• The three tournament teams waited outside the Papal Hall while Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin saw how many elders Spirit Hall had assembled.

• Bibi Dong appeared with Ghost and Yue Guan, followed by Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin, and the gathered teams and Spirit Hall members knelt to greet her while Tang San remained stubborn.

• A red-robed bishop demanded that Tang San salute Bibi Dong, and Tang San refused because he was not a member of Spirit Hall or a believer in the Angel God.

A God Realm representative realized Neuvillette and Focalors were two God King-level visitors who seemed to be on vacation, and decided the God Realm should discuss how to handle them. Meanwhile, Tang San escaped Ghost by being sent to Slaughter City, where the Asura God intended him to face the entrance trial.

• A God Realm representative learned that Neuvillette and Focalors had taken the Hydro Fire Dragon Kings' inheritances and suspected they were foreign gods.

The Spirit Hall Team and Royal Fight Team One introduced themselves before their match began, revealing Dugu Yan's rise to Level 59 and Xie Yue's increase to Level 55. As the teams clashed, Ma Hongjun launched a powerful black-flame attack while Hu Liena targeted Ye Lingling.
