Power Progression

Background / History

Xiao Qing targets A'Man for his defense and striking power, intending to pair him with the faster Xiao Feng.

During the battle with the injured Titan Giant Ape Er Ming, A'Man guards against stray attacks. After Er Ming collapses, he carries the stunned Zhao Wuji away on Xiao Qing's order 51.
