Background / History

Qian Daoliu was a leading figure of the original Martial Soul Hall and inherited the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul of the Qian bloodline. Martial Soul Hall carried the Angel God's legacy and regarded protection of the continent as its responsibility. His original soul-ring configuration was eight black rings and one red ring, earned through the Angel God trials and the dangerous slaying of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast. 2 4

After arriving ten thousand years in the future, he discovers that Martial Soul Hall was destroyed, Bibi Dong and the Angel God were slain in the Battle of the Two Gods, and evil soul masters now operate openly. Though initially shocked, he resolves to rebuild Martial Soul Hall, eradicate evil soul masters, and restore a force devoted to protecting civilians. 3 12 13

He becomes an Offering Elder at Martial Soul Academy, supporting its creation as the new foundation for Martial Soul Hall's ideals. His existence serves as a decisive deterrent against hostile forces, including Shrek Academy, the Holy Spirit Cult, and political powers investigating the academy. 43 59

Appearance

Qian Daoliu is a golden-haired man whose actual age greatly exceeds his outward appearance; he appears to be in his thirties or forties despite being older than sixty or seventy. 25 26

• Long golden hair, often described as shining in moonlight or wind. 68 78
• Brilliant golden eyes associated with majesty and divinity. 24
• Commonly wears white robes. 68
• The phantom of a Six-Winged Angel may appear behind him, even when he is not fully engaging in battle. 68 71
• Releases golden wings when manifesting his Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul. 55

Personality

Qian Daoliu is composed, authoritative, and intensely protective of Martial Soul Hall’s legacy. He views evil soul masters as enemies of the innocent and acts without hesitation against those who prey on civilians; however, his violence is framed as punishment and purification rather than personal rage. 12 13

He is deeply loyal to his fellow Offering Elders and treats Shen Zhou as a sworn younger brother. Although stern and easily irritated by Er Ha’s antics, he increasingly shows patience, reflection, and compassion in the new era. 2 48 75

His compassion is especially visible in his treatment of young people. He heals Huo Yun'er, recognizes Huo Yuhao’s upright temperament, shelters Blood Maiden despite her Holy Spirit Cult origin, and refuses to forcibly purify her martial soul because doing so could damage or shatter it. 6 14 80 83

Abilities & Skills

Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul

Qian Daoliu possesses the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, an inherited Qian-family martial soul with a strong affinity for light and purification.

Angelic Holy Light

His Angelic Holy Light destroys evil energy and purifies contaminated soul power. 13 80

• Incinerates evil soul masters from within and leaves them as ashes. 13
• Purifies the stolen soul power held by evil soul masters; a portion of that purified energy can return to him and advance his cultivation. 13
• Restrains light-vulnerable soul beasts, as seen when it traps the Radiant Lion for Yu Mengdi. 100
• Can gradually purify Blood Maiden’s corrupted Blood Soul Demon Puppet Martial Soul. 80 99

• Subdues a ten-thousand-year Bright Tiger without combat through Peerless Douluo pressure alone. 50
• Uses only 10% of his strength to defeat Yu Mengdi, Huo Yuhao, Tang Ya, Bei Bei, and Blood Maiden in a training exercise. 104
