Background / History

Xia Yuan transmigrated into the world of Spirit Contracts and was immediately drawn from the Myriad Realms Spirit Card Pool by Jiang Li. Marked as an R-rank card—the lowest recognized rank—he was publicly ridiculed and nearly dissipated after Jiang Li severed their connection. Unknown to everyone else, he possessed a system that would let him become an SSR after forming a contract and gain further templates by filling a reward bar through combat. 1 2

Mo Shiyu recognized his hidden potential through her ability to inspect uncontracted spirits. She formed a soul contract with him at the last moment, saving him from disappearance and triggering his transformation into an SSR with the Satoru Gojo template. The academy’s Lucky Emperor Bell rang to announce the birth of an SSR. 2 3

Under Mo Shiyu’s contract, Xia Yuan rapidly rose through dungeon clearing, tournament battles, and Abyss operations. His victories against vastly higher-level enemies established him as an abnormality even among SSRs, while repeated system draws expanded his arsenal beyond the Gojo template. 10 28 98

After entering Kunlun University, Xia Yuan overwhelmed the institution’s first-year SSRs, defeated the United People’s three leaders alone, and became known as the absolute overlord of the freshman class. 149 150

His power later reached the UR tier. He defeated multiple world-class bounty bosses, reversed temporal exile with the Military Princess form, revived the dead of Kamizumi City, and repeatedly protected major cities from catastrophic attacks. 192 195 197 296

Appearance

Xia Yuan’s appearance changes with his active character template or combat form.

• Original R-rank form — A thin young man in a “Chinese Youth” T-shirt and flip-flops; onlookers considered him physically unimpressive. 1
• Satoru Gojo template — A man over 190 cm tall with silver-white hair, striking blue eyes, and a black blindfold. 3 10
• Golden Sparkle / Gilgamesh form — A regal, golden-themed form associated with Gate of Babylon and kingly mannerisms. 98 109
• Military Princess / War Princess form — A silver-haired girl in military uniform with ruby-like eyes, a military cap, and a composed, imposing demeanor. 195 235
• Saber form — A golden-haired, green-eyed knight in armor and a white cloak. 256
• Lancer form — A taller, divinized knightly form equipped with the holy lance Rhongomyniad. 281

Personality

Xia Yuan is intensely self-confident, theatrical, and openly narcissistic. He regularly calls himself the strongest, provokes opponents he considers inferior, and dismisses other SSRs as beneath comparison. 17 29 73

He is especially fond of teasing Mo Shiyu, most notably by calling her “Chubby Yu,” despite her repeated objections. His banter can be irritating, but he remains consistently loyal to her and refuses offers to change contractors regardless of the rewards offered. 4 10 20

Behind his arrogance, Xia Yuan is protective and pragmatic. He shields Mo Shiyu during assassinations, slows his dungeon-clearing pace for her sake, heals her after exhausting training, and takes responsibility for civilian safety in large-scale battles. 9 31 146 94

He is ruthless toward enemies he deems monstrous or irredeemable. This includes stripping hostile SSRs of their attributes, killing Victor’s controlled blood servants without hesitation, and reducing the former world-class boss Future to a restrained dependent. 205 283 199
