Background / History
Early Life and Shrek Academy
Xiao Wu’s mother was killed by Bibi Dong. After taking human form, Xiao Wu attended the academy in Nuoding City before enrolling at Shrek alongside Tang San. Su Ling helps her and the other newcomers complete their enrollment 4 105.
She initially treats Tang San as the most important person in her life, calling him “Brother.” Nevertheless, she admires Su Ling’s strength and agrees with his insistence that Dai Mubai honor his promises. At the Great Soul Arena, she accepts Zhu Zhuqing’s request to become her two-on-two partner and wins her opening individual match 4 10.
During Shrek’s expedition to the Star Dou Great Forest, the Titan Giant Ape takes Xiao Wu away, giving her an opportunity to condense her third soul ring privately. She returns unharmed and conceals what happened behind a story about finding a dying soul beast 14 15.
When Yu Xiaogang leaves Shrek, Xiao Wu follows Tang San despite her reluctance to leave the academy. Before her departure, Su Ling reveals that he knows her identity and lends her the Lovesick Heartbreak Red to conceal her aura 41.
Star Luo Royal Academy
Xiao Wu joins Star Luo Royal Academy with Tang San and Dai Mubai. Her trust in Su Ling grows while her relationship with Tang San deteriorates: she dislikes Dai Mubai’s behavior, resents the others’ disparagement of Su Ling, and feels increasingly sidelined by Tang San’s closeness to Dai Mubai 49 59 64 65.
Su Ling secretly helps her condense her fourth soul ring. Later, he rescues her from two soul-beast traffickers whose control skills have trapped her. This rescue raises her affection enough for his system to bind her 62 64.
The two subsequently release captive soul beasts and destroy six trafficking dens, rescuing 136 additional beasts. A later day spent shopping, eating, and attending an auction brings her affection to 82, which the system identifies as love. She nevertheless declines Su Ling’s invitation to return to Shrek because she still cannot entirely let go of Tang San 65 68 69.
Exposure in Spirit City
Xiao Wu reunites with Su Ling and her Shrek friends during the tournament finals. Tang San subsequently rebukes her for visiting them and restricts her movements, leaving her in tears 86 87.
During Star Luo Royal Academy’s battle with Spirit Hall Academy, Hu Liena knocks Xiao Wu away. The Lovesick Heartbreak Red falls from her body, exposing her soul-beast aura. After the tournament, Bibi Dong identifies her publicly and orders her capture 91 93.
Although Tang San initially stands in her defense, Tang Hao escapes with him alone. His worsening injuries leave him unable to carry Xiao Wu as well. Facing capture, she attempts to take her own life to prevent Spirit Hall from obtaining her soul ring; Su Ling intervenes through fusion with his companions and escapes with her 93 94 95.
Lake of Life and Later Training
After her rescue, Xiao Wu stops addressing Tang San as “Brother” and turns fully toward Su Ling. At the Lake of Life, he gives her ninth-grade crystal blood dragon ginseng, helping her reach level 53, and supplies a cultivation method and medicinal pills for further training 95 96 113.
She later fuses with Su Ling and Liu Erlong during the battle against the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. After leaving the lake to find Su Ling, she reunites with him in Heaven Dou City and joins his group’s training on Sea God Island 110 153 162.
On Sea God Island, Xiao Wu decisively chooses Su Ling as her partner and rejects Tang San’s attempts to reclaim their former relationship. Later, she undergoes Ice and Fire Body Tempering, obtains her hundred-thousand-year eighth ring, and accompanies Su Ling to the Blue Silver Forest, where she supports Ah Yin’s rejection of Tang Hao 203 230 231 233.
Appearance
- Appears approximately thirteen years old during the soul-beast trafficking incident in Star Luo City; she is later stated to be fifteen 64 101.
- Taking ninth-grade crystal blood dragon ginseng markedly improves her skin, appearance, height, figure, and overall bearing 96.
- Her eyes emit faint pink light when she activates Charm 64.
Personality
Xiao Wu is affectionate, outspoken, and protective of soul beasts. She challenges Dai Mubai’s conduct rather than accepting Tang San’s excuses for him, and she attacks traffickers after discovering their captive animals. Her concern extends beyond her own species: she helps release the rescued beasts and asks Su Ling to target other trafficking operations 64 65.
She enjoys shopping and food, using both to lift her mood when unhappy, but also asks for unfinished snacks to be packed rather than wasted. Her early loyalty to Tang San makes her reluctant to leave him even after falling for Su Ling. Repeated exclusion and her abandonment in Spirit City ultimately change that loyalty into disappointment 41 68 69 95.

System Bond with Su Ling
Xiao Wu’s bond grants Su Ling copies of abilities and a share of her daily cultivation gains. These benefits do not reduce her own cultivation speed; the listed ranges and durations describe his system-granted skills, not necessarily her native limits 64 65 68 94 96 203.

- Teleportation Trial Card — Given to her before Su Ling leaves the Lake of Life 96.
Relationships
- Su Ling — Protector, system-bond partner, and eventual romantic partner. His protection of her identity and repeated rescues establish her trust; she later explicitly chooses him over Tang San 41 64 93 203.
- Tang San — Former closest companion, whom she calls “Brother.” Her attachment weakens through his defense of Dai Mubai, restrictions on her friendships, and departure from Spirit City without her. She ultimately thanks him for his past care while ending their relationship 41 64 87 95 203.

- Sky Azure Bull Python / Da Ming — Lake of Life companion who watches over her cultivation after she takes the crystal blood dragon ginseng 96.
- Dai Mubai — Academy associate she increasingly dislikes, particularly for his treatment of the Zhu sisters and Tang San’s repeated defense of him 49 59 64.
- Bibi Dong — Killed Xiao Wu’s mother and later seeks Xiao Wu’s hundred-thousand-year soul ring and soul bone 93 105.
