Background / History
Xie Xie is a Shrek Academy student trained by Wu Zhangkong alongside Tang Wulin. Wu Zhangkong takes the pair to the Suo Tuo Grand Spirit Arena for practical-combat training and assigns them a required winning streak, with extra training as the penalty for failure 24.
He is identified as a rich young master from East Sea City and is notably familiar with modern soul-master concepts such as Soul Spirits, virtual-space recovery functions, and data-created soul beasts 44 82.
During a virtual battle, Dai Yun'er's mental attacks leave him unable to contribute effectively. Xie Xie later acknowledges that he must improve in order to keep pace with Tang Wulin, including training both of his dagger martial souls 33 35.
By the Shrek Academy Freshman Tournament, Xie Xie has advanced to Level 48 and can wield the Light Dragon Dagger and Shadow Dragon Dagger together in battle 218.
Personality
Xie Xie is playful, confident, and fond of teasing others. He casually challenges opponents to surrender, jokes about Tang Wulin becoming his “little brother,” and needles Tang San at every opportunity 33 159 184.
His confidence is tempered by self-awareness. After being repeatedly shut down by Dai Yun'er's spiritual abilities, he recognizes his own shortcomings rather than denying them 33 35. He is also difficult to manipulate: when Tang San attempts to exploit their shared knowledge of Tang Sect techniques, Xie Xie sees through the attempt and incapacitates him instead 139.
Xie Xie can still be overconfident against seemingly less threatening opponents. He dismisses Xu Xiaoyan's chances based on her control-system role and lower Soul Power, only for her to exploit his continued weakness in spiritual power and defeat him 218.
He also enjoys ridiculing unreasonable demands. When Yu Xiaogang attempts to impose multiple conditions on Tang Wulin under the guise of a single request, Xie Xie openly mocks the contradiction 232.
Abilities & Skills
Twin Dagger Martial Souls
Xie Xie possesses the Light Dragon Dagger and Shadow Dragon Dagger, making him a twin martial soul user 33 35.
- Light Dragon Dagger — his primary documented weapon; a pale-gold dagger used for rapid close-range attacks 25.
- Shadow Dragon Dagger — his second martial soul, which he intends to train and master alongside the Light Dragon Dagger 35.
- By the Freshman Tournament, he can manifest and fight with both the Light Dragon Dagger and Shadow Dragon Dagger simultaneously 218.
- His fighting style emphasizes agility, movement, timing, and exploiting openings rather than direct exchanges of force 25.
Ghost Shadow Perplexing Step / Track
Xie Xie uses a movement technique recognized by Tang San as resembling the Tang Sect’s Ghost Shadow Perplexing Step. In later confrontation, Tang San calls Xie Xie’s version faster, steadier, and less energy-consuming than his own Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track 25 139.
- Evades Yu Yuan’s repeated frontal attacks without being hit 25.
- Keeps pace with Tang San even when Tang San pushes his movement technique to its limit 139.
- His use of the technique causes Tang San to suspect that Xie Xie originated from another world; Xie Xie denies being anyone’s reincarnation 139.
Light Dragon Blade
Xie Xie can activate his first soul skill, Light Dragon Blade, through the Light Dragon Dagger 48.
- Used to attack Tang Hao after Tang Wulin restrains him with Blue Silver Grass 48.
Light Dragon Storm
Xie Xie’s second soul skill, Light Dragon Storm, has him rotate at high speed while wielding the Light Dragon Dagger, generating a golden tornado-like attack with broad offensive and defensive coverage 218.
- Used against Xu Xiaoyan during the Freshman Tournament after he closes into melee range 218.
- Its momentum is interrupted when Xu Xiaoyan strikes his spiritual weakness with consecutive Spirit Shocks 218.
Illusory Split
Xie Xie’s third soul skill creates two identical versions of himself, forcing opponents to distinguish the real attacker from the illusion 25.
- Used against Yu Yuan after Xie Xie studies his attack pattern 25.
- Creates an opening for a dagger thrust into Yu Yuan’s shoulder blade, securing Xie Xie’s victory 25.
Spirit Shock
Xie Xie can use Spirit Shock, a spiritual attack capable of incapacitating Tang San 138 139.
- Tang San recognizes the attack as dangerous and attempts to defend against it using a bracelet that reflects spiritual attacks 138.
- Xie Xie later uses Spirit Shock to incapacitate Tang San after rejecting his manipulation attempt 139.
- He possesses a form of Spirit Defense, but Xu Xiaoyan’s initial Spirit Shock lands before he can activate it; he is only able to partially resist her following attacks 218.
Soul-Master Knowledge
Xie Xie explains specialized soul-master technology and mechanics to classmates unfamiliar with them.
- Defines Soul Spirits as energy bodies formed after soul beasts die or created artificially; they can provide soul rings and assist in battle 36.
- Explains that soul beasts generated in the Soul Beast Tower are data-based, lack intelligence, and leave energy-formed soul rings that any team member may absorb 82.
- Knows the distinction between bandits and Evil Soul Masters and identifies the latter by their behavior 163.

- Placed sixth in the Shrek Academy Freshman Tournament — earned a full set of Ninety Thousand Year Soul Bones, ninety thousand Contribution Points, a Black-Grade Mecha, and two Level-Seven Soul Tools 249.
