Appearance

Lei Xiang is a young academy disciple with high, arched brows. He initially wears an openly impatient and arrogant expression. 17

• His Mad Shadow Wolf martial soul manifests as a half-human-tall wolf with bristling mane and exposed fangs. 18
• When using Berserk World, his body grows taller, his muscles swell, and his wolf claws become sharper. 19

Personality

Lei Xiang is proud, hot-tempered, and highly sensitive to perceived humiliation. As an orphan raised from the slums by Lang Taihui, he resents nobles and assumes Zhu Zhuqing—whom he knows to be a Zhu Family descendant—relies on privileged lineage rather than earned strength. 18

His defeat by Zhuqing severely damages his confidence. He becomes fearful around her, loses focus during the Star Dou Great Forest mission, and reacts to her rescue with resentment rather than gratitude. 20 26 28 Despite this, when the team confronts the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent, he follows Zhuqing's orders and withstands the creature's frontal attack. 29

Abilities & Skills

Mad Shadow Wolf Martial Soul

An agility-attack martial soul associated with speed and wolf-claw attacks. Lei Xiang nevertheless favors direct, forceful combat, a tendency Gu Chensha considers a misuse of its inherent speed advantage. 18 19

• Two yellow soul rings. 18
• Listed as an agility-attack type, though Zhuqing observes that his skills and combat approach resemble an assault-type path. 27 29
• His overreliance on raw power leaves openings against more disciplined opponents. 19

Violent Wind and Rain

Lei Xiang's first soul skill, a rapid claw-combination attack. 19 29

• Produces dense claw shadows capable of gouging the arena floor. 19
• Used against Zhuqing during their duel but fails to touch her due to Hell Stab. 19
• Later used to wound the exposed belly of the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent. 29

Berserk World

Lei Xiang's second soul skill, which boosts his physical attributes for ten breaths. 19 29

• Enlarges his body and increases strength and claw sharpness. 19
• Reduces his speed and makes his footwork clumsy, undermining his agility-attack specialization. 19
• Lets him endure a frontal strike from the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent, though he is injured in the process. 29

Relationships

• Lang Taihui — His teacher and a Cardinal of Martial Soul Hall. Lang uses Lei Xiang's challenge to test Zhuqing, but later privately regards him as a failure after his loss breaks his composure. 18 28 30
• Zhu Zhuqing — Fellow disciple and rival. He challenges her out of contempt for her noble background, loses decisively, later attempts to ambush her, and resents her after she saves him from an Iron-back Centipede. He ultimately cooperates under her leadership during the serpent hunt. 18 20 24 27 29
• Li Moyue — Junior fellow disciple. She repeatedly tries to calm or assist him, protects him during the mission, and pulls him away when the 1,900-year Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent appears. 18 28 30

Story Role / Major Arcs

Challenge at Martial Soul Academy

Lei Xiang publicly challenges Zhu Zhuqing after she refuses to address Lang Taihui as “Teacher.” He frames her as an arrogant noblewoman unworthy of Lang's tutelage, while Lang secretly permits the confrontation to assess her abilities. 18

In the duel, Lei Xiang holds a three-level soul power advantage and initially offers Zhuqing three free moves. His attacks fail to land; after activating Berserk World, he sacrifices his speed for power and exposes openings. Zhuqing disrupts his soul-power circulation with Hell Hundred Claws, collapsing his martial soul and defeating him in less than a breath. 19 20

Training-Ground Incident

After Zhuqing completes an exhausting weighted run and collapses, Lei Xiang intends to attack her from behind. Gu Chensha takes control of Zhuqing's body; a single dark-gold, slit-pupil glare terrifies Lei Xiang into fleeing in humiliation. 23 24

Three-Star Mission

Lei Xiang joins Zhuqing and Li Moyue on Lang Taihui's three-star mission to hunt a Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent in the Star Dou Great Forest. Still distracted by his earlier defeat, he fails to react when an Iron-back Centipede attacks and is saved by Zhuqing. 26 28

His resentment erupts after the rescue, but he later reveals his abilities when Zhuqing demands the team coordinate. During the battle against the 1,100-year Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent, he uses Berserk World to absorb its charge and Violent Wind and Rain to strike its vulnerable belly, contributing to the team's victory. 28 29

When a stronger 1,900-year Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent arrives, Lei Xiang freezes in fear. Li Moyue drags him away as the group splits up to escape. 30
