8 9 10

After Zhang Dong joins the Primordial Realm, the Kingdom Master has a palace prepared for him on Imperial Capital Star. He urges Zhang Dong to remain there when not on missions, warning that alien races will regard the mysterious prodigy as an increasingly severe threat. 22 23

Appearance

The Ganwu Kingdom Master is presented as a majestic sovereign whose presence evokes the scale of the cosmos.

• Wears a purple-gold robe while seated upon his imperial throne. 23
• His eyes are described as containing an “infinite universe.” 23
• His aura carries the authority of an ancient ruler and inspires an instinctive urge to submit. 23
• In the Virtual Universe, his restrained presence still makes Zhang Dong feel as though he is facing the boundless cosmos. 9

Personality

Though burdened by debt and limited prospects, the Ganwu Kingdom Master remains highly attentive to exceptional talent. Zhang Dong's emergence from the Ganwu Secret Realm rekindles his hope that a super-existence might rise from his universe kingdom. He invests personally in Zhang Dong through testing, protection, residence on Imperial Capital Star, counsel, and later financial dealings. 9 23 57

He is pragmatic about wealth and treasures. Heavy Treasures paid for in Hunyuan Units are especially valuable to him because they can be converted into treasure points and used to reduce his long-standing debts. 56 57

His attitude toward Zhang Dong grows from appraisal and patronage to sincere respect. By the time Zhang Dong's true status becomes apparent, he understands that universe kingdom masters must look up to him. 78 98

“If you have any questions about your cultivation, you can come and ask me anytime.” 23
