* BombThrowingAnarchist: The Justice Council want to destroy all aristocracy, regardless if they're actually bad people or not. They don't even have issues harming children if they're royalty.



* FeedItABomb: When Kangjin's nephew tries to blow up the planet he's in to spite Siyun, Siyun simply shoves the bomb's core down his throat and kicks him all the way to the stratosphere, where he blows up.



* HateSink: It's as if every antagonist goes out of its way to be as much of an asshole as possible. Which makes Siyun killing them all the more satisfying.



* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: Immortal Godmother decides to aid Siyun against the Justice Council, even if it means deploying her weapons inside the Alkhaid Dynasty (with whom they have a non-offensive weapons agreement).



* TeethFlying: Getting slapped by a Shura usually sends teeth flying just to remind us how strong they are.



* UpperClassTwit: It seems most second gens, as in, children of Warlords and admirals, seem to be idiotic and arrogant to the point they think they can push around everyone because of it. Siyun loves to bring them down a notch or two.

* UnskilledButStrong: The Shura fought against humanity with nothing but their own bare hands and teeth and ferocity. They were so ludicrously strong that this was all they needed to put up a good fight against the combined military might of humanity. If their leader hadn't surrendered to avoid genocide, the Shura likely would have taken down all of humanity's armies with them. Siyun claims that things like technique are unnecessary for someone as strong and ferocious as Zhen Yuan.
