Qin Muchu

Biodata

Power Progression

Background and History

Qin Muchu was Ye Xin in his previous life on Blue Star. After dying of a heart attack, he was reborn in Nuoding City with memories of the Douluo story. He had grown up an orphan in his former life; in this one, his Soul Master parents were killed protecting him from the aftermath of a battle between two Soul Emperors. They left him their name and an inheritance that could support him if spent carefully. He hopes to find a way to revive them 1 40.

At his Martial Soul awakening, Su Yuntao detects no Soul Power in Qin’s damaged sword. The newly activated Pay-to-Win System changes that result to level-five Innate Soul Power and begins generating one Gold Soul Coin per second. Its shop supplies cultivation methods, Soul Rings and other resources, but its most powerful goods remain costly even with his growing income 2 3 4.

Qin enrolls at Nuoding Academy without a Martial Soul certificate by persuading the teachers to test him. Although he is not a work-study student, he requests Dorm Seven. He briefly becomes its boss by defeating Wang Sheng, then loses the position to Xiao Wu. The two train together, graduate early, and enroll at Shrek Academy after surpassing Nuoding’s teachers 4 5 19 23.

Personality

Qin is calculating about threats and opportunities. Fearing that Tang Hao might discover his secrets, he sends him a fabricated Spirit Hall warning that drives him and Tang San away from Holy Soul Village. He also gives misleading explanations for his unusual Soul Rings and wealth. Yet he is willing to reconsider his assumptions: after unfamiliar Soul Beasts and Puppets disrupt the future he expected, he recognizes that foreknowledge does not make him safe 3 26 33 62.

He is protective of Xiao Wu and generous with resources, teaching her cultivation methods and giving her tools that conceal her Soul Beast aura. He initially struggles with whether to tell her about danger to Da Ming and Er Ming, then decides she deserves a choice. In combat, he can be bold, but he values restraint and acknowledges that stronger or more experienced opponents still have much to teach him 8 11 15 23 30.

Abilities & Skills

Dancing Shadow Sword / Qingming

Qin’s first Tool Martial Soul begins as a battered sword. A mysterious young man identifies it as Qingming, restores its original form and raises it to divine grade through a Second Awakening 2 41 42.

• Ten Thousand Transformations, One Edge — Fires a crescent of sword energy that grows with Qin’s level. It can carry effects from his other Soul Skills, adding one possible effect for each additional ring 11 12.
• Boundless Reversal Barrier — Forms a sword-energy barrier around him. Against attacks below the divine level, it absorbs part of the incoming energy to reinforce its defense 11 31.
• Thousand Blades Dustless — Sweeps hundreds of golden sword arcs across a broad area 19.
• Steel-Cutting — Concentrates metallic force into a close-range stroke that ignores thirty percent of an opponent’s armor 19.
• Great Sword, Blunt Edge — Enlarges his sword for a powerful strike, without Steel-Cutting’s armor-piercing effect 19.
• Instant Hell Flash and Heavenly Punishment Thunder Abyss — Fifth-ring lightning skills: a rapid piercing charge and a sustained, twenty-meter-area lightning field 39.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm’s Soul Ring

Sky Dream becomes Qin’s Wisdom Soul Ring after Qin helps him reach one million years of cultivation. Sky Dream seals much of his power so Qin can bear it and release it gradually 17.

• Simulation — Creates disguises and large-scale illusions, though Qin initially cannot use it to change the apparent color of his Million-Year ring 17.
• Spiritual Storm — Combines Mental Power and Sword Qi across a ten-meter radius, letting Qin track movement and direct spiritually charged sword attacks 17.
• Combined use — Infusing Simulation into Ten Thousand Transformations, One Edge can momentarily trap an opponent in an illusion as they try to block a slash 17.

Guixu Other Shore Flower

Qin awakens the Guixu Other Shore Flower as his second Martial Soul with a Soul-Raising Pearl given by the mysterious young man. Its awakening is painful enough that Qingming releases a cooling force to help him endure it. The flower settles beside the sword in his Sea of Consciousness 41.

Cultivation and Soul Power Control

• Practices methods for Soul Power, spirit power and body tempering; methods he shares with Xiao Wu make her cultivation more than twenty percent faster 4 8.
• Later studies the Grand Void Visualization Method, Nine-Turn Profound Art and Divine Sky Spirit-Refining Art, improving his cultivation speed and strengthening his body and mind 12.
• Demonstrates fine Soul Power control by shaping moving, lifelike animals from released Soul Power 25.

Equipment, Weapons & Items

• Pay-to-Win System — Generates Gold Soul Coins and provides a shop, status panel and mystery-box rewards. Its income rises from one coin per second at activation to two after Qin becomes a Soul Master and five after his second ring 2 3 10 17.
• Disguise Soul Tool — A shape-changing ring Qin gives Xiao Wu; it hides her aura and alters the apparent colors of her Soul Rings 10 11.
• Parents’ Storage Soul Tool — An inherited item Qin uses to carry Sky Dream Ice Silkworm 14.
• House-Type Soul Tool — A palm-sized model that expands into a furnished two-story house; Qin uses one at Shrek and later gives similar houses to classmates 25 49.
• Soul-Raising Pearl — Merges with Qin’s soul and enables the Guixu Other Shore Flower’s awakening 41.
• Sea Princess’s tear — A pearl-like treasure containing Spiritual Origin that can restore Mental Power and heal mental damage 56 57.

Relationships

• Sky Dream Ice Silkworm — Becomes Qin’s Wisdom Soul Ring and lives in his Sea of Consciousness; Qin later agrees to help him seek a future for the Ice Empress 17 42.

• Zhao Wuji — Shrek teacher who tests Qin and Xiao Wu on admission and later recognizes their growth through sparring 23 37.
• Qian Renxue — Offers Qin and Xiao Wu places with Spirit Hall. Qin declines while leaving open the possibility of joining after graduation 35.
