Background / History

Xiao Wu enters Notting Academy as a work-study student and accepts Huo Feng's challenge for control of Seventh Dorm. Her exceptional speed, kicking strength, and Soft Technique initially place Huo Feng in a dangerous position, though he ultimately wins after his Sacrifice System weakens her for three seconds. She accepts the loss gracefully and acknowledges his strength 8.

Her true nature as a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form creates a major cultivation constraint: unlike ordinary Soul Masters, she cannot openly hunt Soul Beasts for Soul Rings. When nearing Rank 40, she searches for a chance to disappear from the group so the appearance of a new Soul Ring will seem natural 106.

At Soto Fighting Arena, Xiao Wu’s first Soul Duel is against Tang San. She overwhelms him through superior speed and close-combat ability, earning a one-win, zero-loss record, public support, and numerous fans 34 35.

Appearance

Xiao Wu has a youthful, girl-next-door appearance, large eyes, and shallow dimples that emerge when she smiles. Her most recognizable feature is her floor-length black Scorpion Braid 8 135.

• Long, straight legs and a notably slender waist 135
• Delicate skin with a faint rosy tone 135
• Often wears a small white top with pink trousers during Soul Duels 34
• Her Scorpion Braid can be loosened and wielded freely in combat, with her hair flowing past her feet 320 321

Personality

Xiao Wu is competitive, direct, and readily provoked when others insult her or her companions. She is prepared to retaliate immediately against mocking upperclassmen, though Huo Feng sometimes restrains her from escalating a confrontation 10.

In battle, she is confident and decisive. She does not retreat when facing stronger opponents, adapts quickly when her original approach fails, and uses daring maneuvers under pressure 127 267 295. Outside combat, she can be mischievous and impulsively affectionate, most notably when she publicly throws herself into Huo Feng’s arms after Shrek’s victory over the Berserk Team 101.
