Background / History

Li Chaoge rose to prominence at Tianyan Academy after winning the Freshman Exchange Trial individual competition and becoming the academy's acknowledged foremost third-year student. Her performance on the Demon Cave frontline earned her an exceptional promotion to captain of a special operations squad, while her strength and family influence secured her position as student council president. 192 237

As president, she turned the student council into a tightly controlled organization whose members followed her orders without question. She rewarded loyal members with equipment, Eternal-series pills, and materials from her frontline and Secret Realm gains. 239

Her interest in Ling Zhan began after reviewing his record and discovering that his rise closely resembled her own: he had taken first place in the freshman trial and surpassed her Secret Realm Hall record. She initially attempted to recruit him into her frontline squad, but his refusal created a hostile first encounter. 237 242

Personality

Li Chaoge is outwardly cold, proud, decisive, and accustomed to having her will obeyed. Her strong need for control shaped the student council into a personal power base, although she is generous toward those loyal to her. 239

Around Ling Zhan, her composure frequently gives way to embarrassment, jealousy, and possessiveness. She publicly named him her intended dance partner, used him to repel unwanted suitors, and continued pursuing him despite his indifference. 238 246 260 537
