Chapter Summaries

Tang Yin’s attempt to absorb the Golden Ancient Tree’s energy was interrupted when the Mother of Crimson stole most of Douluo Star’s life origin, weakening the planet and collapsing the tree. Tang Hao drove her back through the Abyssal rift, while Shrek’s elders recognized him, Ah Yin, and Tang Yin as their legendary ancestors.

• Long Yeyue accepted Tang Yin as her disciple and brought him to the Golden Ancient Tree, while she blocked Yun Ming, Guan Yue, and the other elders from investigating.
• Ah Yin began transferring the Golden Ancient Tree’s accumulated energy to Tang Yin, but the Mother of Crimson appeared through an Abyssal rift and took ninety percent of the life origin.

• Tang Yin fought the Mother of Crimson with the Sea God Trident but was defeated, while Tang Hao arrived with the Seven-Colored Clear Sky Hammer and forced her back through the rift.
• Tang Yin gained seventeen Soul Power levels and a green Soul Ring from the ten percent he retained, as the returning Shrek elders recognized Tang Hao and Ah Yin as their ancestors.

The Spirit Pagoda and Shrek Academy confronted each other at the ruined Golden Ancient Tree, where Tang Hao, Ah Yin, and Tang Yin faced Di Tian and the other Ferocious Beasts. After both sides withdrew without fighting, the Mother of Crimson revealed that she would disguise herself as a Douluo Continent native and investigate the plane’s powerful inhabitants.

Meanwhile, Chen Jianshu completed Star Dou Spirit Transmission Academy’s entrance exam, but as he headed to his dormitory, the ambient elemental power suddenly plummeted.

• The Mother of Crimson ordered the Abyssal Sage King to accompany her to the Douluo Plane in human form and investigate its gods.

• Chen Jianshu completed the assessment, received his dormitory key, and headed toward his room.
• Heaven and earth suddenly changed, and Chen Jianshu felt the surrounding elemental power rapidly decline.

After the Douluo Plane’s Life Core weakened, Chen Jianshu and his companions learned that the world’s energy and cultivation efficiency had fallen. Di Tian convened a global emergency meeting, revealed Tang San, Tang Hao, and Ah Yin’s involvement, and proposed a God-Slaying Missile strike on Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect, which Chen Xinjie opposed.

• The Douluo Plane’s Life Core faltered, reducing Heaven and Earth Essence Energy and everyone’s Soul Power circulation speed by a quarter, and Gu Yue explained the crisis to Chen Jianshu and the others.
• Chen Jianshu settled into his dorm room and discovered that Yuanen Yehui, disguised as a boy, was his roommate.
• Di Tian gathered leaders and powerful figures for a global emergency meeting and showed them that Shrek Academy’s Golden Ancient Tree, the plane’s Life Core, had withered.

• Di Tian proposed launching God-Slaying Missiles at Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect, and the meeting began voting on the plan.
• Chen Xinjie spoke against the strike, and Di Tian privately planned to make him a close-range observer for the missile attack.

Chen Xinjie opposed Di Tian’s God-Slaying Missile plan, but Long Yeyue summoned him to Shrek Academy, leaving Di Tian baffled by his resignation. Meanwhile, the Mother of Crimson split into two student disguises to infiltrate Shrek Academy and Star Dou Spirit Transmission Academy and seek the secret of becoming a God King.

• Chen Xinjie argued that firing a God-Slaying Missile at Shrek City would endanger civilians and damage the city, and Di Tian used a manipulated tie to delay the decision while identifying Chen Xinjie as the lone opponent.
• Chen Xinjie ordered Shrek Academy graduates working in the Federation to monitor the missiles, unaware that Di Tian had additional missiles and the Evil Emperor had identified the agents.
• Tang Yin learned about Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect from Long Yeyue, then asked Tang Hao to visit the Clear Sky Sect and unite allies before bringing Xiao Wu, Xiao Qi, and Wulin back.
• Long Yeyue called Chen Xinjie and demanded he resign and join Shrek Academy; he complied, leaving Di Tian to search for a hidden motive behind the resignation.
• The Mother of Crimson arrived near Shrek City with the Abyssal Sage King, the Spirit Emperor, and the Blaze Emperor, then split into two student forms: Crimson, bound for Shrek Academy, and Pink, bound for Star Dou Spirit Transmission Academy.

Crimson split off Pink to investigate the academies, while Pink met Chen Jianshu and mistook him for a son of fortune she could recruit. Chen Jianshu took her back to his dormitory, where she recognized Yuanen Yehui as the key to another plane.

• Chen Jianshu learned that Pink had nowhere to stay and brought her to his dormitory, where Yuanen Yehui welcomed her.
• Pink sensed that Yuanen Yehui carried a seed that could open another plane and invited her to become a subordinate.

Chen Jianshu discovered that Pink was truly the Mother of Crimson, who had sealed her strength and come to investigate the secret behind the Douluo Continent’s God Kings. He showed her around Star Dou Spirit Transmission Academy, where she failed to enroll, while Crimson entered Shrek Academy and Gu Yue’s plan to sneak out was interrupted by Na’er.

• Yuanen Yehui told Chen Jianshu that Pink imagined herself as a plane-ruling queen and wanted to make him her Crimson Sword Master.

The shrinking map forced Xie Xie and Tang Wulin inward while Long Yue escaped after killing a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and Wu Bingyu fled a powered-up Man Faced Demon Spider. Xu Xiaoyan and Duoduo rescued Wu Bingyu, and Xu Xiaoyan prepared to strike the spider with her Frost Moon Domain.

• The group began wandering after the Man Faced Demon Spider disappeared, while Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao, and Meng Hongchen faced Huo Yunhao, Xiao Hongchen, and Dai Yun'er elsewhere.

Wang Dong defeated Huo Yuhao with the Clear Sky Hammer, then joined forces with Xiao Xiao, the Hongchen siblings, and other students to repel a mass attack in the arena.

During the Virtual World examination, Qian Xue eliminated Dai Yun'er’s teammates, but Chen Jianshu entered the fight and used his abilities to hinder both Qian Xue and Long Yue. His snow and ice powers froze everyone in and around the examination, though Xu Xiaoyan found a way to break free.

Gu Xuanyu defeated Gu Yue and the Star-Yue Shen Goddess before Gu Yue, Na'er, and Xu Xiaoyan joined forces to summon Gu Yuena, whose fight with Gu Xuanyu crashed the Virtual World server. The class chose its officers, and after class Dai Yun'er confronted Chen Jianshu while Yuanen Yehui was followed by Yue Zhengyu and Posei Shui.

Yuanen Yehui and Yue Zhengyu’s fight drew in their families’ Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Spirit ancestors, who recognized each other and stopped Yue Zhengyu from wrongly labeling her an Evil Soul Master. After the academy disciplined him and his grandfather punished him, Posei Shui tracked Yuanen Yehui down and offered a million Federation Coins for a rematch, leaving them headed to the Soul Fighting platform.

• Posei Shui found Yuanen Yehui at her dormitory and demanded another match, offering one million Federation Coins; Yuanen Yehui agreed and went with her to the Soul Fighting platform.

Chen Jianshu took Pink around Star Dou City, then brought her to dinner with Na'er and Gu Yue, whose hidden identities and wary presence turned the meal into a silent standoff. That night, Pink stayed in Chen Jianshu's dormitory and cultivated with him and Na'er, while her growing attachment to life on Douluo Star began to distract her from contacting her main body.
