Yu Xunge used Time Urgency and Cat's Ideal to return to the moment Mo Ji stole her wealth, then investigated the contestants’ talents and skills while time was stopped.

Yu Xunge entered the final Godly Game, “Assassinate a God,” despite Motorcycle’s doubts and prepared to use her Demon Permit to blend into Demon City. After studying her surroundings and disguising herself, she began weighing ways to gather clues and eliminate both citizens and other participants.

• Motorcycle warned Yu Xunge that failing the individual match would bar her from future games, but she declared her era was beginning and entered first.
• Yu Xunge chose to keep the Demon Permit instead of her backpack, hid it in her uniform, packed Winter Snow, withered leaves, and Spring Flowers, and sent her backpack back to Moonlight Wetland.

• Yu Xunge disguised herself, arranged alcohol in a crowded bar, and set it ablaze with Spirited Cooking, receiving three prompts after the explosion.

• Yu Xunge called out that she had something to say as the black-robed resident raised his knuckles again.

• Yu Xunge and Moji sized each other up, wary of their skills, until Songgui appeared and completed a triangle with them.

• Yu Xunge reviewed the hints her Black Shadow had copied onto a White Robe, burned the robe, and focused on the clue about a ball game in the Old Town District.
• Yu Xunge suspected that the gods might be contestants and wondered why killing apprentices had not completed her mission.

• Yu Xunge killed an apprentice who had also believed she had found the god, then realized the Demon Permit might be tied to the game’s unfinished outcome and a contestant becoming a god.

Yu Xunge connected the five burning orange statues to Boiling Orange’s ice cream shop and worked out that the individual match required contestants to build five statues and become gods before their rivals destroyed them. She left the shop, while the viewers realized she had figured out the game but kept the solution to themselves.

• Yu Xunge stole Boiling Orange’s Key from the ice cream clerk and waited at the shop while recovering her HP and letting Rule 710’s cooldown run down.
• Yu Xunge questioned Boiling Orange about the Old Town District, his identity, and the burning orange statues, then concluded the statues’ intersection was the ice cream shop.

• Fat Goose discovered that Mist Blade, Fengtang, and Black Cat had also figured out the game’s solution, but none of them would share it.

Yu Xunge gathered Demon Permits while pursuing the individual match’s hidden answer, then discovered that crushing a permit revealed her Soul Fire.

• Yu Xunge recognized the stars in the comet’s tail as important presences in her life and reaffirmed her ambition to follow Zhuri’s example.

Yu Xunge erected five Demon Statues in Demon City while surviving the apprentices who united to stop her. After one statue was destroyed, she quickly raised a backup statue and restored the count of active red pillars to five.

• Yu Xunge chose to make her first Demon Statue look like herself, protected it with Mysterious Power, and teleported to the next location.
• She raised the second statue inside a Bubble Nebula, then fought through the attacking apprentices to create a third statue protected by Hide and Seek.

• She created her fifth statue and left her Black Shadow to guard it, but the second statue was destroyed shortly afterward.
