Background / History
Li Xing was a young man from Earth who transmigrated into the Dragon Ball world and arrived at Mount Paozu. Presented with three choices by the Super Choice System, he chose to steal the Four-Star Dragon Ball rather than aid Bulma or Sun Wukong. Although his theft attempt went awry, completing the mission granted him the Devour Ability, which became the basis of his growth. 1 2
Initially weak, Li Xing used dangerous terrain, physical training, and combat against dinosaurs to improve his body. He chose to protect Xiao Wu and Ashu from a dinosaur, then brought them toward Pilaf Castle while treating them as potential subordinates and training resources. 6 7 9 10
After battling Yamcha and repeatedly clashing with the Ox-King, Li Xing accumulated enough power to subdue the Pilaf Gang. He persuaded Pilaf to become his researcher and established his first faction. 12 15 16
Li Xing founded Aurora Group, assigning Pilaf, Xiao Wu, and Ashu major responsibilities. He used its wealth and scientific capability to develop technology, cultivate fighters, and establish the secret organization Polar Night. 18 19
He later seized the Dragon Balls from Bulma’s group, wished for a “smart brain,” and became capable of advanced scientific research. Aurora Group subsequently expanded into South City, surpassed Hoi-Poi Capsule Corporation in revenue and technology, and began producing equipment such as Nano Heavy Armor and gravity-training devices. 21 23 24 38 39
Li Xing created the Aurora Martial Arts Peak Tournament as both a global martial arts project and a means to gather strong opponents. He ultimately used Android attacks and public panic to drive a worldwide cultivation craze, while continuing to manipulate events from behind the scenes. 27 28 40 43 50
Personality
Li Xing is calculating, ambitious, and highly pragmatic. He consistently evaluates people, organizations, and conflicts by their usefulness to his own growth. He regards combat, technology, wealth, and even social unrest as resources that can be directed toward becoming stronger. 18 20 28 43
He is also cautious despite his ruthlessness. Li Xing avoids killing Sun Wukong because he views powerful Saiyans as valuable future sparring partners, and he withdraws rather than take risks he considers unnecessary. 19 23 36
