Chapter Summaries

Yu Tianlin absorbed the Thunder Holy Dragon Torso Bone and Spatial Holy Dragon Skull Bone, greatly strengthening his body, but a Dragon Claw soul bone nearly destroyed his arm. Unable to withstand the remaining limb bones or reach the more powerful soul bones, he left the Dragon Tribe Cemetery with his haul and headed out to hunt dragon souls for the Dragon Slaying Blade.

• Yu Tianlin completed the five-day absorption of the Thunder Holy Dragon Torso Bone, gaining greater strength and Dragon Wings.
• Yu Tianlin dismantled more Third Rank God-level soul bones and absorbed the Spatial Holy Dragon Skull Bone over seven days.
• Yu Tianlin nearly suffered an exploding arm when he tried absorbing a Left Arm Bone, but the Thunder Holy Dragon Torso Bone expelled its violent energy.
• Yu Tianlin failed several more attempts to absorb the limb soul bones and accepted that he could not obtain the remaining Second Rank God-level bones.
• Yu Tianlin collected nearly seven hundred Third Rank God-level soul bones, left the Dragon God's remnant soul untouched, and flew out of the Dragon Tribe Cemetery to hunt dragon souls.

Yu Tianlin returned from the Dragon Valley Small World fifteen days early, and Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Luomian discovered that his strength had grown considerably. He revealed that he had brought back many soul bones, leaving both Titled Douluo stunned by the quantity.

• Yu Luomian visited Yu Yuanzhen to ask when Yu Tianlin would return from the Dragon Valley Small World.
• Yu Yuanzhen's Radiant Holy Dragon Skull resonated with the Dragon Slaying Blade, opening a Space Rift through which Yu Tianlin returned.
• Yu Tianlin easily dodged Yu Luomian's reach and said his gains in the small world had been enormous.
• Yu Tianlin handed Yu Yuanzhen the Storage Wristband containing the soul bones he had collected.
• Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Luomian examined the Storage Wristband and were left dumbfounded by the huge number of soul bones.

Yu Tianlin explained how he recovered dozens of powerful Soul Bones from the Dragon Tribe Cemetery and warned that their attached Dragon Claws made the limb bones dangerous to absorb. Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Luomian decided to use the bones to strengthen the sect, beginning with a full set for Yu Luomian, and agreed to follow Yu Tianlin’s safer absorption order.

• Yu Tianlin described his trip to the Pocket World and revealed that he had brought back more than seventy Soul Bones for the sect.
• Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Luomian discussed the risks of possessing so many Soul Bones and how to distribute them.
• Yu Luomian agreed to receive five Soul Bones to complete his set and improve his combat strength.
• Yu Tianlin warned that the limb Soul Bones had destructive energy and advised Yu Luomian to absorb the Torso Soul Bone first.
• Yu Yuanzhen agreed to Yu Tianlin’s absorption advice, and Yu Luomian asked whether the sect’s Soul Douluo elders should receive Soul Bones.

Yu Tianlin, Yu Yuanzhen, and Yu Luomian agreed to keep most of the Soul Bones secret and distribute them gradually to strengthen the sect. They began examining the seventy-plus Soul Bones, while Yu Tianlin noted that absorbing Soul Bones did not raise Soul Power Level.

• Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Luomian decided to tell the elders that Yu Tianlin had brought back only a little over twenty Soul Bones and to give each elder one to help them break through.
• Yu Yuanzhen proposed revealing the full secret only to elders who became Titled Douluo, then equipping those elders with complete Soul Bone sets.
• Yu Tianlin approved of his grandfathers' plan and reflected that the sect could distribute the remaining Soul Bones as it grew stronger.
• Yu Luomian locked the underground hall, and Yu Yuanzhen released all seventy-plus Soul Bones from the Storage Wristband.
• Yu Tianlin began explaining the Soul Bones' attributes as Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Luomian prepared to sort them.

Yu Luomian absorbed a Torso Bone and then an Earth-Attribute Holy Dragon Right Leg Bone while Yu Yuanzhen protected him and Yu Tianlin observed. Though the leg bone’s power nearly overwhelmed him, Yu Luomian used Dragon Transformation to endure it and completed the absorption, giving Yu Tianlin confidence about absorbing limb Soul Bones himself.

• Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Luomian set aside more than twenty Soul Bones to report to the elders and stored the rest in the clan’s secret treasury.
• Yu Luomian absorbed a Torso Bone in half a day, strengthening his physique.
• Yu Luomian began absorbing the Earth-Attribute Holy Dragon Right Leg Bone as Yu Yuanzhen watched for signs that he needed help.
• When the bone’s power made Yu Luomian’s right leg twitch and caused him pain, he used Dragon Transformation to strengthen it.
• Yu Luomian endured the bone’s violent energy and finished absorbing the Right Leg Bone after half a day.

Yu Tianlin learned that absorbing limb soul bones required physical strength comparable to a Titled Douluo, while Yu Luomian and Yu Yuanzhen completed their soul-bone sets. The sect distributed the remaining bones under strict secrecy, sparking a cultivation frenzy, while Yu Tianlin returned home to recover from his time in Dragon Valley.

• Yu Tianlin concluded that he would likely need to reach level seventy to safely absorb a hundred-thousand-year soul ring and qualify to absorb limb soul bones.
• Yu Luomian finished absorbing his soul bones, and Yu Yuanzhen absorbed three more under his protection.
• Yu Yuanzhen distributed Head and Torso Soul Bones to several Soul Douluo and promised the remaining bones to whoever first reached Titled Douluo.
• Yu Yuanzhen ordered the elders to conceal the soul bones’ quality and abilities, while lower-ranked Soul Douluo urged their disciples to cultivate for promised benefits.
• The Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect entered a cultivation frenzy, and Yu Tianlin returned home to rest and recover his mental state.

Yu Tianlin concealed most of the soul bones he had brought back, then learned that Yu Yuanzhen had deduced he kept some for himself. After Yu Tianlin admitted to keeping eight, including a Radiant Holy Dragon Torso Bone, Yu Yuanzhen reacted with complicated emotions, leaving the reason unclear.

• Yu Tianlin stored several hundred soul bones in a hidden safe place and kept seventeen True Dragon Soul Bones with him.
• Yu Yuanzhen summoned Yu Tianlin and explained that he and Luo Mian had deliberately left him out of the distribution to test whether he had already kept soul bones.
• Yu Tianlin admitted that he had kept eight soul bones, concealing the true number from Yu Yuanzhen.
• Yu Yuanzhen asked whether one of the eight came from a Radiant Holy Dragon, and Yu Tianlin confirmed that he had its Torso Bone.
• Yu Yuanzhen grew solemn and repeated the Radiant Holy Dragon's name, prompting Yu Tianlin to suspect there was something significant about it.

Yu Yuanzhen asked Yu Tianlin to give Yu Xiaogang the Radiant Holy Dragon Torso Bone, hoping it would help his son restore his martial soul. Yu Tianlin agreed, and Yu Yuanzhen planned to raise Yu Xiaogang's soul power before he absorbed it.

• Yu Tianlin agreed to give Yu Yuanzhen his Radiant Holy Dragon Torso Bone after learning it was intended for Yu Xiaogang.
• Yu Yuanzhen explained that Yu Xiaogang had left the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect by choice after his low Innate Soul Power and martial soul mutation brought gossip, not because the sect had expelled him.
• Yu Tianlin warned that Yu Xiaogang's level-twenty-nine cultivation was too low for him to safely absorb the torso bone.
• Yu Yuanzhen proposed using one of Yu Tianlin's soul-power-raising herbs to help Yu Xiaogang reach level thirty, then waiting until he reached level forty to absorb the bone.
• Yu Yuanzhen said Yu Xiaogang's Luosanpao was a Radiant Holy Dragon whose mutation had gone wrong, and hoped the matching soul bone might complete its evolution.
• Yu Tianlin noted that Yu Xiaogang was already fifty, and Yu Yuanzhen acknowledged that becoming a Soul Saint was more realistic than reaching Titled Douluo.

Yu Yuanzhen asked Yu Tianlin to deliver a medicinal herb and a Radiant Holy Dragon Torso Bone to Yu Xiaogang and persuade him to return to the clan. Yu Tianlin agreed and learned that Yu Xiaogang was in Heaven Dou City but would soon travel to Suotuo City.

• Yu Yuanzhen explained that he wanted Yu Xiaogang to gain strength and stop being mocked as trash.
• Yu Tianlin offered a medicinal herb and a Radiant Holy Dragon Torso Bone, but Yu Yuanzhen warned that Yu Xiaogang might refuse them because of his stubborn pride.
• Yu Yuanzhen asked Yu Tianlin to secretly bring the gifts to Yu Xiaogang and convince him to return to the clan.
• Yu Tianlin agreed after Yu Yuanzhen begged him and said Yu Xiaogang had always liked him.
• Yu Yuanzhen told Yu Tianlin that Yu Xiaogang was in the Imperial Capital and would likely head to Suotuo City next.

Yu Tianlin arrived in Suotuo City ahead of his uncle Yu Xiaogang and went looking for Flender, hoping to persuade him to help keep Yu Xiaogang from acting stubbornly. He found Flender’s shop and exposed its supposed Storage Soul Tools as fakes, leaving Flender asking who he was.

• Yu Tianlin traveled alone to Suotuo City, confident that his Spatial Holy Dragon Skull Bone could protect him if trouble arose.
• Yu Tianlin learned that Yu Xiaogang was traveling to Suotuo City to meet Flender and bring Tang San to Shrek Academy.
• Yu Tianlin went to Shrek Academy but was told Flender was away selling fake goods in a shop in Suotuo City.
• Yu Tianlin found the shop and recognized that every item on its wall was a fake Storage Soul Tool, despite the convincing Soul Power fluctuation.
• Yu Tianlin confronted Flender about misleading customers, and Flender opened his eyes and asked who Yu Tianlin was.

Yu Tianlin met Flender and explained that he had come ahead of Yu Xiaogang to persuade him to return to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect. Flender agreed to help after learning the sect had found a way to let Yu Xiaogang overcome his cultivation bottleneck.

• Yu Tianlin introduced himself to Flender as a disciple of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect and said his second uncle, Yu Xiaogang, would soon visit.
• Yu Tianlin explained that Yu Xiaogang planned to seek Flender’s help obtaining a Third Soul Ring for his disciple, who was nearing level thirty.
• Yu Tianlin revealed that he had come to persuade Yu Xiaogang to return to the sect, but Flender initially refused to help.
• Yu Tianlin told Flender that Yu Xiaogang’s grandfather had found a way to help him break through his Level 30 bottleneck.
• Flender reconsidered and promised to do his best to help Yu Tianlin convince Yu Xiaogang to return.

Yu Tianlin stayed at Shrek Academy by Flender’s invitation and obtained a Board Crystal filled with Dragon Beard Needles for free. After discovering Tang San and Xiao Wu might already be in Suotuo City, he went looking for them at the Rose Hotel.

• Flender invited Yu Tianlin to stay at Shrek Academy while he waited for Yu Xiaogang, and Yu Tianlin accepted.
• Yu Tianlin spotted a Board Crystal containing Dragon Beard Needles in Flender’s shop and asked about its price.
• Flender gave Yu Tianlin the crystal, and after Yu Tianlin left, Flender considered persuading Yu Xiaogang to return to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect.
• Yu Tianlin examined the Dragon Beard Needles and decided to look for Tang San and Xiao Wu at the Rose Hotel.
• Yu Tianlin asked a passerby for directions and found the Rose Hotel.

Yu Tianlin arrived at the Rose Hotel and watched Tang San confront Dai Mubai after Dai Mubai came there with twin sisters. The two young men revealed their martial souls and ranks, and their fight was about to begin.

• Yu Tianlin spotted Dai Mubai heading toward the Rose Hotel with twin sisters and followed, expecting a confrontation with Tang San and Xiao Wu.
• Yu Tianlin entered the hotel and saw Tang San knock Dai Mubai backward with a shoulder strike.
• Dai Mubai used White Tiger Possession and revealed three soul rings, prompting Xiao Wu to worry that Tang San would be outmatched.
• Dai Mubai introduced himself as a thirty-seventh-rank Assault System Battle Soul Elder, and Tang San answered by revealing his Blue Silver Grass martial soul and two soul rings.

Yu Tianlin mocked Tang San’s claim that there were no trash martial souls and interrupted Tang San and Dai Mubai’s confrontation at the Rose Hotel. After revealing that he was Yu Xiaogang’s nephew, Yu Tianlin provoked Dai Mubai, who charged at him as Tang San tried to intervene.

• Tang San announced that his martial soul was Blue Silver Grass and repeated Yu Xiaogang’s claim that there were no trash martial souls, prompting Yu Tianlin to laugh at the saying.
• Tang San noticed the Board Crystal in Yu Tianlin’s hand, while Dai Mubai mocked it as a worthless crystal and insulted Yu Tianlin.
• Yu Tianlin recognized Tang San as Yu Xiaogang’s disciple and revealed that Yu Xiaogang was his second uncle, warming Tang San toward him.
• Dai Mubai grew angry when Yu Tianlin ignored his taunts and said Tang San could handle him without help.
• Dai Mubai lunged at Yu Tianlin with his claws as Tang San sent Blue Silver Grass after him, but Yu Tianlin stayed calm.

Yu Tianlin effortlessly dodged Dai Mubai’s attack and struck him down, but Dai Mubai broke free of Tang San’s restraints and unleashed his third soul skill. The confrontation remained unresolved as Yu Tianlin revealed he had used only thirty percent of his strength.

• Yu Tianlin read Dai Mubai’s movements, dodged his tiger claw, and punched him into Tang San’s Blue Silver Grass.
• Tang San restrained Dai Mubai while Dai Mubai’s twin companions screamed; Dai Mubai roared at them to be quiet.
• Dai Mubai broke free of Tang San’s first Blue Silver Grass restraints, then Tang San bound him again with poisoned grass.
• Dai Mubai released his third soul skill and destroyed the restraints, prompting Xiao Wu to activate her Martial Soul Possession and stand beside Tang San.
• Dai Mubai accused Yu Tianlin of taking advantage of his carelessness, and Yu Tianlin replied that he had used only thirty percent of his strength.

Yu Tianlin defeated Dai Mubai without using his martial soul, demonstrating how much stronger his physical abilities were. Tang San and Xiao Wu watched without interfering, and Yu Tianlin was left determined to keep growing stronger.

• Dai Mubai activated White Tiger Vajra Transformation and attacked Yu Tianlin again, while Tang San and Xiao Wu decided to observe rather than help.
• Yu Tianlin caught Dai Mubai’s wrists, kicked behind his knee, and twisted his arms until Dai Mubai could no longer resist or use his second soul skill.
• Yu Tianlin told Dai Mubai that their strength gap was absolute, prompting Tang San to privately bristle at being compared unfavorably.
• Dai Mubai asked how Yu Tianlin could be so strong without using his martial soul, and Yu Tianlin realized he had easily defeated someone his own age.
• Yu Tianlin shook off his satisfaction at winning and reminded himself that he still needed to become stronger.

After defeating Dai Mubai and settling into Shrek Academy, Yu Tianlin resumed cultivation and watched the academy’s entrance assessments begin. He met Oscar, the supposedly unprecedented Food Type Soul Master with Innate Full Soul Power, bought ten sausages, and headed toward the main gate to try one.

• Yu Tianlin defeated Dai Mubai, refused Tang San’s attempts to buy the Board Crystal cheaply, and left Rose Hotel for Shrek Academy.
• Li Yusong believed Yu Tianlin had Flender’s permission to stay and arranged his lodging at the academy.
• Yu Tianlin learned that his cultivation remained at level forty-four and spent a day cultivating in his room.
• When Shrek Academy’s registration assessments began, Yu Tianlin left his room and heard Oscar selling sausages to applicants.
• Yu Tianlin bought ten sausages from Oscar and ate one as he walked toward the academy’s main gate.

Yu Tianlin visited Shrek Academy’s registration gate, where Dai Mubai recognized him and vowed to defeat him in a rematch. Ning Rongrong revealed her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and passed the first test, then chose Yu Tianlin to escort her to the second test.

• Yu Tianlin greeted Li Yusong at the registration gate and said he had defeated Dai Mubai the day before.
• Dai Mubai recognized Yu Tianlin, declared that he would not lose to him again, and led successful applicants inside.
• Ning Rongrong released her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and passed the first test.
• Ning Rongrong rejected Dai Mubai as her escort and asked Yu Tianlin to take her to the second test.
• Li Yusong agreed, and Yu Tianlin began leading Ning Rongrong into the academy.

Yu Tianlin escorted Ning Rongrong through Shrek Academy’s second test, where she revealed that his reputation had driven her to cultivate harder. After Ning Rongrong passed with rank twenty-seven Soul Power, Yu Tianlin took her to meet Zhao Wuji for the fourth test.

• Ning Rongrong recognized Yu Tianlin as the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect’s famous genius and asked about his cultivation, while Yu Tianlin confirmed he had reached rank twenty-eight by age ten.
• Yu Tianlin learned Ning Rongrong was the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect master’s daughter and led her past the queue because her Soul Power exceeded rank twenty-five.
• Ning Rongrong’s Soul Power measured rank twenty-seven, and Lu Qibin sent her directly to the fourth test.
• Yu Tianlin told Ning Rongrong that other candidates would pass the first three tests and brought her to Zhao Wuji for the actual combat assessment.
• Zhao Wuji showed interest in conducting the assessment, then lost interest after learning Ning Rongrong was a Support System Soul Master and told them to wait.

Yu Tianlin agreed to join Tang San and the others in Zhao Wuji’s fourth test, deciding to reveal his full strength. He ended the chapter by introducing himself as a level forty-four Soul Ancestor with a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul.

• Dai Mubai brought Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing to Zhao Wuji, who announced that he would test the four applicants himself.
• Zhao Wuji set a challenge: the group had to withstand him for the time it took one incense stick to burn, with at least one person still standing.
• Dai Mubai invited Yu Tianlin to join the fight, hoping his help would improve the group’s chances and let Dai Mubai gauge his strength.
• Yu Tianlin decided to fight Zhao Wuji and unleash his full power instead of hiding the age of his soul rings.
