Su Haichao

Biodata

Power Progression

Background / History

Su Haichao adopted the abandoned Tang Shan and raised him alongside his son, Su Yuntao. He took Tang Shan’s unusual knowledge seriously enough to delay Yuntao’s first Soul Ring hunt for a year of physical training. When both sons objected to hunting in the dangerous Star Dou Great Forest, he chose a managed Soul Hunting Forest instead 1 2.

During the hunt, Haichao defeated a pack of Gray-Furred Wolves and incapacitated a nearly six-hundred-year-old leader suitable for Yuntao. He guarded his son through the ring absorption and recovered a rare right-arm Soul Bone from the wolf. Later, he submitted Tang Shan’s martial-soul theories to Spirit Hall, acting as an intermediary while the family kept its more consequential findings private 3 4 5 8.

After becoming a Soul Ancestor, Haichao accompanied both sons on a hunt for thousand-year Soul Rings. He later sought a transfer from Nuoding City to Heaven Dou City, supporting Yuntao’s wish to travel and Tang Shan’s plan to cultivate there. On the journey, he helped his sons kill the Evil Soul Master Dela and received a Spirit Hall reward token for their combined effort 11 22 29 47 48.

Appearance

Haichao is a fit, sharp-eyed middle-aged man. He wears armor while hunting; Lone Wolf possession makes his body swell, turns his pupils green, and extends claws from his fingers 3 22.

Personality

Haichao is protective without dismissing his sons’ judgment. He changes plans when they make a convincing case, supervises their dangerous hunts, and warns Yuntao that an arena match is not worth his life. He also refuses to spend Tang Shan’s Spirit Hall theory reward on himself 2 4 9 34.

As a Spirit Hall official, he is courteous and politically cautious. He deals politely with Yu Xiaogang despite doubting his qualifications, and orders his sons to stay alert when war with the Clear Sky Sect threatens to spread 15 20.
