Background / History

Huo Yuhao is a transmigrator who retained memories of a previous life. He was reborn into the White Tiger Duke's Estate, where he and his mother, Huo Yun'er, endured poverty, abuse, and social humiliation. After Huo Yun'er's death, the eight-year-old Yuhao fled the estate, intending to grow strong enough to resurrect her through the Heavenly Creation Cauldron 1.

His escape ended when Ju Zi's agents abducted him and brought him to the Sun Moon Empire. Ju Zi introduced herself as his future wife, provided him with shelter and cultivation resources, and arranged his first soul ring. Though initially wary of her reborn knowledge and overwhelming control over his circumstances, Yuhao accepted her protection rather than return to the White Tiger Duke's Estate 1 2.

Under Ju Zi's support, he joined a household that included Ye Guyi, developed his alchemy and soul-tool talents, and created the Heavenly Origin Art. By age eleven, he entered the Star Dou Great Forest, joined the Tang Sect under Tang Ya, and deliberately sought out Tianmeng Iceworm as his second soul ring opportunity 13 19 20.

At Shrek Academy, Yuhao became a member of Freshman Class One alongside Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao. Their team won the freshman assessment, including a decisive victory over Dai Huabin—the White Tiger Duke's second son and a source of Yuhao's childhood trauma 52 57 58.

After Shrek publicly reinstated his core-disciple status, Yuhao left for the Far North to complete his incomplete second martial soul. There, he used the Titan Snow Demon King's sacrifice to shape the Titan Divine Blood martial soul and began cooperating with the Far North's fierce beasts through Tianmeng's god-making plan 68 80 81.

The Far North sacrifices fundamentally transformed Yuhao's body, martial soul, and cultivation. On his return, he possessed unprecedented soul-ring configurations, a self-reinforcing cycle between his physical body and spiritual power, and a fully awakened Divine-Rank Titan Divine Blood martial soul 86 87 93.

Although he considers Shrek's educational system outdated and its resources increasingly unnecessary, Yuhao returned to the academy because he believes remaining close to the original course of events is safer than provoking Tang San into direct intervention 86. He later stated that he intends to challenge the God Realm's prohibition on soul beasts becoming gods, while privately maintaining hostility toward Tang San 131.

In Heaven Dou City, Yuhao intervened as Tang Ya's grief over the Iron Blood Sect and the loss of the Tang Sect's headquarters began corrupting her martial soul. He comforted her, then persuaded her to step down and let him assume leadership of the Tang Sect. When the evil soul master Grudge Nether Douluo confronted them, Yuhao fought him with Titan Divine Blood; Elex later took control of Yuhao's body to counter the Douluo's attacks through spatial law 132 134 137 139 145 146.

Yuhao subsequently joined Shrek's tournament expedition. In the Ming Dou Mountain Range, he located the Death's Hand bandits and instantly froze their surviving leader, Death's Messenger, when the evil soul master tried to seize him. At the tournament in Star Luo City, Yuhao publicly acknowledged Ju Zi as the person he loved most and revealed his extraordinary Spirit Eyes soul-ring configuration during a semifinal against Meng Hongchen 149 150 151 162 163.

After helping Tang Ya return to Shrek, Yuhao entered the Golden Ancient Tree and met the weakened consciousness of the Douluo plane. It warned him against openly opposing Tang San, advised him to seek allies and the Emperor Auspicious Beast's power of fate, and gave him a sealed Nature Soul Ring and a Golden Seed. Yuhao then developed Ultimate Wood, advanced to Level 45, and condensed a tricolored soul core by stabilizing three opposing attributes in his dantian 184 185 186 187 188 189.

Appearance

Yuhao initially appears as a malnourished child from the White Tiger Duke's Estate. Ju Zi's resources and his own cultivation gradually restore his physique, leaving him sturdier and more balanced, with notably clear and bright eyes 10.

During the Far North arc, he appears as an exceptionally striking youth in snow-white robes, with waist-length ice-blue hair, deep-blue eyes, and snowflakes curving away from his body 84.

Following the perfection of Titan Divine Blood, Yuhao's appearance changes so drastically that Dugu Ling initially fails to recognize him. His skin becomes pale as snow, his ice-blue hair reaches his waist, and his features become exceptionally delicate and beautiful, while still retaining a recognizable resemblance to his prior appearance 85.

• Clear, unusually perceptive eyes enhanced by his Spirit Eyes martial soul.
• A physique repeatedly strengthened through medicine, gravity training, the Heavenly Origin Art, and Titan Divine Blood.
• An ice-blue aura and extreme-cold presence associated with his second martial soul 41 81.
• A near-otherworldly appearance resulting from the full awakening and perfection of his second martial soul 85 93.
• His transformed appearance attracts widespread attention during the tournament, including Meng Hongchen's immediate infatuation 152 162.

Personality

Yuhao is calm, calculating, and intensely research-oriented. He approaches cultivation, martial souls, medicine, and soul tools as systems that can be measured, tested, and improved. He favors data and repeatable results over conventional doctrine, often using Mind-Clearing and Spiritual Simulation to analyze matters other soul masters accept without question 11 12 39 54.

Despite his generally gentle presentation, he is secretive about his trump cards and highly resistant to coercion. He refuses to let Shrek, Yan Shaozhe, or others dictate his path through titles, threats, or political pressure 34 49 61.

His modern worldview also leaves him deeply hostile toward the class hierarchy of the White Tiger Duke's Estate. Dai Huabin's treatment of Huo Yun'er and the estate's abuse of the pair formed a lasting grudge that Yuhao intends to settle 55 59. When later faced with his biological father, Dai Hao, Yuhao maintains the distance he would from a stranger: he regards his mother as a victim of their society and attributes much of their suffering to its feudal order rather than reducing it to hatred of Dai Hao alone 149.

Yuhao remains composed even when confronting beings overwhelmingly stronger than himself, but his encounter with the Demon Empress reveals that this composure can conceal intense fear and pragmatic self-preservation. He survives dangerous situations through analysis, deception, and an ability to identify shared interests 131.

He is also increasingly willing to pursue long-term, disruptive goals. His stated opposition to Tang San and the God Realm stems from his belief that soul beasts cannot have a genuine future while they remain barred from godhood 131. Despite that hostility, he listens to the planar consciousness's warning against openly confronting Tang San before he has sufficient strength and allies 187.

His care for individuals does not imply loyalty to their institutions. He saves Tang Ya and helps Bei Bei while privately considering the Tang Sect's old methods inadequate; likewise, he treats his relationship with Shrek as transactional rather than believing that its support entitles it to his allegiance 132 185.

Abilities & Skills

Spirit Eyes and Mind-Clearing

Yuhao's first martial soul is a composite mutation of Spirit Eyes and a brain-type body martial soul. Its first soul skill, Mind-Clearing, directly improves his cognition rather than serving as a conventional attack 2 4.

• Greatly improves thought speed, neural reactions, eyesight, night vision, and resistance to mental fatigue 4.
• Allows him to process large quantities of alchemical, cultivation, and soul-tool data without becoming mentally overwhelmed 11.
• Can maintain extreme rationality and precision while managing overwhelming energy, as shown during the Titan Snow Demon King's sacrifice 80.
• Enables Tianmeng to temporarily materialize a spiritual body when combined with Mental Telekinesis 71.
• Allows Yuhao to break down the internal state of another person's body and martial soul into analyzable data, enabling him to reconstruct Ma Xiaotao's destabilized martial-soul origin 125.
• Forms a self-reinforcing cycle with Titan Divine Blood: his strengthened blood nourishes his brain, while his spiritual power continuously strengthens his body and accelerates cultivation 87.
• His close spiritual connection with Elex while Elex controlled his body exposed Yuhao to higher-level laws of nature and space, deepening his ability to analyze soul-power structures 159.
• He does not have access to Spirit Eyes skills such as Spirit Detection, Space Control, and Mental Telekinesis while using Titan Divine Blood as his active martial soul 139.

Heavenly Creation Cauldron

The Heavenly Creation Cauldron is Yuhao's greatest secret. It resides within his Sea of Spirit and possesses storage, conversion, analysis, nurturing, and refinement functions 4.

• Stores items and beings within its internal space, though its capacity is restricted by Yuhao's cultivation 4.
• Converts energy and matter into Creation Origin, which can nurture objects toward their theoretical peak 4.
• Nurtures soul rings and their attached soul skills over time 7.
• Reverse-engineers finished pills to identify their ingredients, processes, and improved formulas 11.
• Restrained the conflict between Tianmeng and Elex in Yuhao's Sea of Spirit; later forcibly sealed Elex within itself 21 22.
• Refines powerful pills, including Red Jade Pills and more than a thousand Nine-Turn Profound Ice Pills 8 83.
• Stored the Firmament-Shaking Sacred Dragon before its planned sacrifice and later refined the remains of the Great Sun Phoenix into pure Phoenix Bloodline essence 122 128.
• Eventually allowed Yuhao to communicate with Elex and explain the Douluo Continent's martial-soul and soul-ring system to him 105.

Alchemy

Yuhao is an exceptional alchemist whose work relies on the Heavenly Creation Cauldron's analysis and refinement capabilities.

• Refined Red Jade Pills from whale gelatin and common herbs; each pill is comparable to a portion of thousand-year whale gelatin while containing fewer impurities 8 9.
• Improved the Soul Ascension Pill and Profound Water Pill formulas, reducing both their material costs and waste 11.
• Independently deduced the Blue Jade Pill, which restores soul power and temporarily improves cultivation speed 11.
• Independently deduced the Azure Jade Pill, which stimulates brain activity and gradually improves spiritual power through long-term use 11.
• Refined Nine-Turn Profound Ice Pills using Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow and materials supplied by the Far North's fierce beasts 83.
• Used a Nine-Turn Profound Ice Pill to begin cultivating a Mirror Shadow Beast as a future source of a replication-type soul skill 131.

Heavenly Origin Art

Yuhao developed the Heavenly Origin Art after spending half a year studying the effects of Profound Water Pills and mapping optimized meridian circulation routes 12 13.

• Accelerates soul power cultivation.
• Strengthens the body by nourishing muscles, bones, and special acupoints during circulation 13.
• Provides gradual spiritual-power improvement.
• Can continue circulating automatically during daily activity once established 12.
• Enabled Ye Guyi to improve her cultivation far more efficiently than conventional meditation 13.
• Was later practiced by Xiao Xiao, contributing to her unusually high soul power reserves 38.
• Can be used alongside Mind-Clearing and Spiritual Link to regulate another person's soul power and martial-soul origin, as demonstrated while saving Ma Xiaotao from the Great Sun Phoenix's backlash 122 125.

Tianmeng Iceworm's Spiritual Soul Skills

Tianmeng Iceworm became Yuhao's Wisdom Soul Ring, disguising its million-year origin as a white ten-year soul ring. The ring granted four spiritual abilities 20 22.

• Spirit Detection — Perceives movements, breathing, muscular exertion, and battlefield details with exceptional precision. Yuhao shares this information with allies in combat 52 58.
• Spiritual Link — Creates a direct mental network for transmitting speech, images, perspectives, and sensations between connected targets 22 53.
• Spiritual Simulation — Builds precise mental models for deduction and combat prediction; can also create illusions and implant them through Spiritual Link 22 35 54.
• Mental Telekinesis — Materializes spiritual force to crush objects, restrain opponents, create barriers, and assist Tianmeng's temporary physical manifestation 22 57 71.
• Spiritual Shock — Releases concentrated spiritual power as a destructive mental attack. After the Far North arc, a single shock is assessed as capable of incapacitating a Soul Douluo 87.
• His enhanced Spirit Detection eventually gains an omnidirectional range of approximately three kilometers and a focused range of up to ten kilometers, sufficient to expose the concealed Deep Sea Demonic Whale King 128.

Space Control

The three-hundred-thousand-year Heavenfrost Snow Fox became the third soul ring of Yuhao's Spirit Eyes brain martial soul, granting it a rare spatial attribute and Space Control 90.

• Manipulates spatial power through his Spirit Eyes and immense spiritual strength.
• Can form invisible spatial cuts capable of slicing through Heavy Silver 90.
• Provides a difficult-to-perceive offensive option that contributed to the collapse of the assassins' coordinated killing formation 99.
• Requires extensive calculation and output modeling to use efficiently and safely 90.

Titan Divine Blood

Yuhao shaped his incomplete ultimate-ice origin into Titan Divine Blood, a special body martial soul created from the Titan Snow Demon King's sacrificial origin energy 80 81.

• Carries extreme cold and a domineering divine quality 81.
• Integrates into his blood and continually strengthens his body through the Heavenly Origin Art's circulation 81.
• Lets him refine, discard, and reshape incoming energy rather than passively accepting a soul beast's original form 80.
• Gained a high-age soul ring and the Titan Snow Demon King's left arm bone through A-Tai's sacrifice 81.
• Later gained the Ice Empress's four-hundred-thousand-year soul ring and torso bone 82.
• Fully awakened into a Divine-Rank martial soul whose foundations include Titan Bloodline, Ice God Bloodline, Divine White Tiger Bloodline, and Extreme Ice 93.
• Displays three genuine three-hundred-thousand-year soul rings when summoned, in contrast to the altered ring appearance of his Spirit Eyes 86.
• Absorbed Extreme Fire while stabilizing Ma Xiaotao's martial soul, becoming a dual-extreme-attribute soul master 125.
• Gained the Firmament-Shaking Sacred Dragon's True Dragon Bloodline and lightning origin through its sacrifice 128.
• Absorbed refined Great Sun Phoenix essence, adding Phoenix Bloodline to its composition 128.
• Contains the bloodlines of the Titan Ancient God, Ice God, True Dragon, Divine White Tiger, Divine Phoenix, and Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion 128.
• Later manifests four blood-red, hundred-thousand-year-or-higher rings in battle. Its attributes include Extreme Ice, Extreme Fire, Extreme Water, Extreme Wind, and lightning 137 138.
• Ice Jade Godslayer Spear — An Ice Empress-derived soul skill with penetration and aura-tracking properties. Its Emperor Ice Poison can freeze a target's meridians, organs, and soul-power core and erode soul rings 139.
• Eternal Frozen Domain — An Ice Empress-derived domain skill that changes the surrounding environment and raises ice pillars to restrict an opponent; Yuhao considered it capable of suppressing the Great Sun Phoenix's advantage in its volcanic habitat 120 139.
• Titan Divine Might — Triples his strength, speed, defense, mental power, soul power, and elemental control 139.
• Divine Blood Boiling — Activates his powerful bloodlines, doubling soul-power circulation and further strengthening his soul skills. Its effects include increased strength, lethality, vitality, and ice power 139.
• Tiger Roar Thunderclap and Tiger Bone Blood Fiend — Skills used against Grudge Nether Douluo; the former combines sound, lightning, and spiritual shock to disrupt wraiths and Grudge Threads 140.
• Received a golden Nature Soul Ring from the planar consciousness. The ring is sealed until Rank 50 rather than being an active fifth ring 187.

Elemental Cultivation and Soul Core

Yuhao experiments with changing the fundamental attributes of Titan Divine Blood rather than treating its inherited powers as fixed 97 125 188.

• Began restructuring Extreme Ice into Extreme Water through spiritual modeling and precise control of a strand of soul power 97.
• Retained Extreme Fire after helping Ma Xiaotao, initially keeping it and Extreme Ice on separate circulation routes in a balanced, spring-like cycle within his dantian. His reserves subsequently approached 90,000 HL, leading him to conclude that the conventional cultivation system could limit his growth 125.
• Developed a circulation framework that transformed Extreme Ice into nourishing Extreme Water and created Ultimate Wood. The surge of vitality advanced him from Level 43 to Level 45 188.
• Balanced water, fire, and wood as mutually interacting forces and condensed them into a small, tricolored soul core at the center of his dantian's Icefire Spring. He drew on soul-core knowledge Bing Hanxue had shared through Spiritual Link 189.

Icebound Celestial Phoenix and Ice-Fire Divine Phoenix

Before Titan Divine Blood fully stabilized, Yuhao could temporarily shape his incomplete second martial soul into an Icebound Celestial Phoenix or Frostheaven Ice Phoenix manifestation through its resonance with Ma Xiaotao's Evil Fire Phoenix 53 60.

• Used the Icebound Celestial Phoenix's extreme cold to freeze Wu Feng's dragonfire during the freshman-assessment final 60.
• Developed a martial-soul fusion skill with Ma Xiaotao, the Ice-Fire Divine Phoenix, through the fusion of extreme cold and extreme heat 54 122.
• Fully decoded the fusion skill's soul-power model through Spiritual Simulation but could not initially reproduce it alone because he lacked true command of the Extreme Fire attribute 122.
• Later acquired Extreme Fire, creating the foundation necessary to continue researching independent use of the ice-fire fusion principle 125.

Soul-Tool Engineering

Yuhao possesses extraordinary talent for soul-tool design, aided by his memory, calculation ability, and unconventional understanding of circuits and energy systems 14 15.

• Completed multiple basic core formations flawlessly on his first day of instruction 14.
• Created a composite core formation by linking four basic formations without prior formal teaching 14.
• Collaborated with Xuan Ziwen to create a Gravity Soul Tool that helped Ye Guyi break through to Rank 40 15.
• Co-created the Milk Bottle, a soul tool that stores and returns soul power 16.
• Helped establish the soul power unit system, allowing soul power to be measured quantitatively 16 17.
• Identified Glazed Crystal as an almost lossless soul power conduction medium suitable for advanced soul-tool construction 46.
• His post-Far North physical examination exceeded the limits of the base's testing equipment, with his spiritual power surpassing that of an ordinary Titled Douluo and his physical capacity exceeding Soul King standards 87.
• Reverse-engineered the soul-power circuits of an Ice Jade Scorpion soul bone to understand the compression, transmission, and internal detonation underlying Ice Blast, despite being unable to absorb the bone himself 156 159.

Seven-Day Love Lock

A close-quarters restraint technique Yuhao uses to exploit an opponent's momentum and immobilize their arms.

• Defeated Wang Dong without soul skills by evading her attacks and locking her wrists behind her back 28 29.
• Restrained Dai Huabin long enough for Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao to eliminate his teammates during the freshman-assessment semifinal 58.
• Relies on observation, timing, physical control, and Spirit Detection rather than brute force.

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Heavenly Creation Cauldron — His concealed divine artifact and foundation for alchemy, storage, and creation-based nurturing 4.
• Defensive soul tools — Supplied by Ju Zi before his expedition to the Jingyang Mountains 17.
• Soul-powered sword — Given to him by Ye Guyi before he entered the Far North 70.
• Titan Snow Demon King's Left Arm Bone — Acquired while shaping Titan Divine Blood 81.
• Ice Empress's Torso Bone — Acquired with the Ice Empress's sacrifice 82.
• Flying Soul Tool — Used to flee the Demon Empress's territory after surviving her interrogation 131.
• Four Saints Profound Qilin Armor — Five-colored battle armor worn when Death's Messenger attempted to seize him 150.
• Ice Jade Scorpion's Left Arm Bone — A sixty-thousand-year soul bone Ju Zi gave him. It carries Ice Blast, but Yuhao cannot absorb it while the Titan Snow Demon King's bone occupies his left arm slot 156 159.
• Golden Seed — Given by the planar consciousness. Refining it could allow him to gain the continent's recognition as Child of Nature, provided he can guide it with a suitable wood or life attribute 187.

Relationships

• Ju Zi — His self-declared fiancée, benefactor, and primary supporter. She removed him from the White Tiger Duke's Estate, funded his cultivation, and made him Young Pavilion Master of the Spirit Medicine Pavilion 1 9 24. She remains deeply possessive yet deliberately supports the talented people gathering around Yuhao, viewing them as potential future allies so long as she retains her position beside him 69. Yuhao later publicly accepts her as his fiancée and says she is the person he loves most, explaining that she rescued and raised him and became both family and emotional refuge 150 151.
• Ye Guyi — His adopted sister and training companion. Yuhao treats her as family, while she comes to rely on the home and future that he and Ju Zi provide 3 13 69. She is overjoyed by his return from the Far North and retains a teasing, sibling-like dynamic with him despite being overwhelmed by his changed appearance and strength 85 87. Her admiration and trust have deepened as she has watched him grow from the child she first knew into someone she regards as an anchor in her life 177.
• Tianmeng Iceworm — Yuhao's million-year Wisdom Soul Ring and partner in the god-making plan. Tianmeng provides spiritual soul skills, guidance, and companionship 20 21 71. Through Mind-Clearing and Mental Telekinesis, Tianmeng can temporarily form a spiritual body outside Yuhao's Sea of Spirit 71.
• Xuan Ziwen — His soul-tool teacher and research partner. Their complementary theoretical and technical strengths led to the Gravity Soul Tool, Milk Bottle, and soul power unit system 14 15 16. Xuan Ziwen remains fascinated by Yuhao as a scientific anomaly after his Far North transformation 87.
• Tang Ya — Tang Sect leader who accepted Yuhao as her junior disciple and encouraged him to attend Shrek Academy 19 22. Yuhao later finds her in Heaven Dou City and gently comforts her after learning that she had endured hardship alone for years 134. He interrupts her descent toward evil-soul-master corruption and persuades her to transfer the Tang Sect leadership to him. She is subsequently confined under supervision at Shrek because her martial soul remains dangerously mutated 132 134 184 185.
• Bei Bei — Yuhao's Tang Sect senior brother and an early supporter during his journey through the Star Dou Great Forest 19 23. Bei Bei later tries to kneel in gratitude for Yuhao's rescue of Tang Ya; Yuhao stops him and jokes that proper thanks would be to call him Sect Master 185.
• Wang Dong — His Shrek roommate, teammate, rival, and frequent source of conflict. She develops feelings for Yuhao, which he does not reciprocate at this stage 28 50 63. During his absence in the Far North, she continued cleaning his bed and worried that he had permanently left Shrek 86 90. Yuhao's public declaration that Ju Zi is the person he loves most leaves Wang Dong visibly hurt 151.
• Xiao Xiao — His classmate and freshman-assessment teammate. She practices the Heavenly Origin Art and grows to respect Yuhao's abilities 25 38 52.
• Ma Xiaotao — An Inner Court student whose Evil Fire Yuhao can suppress with Ultimate Ice. He refuses a formal engagement but continues helping her, while she becomes emotionally dependent on him 49 51 53. After his martial soul fully awakens, their original compatibility diminishes, but his superior soul power gradually reconstructs her martial-soul origin and helps her survive the backlash from the Great Sun Phoenix soul ring 93 122 125. Their closeness later becomes more openly intimate, though Yuhao also stages a reason to leave her on Heavenly Phoenix Island 127 179.
• Dai Huabin — The White Tiger Duke's second son and Yuhao's childhood enemy. Dai's abuse and contempt toward Yuhao's family fuel Yuhao's desire for retribution 55 58 59. Dai later organizes an assassination attempt against Yuhao, is expelled from Shrek, and kills the White Tiger Duchess after a mental suggestion Yuhao implanted in him takes effect 97 117.
• Dai Hao — His biological father and the White Tiger Duke. Yuhao does not seek a conversation with him during Shrek's visit to the Star Luo military camp; he regards Dai Hao with detached indifference and considers the feudal system a central cause of his family's tragedy 149.
• Snow Empress / Bing Hanxue — A powerful Far North soul beast who recognizes Yuhao's potential and supports his god-making plan without agreeing to become his martial soul 75 78. After her tribulation, Yuhao infers that she survived by taking human form and later recognizes her as Bing Hanxue at the tournament 132 152. Knowledge she shared through Spiritual Link helps him condense his soul core 189.
• Ice Empress — A Far North fierce beast whose four-hundred-thousand-year sacrifice provided Yuhao with a soul ring and torso bone, greatly advancing Titan Divine Blood 82. She urges him to obtain her clan's Ice Blast inheritance when Ju Zi gives him an Ice Jade Scorpion soul bone 156.
• Firmament-Shaking Sacred Dragon — A three-hundred-thousand-year soul beast nurtured through Yuhao's pills. It trusts him completely and willingly sacrifices itself, providing True Dragon Bloodline, lightning origin, and his fourth soul ring 122 128.
• Dugu Ling — A ninety-third-rank Titled Douluo who escorts Yuhao from the Far North and initially mistakes him for an impostor because of his transformed appearance 85.
• Elex — A powerful being residing within Yuhao's Sea of Spirit. After the Heavenly Creation Cauldron initially sealed him, Yuhao later explains the Douluo Continent's martial-soul system to him 22 105. Elex takes control of Yuhao's body during the confrontation with Grudge Nether Douluo; experiencing his manipulation of laws expands Yuhao's own understanding. Elex later experiments with reconstructing soul rings and martial souls inside the Sea of Spirit 145 146 159.
• Demon Empress — An overwhelmingly powerful sea soul beast who interrogates Yuhao about his identity and goals. She spares him not out of trust, but because his stated opposition to Tang San and the God Realm may make him useful 131.
• Deep Sea Demonic Whale King — An ocean overlord who investigates the Firmament-Shaking Sacred Dragon's sacrifice, only to be detected through Yuhao's enhanced Spirit Detection despite using a concealment technique 128.
• Grudge Nether Douluo — A Titled Douluo evil soul master who interprets Yuhao's Titan Divine Blood as proof that he is a prophesied Holy Son. Yuhao uses their confrontation to test his martial soul's combat skills before Elex intervenes against the Douluo's attacks 138 139 145 146.
• Meng Hongchen — A Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy contestant immediately infatuated with Yuhao's appearance. She nevertheless attacks him with her poisonous Zhuqing Ice Toad martial soul when they face each other in a tournament semifinal 152 162 163.
• Douluo plane consciousness — A weakened will within the Golden Ancient Tree that regards Yuhao as its chosen one. It warns him about Tang San, urges him to gather allies and seek the Emperor Auspicious Beast, and spends its remaining strength to give him a sealed Nature Soul Ring and Golden Seed 185 186 187.
