Jia Xuanxuan

Biodata

Background / History

Jia Xuanxuan comes from a wealthy family whose business is the Food Flavor Pavilion restaurant chain. Preparations to enter one of the Four Greats began in middle school, well before the university entrance examinations 5 20.

During their second year of high school, Lu Yuan wrote Jia Xuanxuan a love letter and was rejected. That history initially made later interactions awkward: when Lu Yuan followed Jia Xuanxuan home to seek financial help, his behavior was mistaken for another romantic advance 5.

Appearance

• Fair complexion and beauty: Described as the class beauty and regarded by classmates as the school’s wealthy, beautiful “goddess” before Xiao Bing’s rise to fame 5 48.
• Clothing: Wears a skirt during the walk home when Lu Yuan follows after school 5.

Personality

Jia Xuanxuan is direct about personal boundaries, firmly rejecting Lu Yuan’s presumed romantic pursuit and keeping him outside the bedroom to avoid school gossip. Nevertheless, a sense of responsibility as class monitor prompts practical help once Lu Yuan asks about university preparation 5 6.

Pride and insecurity coexist with that helpfulness. Despite strong True Essence by the school’s standards, Jia Xuanxuan worries about qualifying for the Four Greats. Jia Shengnan’s repeated attempts to encourage a match with Lu Yuan are embarrassing and provoke open resentment 6 13 47.

Jia Xuanxuan can also be playful and supportive. After reconciling with Lu Yuan, the two joke freely during an evening walk; on testing day, Jia Xuanxuan supplies him with a rare tonic and offers reassurance about his written examination 47 48.

Abilities & Skills

True Essence

Jia Xuanxuan’s reported True Essence of slightly over 120 ling places the student among Ningcheng No. 1 High School’s strongest university candidates 5 24.

• This does not guarantee admission to the Four Greats: Jia Xuanxuan states that their usual consideration threshold exceeds 140 ling, with an additional entrance test also required 6.
• No cultivation technique, combat ability, or subsequent increase in Jia Xuanxuan’s True Essence is documented in the supplied chapters.

Examination Preparation

Jia Xuanxuan has access to preparation materials and knowledge about True Essence testing 5 6.

• Explains that diet, sleep, exercise, and mindset can improve a test reading by a few points 6.
• Distinguishes ordinary test preparation from expensive medicines that raise True Essence and are unavailable on the open market 6.
• Provides Lu Yuan with photocopied study materials 6.

Equipment / Items

• True Essence preparation materials — Shared with Lu Yuan during his first visit to the Jia residence 5 6.
• Spirit-Raising Water — A tonic obtained with difficulty by Jia Shengnan. Jia Xuanxuan gives Lu Yuan a leftover bottle, saying further consumption would provide no personal benefit. It temporarily raises Lu Yuan’s displayed True Essence from 130/130 to 131/130; that observed effect does not establish Jia Xuanxuan’s own numerical gain 48.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Helping Lu Yuan Prepare

• Lu Yuan initially approaches Jia Xuanxuan hoping to borrow money for his mother’s treatment, but cannot bring himself to ask. Instead, he improvises a request for university advice 5.

Reconciliation and Testing Day
