Shui Bing'er

Biodata

Background and History

Shui Bing’er captained Skywater Academy’s team in the Advanced Continental Soul Master Academy Tournament. Her team drew with Ning Rongrong’s in the preliminary matches and nearly defeated it; the two recognize each other when they meet again on the Deserted Island 2.

Chu Xiu selects Shui Bing’er as one of his first three co-survivors for her Ice Phoenix’s control abilities and her combat intelligence. On arrival, she finds that she cannot use her martial soul or Soul Power. She helps settle disputes among the survivors and redirects their attention to food, water, shelter, and safety 2 3.

During a search near the mountain, an Owl soul beast attacks Shui Bing’er. Chu Xiu takes its talons through his chest while protecting her and kills it. Shui Bing’er helps remove the talons after Spirit Rice begins healing his wound. She later admits that she had overestimated her ability to react without her martial soul and Soul Power 15 16 18.

• Distinguishing feature — Her Ice Phoenix is her martial soul, not a visible feature she can use while the island suppresses her powers 2.

Personality

Shui Bing’er is competitive but avoids arguments for their own sake. She repeatedly mediates between Ning Rongrong and Qian Renxue, preferring to keep the group focused on survival 3 6 9. She is protective of Rongrong, warns her about the forest’s dangers, and supports her during a venomous snakebite 7 8.

After the Owl attack, Shui Bing’er accepts responsibility for freezing instead of making excuses. She cares for Chu Xiu but does not contest Rongrong’s offer to tend his injuries, believing Rongrong liked him first 17 18.
