| Occupation/Role | Broadcaster and judge of comparisons between Douluo Star and Huaxia Star 2 9 15 |
| Status | Active; conducting the talent comparison 76 77 78 79 |

Background / History
The Sky Screen appeared without warning above Douluo Star and Huaxia Star. It showed Douluo Star as a sphere and Huaxia Star approaching it. Neither Chen Tian nor the Asura God knew who had created the screen; the Asura God's sword strike passed straight through it, and Chen Tian's divine power could not affect it 1.
It began a series of comparisons between the planets, announcing categories, displaying evidence, naming winners, and granting rewards. Its first comparison concerned ordinary people's lifespans rather than combat strength: 67 years on Douluo Star against 1,458 on Huaxia Star 2 3 9.
After comparing support Martial Souls and Martial Soul research, it expanded its assessments to military strength, livelihoods, technology, culture, and talent. Huaxia Star's successive victories brought rewards affecting its population, Martial Souls, industry, knowledge, and civilization-wide development 26 43 55 64 74 76.
Its broadcasts also exposed historical causes of Douluo Star's difficulties, including the Divine Realm's suppression of technology, destruction of cultural inheritance, and persecution of talented individuals beyond its control. These revelations weakened confidence in the gods and encouraged support for Spirit Hall's Huaxia-aligned reforms 63 66 68 79.
Appearance

Abilities & Functions
Planetary Comparisons
- Calculates and announces results, including each planet's average mortal lifespan 3.
- Presents explanations and footage: it shows oppression on Douluo Star, Huaxia Star's Giant Wheat and equal citizenship, and demonstrations of Martial Souls and Soul Ring research 4 6 7 13 21.
- Names the subjects of later rounds, including the strongest support Martial Souls and strongest Martial Soul research 12 17 18.
- Compares military strength, military might, and war potential. Its Douluo-side presentation includes the Divine Realm's military parade and the Sun Moon Empire's Soul Tool army, while its Huaxia-side presentation covers Soul Master forces, mechanized warfare, space fleets, and military industry 27 29 33 41 43.
- Assesses economic systems and public welfare rather than treating powerful individuals as sufficient evidence of planetary prosperity. It examines disasters, warfare, resource monopolies, exploitation, and merchants' lack of protection on Douluo Star 47 48 49.
- Evaluates technological development and its institutional foundations, identifying the Divine Realm's interference as a cause of Douluo Star's technological backwardness 59 62 63.
- Evaluates cultural inheritance, the preservation and transmission of knowledge, and culture's influence across species and planetary boundaries 66 68 69 70.
- Begins the talent comparison with Douluo Star's historical talents and the conditions governing their development, including competition over divine seats and the gods' selective cultivation or suppression of promising individuals 76 77 78 79.
Historical Presentations
The Sky Screen can present scenes from the planets' past rather than limiting itself to current conditions. Its military comparison recalls Huaxia Star's struggle against an alliance of cosmic races, including Xingtian's infiltration toward the enemy leadership and Chi You's subsequent expedition against the invaders' home territory. Huaxia Star's viewers recognize the expedition as an event already preserved in their historical education 35 41 42.
Its later historical presentations expose the destruction of books, records, and scholarly traditions under divine authority, followed by the suppression and elimination of talented Soul Masters whom certain gods considered uncontrollable threats. The cultural footage includes past divine decrees that the gods cannot readily deny before the audiences of both worlds 68 79.
Rewards
| Comparison | Winner | Announced reward |
|---|---|---|
| Ordinary mortal lifespan | Huaxia Star | Everlasting Longevity, extending living beings' lifespans up to a maximum of ten thousand years, and access to the Universal Virtual World Exchange Forum 9 10 |
| Strongest support Martial Soul | Huaxia Star | Ten hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings for the Shennong Cauldron's wielder and the planet-wide Shen Nong Domain 15 |
| Strongest Martial Soul research | Huaxia Star | Martial Soul Evolution for its citizens and the planet-wide Natural Selection Domain 26 |
| Military strength | Huaxia Star | War Domain, also subsequently called the war halo; Soul Guidance Halo; and Dyson Sphere Fortress Construction Technology 43 44 45 |
| Dual Livelihood Comparison | Huaxia Star | God of Economy Title, enhanced physiques for all Huaxia citizens, and strengthened Economic-series Martial Souls 55 |
| Technology | Huaxia Star | Technological Eureka, an increase of one tier in technological level, and enhanced technological comprehension for all 64 |
| Culture | Huaxia Star | Wisdom Halo, Inherited Knowledge Memory, and one additional intelligence point for every citizen 73 74 |
The Shen Nong Domain's blessing subsequently strengthened Huaxia Star's life force and affected its inhabitants' Soul Power, bloodlines, and Martial Souls 16.
The support comparison's rewards also changed the Shennong Cauldron itself. Shen Nong discovered that his ten hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings enabled it to enter the second stage of Martial Soul Evolution. Chen Tian sensed both Huaxia Star's increased development potential and a corresponding transformation in his own strength 16 17.
The Natural Selection Domain selects the finest Martial Souls for inheritance, allowing stronger Martial Souls to be passed down while weaker ones are gradually eliminated. The accompanying Martial Soul Evolution reward affects ordinary citizens and Federal Councilors alike 26.
Dyson Sphere Fortress Construction Technology supplies the knowledge needed to gradually construct a stellar energy-harvesting and defensive system, subject to the civilization's industrial foundation. It is awarded as construction technology rather than as an already completed fortress. The Soul Guidance Halo subsequently helps Huaxia Star's Soul Engineers accelerate research and experimentation 44 45.
The God of Economy Title causes Huaxia Star's interstellar commercial network, trading nodes, resource channels, and commercial facilities to resonate within a developing economic order. The physical enhancement reward strengthens citizens' muscles and bones and reduces accumulated fatigue 56 57.
The technological rewards begin producing new approaches to research bottlenecks across Huaxia Star. The cultural blessings likewise improve scholars' and students' ability to understand difficult theories, recognize connections, and develop new approaches to problems 64 75.
Resistance to Interference
- The Asura God's thousand-meter slash passed through the Sky Screen without damaging it 1.
- Chen Tian found that his divine power could not affect it 1. Its origin remains unidentified in the provided chapters.
- Its presentations continue despite the Divine Realm's objections and disparagement; the gods' rebuttals do not halt its historical footage or verdicts 41 73.
Story Role
- Lifespan comparison: Its figures and footage challenge Douluo Star's assumptions about longevity and expose the effects of Soul Master violence and social exploitation. Its account of Huaxia Star's food supply, equality, and widespread Soul Master access draws both hope and disbelief 3 4 5 7 8 9.
- Support Martial Soul comparison: It identifies the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and the Shennong Cauldron as their planets' strongest support Martial Souls, then demonstrates Martial Soul evolution and the cauldron's effects on Soul Beasts 12 13 14 15.
- Martial Soul research comparison: It presents Yu Xiaogang's theories alongside Frightening Confucius's experiments, then reveals Chen Tian's Artificial Soul Ring Technology as the source of Confucius's plentiful rings 18 19 20 21 22 23. It continues with Teaching According to Aptitude, experiments transforming Martial Soul characteristics through Soul Ring and Soul Bone ratios, and Confucius's use of the Lunyu to develop seemingly ordinary Martial Souls. The resulting rewards grant Huaxia Star immediate Martial Soul Evolution and a domain supporting stronger inheritance across generations 23 24 25 26.
- Military-strength comparison: It first showcases the Divine Realm and the Sun Moon Empire, then reveals Huaxia Star's interstellar enemies and military history. Xingtian's battles, the Federation's colonial mobilization, Chi You's expedition, and automated production of mechs and Cosmic Warships overturn Douluo Star's assumptions about warfare. Huaxia Star wins and receives three military and technological rewards 27 29 33 35 41 43.
- Livelihood comparison: Its presentation of Douluo Star's poverty, disasters, exploitation, and fragile commerce encourages ordinary people, merchants, and low-ranking Soul Masters to question the established order and contact Huaxia Star through the virtual world. Ning Rongrong and several other Shrek members reject Tang San and Yu Xiaogang's defense of that order 47 48 49. Its account of Zhao Gongming's interplanetary economic network identifies the system as economic colonialism, while Bibi Dong begins coordinating resources and establishing public welfare and economic systems through Spirit Hall. Huaxia Star wins the comparison and receives economic and physical blessings 51 55.
- Technology comparison: Beginning while Spirit Hall confronts the Divine Realm Alliance, the comparison places Huaxia Star's technological achievements against Douluo Star's development model. The Sky Screen declares that Douluo Star's Soul Guidance Technology took the wrong path and exposes divine suppression intended to prevent ordinary people from becoming independent of Soul Masters. Huaxia Star's victory brings rewards that accelerate its technological revolution 59 62 63 64.
- Cultural comparison: It attributes Douluo Star's cultural impoverishment to Soul Master supremacy, elite suppression of learning, and the historical cultural plundering known as the Gods' Calamity. Footage of the gods destroying cultural inheritance damages the Divine Realm's legitimacy and draws more supporters to Spirit Hall 66 68. Huaxia Star's presentation includes Cang Jie's creation of writing, the Confucian Dao Cultivation Method, cultural exchange with alien races, and Soul Beasts participating in technological research. Huaxia Star wins and receives blessings for wisdom, knowledge inheritance, and intelligence 69 70 71 73 74.
- Talent comparison: Its announcement encourages further migration toward Spirit Hall and prompts the Divine Realm to discuss reforms in training, research, and relations with mortals 76. The presentation initially recognizes the many talents who built Douluo Star's Soul Master civilization, then reveals how a narrow pursuit of godhood encouraged rivalry and slaughter. It subsequently exposes certain gods' suppression and elimination of promising individuals who did not suit their wishes, provoking outrage and reinforcing Bibi Dong's criticism of Douluo Star's ruling system. The comparison remains ongoing in the latest provided chapters 77 78 79.
Influence on Viewers and Factions
- Spirit Hall: Bibi Dong treats the Sky Screen as an intelligence source on Huaxia Star and orders its revelations recorded. Its continued broadcasts help redirect Spirit Hall from conventional struggles for supremacy toward technological development, public welfare, and cooperation with Huaxia Star 9 43 51 58 64.
- Divine Realm: The gods also record the screen's revelations to identify Huaxia Star's military capabilities and hidden advantages. Later exposures of divine interference undermine their authority, while Huaxia Star's growing rewards pressure them to consider institutional and technological reforms 35 63 68 74 76.
- Yu Xiaogang: He repeatedly accuses the Sky Screen of fabrication or favoritism when its findings contradict his beliefs. During the military comparison, the omission of the assembled noble armies leads him to call it unfair and declare it his lifelong enemy 4 6 9 32.
- Ordinary people and weaker Soul Masters: Its comparisons demonstrate alternatives to inherited status and unchecked power, turning dissatisfaction into demands for change and interest in Huaxia Star's knowledge and opportunities 47 49 70 76.
- Soul Beasts: Its presentations of artificial Soul Rings, the Shennong Cauldron, and educated Soul Beasts working in research give Di Tian and the Ferocious Beasts reasons to seek cooperation with Huaxia Star rather than viewing human advancement solely as a threat 15 23 43 71 73.
