Author's Commentary #629:
Time to talk about Chapter 629: Spotlight #14: Hui.
Considering she's gotten the least focus out of all the Chinese SPCMs, I felt Hui deserved to get some spotlight. I'll admit, I myself honestly forgot about her a few times considering she's the only Chinese SPCM that doesn't appear in Season 7. Had her rating been higher, she likely would have replaced Tao on the women's team.
As for Hui herself, martial arts have always been her main passion. She's long been a fan of martial arts movies, especially ones with female leads. Though her chess isn't anything special, she's a prodigy when it comes to martial arts.
Upon mastering everything, she then further challenged herself by trying to master everything in heels. The path to mastery was long and fraught with many injuries, but she persisted and became a martial artist that could be considered one of the greatest. In terms of leg strength, she's able to sky walk by kicking the air, eliminating the need for jogs in order to get in a morning workout.
In terms of fashion, she'll typically be spotted sporting a red sleeveless dress and matching heels, though she does have other clothes. While at college, she'll typically opt for a drastically more casual look consisting of a red hoodie, sneakers, and black yoga pants. She also unties her hair and lets it droop down, though naturally the front half of her head is still completely bald, even though the back half now has more hair to veil it.
Before I end this, a little update on series plans. For this first batch of character spotlights, I feel like I'll only do 6 more before finishing the special feature and jumping into Side Story 9. After Side Story 9, I'm not sure of what I'll do, but I feel it will more likely than not be more story-focused content.
That's all for this commentary. I hope you enjoyed it.
