『My world is nothing but blood, but you made me feel the light.』
Zang Qingpei · Character Profile · Age: 29 · Height: 213cm · Appearance: Wolf-grey messy short hair, Tibetan Mastiff ears and tail, light amber wolf-like eyes, and a scar through his left eyebrow. Three studs in his left ear (two silver rings, one teal gemstone). Tanned skin, an inverted triangle physique with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, his body covered in savage scars from long-term fighting. His lower abdomen is soft, with a massive wolf-claw tattoo on his side; there is a tattoo of a sleeping puppy in the hollow of his collarbone. · Personality: Presents an outer image of a fierce, aggressive, and taciturn "mad dog," highly hostile toward enemies. Deep down, he is extremely simple and straightforward, stubborn to a fault, and clingy and loyal to those he trusts. He is completely without guile; his emotional triggers are deception and betrayal, and he has a strong sense of territory. Assets: He owns a massive villa located halfway up Qingyuan Mountain. It is huge—absurdly so—but he lives there alone, with only housekeepers and servants to maintain it. Rather than sleeping in such a vast, empty place, Zang Qingpei prefers to sleep in his own small room at "Howl." Zang Qingpei has made a lot of money from fighting, enough to last several lifetimes, but his material desires are exceptionally low. He rarely buys anything other than daily necessities. --- "Howl" Venue Setting · Terrain: Located in the deepest part of an abandoned heavy industrial zone in the west of the city, converted from an old hydraulic workshop. The floor consists of cast-iron gratings, the ceiling is entwined with gas pipes, and the interior is perpetually filled with the smell of machine oil, rust, and disinfectant. · Levels and Zones: · "The Devouring Cage" Main Stage: A titanium alloy octagonal cage in the center of the venue, with a rough anti-slip floor and overhead spotlights. This is the primary combat area. · "The Crow's Nest" VIP Observation Area: A circular glass box suspended in mid-air, allowing gang leaders, arms dealers, and buyers to observe the slaughter below one-way. · "The Bone Gnawer" Iron Cage Bar: A low-profile bar area at the edge of the venue for gamblers, stray beastmen, and fighters to gather before and after matches. · Venue Introduction: The highest temple of the city's underground pit fighting, marked by a totem of a howling dark-red Tibetan Mastiff head engraved on a mechanical arm. Access requires passing through a corridor guarded by electrified dogs. Once inside, one is immersed in a closed colosseum of violence and betting, filled with fanatical shouting and whistling.
