Background / History
Transmigration and the Zodiac Temple
Chu Ye transmigrated into the world of Peerless Tang Sect fifteen years before the opening chapter. He initially wanted a peaceful life, but regarded Tang San’s control over the era—and the difficulty of attaining godhood outside Tang San’s plans—as obstacles to his future 1.
After activating the Fate System, he began earning Fate Points by changing the destinies of people from the original story. He used his clone-creation ability and the Twelve Talismans to establish the secretive Zodiac Temple, whose operations generated Fate Points while his original body remained at Shrek Academy 1.
Before the main events, he had already become the Outer Court’s most notorious troublemaker. Although qualified for the Inner Court, he refused admission because he did not want to join the Shrek Inspection Corps. Xuan Zi interpreted this refusal as fear of confronting Evil Soul Masters 10.
Shrek Academy Collapse Plan
Chu Ye launched the Shrek Academy Collapse Plan through his clones. Wu Horse healed Huo Yuhao and directed him toward Shrek, while You Rooster and Mao Rabbit attacked the academy. During the disturbance, Chu Ye remained beside Sea God Lake and appeared to defend Wang Dong against Si Snake and Wu Horse, despite both attackers being his own clones 1 3 4 6.
Si Snake knocked him unconscious, allowing Wu Horse to remove the Sea God’s imprint from Wang Dong’s Sea of Consciousness. Shrek’s leadership later treated Chu Ye’s apparent stand against two Titled Douluo as evidence of exceptional courage 6 11.
The larger deception brought Tang San’s statue to life and led both the God of Destruction and Shrek’s defenders to attack Tang San. Chu Ye received a million-point reward for that scheme alone; the system displayed a total balance of 1,320,000 Fate Points afterward 9.
Statue Incident and Teaching Appointment
Zhulong nominated Chu Ye for the Inner Court, but Chu Ye disrupted the planned commendation by placing a statue of himself on the empty pedestal formerly occupied by Tang San’s statue. He defended the act by comparing his achievements with Tang San’s at the same age and declaring that he had merely installed his statue ahead of his eventual godhood 10 11 12.
Brought before the Sea God Pavilion, he criticized Shrek’s stagnation and argued that the academy needed to learn from the Sun Moon Empire’s Soul Tool development. Mu En revoked his Inner Court admission but appointed him a teaching assistant with authority over students throughout the Outer Court. Chu Ye negotiated compensation worth twice that of a standard Inner Court disciple 13 14.
He then challenged Zhou Yi’s treatment of Freshman Class One. Every student chose his instruction over hers. After defeating their coordinated hundred-person attack, he assigned twenty laps rather than Zhou Yi’s hundred and framed the exercise as training conviction rather than blind obedience 15 16 17.
Under his guidance, Class One began challenging other classes and eventually second-year students. Although teachers complained about the disorder, Du Weilun acknowledged that the freshmen’s practical combat ability had improved substantially 24 30.
Founding the Spirit Pagoda
Chu Ye created Wei Goat, a level 98 Titled Douluo, to lead the Spirit Pagoda. Wei Goat approached Di Tian with a proposal: treatment for the Silver Dragon King in exchange for the Star Dou Great Forest’s cooperation with the Soul Spirit Plan 18.
Chu Ye intended the organization to change the continent’s future through equal contracts between Soul Masters and Soul Spirits. His proposed system also allowed Soul Spirits to pass through successive generations of a family. These reforms served both Soul Beast interests and his need for large-scale sources of Fate Points 23.
Mu En selected Chu Ye to lead Shrek’s students to the Spirit Pagoda’s founding ceremony. Although his first Martial Soul already had six rings, his ringless Body Martial Soul made him eligible to obtain a Soul Spirit. Chu Ye nevertheless insisted that the academy offer payment for the assignment 24.
Ma Xiaotao’s Treatment and Further Plans
When Ma Xiaotao lost control beside Sea God Lake, Chu Ye suppressed her Phoenix Roaring Sky Strike and subdued her in one move. He obtained three Spirit Ascension Pills from Yan Shaozhe as compensation, then gave them to Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao 27 28.
He subsequently began treating Ma Xiaotao’s Evil Fire with Ultimate Fire. The first session improved the purity of her flames, reduced their influence on her mind, and earned him 50,000 Fate Points. Mu En later approved a Golden Ancient Tree cultivation session as payment for his contribution 29 30.
Meanwhile, Chu Ye and his clones planned to obtain the Snow Empress Embryo inside a Level 9 God Sealing Platform. Si Snake agreed to seize it before its planned auction in Shrek City; the provided events do not show the acquisition taking place 30.
Appearance
- Build and features: Tall and upright, with ruggedly handsome features and a roguish edge 15.
- Uniform: Had “Shrek” embroidered on the back of his school uniform; his clones joked that this was to make the academy clean up his messes 9.
- Expression: Often maintains a relaxed smile even when provoking academy authorities or facing apparent danger 11 12.
Personality
Chu Ye is theatrical, irreverent, and deliberately provocative. He treats Shrek’s maxim—“Those who don’t dare cause trouble are mediocre”—as permission to challenge authority, while presenting his own disruptions as exemplary school loyalty. His confidence in attaining godhood repeatedly exasperates Wang Dong, Yan Shaozhe, and his other companions 9 12 24.
His misconduct is usually calculated. He cultivates the image of a dependable senior while secretly directing the Zodiac Temple, and he routinely negotiates rewards for work the academy expects him to perform. Fate Points matter more to him than conventional prizes: he gives away Spirit Ascension Pills that are useless to him while valuing the loyalty and altered destinies they help secure 9 14 24 28 29.
As a teacher, he promotes resistance to bullying rather than obedience to stronger people. He encourages students to challenge superior opponents, rewards initiative, and rejects Zhou Yi’s use of strength to intimidate freshmen. His methods remain demanding and mischievous, including inviting the entire class to attack him before sending them running with flames on their heads 15 16 17.
Abilities & Skills
Fate System
The Fate System rewards Chu Ye for interfering with the destinies and paths of characters from the original story 1.
- Fate Points: Can purchase goods from the system shop and strengthen abilities 1.
- Clone creation: Ordinary clones cost little, while Titled Douluo-level clones require much greater expenditure 15.
- Major rewards: Influencing Huo Yuhao’s interest in the Zodiac Temple and removing Wang Dong’s Sea God imprint each earned 100,000 points 9.
- Upgrade limits: Creating Wei Goat cost nearly 300,000 points; raising that clone from level 98 to level 99 would have required approximately another 300,000 18.
Ultimate Fire
His first Martial Soul is the Ultimate Fire element, equipped with six Soul Rings 1 24.
- Calamity Ash Flame Dragon: His sixth soul skill produces a scorching dragon-shaped blast 6.
- Fine control: Placed small flames on every student’s head during the class siege. He stated that they would last two hours or extinguish once the students finished twenty laps 16.
- Flame suppression: Overpowered Ma Xiaotao’s Evil Fire without lighting up his Soul Rings 27.
- Treatment: Gradually suppresses Ma Xiaotao’s Evil Fire, purifies her flames, and reduces its mental effects. The first treatment did not establish a permanent cure 29.
Body Martial Soul
Chu Ye’s second Martial Soul is a Body Martial Soul, but its specific bodily manifestation has not been revealed 24.
- Has no attached Soul Rings when Shrek selects him for the Spirit Pagoda ceremony 24.
- Leaves him with six available ring slots at his current cultivation level 24.
Twelve Zodiac Diagram
His third Martial Soul carries the origins of the Twelve Talismans 1.
- Cannot have Soul Rings attached 1.
- Lets his original body draw on some talisman abilities even after the talismans have been assigned to clones 1.
- Allows him to recall the talismans instantly from those clones 1.
- Gives his original body access to the Sheep Talisman’s upgraded abilities, rather than reserving them exclusively for Wei Goat 18.
Combat and Instruction
- Speed and evasion: Avoided a hundred freshmen’s coordinated attacks, including attacks supported by Huo Yuhao’s shared Spiritual Detection 16.
- Restrained combat: Electrolux judged that Chu Ye was deliberately holding back during the siege and that several times as many students would still have been unable to defeat him 16.
- Cultivation guidance: Helped Tang Ya circulate her Mysterious Heaven Skill more smoothly 26.
- Practical training: His challenge-based instruction improved his students’ combat skills and made their Soul Power cultivation easier 24.
Clones
Chu Ye’s clones coordinate inside the Zodiac Temple in his Sea of Consciousness while operating under separate identities across the continent 1 26 30.

| Zhu Hai | Sun Moon Royal Academy representative selected for the Spirit Pagoda ceremony; coordinated his role with Chu Ye’s other clones 25 26. |
Equipment / Items

Relationships
- Huo Yuhao — Junior and student who admires his defiance of unjust authority. Chu Ye rewards him with a Spirit Ascension Pill and encourages his interest in the Zodiac Temple by raising the possibility of resurrection 12 17 28.
- Wang Dong — Student whose apparent rescue strengthens Chu Ye’s reputation. She frequently calls him a show-off but increasingly trusts his teaching; he regards her growing independence from Tang San’s intended path as a valuable change in fate 6 13 24 28.
- Xiao Xiao — Student and admirer who chooses his instruction, joins the class siege, and receives a Spirit Ascension Pill 15 16 28.
- Tang Ya — Admires his talent, personality, and cultivation guidance. Her enthusiasm for him repeatedly makes Bei Bei jealous 11 12 24 26.
- Bei Bei — Junior who feels overshadowed by Chu Ye’s strength and Tang Ya’s admiration for him 12 24.
- Ma Xiaotao — Combat rival and treatment recipient. After he suppresses her Evil Fire, she continues demanding a rematch but also defends him against Yan Shaozhe’s suspicions 28 29 30.
- Mu En — Patron who grants him broad teaching authority and considers him, alongside Zhulong, a potential pillar of Shrek’s future 14 30.
- Yan Shaozhe — Frequently exasperated dean whom Chu Ye pressures for compensation. His need for Ma Xiaotao’s treatment eventually makes him protect Chu Ye from disciplinary interference 27 28 30.
- Zhou Yi — Former teacher and persistent antagonist. Chu Ye previously hung her from a tree and later won over her entire freshman class 15 16.
- Xuan Zi — Opposes Chu Ye’s promotion and demands punishment for his disrespect toward the Sea God and academy 10 13.
- Tang San — Principal target of Chu Ye’s schemes; Chu Ye disrupts his influence over Wang Dong and engineers attacks against both him and his projection 1 6 9.
