Guan Xing



"Oh, that's Guan Xing. He's from the old Han dynasty, which happened centuries ago in the past... well, in China. Back when my village was just an old trading post, maybe he woudl've visited it there so that my ancestors would've be safe by now... and then. But now that he's back from the dead, I think he'll be piloting this big baby up."

--Su Ji-Hoon, The Return of Seth

Guan Xing (onyomi: Kan Kō) is one of Guan Yu's sons and is thought to be Guan Ping's younger brother. Historically, he succeeded his father after his death and fathered two sons, Guan Tong and Guan Yi. Zhuge Liang held high hopes for him and, after Ma Liang was killed in battle, deemed him one of his possible successors while Guan Xing was in his twenties. His activities outside of being an official and after this are vague and he is written to have died several years later from unknown causes. Romance of the Three Kingdoms glorifies a fictional kinship between him and Zhang Bao, and expands his military service.

Prior to his playable Dynasty Warriors appearance, he was a Shu NPC since the series's second title. During Guan Xing's playable debut, he is considered the middle brother of the Guan siblings. He ranked twenty-third place in Gamecity's Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends popularity poll. The latest poll for the eighth installment puts him in fifty-second. The character poll for overseas fans puts him in sixteenth place for the Shu division. His Dynasty Warriors counterpart also has an image song titled Heart Beat.

After his betrayal, he run away and surrendered to the Southern Song Dynasty and their Chinese allies,which they spared and chosen him as one of Southern Song Dynasty newest generals for reasonables,according to Liu Bei's USRAC War-era quotes.
