Background / History

Ling Family and Shrek Academy

Ling Luochen came from an ordinary family and was its first ice-element Soul Master in several centuries. Her selection among Shrek’s new generation of Seven Devils made her the family’s hope for advancement. She had previously served on Shrek’s tournament reserve team and was confident that she would eventually become a Titled Douluo 6 7.

At Shrek, her ice attribute was repeatedly used to suppress Ma Xiaotao’s evil fire. These sessions consumed her soul power and cultivation time, allowing Ma Xiaotao to advance while Ling Luochen fell behind. She resented both Ma Xiaotao’s demands and Dean Yan Shaozhe’s favoritism, trusting senior students Zhang Lexuan and Han Ruoruo more than the academy’s teachers 6 17.

Far North Soul Hunt

Approaching Soul King, Ling Luochen refused to join an academy hunt alongside Ma Xiaotao. Instead, she traveled to Dragon City with the family elders Ling Da and Ling Er. Zhang Lexuan arranged for Yu Tianjun to guide them through the Adventurers’ Association 6 7.

Yu Tianjun initially recommended a Frost-veined Fire-Quelling Python because its abilities matched her request for a fifth ring suited to suppressing fire-attribute opponents. The group instead encountered a thirteen-thousand-year Frost Abyss Cold Wyrm whose ice attribute approached Ultimate Ice. Ling Da and Ling Er chose to risk their lives to obtain its ring for her 7 8.

The hunt nearly ended in disaster when the wyrm reactivated its bloodline ability and suppressed the Ling family’s ice powers. Yu Tianjun intervened, rescued Ling Luochen, and subdued the beast. Ling Er nevertheless died after burning his soul power during the battle. Ling Luochen thanked Yu Tianjun rather than blaming him for being unable to save her uncle, and the two became sworn siblings 9.

Life at the Heavenly Dragon Sect

After reaching Soul King, Ling Luochen received the wyrm’s matching soul bone from Yu Tianjun. She chose to cultivate near the Far North rather than remain at Shrek, and Yu Tianjun and Yu Yuanjue welcomed her into the Heavenly Dragon Sect’s household 10.

She proposed a guiding partnership in which Yu Tianjun would plan routes and she would escort clients, with earnings divided seventy percent to him and thirty percent to her. After learning the area, she was added to his bounty-hunter listing as a joint executor. She also returned to Shrek to accept ten Inspection Corps missions, intending to complete her obligations while spending the remaining time in Dragon City 10 14 15 17.

Her refusal to remain available to Ma Xiaotao provoked a confrontation at Shrek. Han Ruoruo defended her, while Yan Shaozhe privately admitted that he had wanted Ma Xiaotao to teach Ling Luochen a lesson for growing close to the Heavenly Dragon Sect 17.

Break with Shrek and Move to Mingdu

After learning of Yan Shaozhe’s attack on Yu Tianjun and his companions, Ling Luochen refused an offer to sever their relationship for her own safety. She destroyed her inspector’s mask and cloak, renounced her place among the Shrek Seven Devils, and agreed to leave for the Sun Moon Empire 27.

Long Xiaoyao escorted her and Yu Tianjun to Mingdu, where they met Ye Guyi and purchased a house together. Yu Tianjun negotiated for Ling Luochen to receive flexible studies, top-quality ice cultivation resources, and a tournament place outside the academy’s main team. She subsequently passed the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy’s political screening 28 30 34.

On a later visit to Shrek City to say farewell, she entrusted her withdrawal application to Han Ruoruo. Unable to confront Shrek’s senior figures directly, she intended to oppose their students in the tournament. Han Ruoruo agreed to accompany her west 45.

Mingdu Ambush and Soul Spirit Contract

While showing Han Ruoruo around Mingdu, Ling Luochen introduced her to civilian soul tools and visited local attractions with her. Xishui Alliance workers recognized Han Ruoruo and reported their presence. The Zhongli brothers later ambushed the two women, blocked their communications, and overwhelmed them. Ling Luochen lost consciousness before Yu Tianjun and Ye Guyi arrived to rescue them 50 52 53.

She later reaffirmed that she would not return to Shrek, joining Han Ruoruo and Zhang Lexuan in inviting Wu Ming to remain in Mingdu as well 55.

Yu Tianjun eventually arranged her Soul Spirit contract with a royal Ice Jade Scorpion. The bond raised her from level sixty to sixty-two and transformed her aptitude: previously well behind Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng, she surpassed Dai Yueheng and began closing the gap with Ma Xiaotao 74.

Before the tournament, she helped the academy’s second reserve team defeat its starting lineup. She then departed Mingdu with Yu Tianjun, Ye Guyi, and the Sun Moon Team for Star Luo City 76 78.

Appearance

• Hair and eyes: Black hair and ice-blue eyes 45.
• Build: Slender, fair arms and a mature, curving figure 7 27.
• Clothing: Wears a long skirt on her arrival in Dragon City and neatly tailored robes while cultivating at the Heavenly Dragon Sect 7 27.
• Expression: Often appears cool and composed, including during the Sun Moon Academy’s political screening 34.

Personality

Ling Luochen describes herself as reserved and has few close friends at Shrek. Her usual aloofness contrasts with her warmth toward people she trusts: she becomes openly affectionate, anxious, and tearful around Yu Tianjun, particularly when she believes he has endangered himself 10 14 17.

She is proud of her talent without automatically dismissing outsiders. When her elders mistake the Heavenly Dragon Sect’s courtesy for submission to Shrek’s prestige, she corrects them and recognizes the strength of its younger disciples 7.

Her gratitude is accompanied by a strong sense of fairness. Even after Ling Er’s death, she acknowledges that Yu Tianjun had only been hired as a guide and that his intervention was a kindness, not an obligation. Her loyalty later outweighs institutional allegiance: she refuses to abandon him despite the danger of opposing Shrek 9 27.
