Appearance

• Build: Petite, with an initially lively and endearing manner 19 39.

Personality

Xiao Wu is initially lively, curious, and openly affectionate toward Tang San. She instinctively seeks safety beside him when Cao Kun singles her out during training, and continues staying close to him afterward. Her grasp of Martial Soul theory is limited, making her more responsive to personal trust and instinct than technical explanations 21 23 27.

Her loyalty becomes especially clear after Tang San loses his sight: she stays at his bedside and promises to help find a cure. His unexplained disappearance leaves her distraught enough to approach Cao Kun despite believing he caused the crisis 30 31 39.

Under coercion, Xiao Wu becomes fearful and outwardly submissive, but her acceptance of servitude is not freely given. After grieving her lost freedom, she resolves to survive, adapt, and seek the truth. Her concern for Da Ming and Er Ming remains strong enough that she kneels before Cao Kun to plead for their lives 42 43 75.

Abilities & Skills

Soft Bone Rabbit Martial Soul

• Agility and flexibility: Naturally suited to nimble movement and close-range combat 23.
• Grappling: Uses speed and grappling moves as the basis of her early fighting style 23.
• Resilience and self-healing: Cao Kun later strengthens these aspects of her Martial Soul through tailored instruction 91.

Close-Quarters Combat

• Early limitations: Relies heavily on instinct and talent rather than systematic combat techniques. Cao Kun identifies openings that a technically skilled opponent could exploit 23.
• Soul Power control: Initially lacks efficient Soul Power use and suitable burst techniques 23.
• Later refinement: Receives focused training in grappling, Soul Power control, and foundation-building after Cao Kun reaches the Quasi-God Realm 91.

Human Transformation and Concealment

• Human form: Lives among Soul Masters while concealing her identity as a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast 19 40.
• Hidden aura: Despite her Two-Ring cultivation, Dugu Yan detects a deeply concealed presence powerful enough to alarm her 2.
• Exposure risk: Xiao Wu understands that a Titled Douluo can see through her human form; revealing her identity could attract hunters seeking her Soul Ring 40.

Soul Contract

The Chaos Soul Mark, imposed through Cao Kun’s Soul Contract, binds Xiao Wu’s soul and life force to him 41 42.

• Origin: Formed from the Martial Soul Origin of Cao Kun’s Chaos Bell and branded into the core of her soul 41 42.
• Monitoring: Allows Cao Kun to sense her location and emotions 42.
• Enforcement: Betrayal or an attempt to reveal Mount Buzhou’s core secrets or Cao Kun’s true strength activates the mark. Cao Kun can reduce her to a puppet or destroy her Divine Soul 42.
• Minor benefit: Produces a slight soothing effect on her exhausted mind, without removing her fear or restoring her freedom 42.
• Conditions of acceptance: Cao Kun threatens to expose her to Spirit Hall or the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect if she refuses 42.

History

Shrek Academy Enrollment

Xiao Wu arrives at Shrek Academy with Tang San, whom Dugu Yan describes as her older brother. Her concealed aura draws Dugu Yan’s attention immediately, while Cao Kun already recognizes her significance and dismisses her as a “pet rabbit” 2.

When Cao Kun temporarily takes over the students’ instruction, he criticizes Xiao Wu’s instinctive fighting style and recommends a complete close-combat system tailored to the Soft Bone Rabbit. His advice prompts Tang San to consider adapting his former-life grappling techniques for her, although no completed fighting system is documented 20 23.

Tang San’s Blindness and Disappearance

Xiao Wu rushes to Tang San after his Purple Demon Eye encounters Cao Kun’s Chaos Bell and suffers a devastating backlash. She remains beside him during his recovery and vows to help restore his sight 29 30 31.

When Yu Xiaogang takes Tang San away under the pretext of seeking treatment, Xiao Wu asks to accompany them. Yu refuses and tells her to wait at the academy. Their continued absence turns her concern into distress, and the academy eventually discovers that the medical explanation was false 36 37 38.

Coerced Service at Buzhou Retreat

Dugu Yan invites Xiao Wu to meet Cao Kun, hinting that he may know Tang San’s whereabouts. Xiao Wu initially refuses and blames Cao Kun’s criticism of Yu Xiaogang for Tang San’s injury, but her desire for news eventually overcomes her distrust 39.

Instead of answering her request directly, Cao Kun reveals Tang San’s connection to Tang Hao and claims that Tang Hao killed Tang San’s Soul Beast mother for her ring. These allegations make Xiao Wu fear that Tang San’s kindness might conceal a similar intention toward her; they are presented as Cao Kun’s claims, not independently established facts 40.

Cao Kun then exposes his knowledge of her identity, prevents her escape, and displays three Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Rings. He offers protection for her and possibly Da Ming and Er Ming, securing her reluctant agreement to become his maid before imposing the Soul Contract 40 41 42.

Zhu Zhuqing helps her settle into Buzhou Retreat and explains its rules. Alone afterward, Xiao Wu struggles with grief and doubts about Tang San, then chooses endurance and a search for the truth over despair 43.

Return to the Star Dou Great Forest

As Mount Buzhou prepares its forest expedition, Xiao Wu fears that Cao Kun will target Da Ming and Er Ming for their rings. His reassurance is conditional: their safety matters to him provided they do not oppose the sect’s interests 59 60.

At the Lake of Life, Da Ming greets her as “Sister Xiao Wu,” revealing her nature to Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing. The two forest rulers notice her fear of Cao Kun and challenge him. After he forces both to the ground, Xiao Wu kneels and begs him to spare them 74 75.

Cao Kun recruits the brothers as Mount Buzhou’s guardian beasts rather than killing them. Xiao Wu is allowed to rise, while Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing are ordered to keep the revelations secret. Their subsequent wariness leaves Xiao Wu anxious about how they now regard her 76 77.

Advancement Under Mount Buzhou

Xiao Wu accompanies Cao Kun to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and receives an attribute-suited Immortal Herb, reaching the peak of Level 39. Later individualized instruction strengthens her resilience, self-healing, grappling, and Soul Power control before she obtains her fourth Soul Ring and reaches Level 41 85 87 91 92.

She subsequently leaves Sunset Forest with Cao Kun, Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, and the others on a journey to the sea 99.
