Chapter Summaries

After awakening the Ghost Eye through a system experience card, Yang Jian killed a Grade 1 Cursed Spirit in Tokyo Metropolitan Third Hospital. He met Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto, who questioned how he had exorcised it, and left them facing his confidence in a power beyond cursed energy.

• Yang Jian activated the system's Ghost Eye experience card as a Grade 1 Cursed Spirit attacked him.
• Yang Jian unleashed a red ghost domain and crushed the Cursed Spirit, erasing it completely.
• Satoru Gojo sensed the Cursed Spirit's disappearance and rushed into the hospital with Suguru Geto.
• Yang Jian told Gojo and Geto that he had killed the Cursed Spirit and dismissed it as trash.
• Yang Jian challenged Gojo's confidence in the Six Eyes, then introduced himself by name.

Yang Jian convinced Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto to take him to Jujutsu High, where he secured a place to stay after his trial card expired. Left as an ordinary person, he planned a cover story for his meeting with Masamichi Yaga the next day and awaited his next card draw.

• Yang Jian told Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto that someone had been feeding the Grade 1 Cursed Spirit, though he had erased its body and had no evidence.
• Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto took Yang Jian to Jujutsu High for assessment, and Yang Jian negotiated room and board in exchange for cooperating.
• Yang Jian's trial card expired during the drive, leaving him an ordinary person until his next card draw unlocked in 24 hours.
• At Jujutsu High, Satoru Gojo found no cursed energy or cursed technique in Yang Jian, while Suguru Geto remained suspicious of him.
• Suguru Geto showed Yang Jian to a dorm room and questioned whether he was truly ordinary; Yang Jian began preparing a cover story for Masamichi Yaga.

Yang Jian met with Masamichi Yaga and became a special collaborator at Jujutsu High rather than having his memories erased. As he settled in, Satoru Gojo pressed him to explain how he had destroyed a Grade 1 Cursed Spirit without cursed energy, leaving Yang Jian to investigate his powers and the people behind the spirit.

• Yang Jian checked the system's trial-card cooldown and spoke with Shoko Ieiri, who directed him to Masamichi Yaga's office.
• Masamichi Yaga questioned Yang Jian about the Grade 1 Cursed Spirit, his unknown ability, and the temporary organ on his forehead.
• Yang Jian chose to stay at Jujutsu High as a special collaborator and signed its confidentiality agreement and registration form.
• Satoru Gojo showed Yang Jian his converted-storage-shed accommodation and again questioned how he had defeated the cursed spirit without cursed energy.
• Yang Jian told Gojo he was still figuring out what he was and privately resolved to learn the system's rules and identify who had fed the cursed spirit.

Yang Jian investigated the escalating cursed spirit incidents near Tokyo Metropolitan Third Hospital with Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto, then questioned his system about earning points and gaining permanent power. After Shoko brought him supplies and scheduled a medical examination, Yang Jian realized the vanished Ghost Eye had left a cold spot on his hand, suggesting his body might be retaining traces of its power.

• Yang Jian settled into the equipment room, where Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto brought him food and reported four increasingly frequent cursed spirit incidents near Tokyo Metropolitan Third Hospital, culminating in a Grade 1 spirit.
• Yang Jian proposed that human sacrifices might explain the cursed spirits' rapid growth and asked Suguru Geto and Satoru Gojo to check for suspicious disappearances near the hospital.
• After they left, Yang Jian learned that his system awarded points for killing cursed spirits, regretted that his previous kill had not counted, and discovered that the Ghost Eye cost 1,000 points.
• Yang Jian decided to make himself useful to Jujutsu High through his knowledge of the future and rested while his trial card recharged.
• Shoko delivered clothes, supplies, money, and temporary identification, then scheduled Yang Jian for a medical examination and noticed that the back of his right hand was unusually cold.
• Yang Jian concluded that the cold spot might be a lingering imprint of the Ghost Eye and wondered whether his body was remembering its supernatural power.

Yang Jian sensed an unknown presence near his window and learned that Satoru Gojo had detected the same anomalous signal at Jujutsu High. They suspected the presence belonged to a supernatural system beyond cursed energy, while Yang Jian prepared for his medical examination.

• Yang Jian sensed something move outside his window, found a wet streak on a camphor tree, and concluded it was not a cursed spirit.
• Yang Jian asked the system about supernatural realm incursions and learned they would begin only after he earned points.
• Yang Jian examined the tree the next morning and found a wide dried mark and irregular depressions in the soil.
• Satoru Gojo told Yang Jian that the Six Eyes had detected a shapeless signal that vanished at the school gates, and that he had not informed Masamichi Yaga.
• Yang Jian told Satoru Gojo that the presence felt like a ghost from a supernatural system beyond cursed energy, then collected the cola Satoru Gojo had promised him.

Shoko Ieiri examined Yang Jian and found no cursed energy aptitude, while identifying cold spots left by an external power on his body. After a white, elongated figure appeared behind him at Jujutsu High, Yang Jian returned to his building and waited for his system’s cooldown to end.

• Shoko Ieiri checked Yang Jian’s vital signs and found that his heart rate and body temperature were low, though his blood appeared normal.
• Yang Jian showed no cursed energy aptitude, and Shoko found cold spots on his hand and forehead that had slightly expanded since the previous day.
• Shoko concluded that the cold traces were remnants of an external power using Yang Jian’s body as a vessel and asked him to return in three days for another check.
• Yang Jian spotted a pale, elongated shape retreating from the corridor corner in the vending machine’s reflection, and the cold spot on his hand grew colder.
• Yang Jian saw no sign of the figure when he turned around, then returned to his building, locked the door, drew the curtains, and checked that two hours remained on the system cooldown.

A lethal White Ghost appeared in Yang Jian’s dorm, and Suguru Geto and Satoru Gojo failed to stop it with cursed spirits or techniques. Just as it was about to reach Yang Jian, his cooldown ended and he used the Ghost Hand to suppress it.

• Suguru Geto brought Yang Jian supplies and discovered White Ghost emerging from a puddle in the dorm.
• Yang Jian recognized that watching White Ghost restrained its movement, and he and Suguru Geto held it at bay while waiting for his cooldown.

• As White Ghost nearly reached Yang Jian, his cooldown ended and he drew the Ghost Hand trial card.
• Yang Jian grabbed White Ghost by the neck with his Ghost Hand, stopping its movement and suppressing it.

Yang Jian and the Jujutsu High sorcerers contained White Ghost in a makeshift pure-gold box after its supernatural power defeated their attacks. The system then warned that the first Supernatural Instance incursion would begin in 71 hours and 59 minutes.

• Yang Jian suppressed White Ghost with Ghost Hand and told Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto that only a sealed pure-gold container could hold it.
• Satoru Gojo brought gold bars, and Suguru Geto and Shoko used a furnace and a cigarette case to cast gold plates while Yang Jian held White Ghost.

• Yang Jian recycled the Nameless White Ghost for 1,000 points and bought the Ghost Eye, gaining the ability to see hidden supernatural traces and use three layers of Ghost Domain without cost.

He trapped Toji in an illusion-like area, threatened his family, and sent him to attack the Time Vessel Association in exchange for half its money.
