Background / History

Meng Hongchen is Xiao Hongchen's younger sister and Jing Hongchen's granddaughter. She remains at Xiao's bedside during his coma, worries over his recovery, and is initially suspicious of his unusual interest in Shrek Academy 1.

After Xiao awakens a second martial soul, she reacts with astonishment and excitement, believing this could allow him to become both the strongest Soul Engineer and the strongest Soul Master 3. Jing Hongchen and Xiao keep Electrolux's existence from her to spare her further worry 3.

She accompanies Xiao Hongchen and Ye Guyi into the Star Dou Great Forest, where the three fight the Red Fire Monkey pack together 16. Later, she joins the Sun Moon Team for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Duel Tournament, supporting Xiao as he leads the team 52 58.

During the tournament, she develops an immediate crush on Wang Dong after seeing the Light Goddess Butterfly martial soul. She is embarrassed and disappointed upon learning that Wang Dong is a girl 60 61. Shortly afterward, she and Xiao develop an enhanced version of their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Red Dust Attachment 61.

She later receives extensive resources from Xiao, including immortal herbs, a 100,000-year Narcissus Jade Bone, a 100,000-year head soul bone, and a 70,000-year sixth soul ring 126. After her martial soul evolves toward Ultimate Ice, she respectfully persuades the Vermilion Clear Ice Toad King to become her Soul Spirit 146 147.

Appearance

Meng Hongchen is a silver-haired young woman with blue gradients in her hair and azure eyes 3.

• Stands 1.72 meters tall and weighs 55 kilograms 126.
• Wears a level-six ice-blue full-body Soul Tool armor in combat 16.
• Her armor forms ice-blue longswords and three pairs of compact flight wings 16.
• Her Soul Spirit, Little Zhu, is a palm-sized white Vermilion Clear Ice Toad with red eyes 147.

Personality

Meng is playful, sharp-tongued, and highly expressive around Xiao Hongchen. She frequently teases him over his arrogance, habits, and inventions, while also showing clear concern whenever he is injured, exhausted, or absent for too long 15 28 52.

Despite being somewhat spoiled and prone to small tantrums, she is selfless in important matters. When given the possibility of obtaining the 100,000-year Snow Empress Embryo and a second martial soul, she declines it because she would rather support Xiao's path to becoming the strongest 65.

She is also capable of maturity and respect. When seeking the Vermilion Clear Ice Toad King's cooperation, she acknowledges its long remaining lifespan and earnestly requests that it become her Soul Spirit rather than treating it as a resource to be taken 146.
