Background / History

Human Transformation and Meeting Xiao Yao

Xiao Wu leaves the Star Dou Great Forest because transformed Soul Beasts must interact with humans to cultivate further. Her transformation requires her to rebuild her strength from the beginning, while her retained hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring and Soul Bone make discovery by powerful Soul Masters dangerous 1 2.

Xiao Yao recognizes her near a pool and forms his first Heavenly Book contract when she answers her name. He then invents a story about a lost younger sister and persuades Xiao Wu to become his little sister. His gift of aura-concealing shoes reveals that he already knows her true identity, but his promise to protect her earns her trust 1 2.

She initially plans to obtain a village work-study place at a Soul Master academy. Xiao Yao persuades her to abandon that route, and the pair instead register at Nuoding City’s Spirit Hall branch and establish a home in the city 4 5.

Nuoding City and the New Soul Tournament

Their rank-fourteen Soul Power attracts Ma Xiunuo’s recruitment efforts. Xiao Yao declines his offer, while Xiao Wu later rejects Yu Xiaogang’s invitation to become his disciple, insisting that she will remain with Xiao Yao 5 7.

Xiao Wu joins Xiao Yao and Tang San in representing Nuoding City at the New Soul tournament. In the final, she avoids Gu Sanshui’s Water Arrows until his Soul Power falls, closes the distance, and knocks him unconscious with a Waist Bow-enhanced kick. Nuoding City wins the tournament 9 12 13.

The pair decline to enter higher-level rounds because those competitions require joining Spirit Hall. Xiao Wu will not join an organization whose Pope, Bibi Dong, is responsible for her mother’s death 13.

Journey to Heaven Dou City

After a year and a half of cultivation, Xiao Wu receives her complete Martial Soul Evolution Set. When Xiao Yao’s attempt to refine the Fallen Heart Flame becomes dangerous, she enters the burning room to help him. Following the incident, her Soul Power reaches rank twenty-five 13 14.

On their journey to Heaven Dou City, they encounter Qian Renxue and a grieving female Holy Wing of Light. Xiao Wu uses Charm to make the bird perceive its dead mate, allowing Xiao Yao to resolve the encounter through the Heavenly Book 15 16.

The pair subsequently confront a Wild Vajra Ape in Vajra Canyon. Xiao Wu detects its ambush, pushes Xiao Yao out of danger, and combines Charm and Waist Bow with his flame attacks. During the journey, she also learns the Soft Bone: Yoga Chapter and helps persuade Qian Renxue to practice it 18 20.

Heaven Dou Royal Academy

Using the token Qian Renxue provides, Xiao Wu and Xiao Yao apply to Heaven Dou Royal Academy. Her admission test astonishes the faculty: she is only seven years and eight months old, possesses rank-twenty-five Soul Power, and has a second ring just short of a thousand years 21 23 24.

Meng Shenji, Bai Baoshan, and Zhi Lin compete to accept her as a disciple, but she makes her choice conditional on Xiao Yao’s. After settling into a villa, she regularly uses the academy’s training facilities and establishes her reputation through demonstrations of strength, earning the nickname “Heaven Dou goddess” 25 26.

Xiao Yao’s prolonged absences become a source of conflict. She objects when he neglects to visit for over a month, then protests his proposed two-month journey. When he finally returns after three and a half months, she confronts him for breaking his promise 32 33 48.

Appearance

• Everyday clothing: Introduced in a pink dress; later returns to her usual short-skirted outfit while traveling 1 14.
• Build: Distinguished by exceptionally long legs. She reaches approximately 1.6 meters in height at seven and a half years old 1 13.
• Rabbit-ear headpiece: Its ears perk up, droop, and otherwise move with her mood; the Mind-Concentrating Rabbit Ears preserve this feature 2.
• Martial Soul Possession: Lengthens her legs, surrounds her rabbit ears with pink light, and gives her eyes a red tint 3 24.
• Evolution equipment: Uses a white-and-pink outfit together with her rabbit-ear headpiece and aura-concealing shoes 13.

Personality

Xiao Wu is combative, confident, and eager to show off. She looks forward to fighting other young Soul Masters, enjoys the audience’s attention during the New Soul tournament, and is disappointed when academy students withdraw before she can challenge them. She particularly enjoys battles in which she holds the advantage 9 12 23.

Her mischief can be calculated rather than impulsive. When Tang San seeks sympathy for his injured hand, she pretends to find a poisonous splinter and cooperates with Xiao Yao’s false-antidote scheme. In combat, she can also exercise patience, as shown when she conserves energy against Gu Sanshui rather than rushing through his ranged attacks 10 12.

She is fiercely attached to Xiao Yao and repeatedly refuses opportunities that would separate them. Although she eventually helps him build rapport with other women, she remains sensitive to being neglected or left behind 7 20 25 32 33.

Her attachment to her own kind is evident when she becomes furious at a Netherworld Wolf tormenting a wounded Soft Bone Rabbit. She also retains friends in the Star Dou Great Forest and wants to return to visit them 3 14.
