• Zhu Zhuqing stood in the hexagram and nervously asked whether the ritual was safe, but Li Ang activated the Six Paths Reincarnation Great Array before she could finish.

Li Yusong revealed himself as a Soul Emperor and began Shrek Academy’s admissions process, while Li Ang explained to Zhu Zhuqing that the academy’s impressive teachers and strict requirements concealed a ramshackle school. Zhu Zhuqing reconsidered Shrek’s claims, but Li Ang left her with a critical view of its founder Flender’s scheme to gain fame by recruiting geniuses.

• Li Yusong displayed six Soul Rings and used his Soul Emperor aura to make Dai Mubai and Tang San back down.
• Li Ang told Zhu Zhuqing that Shrek Academy had a few powerful teachers but very few students and little else.
• Li Yusong scolded Dai Mubai, then announced that Shrek admitted only students under thirteen with Soul Power of at least level twenty-one.
• Li Ang questioned whether gifted students needed Shrek Academy to become successful and criticized Flender for trying to build the school's reputation by recruiting geniuses.

Li Ang urged Zhu Zhuqing to let him take control when Dai Mubai attacked her at Shrek Academy. Using Li Ang’s combat experience, Zhu Zhuqing wounded Dai Mubai with a strange dagger, leaving their confrontation unresolved.

• Li Ang used Zhu Zhuqing’s body to stab Dai Mubai with a venomous dagger, leaving him near death.
• Zhu Zhuqing regained control and worried that Dai Mubai might die and bring trouble upon her.
• Tang San rushed in, gave Dai Mubai Realgar Wine, and removed the dagger, rapidly neutralizing the venom.
• Tang San accused Zhu Zhuqing of using a vicious poisoned weapon and said the Realgar Wine had saved Dai Mubai.
• Li Ang was astonished that the wine worked and told Zhu Zhuqing that realgar could repel snakes but could not detoxify poison.

Zhao Wuji ended the confrontation between Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai by forbidding them to fight inside Shrek Academy, then sent Zhu Zhuqing, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong straight to the fourth assessment. Dai Mubai escorted them and befriended Tang San, though his boasts about Shrek Academy’s history and graduates did not withstand scrutiny.

• Zhao Wuji learned what had happened, reprimanded Dai Mubai, and told Zhu Zhuqing that the academy would not interfere in their grudge but forbade them from fighting on its grounds; Zhu Zhuqing agreed.
• Zhao Wuji exempted Zhu Zhuqing, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong from the second and third assessments, then used his Soul Sage pressure to silence an examinee who objected.
• Dai Mubai led the four toward the fourth assessment and avoided provoking Zhu Zhuqing after she defeated him.
• Dai Mubai thanked Tang San for the Realgar Wine and quickly became friends with him.
• Dai Mubai boasted about Shrek Academy’s graduates, but the timeline and requirements for Spirit Hall elders made his claims seem unreliable.
