Background / History
Wang Sheng entered Notting Academy as one of two work-study students in Qi Dao's first-year class. Despite possessing innate Level 3 soul power, he was looked down upon by classmates because of his background. Qi Dao refused to accept this prejudice and told the other students to settle any contempt through strength instead. 11
Qi Dao's example changed Wang Sheng's outlook and standing at the academy. Wang Sheng credits Qi Dao with inspiring him to cultivate seriously, helping him reach Level 10, and finding people to help him acquire a hundred-year first soul ring. 19
When Tang San and Xiao Wu arrive, Wang Sheng has been leading Dorm Seven. Xiao Wu subsequently becomes its leader after defeating Tang San, who had defeated Wang Sheng. Wang Sheng nevertheless reveres Qi Dao as the academy's true boss and considers him his greatest benefactor. 19
After his time at Notting Academy, Wang Sheng passes the entrance examination for an advanced Soul Master academy in Fasinuo Province alongside Xiao Chenyu, Liu Long, and Ling Feng. Years later, the four travel to Heaven Dou City hoping to watch Qi Dao compete in the Soul Master Tournament. Qi Dao offers them exchange-student places at Heaven Dou Academy, which they accept. 108 111
Personality
Wang Sheng is grateful and loyal, particularly toward Qi Dao. He openly defends Qi Dao's achievements and rejects the idea that low innate soul power determines a person's future. 19 20
He is also blunt. His harsh comments about Yu Xiaogang anger Tang San and damage their friendship, but Wang Sheng does not retract his position or force Tang San to accept it. Years later, he again calls Yu Xiaogang a freeloader when he spots him with Shrek Academy, provoking Tang San's anger. 20 109
Relationships
- Qi Dao — Benefactor and the only “boss” Wang Sheng recognizes. Qi Dao defended him from class prejudice, inspired his cultivation, and helped arrange his first soul-ring hunt. Wang Sheng remains devoted to him years later; Qi Dao welcomes their reunion, praises his progress, and offers him an exchange-student place at Heaven Dou Academy. 11 19 108 111
- Tang San — Former dormmate and initially a friend; their relationship becomes strained after Wang Sheng disparages Yu Xiaogang in front of Tang San. When they meet again years later, Wang Sheng does not immediately recognize him, but his renewed criticism of Yu Xiaogang angers Tang San. 20 24 109
- Xiao Wu — Former dormmate whom he addresses as “Sister Xiao Wu.” He warns her that challenging Qi Dao will end in defeat and relays her challenge to Qi Dao. 19 22
- Xiao Chenyu, Liu Long, and Ling Feng — Fellow supporters of Qi Dao; they are among the students Wang Sheng identifies as unable to contribute money for Qi Dao's departure. The four later enter the same advanced academy and reunite with Qi Dao at the Soul Master Tournament. 26 108 111
- Dugu Yan — Qi Dao's teammate. Wang Sheng and the other visiting friends jokingly call her their “sister-in-law”; she denies being Qi Dao's partner but is pleased by the teasing and offers to give the visitors medicinal plants from her grandfather's collection. 108
