Qiu Sheng

Qiu Sheng is the main antagonist during Xie Yan's mission to Ba Quan. He was infamous as the first Fallen Fighter in history.

Plot
A hundred years ago, Qiu Sheng became a fanatic of the Evil God. He inherited some of the deity's malevolent power, and secretly became the first Fallen Fighter. Shortly after becoming an S Class Fighter, Qiu Sheng organized the first Global Fighting Summit and fought an infamous death match with the strongest Fighter in history, Zhu Ji. Qiu Sheng was no match for Zhu Ji, so he fouled and fatally struck the S+ Class Fighter with his evil power. Qiu Sheng was swiftly killed by Zhu Ji, who succumbed to his injuries and died moments later.

The Fallen Fighter did not die completely, for in his final breaths, he vowed to return one day and surpass Zhu Ji. Over the next hundred years, Qiu Sheng secretly existed as a wicked spirit, cultivating his strength by spreading the seeds of the Evil God to create Fallen Fighters. While the Fallen Fighters terrorized the world, Qiu Sheng's followers formed the Golden Age business group and conducted the Global Fighting Summit every decade. Secretly, the Summits were phases of a ritual to resurrect him. The Shenwu Association, an organisation dedicated to fighting Fallen Fighters, had predicted that the villain would finally resurrect after the conclusion of the 11th Global Fighting Summit, and killing him at that moment will permanently end the threat of the Fallen Fighters.

Shortly after Xie Yan wins the Summit, Qiu Sheng returns from the dead and announces his plan to offer this world to his master, the Evil God. The ominous presence of the Evil God looms over the arena. The Shenwu Association and Chi Lian use the Power Of Gaia to teleport themselves and the Fallen Fighter to an isolated space, where they fight to the death- but Qiu Sheng turns out to be stronger than predicted. He kills Yan Bahuang and Meng Zhang, and has Chi Lian at his mercy. At that moment, Xie Yan arrives to replace Chi Lian and confronts Qiu Sheng. Having inherited the invincible prowess of Zhu Ji, Xie Yan fights a titanic battle with Qiu Sheng. As the battle rages, he notices a legion of demons cheering Qiu Sheng and deploys his Xie Daoyun spirit to slaughter them. This hampers the regenerative ability of the Fallen Fighter, but even then, the battle is extremely difficult. At last, after expending every ounce of his might, Xie Yan thoroughly kills Qiu Sheng. Unfortunately, this does not stop the Evil God's descent to the world, and Xie Yan fails his mission. In the aftermath, the whole planet is reduced to a barren wasteland, devoid of any life; and Xie Yan returns to the Main World.

Trivia

 * His full name roughly translates to "conqueror of enemies".
 * Post-resurrection Qiu Sheng is so far, the toughest minor world antagonist of the story. His cultivated strength had to be split into a ratio of 2:3:5, and even with 30% of his strength, he could defeat three S Class Fighters (equivalent to three Innate Realm 1st Layer experts). Even after Xie Yan obtained Zhu Ji's Everlasting Dominating Fist, it was extremely difficult for him to defeat Qiu Sheng who only had 50% of his strength.
