Background

Lu Chen enrolled at Notting Academy as a work-study student. After the gatekeeper challenged his martial-spirit certificate, Lu Chen forced the issue by taking him to Spirit Hall; he subsequently entered the academy and defeated Wang Sheng to become Dormitory 7’s boss. He also rejected Yu Xiaogang’s attempt to approach him. 4

At the academy, he discovered that his meditation method absorbed heaven-and-earth energy at twice the ordinary speed. He and Xiao Wu represented the work-study students in a class competition and won all three matches. 8

His cultivation accelerated through hunts for high-age spirit beasts, self-created skills, immortal herbs, spirit bones, and Life Spirit Rings. His hidden identity as a transformed Blue Silver Emperor eventually became public, making him the target of Spirit Hall and multiple major factions. 49 53 54

Personality

Lu Chen is independent and unwilling to submit to powerful organizations. He refused recruitment by both the Heaven Dou imperial family and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect despite direct pressure from Gu Rong. 23

He is calculating in battle, using spatial abilities, concealment, and target selection to overcome stronger or better-supported opponents. During the battle against the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, he bypassed Gu Rong’s defense to kill Ning Fengzhi rather than continuing to pursue Chen Xin. 91 92

He is also protective of those close to him. He defended Dugu Bo against Tang Hao, provided resources and guidance for Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Dugu Yan, and risked confrontation with Spirit Hall to restore Xiao Wu’s mother. 102 115 149
