Biodata

Power Progression

Appearance

Zyra has an athletic, voluptuous figure and black hair. When she first teaches Lancelot’s class, she wears a tight black-and-red combat suit 177.

• Before her body was remade: Wheat-colored skin and ear-length hair 177.
• After restoration: Her features and figure remained largely unchanged, but her skin became snowy white with a faint sheen 501.
• In combat: Her golden aura can cause her black hair to turn gold 302.

Personality

Zyra is boisterous, confident and quick to tease. She proudly calls herself the King of Martial Arts and enjoys provoking Lancelot, though his teasing can just as readily make her lose her temper 291 402 418. Mona describes her as possessive, and Zyra initially resented Mona’s attention to Lancelot 106.

She is fiercely protective of those close to her. She gave Lancelot a costly safeguard before his mission and was deeply concerned about freeing Mona from the Second Blood Ancestor’s influence 291 369. She also relishes combat, choosing to train by fighting Mo Li rather than remain idle at home 514.

History

Combat instructor and protector

Zyra came to teach Lancelot’s combat class partly to assess the boy whom Mona valued so highly. She selected him and the Blood Clan student Pedas to spar; after Pedas used his bloodline talent, she stopped the match and deducted 100 credits. She then told Lancelot that she and Mona were a couple 178.

Before the Scavenger Operation on Planet Golden Bridge, Zyra gave Lancelot an orb containing her Martial Arts Will. He later activated it during an ambush; her manifested figure attacked a blood-sacrifice barrier but was intercepted by a masked Martial Artist 291 302.

Holy Sword’s tragedy and restoration

Zyra joined the defense of Holy Sword Academy against the Sea Dragon Alliance and Ashes. Using the forbidden Limit Release technique, she fought the Demigod Kudolin alongside Iron Tiger Kamori and Blood Weeper Boros 429. She burned all her flesh and blood and nearly half her soul; Mona saved and pieced together what remained of her soul, while Kamori and Boros fell 430.

Lancelot learned that essence sap from a giant Golden Maple Tree on Golden Star could save Zyra. He fused the Golden Mother Tree’s sap with her soul to remake her body, though her body and soul needed time to adapt before she could recover 439 447.

Blue Dragon campaign

By the campaign against the Blue Dragon Clan, Zyra had reached Demigod and represented Holy Sword Academy’s upper-level combat forces alongside Lancelot 501. During the fighting, she tried to reach him when he was attacked, but Peak Epic True Dragons blocked her path. After the Alliance’s victory, she checked his injuries and received 4,700 military merit points 503 506 507.

Abilities & Skills

Qigong Style and Primordial Qi

Zyra is a battle-hardened Martial Artist who had killed at least twenty or thirty True Dragons, including Thunder Dragons, by the time Lancelot entered the Laurence Secret Realm 424.

• She can coat her fists in Primordial Qi for powerful close-range strikes 302.
• She forms a diamond-shaped qi projectile or fires a barrage of golden projectiles for mid-range attacks 302.
• She can send a strand of Primordial Qi into another person’s body, as she did to wake Lancelot 417.

Martial Arts Will

Zyra gave Lancelot a golden orb containing her Martial Arts Will, which he stored in his mind domain and could activate with mental power 291.

• Zyra said the safeguard could deal with enemies below Epic, but warned him not to provoke opponents who were too strong 291.
• When activated, it manifested a figure of Zyra that fought to interrupt a blood sacrifice 302.

Extreme Path Style: Limit Release

A secret technique superior to Cell Liberation, Limit Release temporarily removes protective mechanisms on the body and soul, greatly increasing willpower and combat strength 429.

• Against Kudolin, it raised the threat Zyra posed to nearly that of an ordinary newly advanced Demigod.
• Its cost is irreversible harm to the user’s potential, making it a technique for desperate situations 429.

Remade body

The Golden Mother Tree’s essence sap gave Zyra’s new body exceptional energy conductivity and affinity. Although initially untempered and weak, it retained a soul at Peak Epic strength and had greatly increased physical talent 447.

Relationships

• Mona Wiggins — Zyra’s closest friend and romantic partner. Zyra was determined to free her from the Second Blood Ancestor’s influence; Mona later saved what remained of Zyra’s soul 178 369 430.
• Lancelot — Initially her student and the object of her jealousy, he became her close ally and romantic partner. He supplied cultivation knowledge, restored her body and fought alongside her in the Blue Dragon campaign 106 369 447 501.
• Urta — Her master and Holy Sword Academy’s dean. They are exceptionally close, and Mona compares him to a grandfather to Zyra 418 420.
• Vermila — An devoted admirer who wanted to become a female Martial Artist like Zyra and repeatedly watched her public battle videos 367.
• Mo Li — Zyra sought her out for a fight as cultivation training 514.
