Guang Yu was a military general under Lui Bei during the late Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms Period of ancient China, and his life and achievements were so extolled and glorified that he was deified during the Sui Dynasty, emphasizing his exploits further in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and becoming one of the main examples of loyalty and righteousness, receiving worship even today and receiving names such as "Emperor Guan" or "Lord Guan". Together with Zhang Fei shared a brotherly relationship with Lui Bei, and accompanied him on some of his early exploits. Weight: 9 kg.
