Personality
Shui Yue'er is straightforward, carefree, and frank in conversation. Her hospitality is immediate: after meeting Xiao Yao and Xiao Wu, she invites them to stay at her nearby home rather than find a hotel. She openly appreciates handsome men, though she prefers someone rugged and forceful over Xiao Yao’s looks 22.
She enjoys teasing her older sister, particularly about romance. Recognizing how carefully Shui Bing'er normally maintains her distance from others, she immediately notices when Bing'er allows Xiao Yao to address her by name. Her playful theatrics also surface when she must surrender her usual sleeping place, acting deeply wronged even after agreeing to leave 22 31.
Her bluntness can become unkind. While helping with admissions, she mocks an applicant’s appearance and proposes using a successful dinner invitation as proof that the applicant meets Skywater Academy’s beauty requirement 27.
Equipment / Items
- Unnamed secret weapon — Given to her by her father. Shui Yue'er says she always carries it when going out, citing it as reassurance when Shui Bing'er warns her about her carefree outings. Its form and effects are not revealed 22.
Relationships
- Shui Bing'er — Older sister and closest companion since childhood. Shui Yue'er understands Bing’er’s reserved nature and regularly teases her. She shares Bing’er’s private dormitory room to avoid living in a cramped four-person room 22 31.
- Xiao Yao — An acquaintance she welcomes warmly and judges favorably after Bing'er explains his considerate behavior. Although she finds him handsome, he is not her preferred type 22.
- Shui Lingji — Xiao Yao’s disguised identity at Skywater Academy. Shui Yue'er initially doubts Lingji’s claimed qualifications and later reluctantly gives up her place in Bing’er’s room so Lingji can stay overnight 27 31.
Story Role / Major Arcs
Meeting Xiao Yao
Gu Sanshui brings Shui Yue'er and Shui Bing'er together with Xiao Yao and Xiao Wu in Heavenly Dou City. Over a restaurant meal, Shui Yue'er offers to recommend the visitors to Skywater Academy if they met its water-attribute and female-only requirements. Her later invitation to stay at her house is politely declined so the sisters can spend time with their family 22.
After the visitors leave, she questions Bing’er about her unusually familiar behavior toward Xiao Yao. Bing’er denies romantic interest but praises his courtesy, prompting Yue’er to agree that he is a good person 22.
Skywater Academy Admissions
Shui Yue'er helps handle applicants during the academy’s annual admissions. When eight-year-old Shui Lingji claims to meet the entry requirements, Yue’er doubts that someone so young could already exceed rank twenty. She compares Lingji with an eight-year-old at the neighboring academy who possessed innate full Soul Power but had reached only rank eighteen. Shui Bing'er takes Lingji inside for a private assessment 27.
Displaced for a Night
When Bing’er invites Lingji to stay overnight, Shui Yue'er protests being sent away from the room she normally shares with her sister. She eventually accepts Bing’er’s explanation that Lingji knows no one else there, leaving with an exaggerated air of grievance 31.
