Background / History

Admission to Eastsea Academy

Gu Yue arrives after enrollment has closed and asks to be tested rather than turned away. Wu Changkong arranges a duel against Xie Xie, giving him twenty minutes to recover from physical training. She defeats him through terrain manipulation, chained elemental attacks, a blinding flash, and spatial displacement 63 64 65.

After presenting a recommendation letter from her elementary academy, she explains her Elemental Envoy martial soul. Wu Changkong admits her to First Grade Class Five and secures approval from Academic Affairs Director Long Hengxu 65 66 67.

Class Advancement Tournament

Gu Yue joins Tang Wulin and Xie Xie in nightly combat training. When her arrival threatens Tang Wulin’s tournament position, she says she will not replace him simply because she transferred into the class. Wu Changkong ultimately selects all three, assigning her responsibility for variation and control 68 70.

Their victories include an improvised aerial attack against Class Three’s flying triplets, with Gu Yue blocking two brothers from assisting the third. Outside the tournament, the trio intervenes against Guang Long’s extortion of Uncle Li. Guang Long’s brother, Guang Biao, later confronts the academy with armed men, but Wu Changkong defeats him and protects the students 78 79 82 83 84 86 87.

Before the final first-grade match, Gu Yue and Xie Xie search for the missing Tang Wulin. He returns in time to compete. During the battle, she supports him closely and unleashes Ice and Snow Storm after her teammates are endangered, exhausting her soul power. Class Five wins and is promoted to First Grade Class One; Gu Yue is subsequently shown training in Class Zero 100 101 102 105 107 109 113.

Spirit Ascension Platform

During Class Zero’s first Platform trial, Gu Yue uses elemental tracking to reunite with Tang Wulin while fleeing a Thousand-Year Crystal Bear. She helps the trio defeat it, then catches Tang Wulin after the bear’s death-triggered crystallization immobilizes him. Taking the impact prevents him from shattering but leaves her unconscious; Xie Xie activates her emergency device 129 130 134.

For the Riot Platform exam, she contributes tracking marks, wind assistance, and battlefield control. After reaching two rings, she defeats the rank-35 ice-staff wielder later identified as Xu Xiaoyu, using spatial evasion and a prepared elemental barrage. She then accelerates the entire team’s retreat from an approaching pack of Flame Demon Lions 138 146 147 156.

Following Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi’s school transfers, Gu Yue remains in Class Zero with Tang Wulin and Xie Xie. Their next final exam is still designed for five students 156.

Appearance

Gu Yue has black hair, black eyes, and clean, fresh-looking features. Her slender build and unhurried movements give her a distinctive air of calm 63 83.

• Bright eyes: Tang Wulin notices their brightness when they first exchange glances 64.
• Initial clothing: A white top and white trousers rather than an academy uniform 63.
• Academy clothing: Changes into Eastsea Academy’s uniform after admission 67.
• Composure under exertion: Remains neat despite flushed cheeks and perspiration after conditioning runs 67.

Personality

Gu Yue is composed, self-assured, and quietly proud. Her confidence can appear detached: before her admission duel, she gives Xie Xie little attention, prompting Wu Changkong to warn her against underestimating opponents. She believes understanding and controlling a martial soul matter more than its apparent strength alone 64 66 137.

Her sharp tongue is most evident around Xie Xie, whose boasts and provocations regularly draw devastatingly calm replies. Their antagonism softens into familiar banter; after learning about his mother’s death, she awkwardly apologizes for teasing him 66 75 76.

She is noticeably warmer toward Tang Wulin, sharing food, respecting his secrets, and placing his safety above tournament results. Her protectiveness also creates a tactical weakness: Wu Changkong criticizes her for concentrating support on him rather than connecting the whole team 67 100 106 112.

Despite her emphasis on mastery, she initially doubts the value of basic combat technique for an elemental fighter. Wu Changkong’s controlled demonstration shows her that elemental attacks have structural weak points. She also expresses a strong liking for the Spirit Ascension Platform’s realistic forest and soul beasts 113 134.

Abilities & Skills

Elemental Envoy

Gu Yue’s martial soul allows flexible elemental manipulation rather than a fixed attack associated with each soul ring 65 139.

• Declared elements: Wind, fire, earth, ice, light, and space 65.
• Additional demonstrated control: Her later barrage includes water droplets and water flows 147.
• Terrain manipulation: Softens ground beneath an opponent, then freezes it to immobilize them 65.
• Ranged attacks: Uses fireballs, wind blades, ice spikes, rocks, and blinding light 64 65 147.
• Support: Reinforces Tang Wulin with earth, adjusts his momentum with wind, and uses light-attributed soul power to ease the sinister chill inside him 102 105.
• Limit: Her soul rings do not individually strengthen particular elements. Early single-element attacks lack the power to overwhelm sturdier opponents 65 68.

First Soul Skill: Elemental Tide

Elemental Tide extends her elemental control and stabilizes transitions between elements 65.

• Supports rapid switching and combination without assigning the skill to one particular element 65.
• Strengthens her attraction and mobilization of elemental energy 147.

Elemental Combination

Gu Yue combines elements into techniques more powerful than their separate components 69 105 147.

• Earth and ice: Converts softened ground into a frozen restraint 65.
• Ice and Snow Storm: Combines wind blades and shattered ice into a large-area assault. Using it against Class One leaves her pale, unsteady, and depleted 105 107.
• Ice-Wind Tornado: Wind accelerates ice spikes while the ice sharpens the storm’s destructive effect 147.
• Delayed barrage: Suspends multiple attacks overhead, draws out Xu Xiaoyu’s draining Ice Fury, then releases the prepared assault during his recovery 147.
• Second skill uncertainty: Tang Wulin infers that her unnamed second soul skill improves simultaneous control, delayed release, and combination. This remains his interpretation rather than Gu Yue’s explanation 147.

Spatial Teleportation

Gu Yue uses the space element for instantaneous repositioning 65 127.

• Demonstrates short transfers of two to three meters 65 75.
• Evades the Crystal Bear’s attacks and appears behind Xu Xiaoyu 127 146.
• Escapes the lock of Xu Xiaoyu’s thousand-year Ice Fury skill 147.
• Already possesses teleportation while she has only one ring; it is not introduced by her second-ring breakthrough 65 127.

Elemental Marks and Wind Mobility

Gu Yue places faint elemental marks on companions to sense their approximate locations within a limited range 134 138.

• Uses tracking to find Tang Wulin during the Crystal Bear pursuit 134.
• Marks all four teammates before the Riot Platform expedition 138.
• Lightens teammates’ footsteps, clears undergrowth quietly with wind blades, and accelerates group retreats 138 140 147.
• Supports Xie Xie’s improvised launch toward flying opponents 82.

Physical Ability

Her strength tests surprise classmates who expect an elemental specialist to be physically weaker 115.

Right-hand punching force	143 kilograms 115

Equipment / Items

• Thousand-Refined Cloud Titanium Vest — Custom protective vest forged by Tang Wulin. Its lightweight, cloud-patterned plates disperse impact 138.
• Emergency Signal Device — Used to leave the Spirit Ascension Platform; Xie Xie activates hers when she loses consciousness after saving Tang Wulin 130.
• Elementary Academy Recommendation Letter — Presented to Wu Changkong as part of her late admission 65.

Relationships

• Tang Wulin — Close friend and team captain. She respects his boundaries, tracks his position, and risks serious injury to save him. Their combat coordination can work through observation rather than spoken plans 106 130 134 152.
• Xie Xie — Teammate and frequent verbal sparring partner. She defeats him in her admission test, later apologizes after learning about his grief, and earns his joking submission as “big sister” after defeating Xu Xiaoyu 65 76 147.
• Wu Changkong — Homeroom teacher and combat mentor. He secures her enrollment, develops her elemental combinations, and challenges her weaknesses in fundamentals and team support 66 69 112 113.
• Zhang Yangzi — Class Zero teammate. He joins Xie Xie in calling her “big sister” after witnessing her victory over the three-ring ice-staff wielder 147.
• Wang Jinxi — Class Zero teammate. Responds to her two-ring combat ability with admiration and apprehension 147.
• Xu Xiaoyu — Opponent in the Riot Spirit Ascension Platform. She defeats him after he demands the team’s spiritual energy; he later remains resentful of the encounter 146 147 156.

Notable Quotes

“The Martial Soul itself is important, of course. But often, what truly opens up the gap isn't just what your Martial Soul is. It's whether you really understand it, and whether you can control it properly.” 66

“All right. I won't ask.”
— Accepting Tang Wulin’s refusal to explain his right-hand power 106

“But I suggest you make sure you learn to control that power. It looks very strong, but the stronger a power is, the more dangerous it becomes when it goes out of control.” 106

Trivia

• Her soul spirit’s identity remains unknown to her teammates even when she reveals her second ring 146.
