Background / History

The Body Sect governs Disabled Village, a remote settlement near the Heaven Dou Empire's border whose residents commonly possess additional body parts or unusual organs. The sect dispatches deacons such as Wang Long-Arm to conduct Spirit Awakenings there and identify potential Body Martial Soul users. 1

The sect's interest in Zichuan begins when he awakens the unprecedented Twin Heart Martial Soul with innate full soul power. Wang Long-Arm immediately reports the discovery to Sect Master Du Busi, who regards Zichuan's two hearts as a heaven-sent opportunity for the Body Sect and directly claims him as a personal disciple. 1 4

Zichuan is brought to the sect's hidden valley behind the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, where he is received with curiosity rather than hostility. Through body-tempering training, sparring, and the sect's extensive resources, he comes to consider the Body Sect his home. 11 14

After Zichuan returns from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well with immortal herbs, Du Busi publicly names him the sect's first-in-line successor and Young Sect Master. The herbs bolster the sect's cultivation resources and help Du Busi pursue his breakthrough to Rank 99. 32 33

The strengthened sect later challenges Shrek Academy's dominance, using Zichuan and Long Aotian's achievements to demonstrate its ability to nurture exceptional talent. This effort culminates in the announcement and eventual establishment of Body Academy. 72 74 104

Headquarters & Facilities

The Body Sect is concealed within a mountain valley behind the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace. Its grounds are surrounded by steep cliffs and accessed through a passage disguised as a cliff face. 11 32

• Rugged stone-and-wood buildings arranged around a central martial arts arena. 11
• Training grounds used for sparring and body-tempering practice. 11 14
• Medicinal fields and beast pens supporting cultivation and resource production. 11
• A spiritual-energy-rich environment suited to long-term cultivation. 11

Culture & Methods

The sect centers its cultivation on Body Martial Souls—martial souls formed from body parts or organs. Heart, eye, and brain martial souls are regarded as especially high-potential because of their closeness to the body's core functions. 1 4

Body Sect members often possess conspicuous physical mutations, such as unusually long arms, enlarged ears, oversized legs, or other altered body parts. These traits are treated as ordinary within the sect rather than as grounds for exclusion. 11

• The sect teaches secret body-tempering techniques and emphasizes practical combat through frequent sparring. 14
• Its members temper individual body parts toward their limits; this path can potentially make a limb comparable to a divine artifact. 11
• Du Busi considers Body Martial Soul cultivation exceptionally difficult because every practitioner's martial soul and path are unique. 7
• The sect presents itself as a close-knit family: members with Body Martial Souls are meant to support one another through cultivation rather than compete for withheld resources. 7
• Du Busi advocates providing promising disciples with resources, spirit rings, soul bones, and personal instruction without demanding an immediate return. 5 7

“As long as you have a Body Martial Soul and enter this sect, you are family!”
— Du Busi 7

Structure & Notable Members

• Du Busi — Sect Master. An overbearing but fiercely protective leader who personally trains Zichuan and views him as the key to the sect's resurgence. 4 6
• Zichuan — Du Busi's personal disciple, designated Young Sect Master and first successor. His discoveries, resources, and cultivation success drive the sect's rapid growth. 32 33
• Long Aotian — Core disciple and Zichuan's senior brother. A prodigy with the Jade Gold True Body, he serves as one of the sect's foremost examples of its training methods. 34 72
• Wang Long-Arm — Deacon assigned to Disabled Village. He discovers Zichuan's Twin Heart Martial Soul and reports it to Du Busi. 1 4
• Titled Douluo elders — The sect has ten Titled Douluo elders during its most prosperous recorded period. 62
• Deacons and core disciples — Dozens have reached the Soul Douluo level by the time of Du Busi's Rank 99 breakthrough. 62

Body Academy

Body Academy is the Body Sect's academy project, announced after its confrontation with Shrek Academy and intended to broaden the sect's talent base beyond traditional Body Martial Soul cultivators. 72 104

Division	Admission standard
Outer Court	Under 15 years old and at least a two-ring Soul Grand Master; applicants with special qualifications, such as Level 1 Soul Engineer aptitude, may be admitted exceptionally. 72
Inner Court	Under 18 years old and at least a four-ring Soul Ancestor, or a Level 3 Soul Engineer. 72

• Admission is not restricted by Martial Soul type. 72
• Students are promised monthly cultivation resources, specialized instruction, and guaranteed placement after graduation. 72
• Instruction is intended to cover Body Martial Soul cultivation, soul power application, combat techniques, and Soul Tool fundamentals. 72
• Students may withdraw freely, while the Body Sect is to exchange non-core Soul Tool technology with Shrek Academy. 72
• The academy's principal difficulty is recruiting teachers capable of instructing students with non-Body Martial Souls, since most sect members are ascetic Body Martial Soul specialists. 104

Relationships

• Zichuan — Young Sect Master and designated successor; his talent, immortal herbs, and public victories become central to the sect's revival. 32 33 74
• Du Busi — Sect Master and Zichuan's teacher; he protects Zichuan, funds his cultivation, and uses his authority to secure Zichuan's succession. 4 7 33
• Long Aotian — Core disciple and Zichuan's senior brother; their rivalry and cooperation showcase the sect's competitive but familial culture. 12 34 112
• Shrek Academy — Longstanding rival institution. The Body Sect challenges Shrek's authority in talent cultivation while also pursuing a Soul Tool technology exchange. 49 72
• Tang Ya — A prospective Body Academy instructor in Zichuan's plans due to her Shrek Inner Court experience, theoretical knowledge, and Tang Sect heritage. 105
