Chu Xuan took Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing shopping in Spirit City, then used his soul-bone skill to steal a piece of plate metal from Flender's shop. When Flender tried to stop them, Chu Xuan exposed the shop's inflated prices and confronted him over selling fake goods.
Chu Xuan and his companions arrived at Shrek Academy to register, where Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing passed the initial tests with exceptional Soul Power. The chapter left Chu Xuan about to be tested, as Li Yusong anticipated another talented applicant.
Chu Xuan stunned Shrek Academy’s admissions line by revealing that he was a twelve-year-old level-sixty-four Soul Emperor with four Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings and two hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings. Li Yusong admitted him without further tests, and Ning Rongrong then arrived to take her own test.
Ning Rongrong passed Shrek Academy’s entrance assessment and became fascinated by Chu Xuan’s extraordinary Soul Ring Configuration. As the group prepared for Zhao Wuji’s final test, Zhao learned Chu Xuan was a twelve-year-old level-sixty-four Soul Emperor and wondered whether the academy should appoint him as a teacher instead.
Chu Xuan accepted Zhao Wuji’s challenge to fight for the girls’ admission to the academy, then used his Void Soul Skill to evade Zhao Wuji’s attacks. After exhausting himself trying to find Chu Xuan, Zhao Wuji demanded that he come out and fight, and Chu Xuan answered by opening five spatial rifts around him.
Chu Xuan defeated Zhao Wuji by using his third Soul Skill, Image of All Things, to overwhelm him with five copies, then explained his nearly unmatched abilities. Zhao Wuji appointed Chu Xuan a specially appointed teacher and admitted Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and the other girl as students; after settling into their rooms, Chu Xuan headed to the student dorms.
Chu Xuan, Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing explored Shrek Academy before Xiao Wu confronted Ma Hongjun for harassing Cuihua. As Ma Hongjun threatened the group, Chu Xuan called Xiao Wu back, leaving his response to the pervert unresolved.
Chu Xuan beat Ma Hongjun after Cuihua broke up with him, using the Flying Dragon Cloud-Probing Hand to cripple him. He spared Ma Hongjun’s life on the condition that he publicly confess to bullying girls, leaving Ma Hongjun to choose between humiliation and death.
Chu Xuan forced Ma Hongjun to confess his years of harassment and public humiliation of village women, then made him kneel at Shrek Academy’s gates. Zhao Wuji arrived to find the villagers attacking Ma Hongjun and demanded to know what had happened.
Zhao Wuji and Flender learned the extent of Ma Hongjun’s misconduct and accepted Chu Xuan’s punishment after Ma Hongjun attacked the villagers and targeted the girls. Flender invited Chu Xuan inside to discuss why he had joined Shrek Academy.
Chu Xuan warned Ma Hongjun and made clear that he would not train him, Dai Mubai, or Oscar, while Flender accepted the decision and assigned Zhao Wuji to teach them. Flender remained wary of Chu Xuan’s power and wondered why he had joined Shrek Academy.
Chu Xuan told Flender and Zhao Wuji that he came from Spirit Hall and had joined Shrek Academy while traveling, prompting Flender to suspect he was Spirit Hall’s mysterious God Child. Flender and Zhao Wuji decided to keep that possibility secret and prevent Dai Mubai and the other students from provoking Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan took Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing to the academy dining hall and confronted Oscar over selling sausages made with a disgusting soul incantation. After Li Yusong confirmed Chu Xuan was a specially appointed teacher, Oscar fled, and Chu Xuan left him with a warning not to sell sausages on academy grounds.
Dai Mubai planned to pursue the three beautiful new students once his injuries healed, while Flender waited for Yu Xiaogang and Zhao Wuji read the Spirit Hall’s announcement exposing Yu Xiaogang’s work. The chapter left Flender unaware of Yu Xiaogang’s arrest and Shrek Academy facing the threat of losing its rented land if it angered the village.
Chu Xuan prepared to train Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing, while Dai Mubai grew furious when he saw Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing at the training ground. The chapter ended with Dai Mubai trying to attack Chu Xuan as Zhao Wuji restrained him and demanded an explanation.
Chu Xuan revealed that Dai Mubai had abandoned his fiancée Zhu Zhuqing and spent his years in Suotuo City chasing women, then declared that Zhu Zhuqing was his and struck Dai Mubai. He left Dai Mubai silenced by threatening to brand him a Star Luo spy in Heaven Dou territory.
