Ning Tianchen and the Seven Treasures Battle Team dealt with Dai Mubai’s harassment of Zhu Zhuqing and arranged with Dai Weisi to prevent the Star Luo Empire from retaliating against them. In the losers’ bracket final, Shrek Academy unveiled a Five-in-One Spirit Fusion Skill that transformed Tang San’s Clear Sky Hammer, leaving the match’s outcome uncertain.

• Dai Mubai threatened and attacked Zhu Zhuqing, but Ning Tianchen and Ke Jie intervened; Zhu Zhuqing declared her engagement void, and Dai Mubai fled rather than face the Organizing Committee.

• Ning Tianchen and his teammates dodged and pressured Tang San’s Five-in-One Spirit Fusion Skill, while Feng Xiaotian drove Jiang Zhu and Xiao Wu out of the arena.

The Seven Treasures Battle Team faced Spirit Hall’s Golden Generation in a prolonged, evenly matched showdown, with Ning Tianchen holding off Xie Yue and Yan. After unleashing an incomplete “Kill” Character Sword Formula, Ning Tianchen impressed Bibi Dong, who began considering recruiting him.

• Xie Yue returned to the Spirit Hall Team, and Ning Tianchen’s knowledge of their Martial Soul Fusion Skill stirred suspicion before Bibi Dong revealed the truth to them.

• Ning Tianchen warned his teammates that Spirit Hall’s guards were gathering in the audience and a bloodbath might follow, while Ke Jie told him to protect the team and escape with Dugu Bo if attacked.

Ke Jie’s coronation exposed Xiao Wu as a Transformed Spirit Beast, prompting Bibi Dong to move against her and Tang San. Tang Hao appeared amid the confrontation, but instead of rescuing them at once, he attacked Ning Tianchen to seize his soul bones, leaving Chen Xin to challenge him.

• Ke Jie completed the opening stages of his Titled Douluo coronation, and Xiao Wu briefly exposed her soul beast aura when her herbs fell.
