Background

Chu Yun awakened as an SSS-Class Spirit Master, a talent considered unprecedented. Before awakening, he lacked confidence and acted submissively toward Shen Qin; afterward, his status made him intensely self-assured and convinced that Divine Weapon Maidens would naturally be drawn to him 102 148.

In the original course of events, Lin Wei's Ultra SSS-Class potential was meant to become one of Chu Yun's major advantages. Bai Zhou instead contracted Lin Wei first, preventing Chu Yun from obtaining her and decisively altering his expected path 7.

Chu Yun was hospitalized after being defeated by Bai Zhou. His recovery depended on help arranged through Zhao Gang and the City Defense Force, while access to him was restricted from the Bai Family 20 63 66.

Personality

Chu Yun is proud, impulsive, and highly conscious of his SSS-Class Talent. He repeatedly treats his Talent as proof that he is destined for greatness, often dismissing lower-ranked Spirit Masters, Divine Weapon Maidens, or warnings that challenge his self-image 103 151 185.

His confidence frequently becomes self-delusion. He misreads rejection as concealed interest, assumes promised rewards are guaranteed, and interprets setbacks as betrayals or conspiracies by Bai Zhou 148 154 249.

Despite this recklessness, Chu Yun can show courage and protective instincts. During Dragon Ascend's final freshman battle, he placed himself between Bai Zhou and the “Lone Sword Saint,” offering to handle the stronger opponent himself 320. He is also capable of insight when suspicious circumstances arise, such as questioning Bai Zhou's assumed identity before the City Defense Force 338.

Abilities & Skills

SSS-Class Spirit Master Talent

Chu Yun possesses an SSS-Class Talent, which gives him exceptional potential and draws intense attention from academy recruiters.

• His Talent Level was formally confirmed at the recruitment assessment 102.
• His potential is repeatedly treated as a strategic asset by Zhao Gang and the City Defense Force 66 102.
• His actual performance is limited by his experience, equipment, mental state, and compatibility with his Divine Weapon Maidens 103 210.

Reaper Scythe Possession

Through Mo Xuan, Chu Yun can enter Spirit Weapon Possession and wield the Scythe of Death.

• The transformation is nearly instantaneous after their contract 199.
• He uses the possession state's attribute enhancement to increase his movement speed 247.
• Maintaining the state consumes significant energy over time 247.
• His combat movements later become notably steadier and more fluid than during his earlier defeat by Bai Zhou 321.

Curse and Erosion

Mo Xuan's Reaper Scythe releases black mist with a lethal corrosive or curse-like effect.

• A puppet struck during testing corroded and crumbled 199.
• A bird caught in the black mist died instantly and became black bones 199.
• The curse is dangerous enough that a Dragon Ascend school leader intervened to dispel it during a match 319.
• Dragon Ascend prohibited Chu Yun from using the skill in combat without a teacher present 319.

Death Tornado

An active Reaper Scythe skill used during Dragon Ascend's one-on-one battles.

• Chu Yun deployed it in the arena, forcing a school leader to intervene and save his opponent 319.
• Its curse effect prompted the academy's restrictions on his future battles 319.

Scythe Dragon Tornado

A spinning black-energy tornado technique.

• Chu Yun used it while fleeing Royal Family forces toward Dragon Ascend Academy 404.
• The cursed energy deterred pursuing enemies and created an opening for escape 404.

Equipment

• Huang Qi's Spirit Master Equipment — A set of high-level equipment obtained through a trap arranged by Bai Zhou. Chu Yun uses its activated skills to strengthen himself, but its origin makes him a target of the Royal Family 249 251 264 402.
• Scythe of Death / Reaper Scythe — Mo Xuan's Divine Weapon form; B-rank quality with hidden attributes 199 246.
• Soul Severing Spear — An A-rank Divine Weapon Maiden associated with Chu Yun during the recruitment assessment 100 103.

Relationships

• Lin Wei — Childhood friend and Chu Yun's former intended contract partner. She instead forms a Life-and-Death Contract with Bai Zhou, which Chu Yun refuses to accept as genuine 3 7 103.
• Shen Qin — Former girlfriend and former Divine Weapon Maiden. She seeks to dissolve her contract with Chu Yun and later becomes contracted to Bai Zhou 20 103.
• Zhao Gang — Friend, supporter, and City Defense Force commander. He arranges Chu Yun's recovery, recruits Divine Weapon Maidens for him, and attempts to secure his future against the Four Great Families 66 93 185.
• Mo Xuan — Former Companion Contract Divine Weapon Maiden. Her Reaper Scythe grants Chu Yun powerful curse abilities, but their partnership is volatile and marked by frequent arguments; she later contracts with Bai Zhou 199 210 409.
• Old Grandpa — A soul residing in Chu Yun's mind who advises him on contracts and opportunities. Bai Zhou partially extracts the soul with a Soul Sealing Stone, leaving it in hibernation 105 187 249.
• Huang Ningxue — Royal Family eldest miss who pursues Chu Yun over Huang Qi's disappearance and the equipment Chu Yun carries 270 402.
• Mu Qianqian — Chu Yun unsuccessfully attempts to court her at the Cloud Sea Hotel; she is focused instead on locating Bai Zhou 148 154.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Awakening and Loss of Lin Wei

Following his SSS-Class awakening, Chu Yun expects Divine Weapon Maidens to flock to him. His expected partnership with Lin Wei fails when she contracts with Bai Zhou instead, beginning his sustained rivalry with the Bai Family's eldest young master 3 7.

Hospitalization and Recruitment Fair

After Bai Zhou defeats him, Chu Yun is hospitalized and later recovers with Zhao Gang's support. At the recruitment fair, his SSS-Class Talent briefly gives him the recognition he craves, but Bai Zhou's results and influence repeatedly overshadow him 39 66 102 117.

Failed Contracts and Academy Recruitment

Chu Yun loses Shen Qin and later allows an A-rank Divine Weapon Maiden to leave rather than compromise his pride. Recruiters compete for his enrollment, but Bai Zhou intercepts the S-Class equipment Azure River Academy had intended to offer him 138 149 154 167.

Contract with Mo Xuan

Zhao Gang finds Chu Yun Mo Xuan, a B-rank Divine Weapon Maiden with exceptional practical combat power. Their Companion Contract raises Chu Yun to Level 3 and gives him access to the Reaper Scythe's curse abilities, though their relationship remains strained 185 199 210.

Royal Family Frame-Up

Bai Zhou engineers circumstances that make Chu Yun appear connected to Huang Qi's disappearance and equipment. Chu Yun is pursued by Royal Family forces, escapes an ambush using Huang Qi's equipment, and becomes further entangled in the accusation 252 270 279 402.

Dragon Ascend Academy

At Dragon Ascend, Chu Yun's curse skill causes a major incident during the freshman battles, leading to restrictions on its use. He nonetheless displays growing combat ability and reaches the final freshman free-for-all alongside Bai Zhou and the “Lone Sword Saint” 319 320 321.

Trivia

• Chu Yun's repeated mental distress is tracked by Bai Zhou's system as “Destined Villain Value” gains 40 93 103.
• He believes he is a skilled “love guru” despite Mu Qianqian directly rejecting his advances 148.
• Bai Zhou has impersonated Chu Yun to create enemies and further damage Chu Yun's reputation 166 167.
• Chu Yun is unusually susceptible to acting as his own scapegoat: after being framed, he carried a corpse and the murder weapon back to the City Defense Force himself 279.
