Background / History

Star Lake and Entry into Human Society

Xiao Wu is a hundred-thousand-year soul beast who takes human form and enters human society. Her home is Star Lake, a smaller offshoot within the Star Dou Great Forest’s core region. She considers Da Ming and Er Ming her “two little brothers” and claims authority over them, but avoids the terrifying beings near the Lake of Life 5 18.

At Noding Academy, she arrives at Dorm Seven carrying a new uniform and immediately challenges Lin Mo for leadership. Although her technique and experience exceed his, his strength and Eye of Myriad Phenomena allow him to defeat her. She concedes, then discovers that she has brought no bedding 5.

Her attempt to share Lin Mo’s bedding establishes their sibling-like arrangement. When Tang San intervenes on her behalf, she instead kicks him down and demands that he apologize to Lin Mo. The dorm subsequently recognizes Lin Mo as its big brother and Xiao Wu as its big sister 6.

Leaving Noding and Revealing Her Identity

Over the following three years, Xiao Wu grows close to Lin Mo, becomes the academy’s leading girl, and joins him in bullying Tang San under the guise of sparring. Bored with Noding, she accompanies Lin Mo when he arranges early graduation. They visit Old Jerry in Soul Emperor Village before continuing toward Suotuo City and Shrek Academy 14 15.

She dislikes Shrek’s shabby facilities and sparse student population, but enrolls alongside Lin Mo. When Flender offers to help them hunt for soul rings, she supports Lin Mo’s refusal: as a transformed soul beast, she can condense her own rings 16 17.

Lin Mo then asks directly whether she is a hundred-thousand-year soul beast. Her immediate fear is that he will resent her secrecy or abandon her. His assurance that he knew from their first meeting allows her to stop hiding her identity from him 17 18.

Return to the Forest

Xiao Wu brings Lin Mo home and prevents Er Ming from attacking him by explaining that he has treated her kindly despite knowing her identity. She introduces him to Da Ming and recounts her experiences in the human world. During the visit, Lin Mo secretly copies soul rings and soul bones from both beasts 19.

After condensing her second ring, Xiao Wu soon grows bored with forest life and wants to leave again. She remains conflicted about Lin Mo’s need to hunt soul beasts and specifically asks him not to harm rabbits. Before departing, she instructs Da Ming and Er Ming to protect him secretly while he remains in the forest 19 23.

Birthday Gift and Protection

Lin Mo celebrates Xiao Wu’s birthday—the anniversary of her transformation into human form—with a day of dining in Suotuo City. His gift, Lovesick Heartbreak Red, responds immediately when she nourishes it with her heart’s blood and thinks of someone she loves. She initially wants to preserve it as a symbol of love, but ultimately consumes it at his urging 39 40.

The herb raises her from rank 34 to rank 42 and conceals her soul-beast aura. Later, Lin Mo tells her that Tang San and Tang Hao already know her identity. Frightened, she concludes that Tang Hao may have been preserving her soul ring for Tang San. She accepts Lin Mo’s protection and waits inside his Wishful Treasure Pouch while he confronts Tang Hao 40 46.

When released, she learns that Tang Hao is dead and receives reassurance that the herb now prevents others from recognizing her true nature 49.

Friendship, Forest Expedition, and Departure from Shrek

Xiao Wu befriends Zhu Zhuqing in Suotuo City, tells her about Dai Mubai’s brothel visits, and accompanies her through Shrek’s registration. Their friendship later draws Xiao Wu into a fight when Dai Mubai tries to force Zhu Zhuqing to respond to him; Ning Rongrong supports the girls, while Tang San and Ma Hongjun side with Dai Mubai 41 42 43 49.

She encourages Zhu Zhuqing to seek Lin Mo as a master without revealing his Immortal Herb secret. During the subsequent forest expedition, she helps pursue soul beasts, serves as a diversion against the Purple Shadow Lion, and captures a Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent with Zhu Zhuqing 50 53 55 56.

After Yu Xiaogang confronts Lin Mo, Xiao Wu joins Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong in defending him. When Lin Mo decides to leave Shrek, she agrees immediately, withdraws from the academy, and travels with the group to Heaven Dou City 63 64 65.

Appearance

• Hair: Long hair worn in a scorpion braid at her introduction 5.
• Face: Rosy cheeks and expressive, watery eyes 5.
• Height: Approximately 1.7 metres by the time she consumes Lovesick Heartbreak Red 40.
• Rabbit features: Lin Mo’s initial appraisal includes her Soft Bone Rabbit ears as a possible copying reward 5.

Personality

Xiao Wu is competitive, outspoken, and quick to challenge authority. She contests Dorm Seven’s leadership immediately, answers Dai Mubai’s rudeness with insults, and openly mocks Shrek’s name and facilities. She is also capable of conceding when she recognizes an opponent’s advantage 5 15 16 17.

Food and novelty easily capture her attention. She spends money on snacks and trinkets, repeatedly asks Lin Mo to bring treats, and grows bored at Star Lake after exhausting her stories about human life. Her unfamiliarity with human currency does not stop her from generously offering to buy lunch for Dorm Seven 6 8 15 19.

Her loyalty extends beyond Lin Mo to her close friends. She shields him from Er Ming, intervenes when Zhu Zhuqing is harassed, and leaves Shrek without hesitation when Lin Mo resigns. Her concern for soul beasts also remains strong: she dislikes hunting her own kind, asks that rabbits be spared, and appreciates avoiding unnecessary killing 19 49 52 64.
