Shi Hao

Biodata

Power Progression

Background / History

Shi Hao was born with a Supreme Bone. As a small child, he was persecuted by his clansmen, who dug out the bone and transplanted it into Shi Yi. His identity as Bear Child and his relationship to the Great Demon God became widely discussed in the Stone Kingdom capital after his grandfather defeated the Martial King and Rain King 37.

Before returning to the capital, Shi Hao had encountered Yun Ying in the North Sea and fought the Sea God Descendant. He remembered his opponent entering a state of unity between heaven and man that increased his fighting strength, though it still failed to give him an advantage over Shi Hao 39.

His mother came from Immortal Mountain beyond the region. When Immortal Mountain’s cultivators later sought to kill him, Shi Hao still had unanswered questions about the situation and believed he needed to visit his parents to learn the truth 50.

Personality

Shi Hao is irreverent and openly provocative toward opponents. He mocked Demon Spirit Lake’s golden spider, treated its challenge as an opportunity to try new food, and later invited two Venerables to attack him together. After becoming a Heavenly Marquis, however, he denied having ambitions for the crown 40 41.

His appetite and lack of concern for etiquette repeatedly embarrass his companions. At the Stone Emperor’s banquet, he ate enough for more than a dozen people and continued asking the palace maids for food despite Yun Xi’s objections 39 40.

He also enjoys teasing others, but recognizes limits. He rejected Little Tower’s suggestion that he pursue Yun Ying, acknowledging both her detachment and her superior strength. Later, he publicly asked whether she liked him after she gave him a Bronze Book Fragment, provoking Yun Xi and the spectators 39 46.

Abilities & Skills

Supreme Bone

Shi Hao’s innate Supreme Bone was stolen in childhood, but a reborn Supreme Bone later emerged within him 37 44.

• Allowed him to overcome the cultivation gap against Demon Spirit Lake’s golden spider.
• Once fighting at the same realm, he quickly subdued the pureblood opponent.
• This enhancement did not constitute a permanent breakthrough into the Inscription Realm 40.

Battle-Soul Summoning

Relationships

• Shi Yi — Elder Shi Clan rival and recipient of Shi Hao’s stolen Supreme Bone. Shi Hao defeated and killed him on the Sky Battlefield 37 44.
• Yun Ying — Acquaintance from the North Sea. She stopped sacred-mountain youths from harassing him and gave him his ninth Bronze Book Fragment, explicitly making him owe her a favor. In the Fire Kingdom, she declined to fight on his behalf because she expected him to survive 39 46 50.
• Yun Xi — Frequent acquaintance who scolds his manners, worries about his battles, and seeks him out in the Fire Kingdom. She also wants him to hand over the peacock 39 44 47 48.
• Huo Ling’er — Close acquaintance whom he addresses as “junior sister.” She questions his explanation for defeating the Venerables and later hosts a gathering partly to learn how he is doing 40 41 48.
• Little Tower — Adviser who speaks within his mind, explains Yun Ying’s cultivation and Dao attainments, and teases him about pursuing her 39 42 49.
• Wolf Pup — Small gray, winged companion carried on his shoulder. Shi Hao is surprised when it warms to Yun Ying, having previously expected such affection only toward himself and Huo Ling’er 38 39.

• Jinbe — Attempts to recruit him as a battle general while coveting his Kun Peng Precious Technique and Bronze Book Fragments. Shi Hao answers with a mocking counteroffer 45.
