Background / History
Tang Ya and Bei Bei encounter Huo Yuhao in the Star Dou Great Forest. When he wakes after absorbing a soul ring, she worries about his condition and questions how his mental-attribute martial soul could accept a Wind Baboon ring 2.
Interested in the vitality contained in Huo Yuhao’s Life Crystals, Tang Ya first offers him Tang Sect discipleship and a Shrek Academy enrollment quota in exchange. He declines the discipleship and asks instead for cultivation funds and guaranteed enrollment; she accepts. Tang Ya acknowledges that using sect membership as a bargaining chip was a mistake 3. After consuming a Life Crystal, she finds that her soul power circulates thirty percent faster. She hopes the improvement will help her compete for Shrek’s inner-court resources and eventually revitalize the declining Tang Sect 4.
The group later obtains her third soul ring in the Star Dou Great Forest. Tang Ya then helps guide Huo Yuhao to Shrek, recommends the Soul Tool Department for his Spirit Eye martial soul, and accompanies him as he enrolls through the Tang Sect’s recommendation quota 9.
Appearance
Tang Ya is described as a young woman with a delicate face 2.
Personality
Tang Ya is attentive to Huo Yuhao’s safety, worrying when he does not wake promptly and cautioning him not to wander far from their forest camp 2 7. She is also intensely driven to improve her cultivation: she eagerly seeks Life Crystals, but recognizes when that eagerness leads her to make an unfair offer 3 4. After Huo Yuhao helps her, she promises to protect him if he encounters trouble at Shrek 6.
