Xiao Xiao

Biodata

Power Progression

Appearance

• Build and hair: Petite and delicate, with dark green hair 3.
• Voice: Soft and delicate, compared to a kitten’s 5.
• Expressions: Frequently blushes to the tips of her ears when embarrassed, especially around Lin Mo 5 17 32.

Personality

Xiao Xiao is shy and easily embarrassed in social situations. When first approaching Lin Mo, she wrings her hands, avoids his eyes, and barely manages to ask whether they can become acquainted. Nevertheless, she can overcome that hesitation: she later waits outside Zhou Yi’s office and confesses her feelings directly 5 17.

Her quiet manner contrasts with her determination in battle. She initially argues that her support-oriented cauldron can also serve an assault role because it can “smash people to death.” In the assessment final, she stands fearlessly before the Netherworld White Tiger and commits all her Soul Power to protecting her teammates 16 31.

She is also considerate and generous. After learning that Lin Mo has little money, she immediately offers him a thousand gold soul coins, calling it a loan to spare his dignity. Her concern for him is equally immediate when she awakens in the infirmary and notices his bleeding wrist before attending to her own recovery 26 36.

Abilities & Skills

Threelives Soulstabilizing Cauldron

A rare, top-tier tool Martial Soul associated with support, control, suppression, and protection. It can separate into three cauldrons or recombine into one 16 18 19.

• Interception: Blocks attack routes and uses timed retreats and counterstrikes to disrupt an opponent’s assault 18.
• Encirclement: Arranges three cauldrons around an enemy, closing escape routes and preventing them from supporting teammates 24 30.
• Cauldron’s Tremor: Produces overlapping black-and-red ripples that disorient Wu Feng despite her Soul Elder-level enhancement and resistance to negative effects 24.
• Offensive limitation: Although capable of striking opponents, Xiao Xiao is not adept at direct offense. She can contain Zhu Lu during the final but struggles to defeat her outright 30.

State’s Mighty Weapon

A massive, ancient-looking black-and-red cauldron formed by merging all three Soulstabilizing Cauldrons. Its surface bears strange runes and a Mystic Bird totem 25 31.

• Holds a three-ring Soul Elder in place for fifteen seconds after Xiao Xiao receives power from Lin Mo’s Heavenly Might 25.
• Releases Heavenly Might matching Lin Mo’s, stopping the Netherworld White Tiger for three seconds during the final 31.
• Requires substantial expenditure: her earlier use leaves both Soul Power and Spiritual Power overdrawn, while the final’s defense consumes every remaining drop of her Soul Power after Lin Mo transfers half of his to her 26 31.
• Its restraint also catches the invigilator who attempts to rescue her opponent during the earlier match 25.

Ninephoenix Worshipping Flute

Xiao Xiao’s second Martial Soul specializes in support and control. It contains an Azure Luan, which Skydream identifies as a descendant of the Mystic Bird that inherited some of its auspicious Qi 16 19.

• Produces layered musical sound waves; when strengthened by Lin Mo, its music carries faint phoenix cries 25.
• Manifests an emerald-green Azure Luan during her resonance with Lin Mo’s Martial Soul 19.
• According to Skydream, the Azure Luan governs the manifestation of auspiciousness, complementing the cauldron’s suppression and protection 19.

Martial Soul Fusion with Lin Mo

Both of Xiao Xiao’s Martial Souls are compatible with Lin Mo’s Mystic Bird. Skydream attributes this to the cauldron’s connection as its ancient vessel and the Azure Luan’s connection as its descendant. Wang Yan independently confirms their possession of a Martial Soul Fusion Skill 19 20.

• Power of Xiao Mo: Their combined Soul Power reduces consumption and amplifies soul skills 28.
• Contact-based circulation: Physical contact allows Xiao Xiao to transfer Soul Power to Lin Mo and circulate their combined power to recover rapidly 23 31.
• Primary and secondary roles: Lin Mo’s Mystic Bird is the primary partner; Xiao Xiao is the secondary partner 23.
• Undocumented fusion effect: The provided events establish their compatibility but do not name or demonstrate the completed fusion skill’s combat effect 20 28 31.

History

Joining Freshman Class One

Xiao Xiao enters Shrek Academy’s Freshman Class One alongside Lin Mo, Huo Yuhao, and Wang Dong’er. When Lin Mo reveals his Martial Soul during the first running test, both of her Martial Souls react with excitement. His aura feels inexplicably familiar and comforting, prompting her to wonder whether she has fallen in love at first sight 3 4.

She introduces herself afterward and chooses the seat directly in front of him. Over the following three months, she becomes part of the close-knit group formed by Lin Mo, Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong’er, and herself 5 18.

Branch Selection and Confession

Initially, Xiao Xiao selects the assault branch because she does not want to be separated from Lin Mo. After revealing her twin Martial Souls, she accepts Zhou Yi’s advice that control better suits her abilities—and that choosing it will not separate them. Zhou Yi names all four friends seeded contestants and sets the freshman championship as their goal 16.

Xiao Xiao then confesses to Lin Mo. He thanks her but asks that they wait until they are older and focus on improving themselves. Overwhelmed by his closeness and her Martial Souls’ reaction to him, she flees in embarrassment; no romantic relationship is established 17.

Discovering the Mystic Bird Connection

During practice, Xiao Xiao and Huo Yuhao successfully counter Wang Dong’er through coordinated detection and cauldron control. Their subsequent spar against Lin Mo ends unexpectedly when Xiao Xiao’s cauldrons merge, refuse to attack him, and affectionately cling to him instead of obeying her recall 18.

Zhou Yi investigates by having Xiao Xiao and Lin Mo hold hands and circulate Soul Power. Their energies intertwine, they enter an embrace, and both of Xiao Xiao’s Martial Souls manifest. The Mystic Bird restores a totem to the cauldron while an Azure Luan emerges from the flute, leading to confirmation of their Martial Soul Fusion compatibility 19 20.

Freshman Assessment Championship

Originally assigned to Huo Yuhao’s team with Wang Dong’er, Xiao Xiao helps achieve a perfect preliminary record. Zhou Yi rewards each member with a Soul-Solidifying Pill. Lin Mo subsequently joins the active lineup, and Xiao Xiao’s cauldron control helps defeat Ning Tian, Wu Feng, and Nanmen Yun’er’s team 15 22 23 24.

In a later match, she holds off a three-ring Soul Elder long enough for Wang Dong’er to prepare a decisive attack, but exhausts both her Soul Power and Spiritual Power. Lin Mo feeds her his golden-red blood in the infirmary, restoring both completely. Unnoticed by either of them, a bead of his blood forms a thread-like connection between his wrist and her hand 25 26.

After the semifinal victory, Lin Mo selects Xiao Xiao and Huo Yuhao for the final. She contains Zhu Lu, then uses State’s Mighty Weapon to delay the Netherworld White Tiger while her teammates perform Martial Soul Fusion. Their victory secures the freshman assessment championship 27 28 30 31 32.

Core Disciple Recognition and Rewards

Xiao Xiao’s performance and resolve against the three-ring Soul Elder earn her a place among the Martial Soul Department’s core disciples. The appointment is formally announced after the championship 29 33.

At the celebration, she declines to join the Tang Sect after Lin Mo refuses its invitation. She later accepts the team’s Wild Soul Bone only after Lin Mo rejects it and both Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong’er encourage her to take it 33 34.

Equipment & Items

• Wild Soul Bone: A championship reward that boosts speed and provides a physical attack. Her teammates consider its mobility especially useful for safely operating her two tool Martial Souls. She stores it rather than being shown absorbing it 34.
• Soul storage tool: Used to put away the Wild Soul Bone 34.
• Soul-Solidifying Pill: Received from Zhou Yi for the assessment team’s perfect preliminary record 22.

Relationships

• Lin Mo — Close friend, romantic interest, team captain, and Martial Soul Fusion partner. He postpones her confession rather than accepting a relationship, later heals her with his blood, and receives her financial help 17 20 26 28 36.
• Wang Dong’er — Roommate, friend, and assessment teammate. They practice together, share the championship celebration, and jointly carry the injured Huo Yuhao to the infirmary 18 27 32 37.
• Huo Yuhao — Friend and teammate whose Spiritual Detection Sharing greatly improves her cauldron placement. She bets a thousand gold soul coins on his victory over Wu Feng 18 24 35.
• Zhou Yi — Homeroom teacher who guides her into the control branch, selects her as a seeded contestant, and initiates the investigation into her connection with Lin Mo 16 19.
• Wang Yan — Academy teacher who confirms her Martial Soul Fusion compatibility with Lin Mo 20.
