• Ye Xinglan comprehended Sword Soul and broke through to Soul Saint during the battle, then unleashed Sword Star Soul against Duanmu Yan’s Molten Flame Demon Split.
• The attacks collided and devastated the battlefield; Ye Xinglan escaped after her Martial Soul Avatar broke, and Duanmu Yan chose not to pursue her after sensing a familiar aura.

Nan Fusheng rescued Ye Xinglan from Duanmu Yan and brought her toward Skysea City, where the Baozu Worm’s side effect overwhelmed her and led to an impulsive encounter between them. After they returned to the Governor’s Mansion, Ye Xinglan demanded that Nan Fusheng forget what happened, then broke down in tears alone in her room.

• Xia Zhengleng and Qiangu Qingfeng confronted Qiangu Dongfeng for pressuring Fors, and Qiangu Qingfeng revealed he had broken through.
• After Leng Yaozhu calmed the meeting, Fors said she opposed the proposals because she disliked Artificial Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Spirits and distrusted Gu Yuena’s claims about the Small Plane.

• The Spirit Pagoda rejected the Artificial Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Spirits and the Myriad Beast Platform, allowing only limited resources for the latter.
• Qiangu Dongfeng complained about the decision and promised Gu Yuena that the Qiangu Family would support her research.
