Xiao Wu

Biodata

Power Progression

Background / History

Xiao Wu is a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast who took human form and left the Star Dou Great Forest. Because transformed soul beasts need contact with humans to improve, she entered human society despite the danger of having her identity exposed. She possesses extensive knowledge of soul beasts and does not need to hunt soul beasts for rings; her former cultivation automatically condenses into spirit rings as her strength returns. 14 27 167

She first notices Li Han while he purchases rabbit fur and soul-beast blood essence. Offended by his use of rabbit fur, she nevertheless becomes intrigued by the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo leaf he trades for a tuft of her fur. After consuming it, she finds that it suppresses her soul-beast aura, strengthens her physique with lightning power, and may help conceal her true form from high-level experts. She decides to follow Li Han to judge his character and obtain more leaves. 9 10

Xiao Wu follows Li Han to Nuoding Academy and enrolls as a first-year work-study student. She challenges Wang Sheng upon arriving at Dorm Seven, defeats him, and succeeds him as the dormitory's boss. 11 13

Her daily consumption of Heavenly Thunder Bamboo leaves becomes central to her cultivation. The leaves accelerate her soul-power growth, improve her lightning resistance, and cause a benign mutation in her Soft Bone Charm Rabbit martial soul, producing progressively more thunder patterns. After Li Han's martial soul advances, the Golden Thunder Bamboo leaves continue to support her rapid growth. 12 25 34 36 143 146

During the Star Dou Great Forest expedition, the Titan Giant Ape senses her aura and arrives unexpectedly. Xiao Wu reprimands him after his shockwave incapacitates both her and Li Han, then later reunites with him and the Sky Azure Bull Python. The two soul beasts initially warn her that revealing her true identity to Li Han would be dangerous in human society. 31 34 35

After Li Han leaves Nuoding Academy, Xiao Wu continues cultivating for several years while worrying about him after recognizing the wanted man Li Feiyu as Li Han. Her determination to see him again contributes to her accelerated cultivation. They reunite after four years, though she is initially hurt by his prolonged absence. 53 74 142 143

Li Han's Clear Insight Spirit Eyes can see through illusions, barriers, and disguises, allowing him to perceive Xiao Wu's transformed soul-beast form. Her identity is later openly confirmed when Tang Hao attempts to seize her as a future hundred-thousand-year soul ring for Tang San. 69 158

Later, Xiao Wu joins Heaven Dou Academy alongside Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, becoming part of the combined Heaven Dou Team under Qin Ming and helping defeat the original veterans in a training match. 191 204 206

Appearance

Xiao Wu is initially a petite girl, though she grows quickly and expects that she may eventually surpass Li Han in height. 11 28

• She wears a pink dress and a rabbit-ear headband when first introduced. 9 13
• Her eyes turn crimson red when she activates her martial soul. 14
• Her martial soul is the Soft Bone Charm Rabbit. 25
• The rabbit martial soul develops white thunder patterns after prolonged consumption of Heavenly Thunder Bamboo leaves. 25 34 36
• She has a long scorpion braid that can be used to bind and throw opponents during combat. 151

Personality

Xiao Wu is curious, energetic, and direct. When she first meets Li Han, she rapidly questions him about Nuoding Academy, his age, and his cultivation. She finds library work dull and refuses to study books about soul beasts because she already knows more than they contain. 11 14

She is proud of her strength and enjoys proving herself in combat, challenging Li Han to a spar after revealing her level and spirit ring. Although she loses, she immediately asks about the movement technique he used and recognizes his superior combat ability. 14 15

She is protective and loyal toward those she considers her own. She chooses to remain at Nuoding Academy rather than seek better resources elsewhere because she wants to look after Dorm Seven, and because following Li Han is more important to her than ordinary cultivation resources. 27

Xiao Wu is deeply attached to Li Han. Although his four-year disappearance leaves her angry and distressed, she continues to worry for her safety and trains harder in part because of him. 74 142 143

Her loyalty becomes selfless when Tang Hao threatens Li Han. Rather than allow Tang Hao to use her as leverage, Xiao Wu threatens to take her own life to secure Li Han's release. 158 159

She is also a dependable companion in battle, readily placing herself between Zhu Zhuqing and danger, and working seamlessly with her in team combat against both wild soul beasts and rival academy teams. 168 205
