Background
A few hundred years ago, Skysea City was an inconspicuous fishing village whose inhabitants lived from the sea. Its fortunes changed with the large-scale development of sea Soul Beast resources, including soul bones, Soul Spirits, soul-ring materials, and other valuable products. The city rapidly became the northern continent's principal trade center for sea Soul Beast goods. 98
The wealth accumulated through this trade enabled the Skysea Alliance to become the Sun Moon Federation's richest organization. Despite its financial influence, the Alliance lacks the top-tier Soul Masters needed to rival powers such as the Spirit Pagoda and Shrek Academy directly. 98
Skysea City is one of the Sun Moon Federation's Eighteen Heavenly Pillars and serves as the core of the Skysea Alliance. It is described as the Federation's most prosperous coastal metropolis and the wealthiest city cluster on the continent. 98
Economy
- Its harbor receives merchant ships carrying rare goods from across the continent. 98
- Sea Soul Beast products—including soul bones, Soul Spirits, and soul-ring materials—form the foundation of its commercial rise. 98
- The city is also known for seafood cuisine, with local dishes including steamed Sea Dragon Fish, braised Deep Sea Octopus, charcoal-grilled scallops, salt-and-pepper starfish, and pan-fried Silver Cod. 102
- The Skysea Alliance uses its wealth, resources, connections, and prize money to attract talented Soul Masters through its Grand Competition. 98
- Its financial power is significant enough that even Heaven Dou City must give the Skysea Alliance deference in economic matters. 98

The harbor is densely packed with merchant vessels, with masts described as resembling a forest. It functions as the center of loading, unloading, and trade for goods brought in from throughout the continent. 98
