GENERAL/STORY:

A high spirited young girl studying ancient Chinese martial arts. Her instructor is Wang. Ling was a junior at Mishima High School. She still lived, studied and trained as a ward of the Mishima Zaibatsu. But lacking any particular goals, Ling grew tired of her everyday routines. However, one day, she received an anonymous e-mail that warned her of Heihachi's evil intentions and the danger to her life. Ling replied to the e-mail, but she did not receive any further messages from the anonymous individual. Ling’s intuition told her that Jin, who had been missing since the last Tournament, could have sent the message. She believed the message and started to suspect Heihachi and the Mishima Zaibatsu. Upon hearing the announcement of the next Tournament, Ling made the decision to enter hoping to be reunited with Jin and to unveil the truth behind Heihachi and the Mishima Zaibatsu.

Ling Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Heihachi had not truly died. However, as head of the Mishima Zaibatsu, Jin Kazama aims to take Heihachi's life. Xiaoyu was going to try and stop Jin herself, but the Zaibatsu pushed towards militarization, making it difficult to approach Jin. The Mishima Zaibatsu's declaration of war drew hostility from around the globe. When the King of Iron Fist Tournament 6 is announced, Ling Xiaoyu enters in the hope that she can save Jin’s soul from evil.

REVIEW:
Ling debuted in Tekken 3 as a unique character both in looks & fighting style. Ling's fighting style is graceful and simply beautiful (in the hands of a skilled player) and of which is one of the most dynamic and "fun" fighting styles in the Tekken series in my opinion. 

Winning a match with Ling is ever so rewarding when you can destroy lesser skilled players in such a beautiful and graceful manner... Ling also has some priceless taunts, cool outfits, and a funny/cute personality. Tekken just wouldn't be the same without her.
