Background / History

Zhu Zhuqing grew up in a family where survival was treated as a contest between the strong and weak. She received no gifts as a child and later fled home after surviving a deadly pursuit in a valley, where she faced both a soul beast and ambushes attributed to her sister, Zhu Zhuyun. 1 113

At Shrek Academy, Zhu Zhuqing alone chose to become Feng Yang's disciple. She believed his assessment of the students differed from superficial interest, knelt to acknowledge him as her master, and received the Mantis inscription book as his welcome gift. 1

She became fiercely protective of Feng Yang's reputation, openly rebuking Dai Mubai when he insulted him. Her early training rapidly elevated both her soul power and combat capability. 1 11 27

Appearance

Zhu Zhuqing is described as cool and refined, with icy, beautiful eyes and an outwardly composed bearing. 1

• Uses the feline Hell Spirit Cat Martial Soul in combat. 11
• Fights as a close-range Agility Attack System Soul Master, relying on speed, claws, stealth, and sudden bursts of strength. 11 84
• Maintains a calm, elegant demeanor even while overpowering stronger opponents. 115

Personality

Zhu Zhuqing is cold and restrained on the surface but compassionate underneath. She is observant enough to recognize Feng Yang's intentions when the other Shrek students dismissed him, and she remains deeply loyal to him afterward. 1 17

She is decisive and ruthless when necessary. She killed Yu Tianheng in a single move and described the experience as no different from ordinary combat. 63 Despite this severity, she shows concern for others, including Oscar during the hunt for his soul ring and Zhu Zhuyun after defeating her. 17 117

Her reserved nature does not prevent jealousy or directness. She confronts Feng Yang over perceived favoritism toward disciples who receive Soul Bones, while later expressing that she is willing to fulfill any request he makes. 122 123 125

Abilities & Skills

Hell Spirit Cat Martial Soul

Zhu Zhuqing's Martial Soul grants her feline claws, extreme mobility, and close-quarters assassination ability. 11

• First Soul Skill: Hell Stab — Extends her claws and sharply increases her speed; she used it to shred Tang San's Blue Silver Grass. 11
• Second Soul Skill: Netherworld Hundred Claws — Delivers a rapid sequence of claw strikes. 11 115
• Third Soul Skill: Netherworld Slash — Merges her claw blades into a single black energy blade capable of breaking through defensive armor. 84 115
• Fourth Soul Skill: Netherworld Shadow Clone — Creates six clones for one minute; the clones can use Soul Ring skills, though only her true body possesses her full strength. 76 115

Isolated and Helpless

An Inscribed Soul Skill derived from the Mantis inscription, built around punishing isolated opponents. 1

• At its initial level, increases damage by 100% when the target has no allies within five meters. 1
• Its Level 2 form gives Zhu Zhuqing a 200% soul-power increase in favorable one-on-one conditions. 90
• By Level 3, it can raise her soul power threefold; this power let her overwhelm Zhu Zhuyun despite Zhu Zhuyun's higher level. 115 128
• Cannot be effectively triggered against enemies fighting in close formation, including Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun's Netherworld White Tiger fusion. 116

Presence Reduction / Sight Induction

Combat Synergy with Ning Rongrong

Zhu Zhuqing frequently partners with Ning Rongrong as the Seven Treasures Spirit Cat Combination. 11 40

• Ning Rongrong — Frequent partner in the Seven Treasures Spirit Cat Combination; their coordination is central to Zhu Zhuqing's strongest battlefield performances. 11 40 76
