Background / History

Shen Xingyue was already one of Pengcheng No. 3 High School’s foremost students before Xu Ziming’s rise. Her Life Energy Level reached 4.2, and she placed twenty-third on the Suzhe Province high-school ranking. Her Battle Net comprehensive combat power index was recorded at 139. 11 15 17

She is a member of the Pengcheng Shen Family and cultivates its World Tree Dharma Body. Her father, Shen Fuguo, possesses the same inheritance; the family reputation surrounding the technique is significant enough for judges at the Jinling competition to recognize its aura immediately. 80 88 89

At home, Shen Xingyue trains despite her mother urging her to abandon the Martial Way and marry into a good family instead. Her resolve comes partly from a desire to leave her sheltered life and eventually reach the front lines herself. 46 47

Appearance

Shen Xingyue is usually presented as stern and combat-ready, favoring practical clothing over decoration. At the underground boxing venue, she wears a tight black bodysuit with her hair tied into a sharp ponytail; she is also associated with a faint orange scent in her hair. 30 42

• Uses a kitten mask while entering Pengcheng’s underground black-boxing arena. 43
• Fights with a pair of short blades, which she can throw and retrieve. 45
• The mark of her World Tree Dharma Body appears on her forehead when activated. 89 94

Personality

Shen Xingyue is outwardly cold, proud, and terse. She has a reputation for a bad temper after nearly chopping off the hand of a student who attempted to touch her during a sparring match. 12

Beneath that reserved demeanor, she is intensely driven by battle and unfamiliar experiences. She is visibly excited by the prospect of visiting a bar for the first time and regards dangerous combat as a rare source of freedom and enjoyment. 42 46

She respects diligence above status. Shen Xingyue sees Xu Ziming as someone who works silently as hard as she does, and Xu Ziming’s recognition of the effort behind her Dharma Body affects her deeply. 47 89

Abilities & Skills

World Tree Dharma Body

Shen Xingyue’s primary inheritance, activated after her first Life Evolution. It grants immense life force, physical enhancement, recovery, defensive power, and destructive capabilities. 89 93 98

• Rapidly heals her shoulder injury during her fight with Han Fang. 93
• Suppresses Lin Ling’s Ascension state through overwhelming pressure. 89
• Can melt Han Fang’s concealed spearhead with the manifested World Tree mark. 94
• Contains both life and destruction; she channels its destructive aspect to damage Li Xiang’s mech. 98
• Its use consumes substantial vitality and blood, and her Dharma Body is shattered after clashing with Yang Ping’s Black Tiger Rips Out the Heart. 107

Dual-Blade Combat

Shen Xingyue fights with twin short blades, combining speed, precision, and mobile offense.

• Throws a blade with enough precision to knock Tang Xing out of a Demon Vine’s attack path. 45
• Uses her blades to rapidly slice through Demon Vine tendrils. 46
• Can join both hilts into a double-ended spear longer than her body. 46
• Uses a thrown blade to intercept Li Xiang’s missile. 99
• Her blade technique is a relative weakness: she admits through combat that she devoted more effort to cultivating the World Tree Dharma Body than to practicing her weapons. 93

Speed and Force Control

Her movement speed exceeds Xu Ziming’s during the underground boxing battle, while her control allows her to conserve stamina against stronger opponents. 45 74

• Uses minimal force to redirect greater strength and reduce energy expenditure against the tiger man in the secret realm. 74
• Moves quickly enough to exploit openings against Li Xiang’s mech after its movements are slowed by her Blade Momentum. 98
• Her raw power after activating the Dharma Body allows her to overpower opponents whose weapon skill or speed initially surpasses hers. 93 94

Blade Momentum

Shen Xingyue develops Blade Momentum in her fight against Li Xiang.

• The pressure from her momentum impairs Li Xiang, though his mech filters half of its effect. 98
• Creates the opening that lets her sever the mech’s left arm. 98

Story Role / Major Arcs

Sprint Class and Underground Boxing

After Xu Ziming defeats Zhao Yong, Shen Xingyue chooses to sit beside him in the newly established Sprint Class. She, Xu Ziming, and Tang Xing are assigned by Ma Mingyu to a dangerous underground boxing mission. 30

Secret Realm Assessment

Shen Xingyue reunites with Xu Ziming and Tang Xing in the secret realm, using a thrown blade to eliminate fusion beasts and protect the group. 67

In the later confrontation with the tiger man, she relies on controlled, efficient strikes to preserve stamina and hold the enemy in place for her allies. 74

In the semifinal against Yang Ping, she refuses to allow a surrender, withstands his Qiongqi Bloodline tiger form, and defeats him using her Dharma Body and the law of Yang despite suffering serious injuries. 106 107
