After learning that his grandmother Lin Huiqun’s ties to Shrek had bound him to the academy, Shen Yichen received the cheat he had been waiting for: a Diary Recording System.

• Mu En began Shen Yichen's Martial Soul Awakening in the Sea God Pavilion while Lin Huiqun, Zhang Lexuan, Xuan Zi, and Ma Xiaotao watched.

Shen Yichen then discussed first Soul Rings with Elder Lin, who explained why chasing a higher-aged ring carried risks without proven benefits.

• Lexuan secretly relayed Shen Yichen’s diary to Mu En, who agreed they should be cautious about the Sea God’s history.
• Tang San found that his Sea God Divine Power could not move Huo Yun’er’s soul and worried that the world consciousness or the Child of Luck’s fortune had thwarted him.
• Tang San decided to follow his original plan and rely on his move involving Xiao Qi rather than risk everything on an uncertain outcome.
• Elder Lin told Shen Yichen that Xuan Zi had gone to the Star Dou Great Forest to find him a Soul Ring.
• Shen Yichen asked about Whale Rubber, and Elder Lin explained that the supposed advantage of a nine-hundred-year First Soul Ring was uncertain and might not justify the risks.

Shen Yichen reassured Elder Lin that he would not absorb Soul Rings above his level, then spent a quiet week at Shrek Academy while waiting for Xuan Zi and Bei Bei to return. When Jing Hongchen set a current affairs topic asking what a transmigrator was and requesting an objective assessment of Sea God Tang San, Shen Yichen began a lengthy answer that had only reached the advantages transmigrators possessed.

• Shen Yichen promised Elder Lin he would avoid absorbing Soul Rings above his level, and she recalled how his family had learned to value their lives.
• During the following week, Shen Yichen wrote in his diary, spent time with Mu En and Sister Xiaotao, and complained about Brother San while Xuan Zi and Bei Bei remained away.
• Jing Hongchen received the right to set the week's current affairs topic and chose to ask what a transmigrator was and request an objective assessment of Sea God Tang San.
• Shen Yichen recognized the topic as an opportunity to discuss Peerless Tang Sect and started writing his response.
• Shen Yichen described three kinds of transmigrators and began explaining how their prior life experience could give them an advantage over local children.

Shen Yichen’s diary described transmigrators and their cheats before reassessing Tang San as an ordinary, flawed person in life. It then condemned Sea God Tang San as a danger to the world, leaving Mu En, Zhang Lexuan, Huo Yun’er, and Jing Hongchen reacting to the revelations.

• Mu En and Zhang Lexuan read that Tang San’s Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record gave him powerful cultivation methods and a hidden weapon that pierced Qian Renxue’s heart.
• Shen Yichen explained that transmigrators relied on cheats and portrayed Tang San as arrogant, devoted to family and teachers, and also calculating and ungrateful.
• Mu En reflected on the criticism of his ancestor Yu Xiaogang, while Shen Yichen concluded that Tang San before godhood was an ordinary, selfish person with both good and bad deeds.

• Shen Yichen distinguished Tang San from Sea God Tang San and declared that the god’s unworthy character made his power a disaster for ordinary people.

Shen Yichen’s diary revealed Tang San’s ten-thousand-year plan to take control of Douluo Star and his manipulation of Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yun'er realized her son Yuhao might be the Huo Yuhao from the diary, while Shen Yichen began probing the other commenters, who revealed that they were from his era.

• Mu En worried that Shen Yichen might be targeted by the gods because the diary had not mentioned him, then told Zhang Lexuan to keep their comments disconnected from Shrek and Sea God Tang San.
• Huo Yun'er recognized the possible connection between her son Yuhao and Huo Yuhao when he asked for a story about Sea God Tang San, and she avoided answering.
• Huo Yun'er, Zhang Lexuan, and other diary holders posted comments under nicknames, including Cloud, Soul Engineer, and Little Noble.
• Shen Yichen saw the comments, suspected Cloud might be Huo Yun'er, and posted as Great Sage Equal to Heaven to ask about Sea God Tang San and the commenters' era.
• Cloud and Soul Engineer confirmed that Tang San had become a god ten thousand years earlier in their time.

Shen Yichen kept his identities separate while the diary’s chosen participants discussed resisting the Sea God’s plan and shared information about their rewards. Zhang Lexuan’s reward raised her to Soul Douluo, while Xuan Zi returned from the Star Dou Great Forest with a young Titan Giant Ape for her Soul Ring.

• Shen Yichen decided not to mention the diary participants in his next entry so his identities would not be exposed, then received the Cloud Step Soul Skill template as his reward.

Mu En sent Xuan Zi to secretly hunt a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast for Zhang Lexuan, then took her back to the academy and withdrew his expectation that she become Bei Bei’s future wife.

• Huo Yun'er regained vitality and reassured Huo Yuhao that he would remain her pride even if he did not awaken the White Tiger Martial Soul.
• Jing Hongchen received a thousand years of Soul Ring Age, added it to his Seventh Soul Ring, and decided to keep the reward secret while gathering the diary holders against Tang San.

• Mu En told Zhang Lexuan she need not harbor feelings for Bei Bei or become his future wife, and Zhang Lexuan agreed to go home.

Mu En tested Shen Yichen’s Martial Soul and discovered that the child’s Ruyi Jingu Bang could devastate Shrek Academy with a single strike. After Mu En moved Shen Yichen away from the blast, Shrek’s elders investigated the damage, and the academy blamed it on a faulty Soul Tool test.

• Mu En asked Shen Yichen to strike him with all his strength, and Shen Yichen’s first blow cracked the training ground beneath Mu En’s feet.

• Yan Shaozhe called the elders to the Sea God Pavilion to explain the incident, while he and Qian Duoduo followed Mu En’s instruction to blame the damage on a Soul Tool test.

Rumors spread after Shrek Academy was destroyed, while Huo Yun'er realized Yuhao’s Spirit Eyes awakening confirmed her fears about his fate and decided to leave the White Tiger Duke’s Mansion with him. Shen Yichen answered the second current affairs evaluation by describing Huo Yuhao and several others as Children of Luck, but he left his claims open to doubt as he planned ways to fool the readers.

• Rumors about Shrek Academy’s destruction spread across the continent, prompting the empires and major powers to speculate about an attack or a new Level 9 Fixed Soul Guidance Shell.

Shen Yichen and the diary holders discussed Huo Yuhao’s perilous fate and whether to join forces with him against Tang San. Huo Yun’er tried to rally support, but Jing Hongchen suggested sending Huo Yuhao to Shrek, where Lexuan reacted with disbelief.

• Shen Yichen judged Huo Yuhao doomed because the plane consciousness, Tang San, and Shen Yichen were all scheming around him.
• Jing Hongchen realized Huo Yuhao was the White Tiger Duke’s son but decided against interfering with his future because Tang San was watching him.

• Lexuan silently reacted with disbelief when Jing Hongchen suggested using Shrek as the safest place for Huo Yuhao.

• Mu En coached Zhang Lexuan to argue that Shrek Academy’s strict admissions requirements made it unsuitable for Huo Yuhao.
• Jing Hongchen suggested the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy, but the Soul Engineer warned that Tang San might intervene if Huo Yuhao left his reach.

With the continent unaware of their departure, Shen Yichen saw Zhang Lexuan leave for the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
