Background / History

Wu Changkong was originally an elder of Shrek Academy's Sea God Pavilion. During the final battle against the Abyssal Plane's Huadi, he burned all his soul power, used his body as a catalyst, and perished together with his opponent through the Skyfrost Sword. He was subsequently reincarnated twenty thousand years into the past. 1

In his new life, Wu Changkong resolved to live for himself rather than remain bound by his former hatred, responsibilities, and obsession with Long Bing. At age six, he awakened the Skyfrost Sword again and received an invitation from Spirit Hall, but declined because he did not want to be tied to another organization. 1 2

Shui Bing'er's resemblance to Long Bing convinced him that she might be Long Bing's reincarnation. He began cultivating obsessively, independently obtaining three thousand-year soul rings by age ten while repeatedly visiting the Shui Family residence in hopes of seeing her. 2 3

At thirteen, he finally introduced himself to Shui Bing'er and accompanied her and Shui Yue'er to Heavenwater Academy. After defeating Yu Tianxin in a single strike, he was exceptionally admitted as the academy's first male student in centuries. 4 8 9

Appearance

Wu Changkong is a white-haired youth whose refined appearance and cool, distant bearing regularly cause others to mistake him for a girl. His usual presence is quiet and frosty, contrasting sharply with his strength in battle. 5 8

• Silver-white hair and pale, cool-toned skin. 1 18
• Often wears plain white robes or white clothing. 8 70
• Has a lean but well-trained physique, with broad shoulders, a straight back, and strong arms developed through forging and body tempering. 11 18
• Uses a silver-white mask while competing at the Suotuo Great Soul Arena as Sky Ice. 70

Personality

Wu Changkong is calm, reserved, and difficult for strangers to approach. He deliberately conceals much of his power, believing that revealing every trump card before gaining sufficient self-protection is foolish. 3

Despite his cold exterior, he is earnest and straightforward in personal matters, particularly around Shui Bing'er. He is disciplined in cultivation, accepts responsibility for mistakes, and remains composed in dangerous situations. 4 29 54

His previous life's experiences give him an unusually mature perspective. He considers many peers childish, values actual combat over empty reputation, and is willing to challenge established theories when evidence contradicts them. 7 57 72

Abilities & Skills

Skyfrost Sword

Wu Changkong's ice-attributed tool martial soul is a pure-white sword resembling ancient ice. Its appearance sharply lowers the surrounding temperature and produces exceptionally sharp sword aura. 1 8

• Possesses three thousand-year soul rings and a ten-thousand-year fourth ring. 70
• His ice attribute partially resists and can even absorb ice-based suppression into his sword intent. 33
• His sword aura can be released and withdrawn with enough precision to strike an opponent's armor without unnecessarily injuring them. 34

Frostmark

His first Soul Skill launches a swift, crescent-shaped ice-blue sword aura. 33

• Defeated Yu Tianxin with a single Frostmark strike. 8
• Can be used as a controlled warning strike rather than a lethal attack. 33
• Overpowered Wind Sword after his sword intent had shattered the latter's clones. 70

Skyfrost Slash

• Shattered the Shi brothers' combined Black Tortoise defense in less than two seconds. 78
• Cracked the barrier of a spirit fighting arena during the Skywater Team's battle against the Imperial Team. 79

Physical Tempering

Wu Changkong combines soul-power cultivation with harsh physical training and the Meditation Body-Hammering Method. 2 18

• Trains through loaded mountain runs, climbing, and endurance exercises. 2
• His body could endure half the pressure of an rank 86 Soul Douluo; Shui Yu judged his physique comparable to a Soul Emperor's tempering. 26
