Background / History

Qingkong began as the campus belle of Martial Arts University No. 7 and a celebrated Nine-Star Martial Artist. During the Guard Army Selection Tournament, Geng Junsheng's contempt for Chuan City's young geniuses led her to ally with Xiaoyuer against him. She agreed only after Xiaoyuer argued that fighting alone would mean certain death. 88

She led the attack on Geng Junsheng alongside Chu Yun and other Nine-Star Martial Artists, but Geng—already a Martial Master—badly outmatched them. Even after being injured, Qingkong continued fighting rather than surrendering. 106

After the tournament, she entered the First District Recruit Company and was reunited with Lin Chen. Her usually cold demeanor softens around him; while recovering from her injuries, she called his name in her dreams. 115 117 When Lin Chen disappeared from camp, she personally reported him missing and requested a search-and-rescue response, learning that he had gone to the front-line battlefield. 131

Qingkong refused to remain behind while Lin Chen fought at the front. She joined Xiaoyuer in advancing into the danger zones, fought through the night, and later faced a First-Level Bull Python Demon General in 0913 until Lin Chen intervened. 134 146 147 Chief Night Owl subsequently entrusted Lin Chen with Qingkong's protection during the Mystic Realm Ruins tournament. 179

During the Beast Race war, Qingkong remained on the front lines even when escape was possible. When Guard Army soldiers carved out a route for her to carry supplies away, she was forced to leave comrades behind who had chosen to die buying that chance. 225 Her determination intensified after the incident; following an unexplained period of unconsciousness, her Second Awakening manifested fully. 283 285

Appearance

Qingkong is a tall, striking woman whose usual expression and demeanor are cold and restrained. She is frequently seen in combat armor with a saber at her side. 88 117

• Wine-red hair, often described as falling over her shoulders. 88 117
• Exquisite features and cold, indifferent eyes. 88
• Originally wore Black Tungsten Battle Armor during the selection tournament. 88
• Later appears in white-and-red armor and, in the Myriad Races Genius Tournament, silver-white battle armor. 117 407
• Wields a battle saber and specializes in blade techniques. 88 302

Personality

Qingkong is resolute, blunt, and difficult to intimidate. When Xiaoyuer proposed an alliance against Geng Junsheng, Qingkong's primary concern was not danger but whether Xiaoyuer was wasting her time. 88 She repeatedly chooses the battlefield over safety, from joining the front lines to enduring the Beast Race counteroffensive. 134 225

Though known as the Iceberg Goddess, she is deeply loyal to Blue Star, the Guard Army, and the people she cares about. She rejects Blade Venerable's initial offer despite the promise of safety and power because Blue Star is her home and holds her family, comrades, and loved ones. 302 Her concern for Lin Chen is evident in her search request, warnings during battle, and eventual willingness to submit to Blade Venerable to spare his life. 131 185 303

Her time in the Blade Domain leaves her increasingly detached and suspicious. Even while cultivating under Blade Venerable, she questions why he is so determined for her to place in the tournament's top three and concludes that he is using her. 366 After learning that he erased her memories, she feels betrayed but ultimately recovers her sense of self and accepts Lin Chen's support. 511 584
