Background
Mo Chen taught Soul Tool crafting at a secret research site, where the other researchers addressed him as “Teacher.” He initially presented himself simply as a Soul Engineer who instructed students and resolved technical problems. After meeting Feng Xiaoyuan and Grey Wolf, he invited them to remain at the site as his students and provided Feng with his personally compiled Level One to Eight Soul Tool Manufacturing Manual. 114
He spent a month establishing Feng Xiaoyuan and Grey Wolf's foundation in core formations, energy storage, energy conduction, Soul Power circuits, attribute conversion, mental-power control, materials, and Soul Tool stability. Rather than rushing their progress, Mo Chen emphasized that a solid foundation was essential before advancing to higher-level crafting. 114
After supervising their creation of Soul Tools from Level One through Level Five, Mo Chen personally tested the more dangerous high-level devices and recognized the exceptional speed of their development. He then proposed taking Feng Xiaoyuan to Divine Craftsman City, describing it as the center of the continent's most advanced Soul Guidance technology. 116 117
Before departing, Mo Chen asked Feng Xiaoyuan to disclose his true cultivation and prior experience with Soul Tools. Feng revealed that he was eighteen and at the seventh stage of the Heart-Aligning Realm; Mo Chen honored his request for secrecy and remained determined to bring him to Divine Craftsman City. 118
At the Soul Engineer Association headquarters, Mo Chen's standing became apparent when numerous Soul Engineers greeted him respectfully. His identity was later confirmed as one of the association's Level Ten Soul Engineers. He introduced Feng to President Gongye Changkong, enrolled him directly into the Soul Engineer Academy's sixth year, and continued supporting his education there. 122 125 128
Personality
Mo Chen is patient and methodical as an instructor. He prioritizes fundamental understanding over quick results and gives his students room to observe, study, and develop before expecting them to craft advanced Soul Tools. 114
He is also discreet and trustworthy. Although he questioned Feng Xiaoyuan's extraordinary ability, he accepted Feng's request to keep his strength confidential rather than exposing it to the association. 118
Despite his initially understated manner, Mo Chen is protective of his disciple. He openly attended Feng Xiaoyuan's arena match to support him and intervened alongside Gongye Changkong when Xu Tianmo attacked Feng during the contest. 138 140
