Background / History

Zhu Zhuqing is the second young lady of the Star Luo Zhu Family and was bound to Dai Mubai, the Star Luo Empire's Third Prince, through the Imperial Throne Succession War. She crossed the empire and endured assassination attempts to find him, only to discover that he had fled his responsibilities and was living indulgently at Shrek Academy. She immediately lost all hope in him. 5 15

At Shrek, Dai Mubai attempted to force her to stay and attacked her. Zhu Zhuqing fought back despite the gap in their strength, while Ning Rongrong supported her with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda. Xia Ran intervened before Dai Mubai could harm her. 5 6

Seeking the power to determine her own fate, Zhu Zhuqing asked Xia Ran to teach her how to challenge opponents above her rank. Desperation initially led her to treat herself as a bargaining chip, but Xia Ran rejected that idea and agreed to train her after telling her that she was not anyone's possession. This became a turning point in how she viewed herself. 14 15

Xia Ran used Whale Rubber and shared soul power to raise her from level 28 to level 30, strengthen her body, and prepare her for an exceptional third ring. She subsequently absorbed a two-thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider ring and gained the Eight Spider Lances. 19 20 27

After mastering the External Spirit Bone in training, Zhu Zhuqing challenged Dai Mubai publicly. At level 34, she defeated the level 37 Dai by piercing him with the Eight Spider Lances and draining his soul power through Devour, ending their engagement. Tang San then struck her with a poisoned Sleeve Arrow, leaving her near death. 32 35 36

Xia Ran saved her life by giving her the 100,000-year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone. After recovering, Zhu Zhuqing openly confessed her feelings for him, and their relationship became romantic. 38 39

She later returned with Xia Ran to Star Luo City, where she reunited with her mother and witnessed Dai Mubai abusing his authority as Third Prince. After an operation against Dai Mubai was discovered, she escaped the city while Xia Ran delayed the pursuing City Defense Army; her father, Zhu Qinghai, concealed her identity from the emperor. 126 127 130 133 136

Two years later, Zhu Zhuqing had advanced to level 57. She joined Blue Tyrant Academy's tournament lineup as a Soul King and, alongside Xiao Wu, defeated Heaven Dou Team One despite being outnumbered. 157 193 197 198

Appearance

Zhu Zhuqing has dark-purple hair, purple eyes, and usually wears dark, close-fitting combat clothing suited to her agility-based fighting style. 35 51 55

• Her Hell Spirit Cat possession gives her feline traits and claw-based attacks. 5 193
• Her Eight Spider Lances emerge from her back as eight metallic purple spider legs. 28 32
• She wears specially made backless outfits beneath a jacket so that her External Spirit Bone can manifest without destroying her clothes. 32
• During the tournament, she wears purple, close-fitting battle gear. 197

Personality

Zhu Zhuqing is reserved, cool-headed, and decisive in battle. She does not tolerate Dai Mubai's degradation or insults, and her rejection of him comes from both disgust and a refusal to let her life be dictated by the Star Luo succession system. 5 35 36

Her greatest motivation is self-determination. Although she initially becomes desperate enough to devalue herself in exchange for help, she accepts Xia Ran's admonition and resolves to define herself beyond her family, engagement, and assigned political role. 15

She is diligent and highly receptive to training. Despite being described as having average cultivation talent, she quickly learns to integrate the Eight Spider Lances into combat and actively seeks skills that complement her fighting style. 32 147

Zhu Zhuqing is also deeply loyal to Xia Ran and her companions. She worries for Xia Ran when he is injured or missing, cooperates closely with Xiao Wu in battle, and shows sympathy toward Wen Yurou's suffering. 86 137 198
