While waiting for the entrance assessment, Dai Yun'er clashed with Wu Sidu over their apparent Hell Spirit Cat connection and grew alarmed that Wu Sidu might get close to Huo Yuhao.

• Gu Yue had told Di Tian that graduating from Shrek Academy would help her future work in the Spirit Pagoda, while the Golden Ancient Tree’s support would be vital to rebuilding the God Realm.

• Cai Yue'er sensed the evil aura, suspended the examinations, and rushed out to investigate.
• Gu Yue recognized the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler's aura and suspected that Huo Yuhao was Spirit Ice, so she considered summoning Di Tian to kill him.
