Recorded Measurements

Background

Xie Xie comes from the wealthy Xie family of Eastsea City. His family has worked with mecha for generations, and his elders required him to study related subjects from childhood. He cites these studies when defending his cultivation progress to Wu Changkong 17 66.

His mother often brought him to Uncle Li’s small beef-pot restaurant when he was young. He remains attached to the restaurant and its owner, later introducing Tang Wulin and Jiang Mingyuan to the food there 20 21.

Personality

Xie Xie is outspoken, proud of his talent, and determined to become the continent’s strongest Agility-Attack Soul Master. His confidence frequently becomes boasting: he takes pride in his spiritual-power score, poses over his appearance, and enthusiastically recounts his victories. Wu Changkong identifies complacency as a serious obstacle to realizing his innate potential 14 17 36 120 135.

His temper often acts faster than his judgment, but he recognizes overwhelming strength. After angrily confronting Jiang Mingyuan during their first meeting, he immediately changes his approach upon seeing two soul rings. He subsequently admits that he acted impulsively and accepts Jiang Mingyuan’s apology 12.

Beneath his bluster, Xie Xie is generous and concerned for his companions. He gives Uncle Li substantial financial help, feeds the hungry Xu Lizhi, and worries about Jiang Mingyuan after the Tianhai Academy match. His teasing and frequent mishaps also make him a recurring source of comic relief within Class Zero 21 83 93 96.

• Dual wielding: Uses both daggers to coordinate rapid attacks and exploit openings created by teammates 19 32.
• Rapid combinations: Can produce dozens of intersecting blade trails through successive slashes and thrusts 44.
• Limited penetration: His Light Dragon Dagger cannot reach deeply enough through a Crystal Bear’s hide and fat because of its short blade and his insufficient strength 38.
