Background
Ye Xiu’s origins within Happy are unclear; however, at the age of 15, he ran away from home to play games (not related to “Glory”). During ten years of absence, he returned home several times, but due to family disapproval of his gaming career, he often left in frustration.
“Glory” is an online game in the novel featuring a total of 24 professions. The game’s high maneuverability allows for a significant influence of operational skills and competitiveness. When Ye Xiu left home on December 3, the game had just launched. He was among the first players to log in at midnight, and under the character name One Autumn Leaf, he became famous within a month due to his undefeated streak in solo matches. Over the years, he rose to a legendary status. Due to uncertainties surrounding his identity, he used his younger brother’s ID card to register as a professional player, later achieving top-tier status within “Glory”. Due to his expertise across all professions, Ye Xiu was colloquially known as the Encyclopedia of Glory.
Appearance and Attire
Ye Xiu has a slightly pale complexion, often looking somewhat sickly due to frequent late nights. He presents a slightly disheveled appearance, with exceptionally beautiful hands—thin fingers, clearly defined joints, and tidy nails. He is a heavy smoker, and his smoking style has become a hallmark of his character, causing smoke to drift effortlessly without affecting his speech.
Personality Traits
Ye Xiu is blunt in his speech, especially when he assesses his own abilities while pointing out others’ shortcomings. His honesty often leads to humorous or aggravating responses. He has a talent for juxtaposing serious remarks with sudden whimsical comments, showcasing his sharp wit. Regardless of facing difficulties or pondering solutions, he appears laid-back, exhibiting little fatigue even after long hours. When he is serious, he focuses intensely, remaining undisturbed by external distractions.
He exhibits immense patience, taking the time to teach newcomers and team members without holding back, fully dedicating his efforts to their learning.
Abilities
In “Glory”, characters reach Level 20 and must transition to a specific profession. Before reaching this level, they are considered to have no profession and can learn skills from all professions without restrictions as long as they have sufficient skill points. This allows players to explore various play styles and choose a profession that interests them at level 20, with the system refunding their skill points for a new start. Consequently, Ye Xiu, as a free agent, was able to master all skills without transitioning.

Combat Style
Ye Xiu operates confidently and calmly, possessing a deep understanding of all 24 professions in “Glory”. His combat techniques are highly refined, making him a true all-rounder—often referred to as the academic model of the game (excluding task-related content). He designs strategies based on the attributes of different characters, ensuring real-time effectiveness during combat rather than solely focusing on aesthetics or enjoyment. His tactical approach is aimed at high efficiency while minimizing errors in execution, leading to devastating outcomes against his opponents.
Relationships
Ye Chen: Ye Xiu’s identical twin brother. As Ye Xiu had no ID due to leaving home, he used Ye Chen’s ID to participate in competitions, with few knowing his true name. Ye Xiu qualified for competitions under his brother’s identity until the eighth contest when he finally used his own name.
Moqing: Ye Xiu met Moqing in a net café after leaving home, and they quickly became good friends and strong partners within the game for three years. Tragically, Moqing passed away in a car accident before they could achieve glory together.
Mochan: Moqing’s younger sister. Due to her brother’s relationship with Ye Xiu, they have been acquainted for over a decade. After Moqing’s passing, Ye Xiu has supported Mochan, who aims to be a supporting player by Ye Xiu’s side, becoming one of his strongest allies in competitions.
Dao Xian: Ye Xiu initially met Dao Xian while gaming at the net café. After the formation of the Glory alliance, Dao Xian founded the Happy team, inviting Ye Xiu and Moqing to join. With Ye Xiu’s help, the team achieved tremendous success, but due to his reluctance to indulge in business interests, their relationship grew distant.
Achievements
Ye Xiu led the Happy team to become the first and only team in the history of “Glory” to win three consecutive seasonal championships in professional tournaments. He also holds the record for being the most valuable player (MVP) in multiple seasonal tournaments.
Notably, he has made a name for himself in various competitive rankings and has achieved the highest character level milestone at Level 50.
