The Celestial Chessboard and the Art of Formation

On the Yuanqi Continent, martial strength reigns supreme, and yuanqi awakens the soul. Among all paths, chess is revered above all. Set a deadly trap, and one who comes will be slain; two who come will both be slain. One can face a crowd alone, earning everyone's admiration and favor. All take pride in their chess, becoming heroes whose deeds are celebrated and whose names endure through the ages.

The youth Yichuan commands the world's chessboard. With spirit beasts and yuan beasts as companions, and prodigies following in his wake, he protects the world.
