Flender and Liu Erlong faced painful choices in the Love Inquiry, with Flender sacrificing his arm and Liu Erlong losing twenty levels of Soul Power to spare Yu Xiaogang. When the Trial Space demanded that Yu Xiaogang give up all twenty-nine of his levels or let Liu Erlong lose the same amount, he hesitated and hoped she would take the punishment for him.

The Trial Space judged Flender, Liu Erlong, and Yu Xiaogang in the first round of the trial of love, restoring the losses suffered by the two who passed. Yu Xiaogang was exposed as a fraud, lost his chance to obtain the Golden Dragon-Nourishing Fruit, and was sent into a punishment space.

• The Bathhouse Grand Adventure rules announced that Yu Xiaogang had to cross the bathhouse and pick up every dropped bar of Soap, or lose Soul Power and eventually his Martial Soul.
• Yu Xiaogang realized that each completed Soap side story would make a big brother leave, and planned to clear the bathhouse of everyone before reaching the exit.

Yu Xiaogang was forced through humiliating bathhouse events with Brother Jie and the other three big brothers in exchange for Soul Power. After the four left, dozens of other men prepared to make him pick up their fallen soap.

• Brother Scar, Brother Dragon, Brother Chicken, and Brother Jie threatened Yu Xiaogang before entering the bathhouse.
• Brother Jie dropped his soap first and made Yu Xiaogang pick it up, triggering a Brother Jie-exclusive story event that lasted an hour and a half.
• Brother Scar, Brother Dragon, and Brother Chicken each dropped their soap and triggered their own exclusive story events with Yu Xiaogang.
• After the four big brothers left, the remaining men stared at Yu Xiaogang, and another bar of soap fell.
