• Nan Fusheng observed that Gu Yue’s behavior toward Tang Wulin had become changeable again and wondered whether the Tyrant Dragon Soul Spirit’s fusion with him had affected her.

Gu Yue realized that Tang Wulin’s Tyrant Dragon Soul Spirit had submitted because of his exceptionally pure Golden Dragon King bloodline, leaving her torn between her feelings for him and the need to kill him. After the diplomatic missions reached Star Luo Continent, the Shrek and Sun Moon academies traveled toward Star Luo City, where Lu Fa’s group learned they had been invited to a tournament offering a rare True Dragon Spirit Bone.

• Ao Hongchen suppressed Xiao Kong's self-destruct attempt, and Jiateng Ying ordered the Green Skull forces to retreat.

Ao Hongchen defeated the Green Skull attackers and captured their Red Mecha, while the Shrek group continued to Star Luo City. There, Gu Yue tried to examine Tang Wulin as he slept, but Na'er stopped her, and the two clashed over their agreement.

• Ao Hongchen killed Jiateng Ying, sealed his Red Mecha, and took his Three-word Battle Armor as the Star Luo Empire's reinforcements arrived.

• Nan Fusheng researched Enci, Zhang Geyang, and Hu Jie, then chose to target Zhang Geyang and obtain his Thunderclap Hellvine Soul Spirit for Shenwei.
• Tang Wulin explained Dai Yun'er’s scheme to Gu Yue and invited her to enter the tournament, but she became furious when he praised its Spirit Bone reward and ordered him to leave.
• Nan Fusheng reflected that Gu Yue’s reaction stemmed from the truth about her identity as the leader of the Soul Beasts, which Tang Wulin could not know.

• Fors argued that she should remain in reserve, and Tang Wulin agreed to save her and Gu Yue for later matches.
• Tang Wulin and six teammates defeated their first team-battle opponents, after which Tang Wulin secluded himself to break a Golden Dragon King Seal.

• The tournament draw paired Nan Fusheng against Na'er, and he decided to fight casually before conceding.

Lu Fa faced Hua Lantang, Monster Academy’s Wolf King, in the second round of the Individual Competition. After Hua Lantang’s attack seemed to reach Lu Fa, he abruptly retreated in fear, leaving the audience wondering what had happened.

• Zui Hongchen told Lu Fa and Xue Liushuang that Hua Lantang was one of Monster Academy’s Eight Great Heavenly Kings and wielded the Dragon Wolf Martial Soul.

• When Hua Lantang’s claws neared Lu Fa’s face, Hua Lantang suddenly stiffened and retreated thirty meters, checking his neck for injuries as the crowd reacted in shock.

Lu Fa defeated Hua Lantang with Heaven Treading Nine Steps, a battle technique he had created by combining his bloodline and Spiritual Power. After the match, Lu Fa reflected on the technique’s flaws and the conditions that had let him overwhelm Hua Lantang.

• Hua Lantang sensed that Lu Fa posed a deadly threat, but charged again with his soul skills to force Lu Fa to reveal his Martial Soul.

• Lu Fa repelled Hua Lantang’s attack with a golden bloodline barrier, and Hua Lantang donned his Battle Armor and prepared to fight seriously.
• Lu Fa advanced with successive steps that suppressed Hua Lantang’s body and Sea of Consciousness; Hua Lantang resisted until the eighth step made him bleed and the impending ninth step caused him to faint.
• Lu Fa withdrew his ninth step, left the arena as the victor, and considered Heaven Treading Nine Steps’ limitations and how Hua Lantang’s failure to interrupt its early steps had contributed to his defeat.
