Xiao Xiaoxian

Biodata

Power Progression

Background / History

Xiao Xiaoxian began playing Light of Freedom in his first year of middle school. By his university years, he is credited with seven or eight years of gaming experience, with his ability attributed to both natural talent and sustained practice 38.

After graduating from middle school, he watched One Leaf Windwalk, Wangying Lanxi, and Carefree Immortal win the 3v3 world championship against Heavenfall’s American team. Carefree Immortal’s Light Priest became his idol, inspiring him to pursue the same class and aspire to become a legendary priest. He consequently regards the Warrior–Mage–Priest combination as the strongest lineup 38.

War Hero Yi Yan recognized his talent and appointed him a core priest in the Ninth Division’s Raid Team despite objections from other members. To cultivate his skills, Yi Yan paired him with a Warrior and a Mage who were among the division’s best players 37 38.

Personality

Xiao Xiaoxian is earnest but inexperienced in handling people. He repeatedly praises Carefree Immortal in front of Kuang Dao, unaware that his idol helped humiliate the deputy division chief. Even after veterans warn him, he accepts Kuang Dao’s claim that he does not mind and praises his apparent generosity 35.

His enthusiasm for elite players makes challenging encounters exciting rather than merely threatening. Seeing the name One Leaf Windwalk helps spur him to perform beyond his usual level, and the later suggestion that he actually fought God Ye leaves him thrilled 39 43 50.

He is modest about his skills and hesitant to act on uncertain conclusions. Yi Yan identifies this lack of confidence as a weakness and encourages him to make urgent calls without waiting for permission. Xiao Xiaoxian also admires Yi Yan’s ability to calm Kuang Dao and hopes to learn that interpersonal skill 41 50.

Abilities & Skills

Divine Prophecy

Divine Prophecy is an anti-control spell that dispels two negative effects from a friendly target after a two-second delay 38.

• Preventive use: Can be cast on himself before incoming crowd control, allowing the delayed dispel to free him afterward 38.
• Casting restriction: Cannot be cast while the caster is already crowd-controlled 38.
• Timing vulnerability: Ye Fengxing’s spell cancellations and feints repeatedly draw out unnecessary casts, exposing the gap between their execution speeds 44.

Healing

Xiao Xiaoxian combines instant and cast-time healing to recover allies under concentrated fire 38.

• Light Infusion: An instant-cast heal that restores more than 500 health to his Mage teammate during Ye Fengxing’s ambush 38.
• Follow-up healing: A chanted spell restores more than 600 health in the same exchange; a later heal restores more than 800 health to Cold-Hearted 38 44.
• Resource limits: Sustained burst damage and rapid target switching force him to spend mana heavily, leaving him and another healer dangerously low 44.

Shield of Light

Shield of Light places a protective barrier on the caster or an ally 38.

• Uses the shield after healing his Mage teammate, preventing the next Flame Arrow from taking away any health 38.

Reactions and Combat Awareness

His strongest demonstrated talent is recognizing attacks and mechanics quickly enough to respond during narrow openings 39 44.

• Reacts to Cyclone Bind’s fleeting casting cue rather than relying solely on prediction; Ye Fengxing judges him to have the potential to become a professional player 38 39.
• Understands the precision required when Ye Fengxing parries an Assassin’s crowd-control attack with a dagger and counters with Finger Sever 44.
• Recognizes professional-level play but declines to estimate Ye Fengxing’s full strength because the raid never forces him into a desperate situation 46 50.

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Holy Light Cross — Held while casting an 800-plus-health heal on Cold-Hearted 44.
• Light Priest equipment set — Class-restricted gear supplied through the team’s early investment in its healer; its quality is noted as good, but individual pieces are not named 34.

Relationships

• Carefree Immortal — Idol and self-described first spiritual mentor. His championship performance inspires Xiao Xiaoxian’s class choice, ambition, and character name 35 38 50.
• War Hero Yi Yan — Division leader and mentor. Recruits him over objections, selects strong teammates for him, and authorizes him to make urgent tactical calls 37 38 41.
• Kuang Dao — Deputy division chief. Resents his admiration for Carefree Immortal and poor social awareness, but reluctantly acknowledges his tactical talent 35 47.
• Ye Fengxing / One Leaf Windwalk — Battlefield opponent and admired Beaconfire player. Ye Fengxing recognizes his professional potential, while Xiao Xiaoxian initially assumes the Mage merely borrowed God Ye’s name 39 42 50.
• Brother Bing — Mage teammate who hears his explanation of the reaction-based Divine Prophecy maneuver and praises his skill 39.
• Cold-Hearted — Guild teammate whom he heals; both agree that their opponent possesses at least professional-level ability 44 46.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Forest Ambush and Talent Test

During the Ninth Division’s search for Ye Fengxing, Xiao Xiaoxian’s apparent distraction turns out to be vigilance against an ambush. He casts Divine Prophecy before Cyclone Bind disables him, breaks free, and saves his Mage teammate through healing and shielding. Yi Yan praises the rescue, while Ye Fengxing recognizes a much rarer level of talent 37 38 39.

Ye Fengxing returns to test him with a false Cyclone Bind followed by a real cast. Xiao Xiaoxian responds immediately before the actual spell lands, confirming the quality of his reactions 39.

Recognizing the Bait

Xiao Xiaoxian deduces that Ye Fengxing possesses a stealth-type ability and has immobilized and slowed Kuang Dao to lure the raid away before doubling back. His explanation is correct but too lengthy to prevent Kuang Dao’s death. Yi Yan uses the incident to teach him to act first in an emergency rather than wait until he is certain 41.

When the leaders decide to stop pursuing the Mage and redirect attention through online mockery, Xiao Xiaoxian asks whether their opponent might really be God Ye. Yi Yan dismisses that possibility 42.

Cave Confrontation

His questions about an unseen “monster’s” attack type help the group recognize that the cave’s defender may be the same fire-using Mage. In the ensuing battle, Ye Fengxing’s rapid target changes and spell feints overwhelm his healing rhythm and undermine his confidence. Witnessing the Mage’s dagger parry further convinces him that their opponent is professionally skilled 43 44.

Layered Healing Plan

At the cave entrance, Xiao Xiaoxian proposes maintaining suppressive fire while advancing melee fighters three abreast. One healer group would remain outside the defenders’ line of sight and heal a second group near the entrance; that second group would support the advancing melee fighters. Yi Yan approves, and even Kuang Dao privately acknowledges the plan’s ingenuity 47.

After Cloud Pavilion’s arrival, Kuang Dao questions him about the Mage’s ability and suggests that the opponent may truly be One Leaf Windwalk. Xiao Xiaoxian reacts with astonishment and excitement, although the leaders still treat the identity as unconfirmed 50.
