Guan Yu [Real name: Aisha]

With the ambition to bring peace to the world, she went on a journey of training, but one day she met Zhang Fei and they swore to be sisters. After that, she made friends with Zhao Yun, Zhuge Liang, Ma Chao, and Huang Zhong, and spent her days fighting bandits who were trying to bring chaos to the world. She has a strong sense of honor and a serious personality, and is characterized by her soft, shiny skin!

Zhang Fei [real name: Suzuzu]

She gathered the bad boys from the village and called them the "Zhang Fei Bandit Gang" and caused all kinds of mischief, but after being persuaded by Guan Yu, they swore to be sisters and began traveling together. Although she is strong-willed, she is also spoiled and jealous. Despite her small size, she has great strength and is a big eater. Maybe her real body is not the tiger badge on her head...

Ma Chao [Real name: Green]
