Wuxia (武俠), which literally means "martial heroes", is a genre of Chinese fiction concerning the adventures of martial artists in ancient China.

The heroes in wuxia fiction typically do not serve a lord, wield military power, or belong to the aristocratic class. They often originate from the lower social classes of ancient Chinese society. A code of chivalry usually requires wuxia heroes to right and redress wrongs, fight for righteousness, remove oppressors, and bring retribution for past misdeeds. Chinese xia traditions can be compared to martial codes from other cultures, such as the Japanese samurai bushido.

In contrast to Xianxia, Wuxia stories are based on real-life martial arts and cultivation of qi, which lead characters to have extraordinary strength. Xianxia on the other hand, is more fantastical and characters cultivate through Taoist practices.

Note: It is difficult to categorize Wuxia and Xianxia without haven't experienced the show, so there's likely some overlap or ambiguity in this Stack.
