Wenqi is a student of Wellston and one of its many bullies. She is loyal to a group of strong mid-tiers who bully low-tiers, especially to her close friend, Illena.
Appearance[]
Wenqi is a girl of average height with straight neck-length blonde hair and golden eyes. She wears a typical girls uniform without the vest.
Her eyes glow bright yellow when her ability is activated.
Personality[]
Wenqi is among Wellston's strongest mid-tiers who bully weaker students and use them to complete assignments.[1] She, like many other mid-tiers, holds a level of animosity against the higher tiers but knows better than to directly challenge one. Despite this, Wenqi was fully supportive of Illena's actions against Seraphina and has even justified her actions.
Plot[]
Suspension[]
Wenqi, along with Tanner and Illena were hoping to use John for target practice after hearing that Seraphina was gone. However, the trio never got to lay a finger on John as Doctor Darren scared them off with his Nightmare ability. [2]
True Colours[]
Wenqi rushes up to John
Wenqi, Tanner, Illena, and a new accomplice, Rouker, encountered John again in hopes to beat him up. She, along with Illena and Rouker, were shocked to see John retaliate and break Tanner's arm. [3] In a fit of rage, Wenqi and Illena charged towards John and overwhelmed him with her speed. After seeing that Illena injured her arm on Arlo's Barrier, Wenqi rushed to her friend's aid and witnessed Wellston's King force Tanner into submission. [4]
Secrets[]
Wenqi is seen talking to Illena, regarding Seraphina loss of ability.[5]
Capture[]
After facing humiliating defeat at the hands of a powerless Seraphina, Hower and numerous other bullies ambushed Seraphina. Wenqi was one of the bullies seen dragging the Ace away.[6]
Once within the safe confines of the abandoned house, Wenqi watched as Illena tortured Seraphina[7] and stood by her friend's side. Wenqi then suggested to Illena that they should give Seraphina a chance to fight for her freedom, an idea that Illena agreed to. Without her abilities, Seraphina battled and lost to Illena and Misa and was left in the abandoned house overnight.[8]
The bullies reconvened in the abandoned house the next day, and Illena continued to mock Seraphina. Not fully satisfied with last night, Illena proceeded to humiliate Seraphina further and attempted to get the former Ace to say "I am the most worthless student in Wellston, and I will act as such."[9] Seraphina refused to say those words and Illena continued to mercilessly mock and beat Seraphina to a point where other bullies began to see it as "excessive."
Wenqi defends Illena
Wenqi disagreed with her fellow bullies and continued to support Illena up until Arlo and Elaine entered the house. Wenqi wisely kept silent as Arlo threatened to report the incident to the Headmaster and tried her best to hold Illena back when her friend attempted to attack the King. When their companions began to blame Illena for taking things too far, she shot back that they all agreed to this.
Wenqi charges towards Joker
Her day would only get worse when a masked attacker entered the house.[10] After the attacker knocked-out Illena with a single kick, Wenqi attempted to prevent further harm by charging towards the attacker with her Speed. She would be knocked out after having her face grabbed and getting slammed headfirst into the ground.[11]
Joker[]
Wenqi was among the students who were punished with a two week suspension for the plot against Seraphina.[12] When she returned to school, she and everybody involved with the kidnapping incident decided it would be best not to draw attention to themselves for a while.[13] Presumably, her wounds healed during the interim.
Powers & Abilities[]
Speed: Wenqi's Speed allows her to move at a much faster velocity than the eye can perceive. This gives her the element of surprise, as well as stronger attacks and the ability to evade others' attacks more easily. During the ability's debut, Speed surrounded Wenqi's body in a red aura, while in Chapter 130, the aura colour is changed to Wenqi's signature colour, yellow.
