Background / History

Hong rose to become Earth’s undisputed strongest powerhouse. His personal power transcends secular authority, and his contributions were central to humanity’s survival from the Great Nirvana era onward. He serves as both the Limit Dojo’s Dojo Master and the War God Palace’s First Speaker. 18

After Li Qingxu displayed extraordinary potential during the martial artist assessment, Hong authorized a recruitment gift that allowed Li to select two treasures from the Limit Dojo’s stores. 4 Hong later travelled personally to City 026 after investigating Li’s anomalous cultivation, initially suspecting that Li was not from Earth. 18

• Short-cropped black hair. 18
• Usually wears a black jacket and black trousers. 18

Personality

Hong is also uncompromising when humanity faces a crisis. During the global sea-monster campaign, he kills two councilors who avoid dangerous opponents to hunt weaker King-level monsters instead. 49
