Background / History
Xiao Wu first appears at Nuoding Academy's Dorm Seven, where she declares herself the dormitory boss. After initially trying to claim Tang Yin and Tang Sanmei's bedding, she accepts Tang Sanmei as her little sister and Tang Yin as her brother, beginning their sibling-like bond 10.
Yu Xiaogang recommends that she develop her Rabbit Martial Soul along a control-oriented path, though Xiao Wu shows little interest in his instruction and falls asleep during his lecture 14.
She later studies at Blue Tyrant Academy and becomes close enough to Tang Yin that he publicly identifies himself as her sworn brother when Tai Long harasses her at Shrek Academy 82. When Tang Yin learns that she is a transformed soul beast, he urges her to leave the human world rather than risk exposure in Martial Soul City 92. Xiao Wu departs Blue Tyrant Academy under the pretext of returning home to absorb a spirit ring, then travels with Tang Yin to the Star Dou Great Forest 93.
In the forest, Daming confirms that Xiao Wu is a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit. Her aura makes her a target for human soul masters, especially once she is identified as a transformed soul beast 133. Tang Sanmei gives essence blood to conceal Xiao Wu's primal beast aura for one year, allowing her to pass as an unusually gifted human Soul Emperor 134.
When Xiao Wu approaches level 70, she returns to the Lake of Life for the final stage of transformation into a human. Martial Soul Hall's assault interrupts the process; Daming and Erming defend her, ultimately sacrificing themselves to ensure her transformation succeeds 163 169 172.
Appearance
After years apart from Tang Yin, Xiao Wu is described as a mature and elegant young woman, though she retains her lively demeanor 133.
- Often wears her hair in a scorpion braid 92.
- Has a human guise that conceals her true Soft Bone Rabbit nature.
- Her soul beast aura can be fully hidden for one year through Tang Sanmei's essence blood 134.
Personality
Xiao Wu is lively, carefree, playful, and assertive. She initially relies on a “boss” mentality in Dorm Seven, but is capable of embarrassment and warmth when confronted with Tang Yin and Tang Sanmei's kindness 10.
Despite her carefree exterior, she takes threats to her friends seriously. She leaves Blue Tyrant Academy to keep her identity from endangering those around her, and accepts leaving the Star Dou Great Forest when Daming judges it necessary for her safety 93 134. She is deeply attached to Tang Yin and Tang Sanmei, and is devastated by Daming and Erming's deaths protecting her 95 172.
