Power Progression

Background / History

Human Transformation and First Meeting

Xiao Wu left the Star Dou Great Forest to search for an enemy connected to her blood feud with Spirit Hall. As a transformed hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast, she needed sustained contact with humans to continue cultivating; without it, her cultivation could stagnate or regress. Full transformation into a human would require reaching rank seventy 16 51 53.

She initially intended to obtain Red Maple Village’s work-study place and enroll at Nuoding City’s junior Soul Master academy. After rescuing the injured Grandma Su Xi, she received food and lodging in Lin Yang’s room. Lin Yang recognized her true nature, confronted her outside the village, and defeated her. Rather than kill her, he warned her that someone near Nuoding City and Holy Soul Village could see through her disguise 15 16.

Star Luo Captivity and Traveling with Lin Yang

Following the warning, Xiao Wu traveled with a caravan into the Star Luo Empire and enrolled at another junior academy. After she severely injured a noble boy who harassed her, he reported her to Dai Ziming. A five-ring Soul King captured her, and she remained imprisoned in a carriage until Lin Yang rescued her 31.

Their reunion gradually became a partnership. During their escape from the Gengjin Sword Bamboo, Xiao Wu attempted to sacrifice her own safety to help Lin Yang escape, only for him to rescue her as well. He later offered to teach her the Transparent World so that she could conceal her Soul Beast presence 32 33 34.

Suotuo City and Arena Training

Unable to practice Lin Yang’s Sun Breathing safely, Xiao Wu learned Wind Breathing and developed the Breath of Softness around her own grappling techniques. In Suotuo City, she competed as Charming Rabbit, partnering with Lin Yang’s Blade Ghost in the Gui Mei Blade Rabbit team 35 36 38.

Lin Yang deliberately placed her under genuine combat pressure, including having her face the Tiger Leopard Brothers alone. A near-fatal attack triggered her Demon Slayer Mark. Continued matches exposed weaknesses that raw talent could not solve: she narrowly survived poisoning in the team’s only draw and learned to suppress its spread with her Breathing Style 39 40 42.

Shrek Academy and the Transparent World

When Lin Yang left to pursue Immortal Herbs in Heaven Dou City, he arranged for Xiao Wu to stay at Shrek Academy. Its remote location, powerful but non-Titled teachers, and proximity to the Star Dou Great Forest made it a temporary refuge while she worked toward the Transparent World. Before leaving, he gave her a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone 51 52 53.

Xiao Wu continued seeking dangerous fights, eventually challenging the rank-forty-one Shadow Cat while still a two-ring Soul Grandmaster. On the brink of death, she attained the Transparent World. After recovering, she graduated early with Flender’s approval and left farewell letters for the academy’s staff 92 93 94 95.

At the Lake of Life, her concealment worked well enough that Da Ming and Er Ming did not detect her approach. She introduced Lin Yang as the person she loved, then absorbed the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum under their protection 96 97.

Heaven Dou and the Academy Tournament

Xiao Wu settled at the Butterfly Mansion and joined Heaven Dou Royal Academy. She immediately clashed with Dugu Yan over Lin Yang, though both later fought for the same academy. Initially held back from one tournament to preserve the academy’s strength for the next, she subsequently helped demonstrate Heaven Dou’s superiority during an exchange with the Five Elemental Academies 97 104 142 162.

During a return visit to Shrek, Xiao Wu defeated Dai Mubai after he flirted with her and offered preferential treatment. Later, she fought beside Lin Yang against Tang Hao, repeatedly blocking his hammer with Invincible Golden Body. Her finishing kick blasted Tang Hao backward but badly damaged her own leg; she had recovered by the group’s return to Heaven Dou City 141 146 147 151.

In tournament competition, Xiao Wu and Dugu Yan rapidly incapacitated the Star Luo team’s strongest fighters. Against Shrek, she blocked Tang San’s Clear Sky Hammer attack and kicked him away after he dissolved the fusion skill. She later completed graduation formalities with her Heaven Dou teammates 187 196 200.

Slaughter City

Xiao Wu insisted on accompanying Lin Yang to Slaughter City because she wanted to become stronger. Although its restrictions prevented her from using her Soul Rings, her perfected Breathing Style, Transparent World, and newly awakened spatial movement left her highly effective in physical combat. Her first documented Hell Slaughter Arena victory took little more than ten seconds 205 207.

After celebrating ten years together, the pair resumed accumulating arena victories. Once each had passed sixty matches, the King of Slaughter ordered their bouts delayed. They countered by using Lin Yang’s mental control to arrange opponents and reached seventy-five victories each. Black Armored Knights then surrounded them on charges of manipulating matches, with a Titled Douluo leading the arrest 209 210.

Appearance

• Hair and eyes: Glossy black hair, usually worn in a long scorpion-tail braid, and pink eyes 15 31 35 209.
• Build: Initially petite; later described with a slender waist, defined abdominal muscles, and long, powerful legs 38 209.
• Clothing: Wears a pale pink Sakura Dress during her arrival in Suotuo City and a mask while competing under her arena identity 35 36.
• Martial Soul possession: Develops furry rabbit ears, reddened eyes, and a slightly taller, more slender physique 15 52.

Personality

Xiao Wu is lively, curious, talkative, and mischievous. She enthusiastically explores unfamiliar cities, teases Lin Yang, and tricks him into eating an extremely sour candied hawthorn. Her confidence also makes her combative: she enjoys challenging groups of opponents and demands recognition as “Sister Xiao Wu” from people she has beaten 31 35 36 94 141 162.

Her early bravado conceals inexperience with genuine mortal danger. She initially assumes the security of training will carry over into real combat, then nearly dies through carelessness against the Tiger Leopard Brothers. Although she insists afterward that she is unaffected, she sleeps poorly that night 39 40.

She becomes increasingly determined to stand beside Lin Yang rather than depend entirely on his protection. She risks her life to master the Transparent World, refuses to abandon him when a Titled Douluo threatens them, and voluntarily enters Slaughter City. Her capacity for violence also changes with experience: she spares the unconscious Xiong Li early on but later kills Slaughter City attackers and arena opponents without hesitation 38 95 143 205 207.

Abilities & Skills

Soft Style and Breath of Softness

Xiao Wu specializes in grappling, kicks, flexibility, and explosive strength from her waist and abdomen. Her self-created Breath of Softness combines these foundations with Wind Breathing’s speed and cutting power 35 38.

• Close-range pressure: Particularly difficult for opponents within the three-ring stage to escape once she establishes her combat rhythm 38.
• Breathing control: Can slow the spread of poison, though this does not make her immune to it 42.
• Compatibility limit: Sun Breathing causes her Soul Power to run wild; Wind Breathing provides the suitable foundation for her own style 35.

Soul Skills

Demon Slayer Mark

The Demon Slayer Mark awakens during Xiao Wu’s life-threatening fight against the Tiger Leopard Brothers 39 40.

• Dramatically enhances strength, speed, perception, and all five senses 40.
• Allows her to overpower two-ring opponents while she still has only one ring 40.
• Does not eliminate disadvantages in speed: Shadow Cat’s enhancement skill still leaves her struggling to survive before her Transparent World breakthrough 92.

Transparent World

Taught by Lin Yang, the Transparent World develops from precise control over the body. Xiao Wu masters it through the crisis of her fight against Shadow Cat 34 41 92 93 95.

• Presence concealment: Completely hides her Soul Beast presence; Da Ming and Er Ming fail to detect her approach 96.
• Anticipatory evasion: Allows her to begin moving before attacks arrive, avoiding them through minute adjustments rather than superior speed 93.
• Combat synergy: Combined with repeated teleportation, greatly improves her ability to seize the initiative 97.

Innate Spatial Movement

The Glazed Pearl fully awakens Xiao Wu’s spatial potential 207.

• Enables short-distance shifts without using Soul Skills, remaining available under Slaughter City’s restrictions 207.
• Gives her exceptional sensitivity to nearby spatial fluctuations 155.

Equipment / Items

• Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone: A hundred-thousand-year Soul Bone gifted by Lin Yang. Provides flight and healing; he instructs her to conceal its abilities to avoid attracting those who would seize it 53 146.
• Soul Tool Ring: Stores personal belongings, including carrot cushions, rabbit dolls, and gifts from Lin Yang 53.
• Arena mask and Iron Soul Badge: Used for her registration and competition as Charming Rabbit 36.
• Medicinal baths and whale rubber: Part of Lin Yang’s body-strengthening regimen. Xiao Wu reports stronger physique and smoother Soul Power circulation afterward 41.
• Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum: An Immortal-grade herb that strengthens her body, increases her Soul Power, and leaves a faint golden sheen when she circulates it 96 97.

Relationships

• Lin Yang — Rescuer, teacher, teammate, and romantic partner. Their initially hostile encounter develops into mutual trust; she openly declares her love before Da Ming and Er Ming and later accompanies him into Slaughter City 15 31 36 96 205 209.
• Grandma Su Xi — Shelters Xiao Wu after Xiao Wu rescues her. Her descriptions of Lin Yang help Xiao Wu recognize his kindness beneath his threatening manner 15 31.
• Da Ming and Er Ming — Forest companions whom Xiao Wu regards as her younger brothers. They are protective of her and accept her choice of Lin Yang despite their initial distrust 51 95 96.
• Zhao Wuji — Shrek teacher and affectionate sparring rival. They exchange “big blind bear” and “little bunny brat” insults, but he is deeply worried during her fight against Shadow Cat and saddened by her departure 92 94 95 142.
• Flender — Former dean. Recognizes that Shrek can offer her little further help and permits her early graduation without demanding compensation 95.
• Li Yusong — Conducts her entrance assessment and remembers her warmly when she returns to Shrek 52 141.
• Dugu Yan — Romantic rival and Heaven Dou teammate. Their first encounter becomes a fight, but Xiao Wu later coordinates with her during the danger posed by Tang Hao 97 144 187.
• Oscar and Ma Hongjun — Former schoolmates whom she beats into calling her “Sister Xiao Wu.” Both remain sufficiently intimidated to kneel immediately when she attacks during the tournament 94 141 196.
• Huo Wu — Repeatedly defeated rival. Their similar names contribute to their mutual dislike, and they continue trading insults at the tournament 163 174.
• Ning Rongrong — Shopping companion and fellow guest at Shrek’s founding ceremony 166 171.
• Bibi Dong / Spirit Hall — Target of her blood feud. Lin Yang knows Bibi Dong is the enemy she seeks but initially withholds that identity to prevent a reckless attempt at revenge 53 190.
