Yu Xunge entered a Godly Game with her skills and alchemy expertise, then survived its harsh world by joining forces with other children and becoming Zhuri’s apprentice. Zhuri trained her in combat, infiltration, and city life, and the arc ended with Yu Xunge and Blade Mist preparing to attend school while burdened by debt.
- Yu Xunge entered the Godly Game after choosing three skills to retain, and discovered she could use her professional abilities and several powers tied to the ship’s helm and lantern.
- In Kaladom, Yu Xunge teamed up with Mistblade and Fat Goose to sell potions and Magic Food, but Treasure Hunter Zhuri captured them and planned to sell them.

- Zhuri trained Yu Xunge in etiquette, disguise, reconnaissance, and infiltration, then sent her to endure a twenty-one-day trial inside a noble office building, where Yu Xunge stole Skill Scrolls and narrowly escaped discovery.
- After traveling with Zhuri to Delano, Yu Xunge worked at Thief Bug Tavern, explored Garbage Street, and studied under temporary teachers while learning to assess people and survive.
- Zhuri arranged Yu Xunge’s future studies at Moonlight Wetland and told her she would owe fifty thousand gold coins after graduating, adding that she would inherit Zhuri’s own debt if Zhuri died.
