Definition
热血 literally means 'warm blood', but in modern Chinese it is used figuratively to describe passionate enthusiasm, fighting spirit, or idealism—especially in heroic, patriotic, or self-sacrificial contexts. It often modifies young people (热血青年) and is associated with a strong sense of justice or willingness to fight for a cause.
