Mo Xiaofang gave the genius a special invitation badge for admission to the Dross Empire Military Academy, telling him that he had to pass the exam to survive. Many of the other candidates in this year's cohort gave up under Lucas Yi's extremely difficult test, but the genius rose to the challenge. After being knocked unconscious by the Minotaur, the genius underwent another transformation, defeating the Minotaur and being declared a pass by Yi.

Early in the morning, the genius, excited about starting school, is falsely accused of cheating on the exam and will be expelled if the accusation is true. Despite being injected with a lie detector by Xiahou, the genius truthfully explains his situation but is still questioned. Meanwhile, the group of geniuses investigating the truth behind the mutated Terrastone in the Grand Forest are attacked by the Red-Haired Minotaur King. Teacher Hiss falls off a cliff and is killed by Xiahou Dun; a crisis is imminent.

In the midst of the crisis, the genius, who had absolutely no chemistry with Mo Xiaofang, activated the combat mode of his academy uniform and held out until A Yi arrived. Xiahou Dun suddenly appeared, knocking A Yi off a cliff and accusing him of having malicious intentions. At the bottom of the cliff, the genius instinctively sided with A Yi, and the group clashed. Xiahou Dun, after using an unknown potion, became incredibly powerful, plunging the genius into danger.

A Yi orchestrated a monster siege against Xiahou Dun, and the three successfully escaped. A military academy instructor told the genius that continuing to use his left hand would lead to brain death, and the initial examination would cost two million. The genius traded Mo Xiaofang's private photos for a job opportunity, but the job seemed more complicated than he had imagined.
