Background / History

Zhang Lexuan’s entire family was massacred when she was a child. Mu En rescued her and required her to swear that she would protect Shrek Academy forever and marry his great-grandson, Bei Bei. She accepted both obligations out of gratitude 35.

Bei Bei was more than ten years younger than her. As she watched him grow, Lexuan gradually came to regard herself as his future wife. Mu En later released her from the marriage agreement, admitting it had been a lapse in judgment. She then learned that Bei Bei had never known about it, saw her only as an older sister, and already had a girlfriend 35.

Despite the agreement’s withdrawal, Lexuan remained determined to protect both Shrek Academy and Bei Bei, even if that meant growing old alone 35.

Appearance

• Face: Gentle, beautiful features with willow-leaf eyebrows 30.
• Hair: Raven-black hair reaching her waist 30.
• Clothing: A long red dress during her first confrontation with Huo Yuhao 30.
• After her breakthrough: Remains visibly pale from the physical damage caused by absorbing her eighth ring 46.

Personality

Lexuan is ordinarily gentle, considerate, and composed. She downplays the strength of the ring she can absorb to spare Xuan Zi worry, and her calm judgment makes her an effective leader under pressure 22 33.

Her loyalty to Shrek is deeply personal: the academy is her home and faith. She can tolerate criticism directed at herself, but attacks on Shrek’s legitimacy provoke intense anger. As an Inspection Corps member, she initially treats necromantic methods and an evil aura as sufficient grounds for arrest, reasoning that someone experimenting on Soul Beast remains may eventually harm people 30.

Her certainty is not absolute. Huo Yuhao’s arguments about oppression make her question Shrek’s responsibility for the rise of Evil Soul Masters. Believing he may have been forced onto his path, she decides to protect him after taking him to the academy’s elders 31.

Compassion and stubborn duty also leave her vulnerable to coercion. She ultimately agrees to Huo Yuhao’s sexual demand when convinced that refusing will cost innocent villagers their lives. Later, she risks her life for injured teammates and delays urgently needed treatment to investigate Luoyun Village 32 34 46.

Abilities & Skills

Silver Moon Martial Soul

Her martial soul manifests as a silver moon and possesses a natural ability to suppress souls 30 40.

• Moonlight enhancement: Nighttime moonlight strengthens her abilities. Even after exhausting her soul power, she draws on it to move and defend her companions 22 34.
• Soul suppression: Helps her resist the Dragon-Horned Crystal Python’s remnant-soul assault during ring absorption 40.
• Moon Blade: Transforms the Silver Moon into a spinning blade capable of piercing the unconscious python’s skull 40.
• Protection: Shields three nearby teammates from the White Tiger King’s sonic attack, although they still suffer serious injuries 33.
• Physical limit: Her martial soul can withstand the soul assault of a hundred-thousand-year ring better than her body can withstand its energy 40.

First Soul Skill: Crescent Blades

Her first yellow ring releases several silver crescent blades from the moon behind her 30.

• Uses the blades to threaten and attempt to capture Huo Yuhao.
• Stops them an inch from his eyes during their argument 30.

Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Skill

Her newly acquired eighth-ring skill turns the silver moon into a blood moon and fires a destructive beam of bloody light. Its name is not given 48.

• Uses it against Huo Yuhao at Luoyun Village while still gravely injured.
• The attack fails when he catches and crushes the beam with one hand 48.

Leadership and Combat Judgment

Her command ability and combat strength exceed those of ordinary Soul Masters at her rank 33.

• Bears roughly half of the White Tiger King’s attacks while coordinating the expedition’s resistance.
• Helps the group endure a day of pursuit before its defenses collapse 33.
• Evacuates the three unconscious survivors and eight bodies once Huo Yuhao intervenes 34.

Relationships

• Mu En — Childhood rescuer who imposed her vows to Shrek and Bei Bei, then later withdrew the marriage requirement 35.
• Bei Bei — The subject of her former marriage agreement and one-sided love. He knows nothing of the agreement and regards her as an older sister 35.
• Xuan Zi / Elder Xuan — Teacher and family-like elder. His absence during the expedition leaves her team unprotected; afterward, he supplies her eighth-ring beast and urges her to seek treatment 22 33 40 46.
• Huo Yuhao — Adversary, coercer, and rescuer. She briefly conceals his involvement from Xuan Zi, but his theft of her teammates’ bodies fuels her determination to confront him. Their latest encounter ends with her imprisonment 32 34 36 39 40 48.
• Shrek expedition teammates — Students under her leadership. She risks herself to protect them and blames herself for the deaths of eight members 33 34 36.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Graduation Expedition and First Confrontation

• Graduation assessment: Xuan Zi assigns Lexuan responsibility for the soul hunt, promising to intervene only if the students’ lives are endangered. She intends to obtain a powerful eighth ring and refuses to settle for one younger than eighty thousand years 22 30.
• Discovery of necromancy: While looking for a place to bathe, she finds Huo Yuhao experimenting with Soul Beast remains. She identifies him as an Evil Soul Master and demands that he face trial at Shrek 30.
• Dispute over justice: Huo Yuhao challenges her assumptions about evil powers, Soul Beast hunting, and Shrek’s admission policies. Lexuan concedes that some of his criticism deserves discussion with the elders, but still intends to capture him 30 31.
• Village ultimatum: Huo Yuhao claims that a subordinate will slaughter Luoyun Village unless Lexuan submits to a sexual demand. She initially refuses, then agrees when convinced the villagers are in immediate danger. He releases her without carrying out the demand and leaves her shaken 31 32.

White Tiger King Disaster

• Retaliation: The expedition kills a sixty-thousand-year White Tiger cub while obtaining a ring. Its hundred-thousand-year parent pursues the group for a day; their signal flares bring no help from Xuan Zi 33.
• Casualties: A sonic roar kills eight students. Lexuan protects the remaining three, but they lose consciousness and she is left depleted 33.
• Rescue: She places herself before the survivors as the tiger prepares another attack. Huo Yuhao intervenes, allowing her to evacuate them while he fights the beast 34.
• Loss of the bodies: After killing the tiger, Huo Yuhao takes the eight corpses for undead experiments. Lexuan clings to him and begs him to leave them, but he shakes her off and departs 36.
• Concealment: She tells Xuan Zi that the White Tiger ate the dead students, leaving no bones, rather than reveal Huo Yuhao’s involvement 39.

Eighth Ring and Luoyun Village

• Resolve to grow stronger: Lexuan accepts the Dragon-Horned Crystal Python supplied by Xuan Zi, intending to gain enough strength to recover her teammates’ remains from Huo Yuhao 40.
• Costly breakthrough: After several days of absorption, she reaches rank 82. Xuan Zi urges immediate treatment from Elder Zhuang, but she insists on checking an ordinary village first and refuses his company, instinctively wanting to prevent him from meeting Huo Yuhao 46.
• Mistaken accusation: Arriving at the massacred Luoyun Village, she finds Huo Yuhao among the dead after he has killed an unrelated Evil Soul Master. Remembering his earlier threat, she concludes that he murdered the villagers 47 48.
• Capture: She attacks despite her injuries. Huo Yuhao defeats her blood-moon skill, restrains her with psychic power, and sends her into the Bright Half-Plane as Xuan Zi approaches 48.
