Xiaoyu has placed in multiple "hottest character" lists and has been said to represent strong female characters in video games.Ī sixteen-year-old Chinese martial artist, Ling Xiaoyu was tutored by her grandfather, Wang Jinrei, from a young age. He believed that she could achieve true greatness yet he became frustrated by her careless attitude. While vacationing in Hong Kong with her family, she noticed a yacht named "Mishima Zaibatsu." Knowing that the Mishima Zaibatsu was rich and powerful, she decided to seek out Heihachi Mishima and make her dream of owning an amusement park a reality. Abandoning her family, Xiaoyu stowed away on the ship but was found by security, who informed Heihachi of her presence, but by the time Heihachi arrived, all of the Tekken Force, Heihachi’s personal security force, had been beaten and were strewn about the deck. During the chaos, Heihachi found Xiaoyu and threatened to beat him up if he did not accept her challenge. Amused by her juvenile antics, Heihachi promised to build her theme park if she won his tournament. She moved into the Mishima Zaibatsu's Japan complex and enrolled at the Mishima Polytechnic School, where she met both Heihachi's grandson, Jin Kazama, and Miharu Hirano. Bringing along her old school's trained panda (aptly named " Panda"), Heihachi taught her (Panda) to fight, much like he had taught Kuma, so that Xiaoyu would have a bodyguard. This encouraged Xiaoyu to see Heihachi as something of a grandfather toward her.Īfter the King of Iron Fist Tournament 3, Xiaoyu continued to live, study, and train as a ward of the Mishima Zaibatsu, but her life became boring and mundane, lacking any particular goals. Two years later, Xiaoyu was delivered an anonymous e-mail admonishing her not to trust Heihachi. The anonymous individual warned her that Heihachi posed an immediate danger to her life. At this time, Xiaoyu was a junior at the Mishima Polytechnic School and had become sick of her daily routines, but receiving this mysterious e-mail rejuvenated Xiaoyu’s passionate spirit. Xiaoyu replied to the e-mail several times, and although she was not contacted by the sender again, Xiaoyu became convinced that Jin, who had been missing since the previous tournament, had sent it to her. Around this same time, Heihachi announced the King of the Iron Fist Tournament 4. Hoping to reconnect with Jin and unmask the Mishima Zaibatsu’s evil deeds, Xiaoyu decided to enter the tournament.Īt the end of the fourth tournament, Xiaoyu was rescued from the evil plans of Heihachi by Yoshimitsu, who then told her about the tragic history of the Mishima family. She was later saddened when hearing about Heihachi's apparent death at Hon-Maru.
