Background / History

Zhao Tian was an orphan of the Seven Treasures Orphanage and a transmigrator from Earth. At age six, he awakened the Radiant Phoenix, a legendary divine-beast martial soul, alongside innate full soul power. Ning Fengzhi recognized his value, while Chen Xin and Gu Rong competed to teach him; Zhao Tian ultimately became the personal disciple of Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong, as well as the sect's Young Sect Master. 1 2

His first two soul rings were selected for compatibility with the Radiant Phoenix: a Holy Light Phoenix for light and holy attributes, then a Crimson Flame Luan Bird to expand his offense with fire. The unusually smooth absorptions reflected the Radiant Phoenix's superior suppression over phoenix-bloodline soul beasts. 3 4 14 15

Ning Fengzhi named Zhao Tian the future son-in-law of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect and sent him to represent the sect in Spirit Hall's Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament preliminary selection. Zhao Tian won the tournament despite facing older and higher-level opponents, defeating Huo Wushuang, Tuoba Xin, Feng Xiaotian, and Yu Tianheng. 11 21 25 27 31

After the championship, Pope Bibi Dong attempted to recruit him into Spirit Hall. Zhao Tian publicly refused and reaffirmed his loyalty to the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect. His recitation of Bring in the Wine at the victory banquet then made him famous throughout Spirit City and beyond. 31 32 34

He continued cultivating rather than pursuing fame, eventually acquiring a 4,000-year Aurora Phoenix Sparrow third ring in the Extreme North and an 18,000-year Radiant Dragon Sparrow fourth ring. 36 43 45 50

At age 18, Zhao Tian became a Title Douluo. He later hunted and absorbed a 100,000-year Radiant Ancient Phoenix as his ninth ring, awakening the Radiant Phoenix God Position and achieving divinity. 51 52

Personality

Zhao Tian is calm, analytical, and unusually composed for his age. He avoids revealing knowledge that could expose his unusual origins, deliberately presenting himself as an orphan with limited soul-beast knowledge when necessary. 3

In battle, he identifies weaknesses, studies opponents' patterns, and prioritizes efficient counterattacks over direct clashes. He openly recognizes his own shortcomings—especially his early lack of speed—and seeks specific methods to correct them. 22 24 28 29

He is loyal to the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect and resistant to political inducements, declining both Spirit Hall's recruitment and Xue Qinghe's invitation to study at Heaven Dou Royal Academy. 31 32 40

Although his fame as a poet brings widespread admiration, Zhao Tian finds the attention exhausting and regards continued cultivation as more important than public acclaim. 35 36 43
