Background

Xiao Xiao is a transmigrated individual who spent several years in Holy Spirit Village before his Martial Soul awakening. He is described as an orphan and was acquainted with Tang San prior to joining Spirit Hall. At his awakening, he releases the Extreme Evil God-level Evil Blood Ghost Vine, suppresses two other forces within himself, and displays Innate Spirit Power level 99. 1 3

After revealing his power to Su Yuntao, Xiao Xiao agrees to enter Spirit Hall, but threatens Su Yuntao into keeping his Innate Spirit Power secret. Before leaving the village, he tells Tang San that he is departing to resolve flaws in his Martial Soul, concealing his actual reason for leaving. 2 3

Tang Hao confronts him over his decision to join Spirit Hall. Xiao Xiao evades Tang Hao's attacks with movement abilities, forces him to aggravate his old injury through ring explosion, and leaves after exposing that injury's existence. 4

In Spirit City, Xiao Xiao's half-spirit-beast aura is noticed by Golden Crocodile Douluo. He admits his nature, spars with the elder, and accidentally injures him severely with Holy Lightning Strike before restoring roughly seventy percent of his condition. Gui Mei subsequently brings Xiao Xiao to the Papal Palace. 6

Bibi Dong accepts him as her disciple and gives him three Soul Bones, including one aged 90,000 years. Xiao Xiao later reveals his half-human, half-spirit-beast bloodline to her directly; she promises him protection unless he betrays Spirit Hall. 7 9

Seeking to avoid hunting spirit beasts for rings, Xiao Xiao travels alone to the Star Dou Great Forest. As the Lightning Rabbit Emperor, he locates the Lightning Rabbit tribe and obtains the Condensing Ring Method. He then condenses nine 100,000-year Soul Rings for the Evil Blood Ghost Vine. 10 12 13

Appearance

Xiao Xiao has an exceptionally handsome, youthful appearance that repeatedly causes others to underestimate his age and strength. His looks draw attention from village girls, Hu Liena, arena staff, and spectators. 1 7 16

• Described as possessing an “excessively handsome” face. 1
• Appears young enough to be mistaken for a spectator at the Soto Great Soul Arena. 16
• Maintains a composed, often faintly smiling expression even around powerful elders. 6 7

Personality

Xiao Xiao is outwardly casual and composed, but highly secretive about his cultivation, identity, and true strength. He routinely suppresses his Spirit Power, conceals his aura, and asks Tang San not to disclose their encounters. 6 12 17

He is confident enough to challenge senior Titled Douluo, yet he avoids needless direct confrontations when possible. His conduct can turn cold or threatening when his secrets are at risk, as seen in his warning to Su Yuntao and his reaction to Yan's accusation. 2 8

Despite his power, Xiao Xiao shows restraint toward weaker opponents. He spares Dongfang Linyue during a Death Duel and identifies three personal principles: not killing innocents, not provoking trouble without reason, and not creating unnecessary complications. 20

He also enjoys teasing people he finds endearing, particularly Hu Liena, while openly disliking Yan's sycophantic behavior rather than Yan himself. 13 14

Abilities & Skills

Limit Douluo Cultivation

Xiao Xiao possesses level 99 Spirit Power and can operate as a Limit Douluo despite his youthful appearance. 6

• Can pressure Soul Beasts with an aura comparable to a 100,000-year Soul Beast. 10
• Can detect Gui Mei while the Ghost Douluo is concealed. 6
• Can suppress his displayed Spirit Power to lower ranks, including level 59, level 31, and level 20. 8 12 17
• His aura-concealment can fool opponents up to level 94, but he cannot safely use skills above his sixth Soul Skill without exposing himself. 6

Evil Blood Ghost Vine

His first Martial Soul is the Evil Blood Ghost Vine, an Extreme Evil God-level Martial Soul. Its evil aura is difficult for Xiao Xiao to control, leading Yan to mistake him for an Evil Soul Master. 1 8

• Evil God's Guard — Creates a purple barrier that repels and blocks enemy attacks; it reflects Dongfang Linyue's Flame Burst back onto her. 18
• Ghost Vine World Annihilation — An offensive Soul Skill capable of stopping just short of killing Dongfang Linyue in a Death Duel. 20
• Xiao Xiao condenses nine 100,000-year Soul Rings for this Martial Soul. 13
• Although spectators identify him as a support-type Spirit Master, his Spirit Skills can be used offensively. 18 20

Lightning God Rabbit

Xiao Xiao's second revealed Martial Soul is the Lightning God Rabbit. Its nine-ring configuration consists of eight red rings and one dark-gold ring. 2 6

• Lightning Assault — Raises movement speed by 20%, carries a lightning and paralysis effect, ignores defense, and launches a surprise charge. 4
• Holy Lightning Strike — Forms a lightning-infused weapon slash when a weapon is available, or a self-exploding lightning sphere when one is not. Xiao Xiao accidentally uses excessive force against Golden Crocodile Douluo. 6
• Divine Restoration Electric Crown — Restores approximately seventy percent of a designated target's strength or injuries. 6
• The Lightning Rabbit identity grants him recognition as the Lightning Rabbit Emperor among the tribe. 10 12

• Teleports behind Golden Crocodile Douluo to launch Lightning Assault. 6
• Uses it to leave conversations and avoid unwanted attention. 12 13

Soul Ring Condensation

As a half-spirit beast, Xiao Xiao seeks to follow the “Beast God Path” rather than acquire rings by killing Soul Beasts. 9

• Learns the Condensing Ring Method from the Lightning Rabbit tribe. 12
• Condenses nine 100,000-year Soul Rings after more than ten days in the Star Dou Great Forest. 13
• His current physique struggles to withstand the process, making physical training necessary. 13

Telepathy

Xiao Xiao can communicate telepathically.

• Sends Dongfang Linyue a message after their Soul Duel, asking her to speak with him outside the arena. 20

Equipment / Items

• Three Soul Bones — Given by Bibi Dong; one is a 90,000-year Soul Bone. Xiao Xiao later absorbs all three. 7 15
• Soul Tool — Gifted by Hu Liena because she notices he does not have one. 15
• Spirit Hall black card — Given by Bibi Dong with 150,000 Gold Soul Coins for daily expenses. 16

Relationships

• Bibi Dong — His teacher and the Pope of Spirit Hall. She accepts his half-spirit-beast identity, grants him Soul Bones and funding, and orders his training at the Spirit Dueling Arena. 7 9 15 16
• Tang San — A childhood friend from Holy Spirit Village whom Xiao Xiao calls “Third Brother.” Xiao Xiao supports him during awakening and later reunites with him in the Star Dou Great Forest. 1 3 12
• Tang Hao — Tang San's father and an adversary after Xiao Xiao joins Spirit Hall. Xiao Xiao defeats him without finishing the fight after revealing knowledge of his old injury. 4
• Su Yuntao — The Spirit Hall representative who witnesses Xiao Xiao's awakening and escorts him toward Spirit City. Xiao Xiao threatens him into secrecy and knocks him unconscious before confronting Tang Hao and Golden Crocodile Douluo. 2 4 6
• Hu Liena — Fellow disciple of Bibi Dong and member of Spirit Hall's Golden Generation. She is visibly attracted to Xiao Xiao, while he teases her affectionately. 7 13 14
• Xie Yue — Hu Liena's brother and a member of the Golden Generation. Xiao Xiao considers him perceptive and is curious about him. 7 8 15
• Yan — A Golden Generation member who resents Xiao Xiao over Hu Liena. Xiao Xiao dislikes Yan's fawning behavior and intimidates him by revealing his power. 8 14
• Golden Crocodile Douluo — A Worship Hall elder who discovers Xiao Xiao's spirit-beast aura and spars with him. Xiao Xiao injures then heals him with Divine Restoration Electric Crown. 6
• Gui Mei — The Ghost Douluo who observes Xiao Xiao's battle with Golden Crocodile Douluo and escorts him to the Papal Palace. 6 7
• Dongfang Linyue — His opponent in a Soto Great Soul Arena Death Duel. Xiao Xiao overwhelms her but allows her to surrender rather than killing her. 17 18 20
