Background / History

Chi Xin was an orphan who was ostracized on his home planet because his appearance differed from those around him. At the Planetary level, he was discovered and immediately accepted as a disciple by his teacher, whom he regarded as a beacon in an otherwise isolated childhood. 36

Before entering the wider universe, Chi Xin was told that his strength was unmatched among his Beihua Empire peers. His confidence was shaken when Qi Tian defeated him in their first Decisive Battle Space encounter. Though he initially complained that Qi Tian’s energy-storm attack was unfair, he requested another match and later shared drinks with him, beginning their rivalry and friendship. 36

He continued to develop through repeated sparring with Qi Tian, missions, and instruction under Liuhuo Marquis. By the centennial ranking competition, his comprehension of the Origin Law of Fire was recognized as exceptional, though his grasp of Space Laws remained comparatively shallow. 44 93

Following promotion to the Doomsday Secret Realm, Chi Xin cultivated in Chaos City, hunted Chaos Beasts, and received guidance from the Yan Jing Kingdom Lord when Liuhuo Marquis entered seclusion. His progress became remarkable enough for Qi Tian to compare his talent to geniuses born once every ten thousand eras. 102 112 115

Personality

Chi Xin is proud, competitive, and blunt. He initially struggles to accept defeat, repeatedly pursues rematches with Qi Tian, and measures his own advancement against his rival’s accomplishments. 36 66 117

Despite his rough manner and tendency to call his teacher an “old geezer,” he respects powerful seniors and can respond tactfully in formal settings. He is also persistent: setbacks on the Heavenly Bridge do not stop him from seeking further guidance or continuing his pursuit of strength. 36 96 112 115

He shows a clear moral line. During one mission, he killed a city lord described as perverted and destroyed an organization involved in death trials, accepting the risks of opposing them. 89
