Background / History

Lin Xia spent eighteen years in the gamified world as an impoverished orphan. During his awakening ceremony, Zhang Peng stole credit for the B-rank card Lin Xia had awakened, while their teacher supported the theft and treated Lin Xia’s poverty as proof that he was unworthy of the card. 1

The injustice triggered the binding of Lin Xia’s system, which granted him the unique SSR Saiyan Bloodline Awakening Card. After awakening with perfectly balanced 82-point attributes, he challenged Zhang Peng and killed him in their duel, completing his first system mission. Guild leaders intervened when Zhang Ting arrived with Silver-realm enforcers to avenge her brother, allowing Lin Xia to escape immediate retaliation. 1 2

After gaining admission to Imperial University, Lin Xia pursued both ranked advancement and Secret Realm exploration. He became the first freshman to reach Bronze rank, later survived a tampered Secret Realm, and secretly rose to Level 7 after defeating its Lion King. 14 24 27

Appearance

Lin Xia is described as a cold, handsome young man. At the time of his first ranked matches, he still had notably thin arms despite having awakened a Saiyan constitution. 5 18

• Wore a Poverty Student identification card during his awakening ceremony. 1
• Appeared in a green tracksuit for the Imperial University challenge tournament. 44
• Gains a temporary tail only while using the Great Ape Transformation Card. 43

Personality

Lin Xia is ambitious and intensely competitive. Rather than choosing a less demanding university where he would stand out easily, he deliberately enters Imperial University to test whether he can become “the head of a phoenix.” 3

He is calculating in combat, frequently assessing opponents’ weaknesses, conserving his strongest moves, and using summons to create openings. He is also willing to kill enemies whom he judges will retaliate if spared, as shown by his decisions against Zhang Peng and Meng Bo. 2 22

Despite his ruthlessness, Lin Xia can show restraint. During the class-sorting battle, he declined to exploit Zhu Tingyu’s stamina weakness with unlimited Energy Bullets, choosing a fairer close-quarters fight instead. He is also playful and flirtatious around Zhu Tingyu, often making her flustered rather than taking serious conversations seriously. 12 39

Abilities & Skills

Saiyan Bloodline

Lin Xia’s exclusive SSR awakening grants unusually balanced baseline attributes and several innate Saiyan-related capabilities.

• Began at OVR 82 with 82 points in physical damage, energy damage, physical defense, energy defense, and speed. 1
• Possesses an innate ability to sense Qi, allowing him to detect Wu Ziyang’s presence even after he entered an independent spatial plane. 11
• His balanced attributes let him contest specialists such as strength-type Awakeners without possessing an obvious statistical weakness. 19

Energy Bullet

A ranged energy attack unlocked after Lin Xia completed his novice mission.

• Fires rapid energy projectiles that deal energy damage. 3
• Does not appear to consume stamina, allowing Lin Xia to use sustained fire to pressure opponents. 3 12
• Used to defeat ranked opponents, eliminate Wu Ziyang during class sorting, and kill Meng Bo. 6 11 22

Dance in the Sky Technique

A flight technique whose speed increases with Lin Xia’s own strength.

• Lets Lin Xia fly without relying on a prop card, an ability normally associated with Silver-realm Awakeners. 3
• Allowed him to evade Zhu Tingyu’s Absolute Zero and fight aerially. 7
• Used to gain safe observation positions while Thin Buu fights in Secret Realms. 40

Neo Tri-Beam

An SSR skill acquired by dismantling Tien Shinhan’s A-rank card.

• Requires Lin Xia to form a specific hand frame and charge for ten seconds before firing. 23
• Has immense destructive power but inflicts severe stamina drain and bodily strain. 23 24
• Defeated the Lion King and also caught Vegeta in its blast when Vegeta restrained the boss. 24
• Later one-shot the Flame Snake Leader after Thin Buu held it in place. 41

Eye of Insight

A system-granted reinforcement ability.

• Reveals the next successful node on a Reinforcement Pillar. 16
• Refreshes once every 24 hours and can store up to 30 uses. 16
• Enabled Lin Xia to reinforce Majin Buu safely from +1 to +2 despite a long streak of public reinforcement failures. 28

Great Ape Transformation

An SSR Transformation Card obtained from a Level 7 Bronze Secret Realm.

• Transforms Lin Xia into a giant Great Ape. 43 49
• Grants Raging Kong, which absorbs incoming damage, doubles it, and automatically returns it to the attacker. 43
• Raging Kong can activate only 20 times per transformation. 43
• Lin Xia retains his sanity in this form, using Qin Tianyu’s stomp to flip the Skeletal Nightmare Beast and then taunting it to rise. 50

Majin Buu / Thin Buu

Lin Xia’s first SSR character card is a control-and-tank summon. Its original Fat Buu form evolved into the crueler Thin Buu after reinforcement.

• Chocolateification turns a struck target into immobile chocolate for three seconds; weaker targets can be consumed for an instant kill and health restoration. 4
• Chocolate produced from weak targets can also be consumed by Lin Xia to restore his own health. 5
• Buu possesses high durability and can self-destruct, then later reassemble; its self-destruction eliminated the entire class-sorting arena and the Ghost-Light Lion Pride. 13 22
• Thin Buu inherited Fat Buu’s abilities, gained higher attributes, and displays an openly vicious personality. 28 40
• Thin Buu has extreme vitality and can regenerate and control its shed flesh in combat. 47 48

Vegeta

Vegeta is an SSR character card obtained after Lin Xia reached 100% favorability with the Saiyan Prince.

• Has base attributes comparable to a Level 5 combatant despite being summoned at 1-Strength. 23
• Cannot harm Lin Xia due to the card’s master restriction. 23
• Is proud, defiant, and prone to underestimating enemies, but can be forced into cooperation when his survival depends on it. 23 24
• Fights alongside Thin Buu during the challenge tournament against Qin Tianyu’s summons. 47 48
