Background / History

Fang Bai transmigrated from Earth into a high-level martial arts world. Before awakening, he was the top student of Magic City Third Middle School, but he found peaceful academic life dull and wanted to fight Demonic Beasts beyond Dragon Country’s Wall. His parents are Tier 6 Martial Artists stationed at the Wall. 1 3 12

After awakening the Lightning Element and gaining the Monster Slaying Rebate System, Fang Bai became bound to a one-month quest to kill ten Tier 1 Demonic Beasts; failure would cause the system to self-destruct. This deadline drives his early insistence on entering the front lines rather than continuing ordinary studies. 1

Director Liu recruits him as a special-enrollment student at Modu Martial Academy, allowing him to attempt the second-year assessment directly. Fang Bai joins Qi Tian, Xiao Yuan, and A Xiu in the Willow Leaf Town anomaly operation, where he is selected as their captain despite initially being the squad’s weakest member. 3 4 9

During the operation, Fang Bai makes his first Demonic Beast kill, rapidly grows through system rebates, and completes his initial ten-kill quest. He earns Lightning Domain, a Dark Element awakening, a nuclear warhead, and other rewards while surviving the beast tide. 12 14 17 18

At the Martial Academy, Fang Bai enters Gemini Class One. He and Qi Tian establish themselves through practical combat, defeating the stronger Han Ju through coordination, Dark Element concealment, and Fang Bai’s willingness to trade injury for an opening. 29 31

Fang Bai later joins Li Xue’s A-rank mission in the Thunder Moon Forest alternate dimension. He scouts independently, hunts Demonic Beasts to accumulate power, breaks through both attributes to Second Order, and uses his system-provided nuclear bomb against a massive Demonic Beast pursuit. 37 39 41 45 48

Personality

Fang Bai is intensely motivated by growth through killing Demonic Beasts. He openly prioritizes survival, yet repeatedly takes dangerous action when it benefits his team or creates an opportunity to gain resources. He lures powerful Demonic Beasts away from Li Xue’s group when they are threatened, while also raiding lairs, collecting corpses, and scavenging battlefields for profit. 4 15 45 49

He is quick-witted, opportunistic, and frequently manipulative. He leverages Martial Academy regulations against Gao Wang, initially tries to secure Xiao Yuan’s protection by offering literacy lessons, claims friendship with Qi Zhen to gain information, and extorts Yu Bing with compromising material. 2 6 20 46

Despite his scheming, Fang Bai earns trust through battlefield performance. He leads his original squad, works effectively with Qi Tian, follows Li Xue’s command during the A-rank mission, and recognizes the value of cooperation when facing threats beyond his level. 9 14 31 39
