Story Role / Major Arcs

Search for Bald Qiang

Ju Guan first reports Bald Qiang’s appearance in Tiandou City to Bibi Dong, including the presence of nine Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings and Qin Feng’s widely spread claim of being Bibi Dong’s fiancé. Bibi Dong orders him to seek Bald Qiang’s recruitment. 3

He leads Spirit Hall personnel into the Xingdou Great Forest despite knowing that a Rank 93 Title Douluo could perish there. After losing several men during the search, he orders the surviving force into the inner region. 8 10

Recruitment Attempt and Xingdou Great Forest Defeat

At Bald Qiang’s cabin, Ju Guan reveals Spirit Hall’s recruitment purpose. When Qin Feng refuses, Ju Guan invokes the Pope’s secret order to kill Qin Feng if negotiations fail. 12

He joins Sword Douluo in attacking Bald Qiang, but neither their coordinated assault nor their eighth Soul Skills can damage Bald Qiang’s barrier. 13 He later uses his Martial Soul Avatar and Ninth Soul Skill while Bald Qiang is occupied defending Qin Feng, but Yuan Tiangang’s arrival forces him to flee. 14 15

Ju Guan returns to Martial Soul City exhausted and injured, reporting that Spirit Hall’s expedition was annihilated and that Qin Feng’s side possesses two Extreme Douluo. 16

Spirit Hall War and Submission

When Spirit Hall attacks Qin Feng’s faction, Ju Guan is held in close combat by Dajin. Qin Feng’s sudden emergence as a Title Douluo shocks him, especially because Qin Feng had previously relied on others for protection. 48

He later oversees Black-White Xuanjian’s match against Godwind Academy and prepares to prevent a fatality after recognizing Xuanjian’s restraint. 65 He also officiates tournament matches involving Qin Feng’s summoned competitors, including the Six Sword Slaves and Shrek Academy. 69 71
