Dou Realms

This is a ranking according to how strong the person is. In this land whoever has strength, has dignity. Without strength you are nothing. As you train your Dou Qi level you gain status and rank, within each Dou Qi rank there are sub ranks indicated as stars, when you reach nine stars you have the potential to rank up. e.g. - a ninth star Dou Zhi Qi will rank up to Dou Zhe with his next Dou Qi increase. The gap between each star will increase as each one pass each rank and the rate of increase would also increase.

Stages:

Low: 1 - 3 Stars

Middle: 4 - 6 Stars

High: 7 - 9 Stars

1) Dou Disciple (Dou Zhi Qi)

Dou Zhi Qi was essential to being a Dou Zhe. Dou Zhi Qi is split into 10 different stages, and when the body acquires 10 stages of Dou Zhi Qi, it can better condense the Dou Zhi vortex, becoming a well-respected Dou Zhe! The 8th to the 9th Duan Qi is the beginning of Dou Qi bottleneck stage.

2) Dou Practitioner (Dou Zhe)

Dou Zhe and Dou Zhi Qi had different natures. The energy assimilated before becoming a Dou Zhe was actually called Dou Qi, after becoming a Dou Zhe, the assimilated energy was now known as true Dou Qi!

Though there was but a one word difference between their names, the true difference was more like comparing heaven to earth: completely incomparable.

After making the breakthrough to become a Dou Zhe, one would possess the qualifications to practice a Qi Method. After practicing a Technique, the attributeless milky white Dou Qi within the body would change into the same attribute as the practiced Technique.

3) Dou Master (Dou Shi)

Manipulating the Dou Qi into an energy cloak that was attached to the body was the mark of a Dou Shi. This energy cloak not only strengthened the owner's defence, speed and attack, it also improved the owner's absorption of energy from his or her surroundings so that the energy exhausted during a fight would be supplemented. Hence, almost every Dou Shi's first action during a battle would be to call upon this Dou Qi cloak.

4) Dou Grandmaster (Da Dou Shi)

On the Dou Qi continent, most people, upon reaching Da Dou Shi, would be able to emit Dou Qi out of their body. For example, they could use their Dou Qi to cover their weapons and greatly increase their offensive strength.

Materializing Dou Qi could only be achieved by those who had attained at least the Da Dou Shi level.

Anyone that became a Da Dou Shi was at least a power to be reckoned with. With that kind of strength, most places would probably rush for recruitment.

5) Dou Spirit (Dou Ling)

Dou Qi agglomerating into objects, the mark of a Dou Ling. It was a specialized ability of a strong person at the Dou Ling class or above, just like the Dou Qi cloak of a Dou Shi, and the Dou Qi Armor of a Da Dou Shi. The lethality of this kind of Dou Qi agglomerated item would undoubtedly have an extremely powerful effect when used in combination with Dou Techniques.

6) Dou King (Dou Wang)

Dou Qi transformation into wings was basically an extremely symbolical result in the training of Dou Qi. This symbol represented a natural barrier in becoming a strong person on the continent. Everyone clearly knew that as long as one was able to transform Dou Qi into wings, it represented that one would be able to enter into the class that caused countless number of people to halt their progress: Dou Wang! The simple two words were the symbol which countless numbers of talented individuals had trained hard to achieve. However, the hardship that these two words represented caused most of the people to halt their progress before reaching that stage. Finally, these people would quietly withdraw.

7) Dou Emperor (Dou Huang)

When one reached the Dou Huang class, one could already use the Dou Qi in one's body to resonate with natural energy during battle. After that, one could control these energies and unleash an incomparably terrifying force. This was also the reason why only Dou Huang possessed a destructive force that horrified people.

The training of a dou practitioner started off with training the body first. After the body was trained until it reached the pinnacle, the Dou Qi in one's body would be able to resonate with the natural energy of the same affinity and finally achieve the aim of controlling it.

8) Dou Ancestor (Dou Zong)

The true point when one could be considered a genuine expert on the continent. Only by successfully reaching this level would one gain the prerequisite that allowed one to survive in the Central Plains. Walking through the air was a unique indicator of an elite Dou Zong.

9) Dou Venerate (Dou Zun)

Dou Zun. That was a level that was even further and more frightening than a Dou Zong. At that level, one was already a top person on the continent. Their methods were far from what an elite Dou Zong could compare with.

They were actually able to use space, something which was ethereal and invisible, to do whatever they pleased.

After advancing to a Dou Zun, one is able to continuously absorb the natural energy and turn it into Dou Qi in his/her body. They can also train while traveling.

The gap between each star within the Dou Zun class was far from what an ordinary person could imagine. It was a kind of extremely fixed hierarchical system. It was quite difficult for someone in the Dou Zun class to challenge another of a higher level.

10) Half-Saint (Ban Sheng)

Ban Sheng. This level was called an abyss of despair by many experts at the peak of the Dou Zun class. Most of the experts in this world who had reached the peak of the Dou Zun class ended up halting at the edge of this Ban Sheng class. Regardless of how they trained, they were unable to truly stepped into this so called Ban Sheng class.

Only by stepping into the Ban Sheng class would one be able to possess the qualification to step into the Dou Sheng class!

One could even say that Ban Sheng was the most important foundation stone before one stepped into the Dou Sheng class. If one was unable to enter the Ban Sheng level, one could forget about ever becoming a genuine elite Dou Sheng!

While Dou Di was gradually becoming a legend that existed only in history, the simple 'Sheng' word represented the peak of this entire world.

Stages:

Initial Level Ban Sheng

Intermediate Level Ban Sheng

High Level Ban Sheng

11) Dou Saint (Dou Sheng)

Any experts who reach the Dou Sheng class are basically standing on the peak of the Dou Qi continent. At this level, one would have already surpassed the ordinary and would have stepped into the holy level. The strength that one would possess would naturally be far from what an ordinary person can imagine. Opening a realm where people could live is an indicator of an elite Dou Sheng.

The reason an elite Dou Sheng was so powerful was not because of the great strength of their Dou Qi. Instead, it was because they could maneuver the natural energy without restraint to attack and defend.

12) Dou God (Dou Di)

Dou Di, this was a form to address the ruler of this world. The value of anything even the least bit related to this name would soar!

This point was something that could be identified from just watching the Gu clan. The blood of a Dou Di flowed in the bodies of the members of the Gu clan. This resulted in the current position of the Gu clan on the Dou Qi continent. Although no one dared call it unique, it could definitely be considered among the peak!

Qi Method is like a foundation for you as a Dou Zhe. It is like your internal energy skill. You can only possess 1 Dou Qi Method at a time and you at least have to be a Dou Zhe. If you want a new Dou Qi Method then you will have to abandon your current Dou Qi Method. Then you will have to train the new method from the beginning. This is why it is very important which Dou Qi Method you choose.

A Dou Qi Method gives your Dou Qi an Attribute, or element. Without a Dou Qi Method, a person's Dou Qi would be described as white, or colorless. Learning a Dou Qi Method gives color to a person's Dou Qi. For example, low Huang level fire attribute Dou Qi Methods make Dou Qi a pale yellow color. The higher the rank of the method, the deeper the color.

Classes:

Huang (Yellow): This is the first rank skill class and within each skill there is a further subclass as low/mid/high.

Xuan (Black)

Di (Earth)

Tian (Heaven)

Dou Qi skill ranking is separated into 4 classes. The higher the level, the stronger the skill. Once you have reached Dou Practitioner, you are able to learn skills and abilities. Reading scrolls is the most common way to gain a new skill; however, there are other ways to obtain abilities. You can even develop new and unique abilities through rigorous training. Though uncommon, these are abilities that have never been seen before and are unique to you.
