Background

Xue Wu comes from Kangxin City, a major center for metal ore distribution. She offers to guide her classmates there during their planned Battle Armor-materials trip and recommends the city's glutinous-rice specialty. 39

She enters Heavenwater Academy in the same cohort as Wu Changkong and the Shui sisters. Her performance places her among the academy's Advanced Class students. 12 14 Having watched Wu defeat Yu Tianxin, Xue Wu immediately approaches him at the academy gates and challenges him to a spar. 12

As one of the five students entrusted with Wu Changkong's Battle Armor project, she chooses the assembler profession alongside Gu Qingbo and agrees to keep the project secret. 38

Appearance

Xue Wu is a tall girl whose first appearance at Heavenwater Academy is marked by a fitted white short dress and an openly teasing smile. 12

• Bright, striking facial features. 12
• Thick brows sweeping toward her temples. 12
• Slightly upturned eyes. 12
• Wears a cold-resistant cloak during the Far North expedition. 47

Personality

Xue Wu is assertive, competitive, and amused rather than deterred by Wu Changkong's coldness. After he refuses her challenge, she presses him with playful teasing instead of backing down. 12 She is similarly combative with Shui Yue'er, turning their difference in innate soul power into a bet over future cultivation results. 16

Her teasing often targets Shui Bing'er and Wu Changkong's relationship. She recognizes their mutual feelings early, encourages Bing'er to be more direct, and ultimately congratulates them despite quietly admitting that witnessing their confession stings. 24 55 61 62

Despite her carefree manner, Xue Wu takes team responsibilities seriously. She feels guilty after oversleeping during a watch in the Far North, remains concerned for her companions during danger, and trusts Shui Bing'er's judgment when they are pursued by the Snow Demon Vajra. 50 53

Abilities & Skills

Snowforged Silken Dance

Xue Wu's tool martial soul manifests as a spinning hexagonal snowflake. It specializes in ice-attribute auxiliary control rather than direct offense. 33

• Creates battlefield-wide cold and snow effects. 33 67
• Supports allies by limiting enemies' movement and combat efficiency. 33
• Her relatively weak constitution makes prolonged Far North exposure more difficult for her than for the other ice-attribute members. 47

Dark Cloud

Her first soul skill gathers dense dark clouds over a target area. 34

• Forms the foundation for her weather-based control combinations. 34 67
• Used with her snowstorm techniques against the Snow Demon Vajra and in Soul Battles. 50 67
• Can help disperse or redirect an enemy's poison mist when coordinated with the team. 78

Ice and Snow / Wind Snow

Xue Wu's third soul skill creates an ice-and-snow domain that suppresses opponents throughout its area of effect. 33 67

• Reduces enemy movement speed, attack speed, and Soul Power circulation efficiency. 33
• Continuously erodes protective Soul Power through extreme cold. 33
• Is less effective against ice-attribute opponents, particularly Wu Changkong's Skyfrost Sword. 33
• Requires substantial Soul Power when maintained alongside her other weather skills. 34

Rainfall Suppression

Xue Wu can combine Dark Cloud with a second soul skill that produces freezing rain capable of draining body heat and eroding Soul Power. 34

• The rain covers the full Soul Arena and pressures non-ice-attribute opponents. 34
• Its combined suppression can significantly reduce an ordinary Soul Elder's combat performance. 34

Martial Soul Fusion Skill — *Ice Snow Withering*

Xue Wu and Shui Bing'er awaken their fusion skill after Bing'er instinctively protects her from Wu Changkong's sword aura. Their martial souls and Soul Power resonate into a massive Ice Phoenix amid a snowstorm. 34 35

• Requires mutual trust, connected Soul Power, and synchronized intent. 35
• Produces an attack with power estimated at the Soul King level. 35
• Can withstand and counter Wu Changkong's full-power Skyfrost Slash. 35
• Leaves both users heavily depleted after use. 35

Trinity Martial Soul Fusion Skill — *Phoenix Descent*

Xue Wu joins Shui Bing'er and Wu Changkong in a three-person fusion skill while fleeing the sixty-thousand-year Snow Demon Vajra. 53

• Forms a white-haired composite figure with a layered male-and-female voice. 53
• Executes Heavenly Phoenix Sky-Roaring Slash, piercing the Vajra's hardened body and killing it. 53
• Has extreme Soul Power consumption; Xue Wu loses consciousness afterward. 53

Equipment / Items

• Cold-resistant cloak — worn during the expedition into the Far North. 47
• Iron Soul Battle badge — received upon registering at Suotuo Great Soul Arena under the codename “Snowflake.” 65

Relationships

• Shui Bing'er — Close friend, combat partner, and co-user of Ice Snow Withering. Xue Wu trusts Bing'er's leadership in crises and encourages her to be open about her relationship with Wu Changkong. 35 53 61 62
• Wu Changkong — Class monitor and teammate. Xue Wu first challenges him to a spar, later supports his Battle Armor project and fights under his command in the Far North. 12 38 50 51
• Shui Yue'er — Friend and playful rival. Their banter includes a cultivation bet and Xue Wu bluntly explaining why Yue'er cannot safely join the Far North expedition. 16 42
• Shui Qinghan — Dean and expedition leader. Shui Qinghan specifically includes Xue Wu in the Far North team to develop her fusion-skill coordination with Shui Bing'er. 41 42
• Gu Qingbo — Fellow Battle Armor assembler and one of the classmates helping record Wu Changkong's introductory Battle Armor guide. 38

Xue Wu joins Wu Changkong's secret Battle Armor initiative as an assembler. She and Gu Qingbo also volunteer to help produce the introductory guide rather than leave all the work to him. 38

Trivia
