Ling Tong, named Ryoutou Kouseki in the anime, emerges as a warrior forged by loss and mentorship. His father, Ling Cao (Kouketsu Ryousou), perishes while serving their faction, igniting Ling Tong’s vengeful drive. Guided by a one-eyed mentor, he transitions from grief to disciplined combat, absorbing principles of leadership and warfare. His early arc brims with visceral rage. Consumed by vengeance, he hunts his father’s killer, unleashing raw fury in clashes marked by anguished roars. Over time, alliances and mentorship temper his anger, redirecting his fervor toward factional duties. He trains younger warriors, strategizes in pivotal battles, and bonds with figures like Rikuson Hakugen, the protagonist, anchoring him to collective struggles over personal vendettas. Though his ultimate fate remains undefined, his trajectory arcs from solitary vengeance to loyal factional service. Physical depictions consistently present him as an adult male with black shoulder-length hair and piercing blue eyes. Beyond the main series, no spin-offs, movies, or OVAs expand his portrayal.
