Huo Yuhao prepared for the Soul Spirit Contract while Di Tian questioned him about Qingque, whose identity and importance to the Star Dou Great Forest remained mysterious. At the forest’s edge, humans and soul beasts faced off tensely before Huo Yuhao mediated and both sides brought forward injured and dying volunteers for the experiment.

• Another guest offered 100 million Federal Coin to try for the Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

• Nan Fusheng paid for the Energy Purple Crystal and approached the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, but the banquet hall’s lights began flickering before he could test it.
• Ye Xinglan and Zhu Yutang fought Hantengu, whose severed body regenerated and split into four Titled Douluo Doppelgangers named Hatred, Joy, Pleasure, and Sorrow.

• Ye Xinglan agreed to the plan and told Nan Fusheng to hide, while he accepted without revealing his Quasi-Soul Douluo strength.

Meanwhile, Ape God entered the Star Dou Great Forest seeking revenge for his wife Ape Demon and faced Di Tian in a battle that began high above the forest.
