Chat Group

Biodata

Power Progression

Origin and Nature

Link first examines the Chat Group System ten years after transmigrating to the Douluo Continent. It initially contains no members, but his first sign-in awards the Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill. A notification then identifies Xiao Wu as a potential recruit and directs him toward her with a golden arrow 1.

The system’s origin, full rules, and possible consciousness remain unexplained. Liu Erlong’s unsolicited return as a Visitor leads Link to suspect that it may possess some awareness of its own. Even much later, he admits that he does not fully understand its operation and has no instruction manual to consult 27 32 82.

Functions

Member Detection and Recruitment

• Candidate selection: The system identifies eligible recruits rather than allowing Link to invite anyone he chooses. When Xiao Wu asks to invite Tang San, Link says that the Chat Group selects its own members 1 2.
• Detection and guidance: Notifications and directional guidance help Link locate candidates, including people inside buildings or carriages 5 10.
• Entry Contract: Joining requires a drop of the recruit’s blood on a parchment contract. After Xiao Wu signs, the contract dissolves into light and the interface appears before her 2.
• Face-to-face prerequisite: Link must first find and meet a candidate in person. His Great Dream Heart Sutra subsequently allows him to complete recruitment within dreams 4 6.
• Dream recruitment: Blood placed on the contract inside Qian Renxue’s dream successfully admits her. Link later uses similar methods to recruit other members 6 10 18.
• Unclear eligibility: Xiao Wu’s mother cannot join despite being resurrected. Neither Xiao Wu nor Link understands what makes someone eligible or “bound by fate” 71.

Daily Sign-In

• Frequency: Members can sign in once each day; Link, Xiao Wu, and Qian Renxue perform a new sign-in at midnight 7 90.
• Reward range: Rewards include cultivation methods, soul power increases, adaptive soul rings, selectable soul skills, soul bones, immortal herbs, evolution packages, and exceptional treasures 7 13 16 18 71.
• Use requirements vary: Some rewards require training, while others produce immediate transformations when used. Link must practice the Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill himself, whereas Xiao Wu’s first gift pack directly upgrades her soul rings 1 2.
• Unequal rewards: Members do not receive rewards of equal strength. Link explicitly denies controlling their allocation when Xiao Wu complains about the stronger packages received by others 90.
• Reward visibility: Link can see other members’ sign-in notifications, although he initially does not know whether they can see every notification that he sees 7.

Talent Sharing and Cultivation Sharing

Recruiting members grants Link their talent and cultivation benefits, with some recruits also producing martial soul or domain rewards 2 10 11 15.

• Physical enhancement: Xiao Wu’s recruitment adds her exceptional physical capabilities to Link’s own, improving his foundation for absorbing soul rings 2.
• Continued growth: While members remain in the group, their increasing strength also benefits Link 15 27 66.
• Theoretical maximum strength: Link eventually realizes that sharing accounts for members’ theoretical maximum strength, including Xiao Wu and Ah Yin’s power as Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts 59.
• Realm restrictions: Shared power does not initially bypass every cultivation bottleneck. Link reaches level ten after recruiting Xiao Wu but still needs a soul ring to advance 2.
• Retention after expulsion: Link keeps talent, cultivation, and other recruitment rewards already obtained from an expelled member. He no longer shares that member’s subsequent gains 15 36.

Cultivation Sharing and Acceleration

• Shared cultivation methods: Members can upload methods for others to practice. Link confirms that the uploaded Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill is free for group members to cultivate 27.
• Upload rewards: Link receives 100 points for the first upload; Bibi Dong receives 80 points for the second upload, the Spirit Hall Meditation Method 27.
• Sign-In Points: Points can also appear randomly alongside sign-in rewards and can be exchanged for the Cultivation Acceleration Function 27.
• Practical limits: Access to a method does not guarantee rapid mastery. Qian Renxue, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling initially progress slowly with the Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill 27.

Communication, Privacy, and Livestreaming

• Remote group chat: Members exchange messages while separated across the continent, using the group for advice, arguments, challenges, and requests for assistance 27 37 57 76.
• Nicknames: Display names conceal identities from later arrivals, but newcomers initially enter under their real names. Existing members can therefore see a new arrival’s identity before a nickname change 6 7 27.
• Private messages: Private chat is unavailable when Link first attempts to contact Xiao Wu separately 6.
• Livestreaming: The system proposes a group vote to enable a livestream when members follow Link’s confrontation with Tang Hao 37.
• Aura masking: The system can conceal Xiao Wu’s transformed soul beast identity even from a Peerless Douluo. It does not undo knowledge held by someone who already knows her identity 48.

Management, Departure, and Visitor Access

• Leader permissions: Link can mute members, appoint administrators, and remove members once management permissions unlock 14.
• Membership rules: Link forbids disclosure of members’ real identities and announces cultivation assessments with removal as a penalty for insufficient effort 7 14.
• Memory erasure: Expulsion erases memories concerning the Chat Group. After their later removal, Liu Erlong and Tang Yuehua also discover missing material in their diaries 14 82.
• Loss of benefits: Departure or expulsion is described as reclaiming the departing member’s group-derived rewards. Tang Yuehua loses the cultivation opportunity the group gave her; Qian Renxue expects her evolved martial soul, enhanced rings, and soul power gains to revert when she leaves 75 83 84.
• Voluntary departure: Qian Renxue leaves on her own, producing a red departure notification rather than an expulsion notice 84.
• Visitor status: Expelled members can sometimes return to the chat as Visitors. Liu Erlong and Tang Yuehua both do so, but Visitor access is distinct from restored full membership 27 40 66 67.
• Readmission: The system asks Link to confirm invitations restoring Liu Erlong and Tang Yuehua as full members 66 67.

Notable Sign-In Rewards

Major Events

Early Recruitment and Discipline

Xiao Wu’s successful recruitment establishes the system’s two central incentives: sign-in rewards for members and shared cultivation benefits for Link. Qian Renxue’s subsequent recruitment introduces nickname-based privacy, although the real-name entry notices leave that protection incomplete 2 6 7.

Liu Erlong becomes the first expelled member after management permissions unlock. Her memory loss establishes the consequences of removal, while her later return as a Visitor reveals that Link does not control every aspect of membership 14 27.

Betrayal, Livestreaming, and Readmission

Tang Yuehua is expelled after helping Tang Hao ambush Link. During the ensuing confrontation, the system offers livestreaming so distant members can follow the battle 36 37.

Link later readmits Liu Erlong, whose evolution into the Azure Dragon also strengthens him. Tang Yuehua regains full membership shortly afterward, but becomes quieter and concentrates on cultivation 66 67 74.

Renewed Expulsions and Voluntary Departure

Link expels Tang Yuehua and Liu Erlong again after their comments about Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue. The decision alarms his companions, who fear losing the group’s rewards; Xiao Wu specifically worries that the loss could undo her mother’s resurrection 81 82 83.

Qian Renxue subsequently leaves voluntarily, intending to erase painful knowledge about her family even at the cost of her enhanced martial soul and other benefits 84.

Zi JI’s Recruitment and Reward-Based Requests

Zi JI’s recruitment extends membership to an untransformed soul beast and gives her access to bloodline evolution 87 89.

Link also encourages members to use rewards as payment for assistance. Following his advice, Ah Yin offers one or more sign-in rewards to anyone willing to kill Tang Xiao, drawing volunteers from the group. This is a member-posted request rather than a separately demonstrated automated mission function 89.
