Huo Wushuang used the Fire Dragon, empowered by Tyrannical Power and Dragon Force, to defeat Feng Xiaotian and the Divine Wind Team. Blazing Fire Academy finished the Promotion Tournament undefeated and took first place.

• Huo Wushuang infused the Fire Dragon with stored Tyrannical Power, and a trace of Dragon Force awakened its intelligence and suppressed Feng Xiaotian's Wind Control Magic Wolf.
• Huo Wushuang's Fire Dragon bit off one of the magic wolf's heads and struck it apart, while the swallowed head's energy caused Feng Xiaotian agonizing mental pain.

After the Promotion Tournament, Quan Yi learned that Spirit Hall’s Finals decree would keep Quan Ni from traveling to Spirit City and discussed the danger with Su Ling'er. As Blazing Fire Academy prepared to depart, Quan Yi and Huo Wu resolved to face what came next together, while Quan Yi eventually cheered up the disappointed Quan Ni with promises.

• Xue Ye announced that the Heaven Dou teams would leave for Spirit City in three days, and Quan Yi focused on Spirit Hall’s rule barring non-Spirit Masters from watching the Finals.

• Quan Yi made Quan Ni many promises until she smiled again, while Su Ling'er moved away from him to chat with Quan Ni.

Huo Wu used the sunrise and the Dragon and Phoenix Heart to push her Illusion Wisdom Skull Soul Bone toward the demigod realm. Quan Yi realized she was also gathering enough Divinity to condense Divine Power of her own.

• Quan Yi watched over Huo Wu as her Illusion Wisdom Skull Soul Bone gathered energy from her Mental Divinity, the Left Arm Bone's Divinity, and Purple Qi.
• Quan Yi focused the sunrise's Purple Qi through ice-crystal lenses, and Huo Wu absorbed the intensified Rays into her skull without injury.
• Huo Wu activated the Dragon and Phoenix Heart and drew in Fire Elements and sunlight, using its ninety-nine-percent amplification to supply her Left Arm Bone.
• The Demigod Bone converted the absorbed firepower into Divinity, which strengthened Huo Wu's soul bone.
• Quan Yi realized Huo Wu was using the influx of Divinity not only to advance her soul bone but also to condense Divine Power of her own.

Huo Wu used Purple Qi, divinity, and her Demigod-level power to accelerate the fusion inside her Head Soul Bone while Quan Yi concealed her rising energy. The soul bone’s energy reached the Demigod Realm and formed a blazing-white power that joined the two kinds of divinity, and Huo Wu began merging her Spiritless flame into it.

• As Huo Wu’s divinities flowed into her Head Soul Bone, her energy fluctuation rose, so Quan Yi shielded them with a six-colored barrier and drew in Fire Element for her.
• Huo Wu activated her martial soul’s Third Awakening, her soul skills, and Martial Soul Avatar, reaching the Demigod Realm and intensifying the energy she compressed into her Head Soul Bone.
• Quan Yi condensed the remaining Purple Qi as Huo Wu forced more energy into the soul bone, which broke through a limit and began drawing energy inward.
• The soul bone’s seven-colored energy fused into blazing white and joined the two divinities, creating three interweaving energies.
• Huo Wu merged the fully fused Spiritless flame from Fire Shadow into the blazing-white energy.

Huowu completed the fusion of her energies, formed a platinum Sun Pattern, and entered the Demigod Realm as Divine Power transformed her body and strengthened the Dragon and Phoenix Heart. She opened her eyes with vastly increased Mental Power and told Quan Yi she had finally caught up to him.

• Huowu's four kinds of demigod energy fused into a platinum Divine Mark shaped like a Sun Pattern.
• The newborn Divine Mark absorbed Fire, light, and Darkness Source Power, then used it to transform Huowu's body and begin her Shedding Mortality.
• Huowu's Divine Power nourished the Dragon and Phoenix Heart, strengthening the artifact and the two souls within it.
• Huowu opened her platinum pupils, and Quan Yi sensed that her Mental Power now surpassed his.
• Huowu concealed the Yang Mark, told Quan Yi she had entered the Demigod Realm, and received his joyful response.

Quan Yi and Huo Wu discussed the changes from her breakthrough into the Demigod Realm, including her new Divine Power and evolved Head Soul Bone. Quan Yi suggested that Huo Wu’s Light and Darkness Attributes could let her comprehend a Law beyond a single-attribute Law.

• Quan Yi removed the barrier and asked Huo Wu how her breakthrough felt, and she described seeing the world’s Laws more clearly.
• Huo Wu explained that her Divine Power had gained Light and Darkness Attributes, transforming her body and Martial Soul into a multi-attribute Spirit Master.
• Quan Yi reassured Huo Wu that her Divine Power would grow stronger with her and kept a possible idea to himself until he could test it.
• Huo Wu revealed that her Head Soul Bone had evolved from the Seven-Colored Treasure Phoenix into the Light Treasure Phoenix, changing its skill from Illusion Space to Light Domain.
• Huo Wu described combining Light Domain and Shadow Domain into the Light and Shadow Domain, which linked light sources and let her control minds and bodies.
• Quan Yi connected the domains’ Law aura to yin and yang and suggested Huo Wu could comprehend a Law beyond a single-attribute Law.

Quan Yi helped Huo Wu understand how her Light and Shadow Domain could lead her toward the Yin Yang Law, then prepared her a hearty breakfast. The group traveled by Scarlet Dragon to Vast Sea City, where Quan Ni marveled at the speed of the flight.

• Huo Wu worried that combining Light and Darkness would be unstable, and Quan Yi explained that her Fire Shadow Martial Soul, Shadow Space, and Light Domain gave her natural conditions to grasp the Yin Yang Law.
• Huo Wu realized that her Light and Shadow Domain was already a deep manifestation of Yin Yang, and Quan Yi sensed that she had understood.
• Huo Wu said she was hungry, so Quan Yi took her back to the hotel and made her an energy-rich breakfast.
• Quan Yi and Huo Wu set out with Su Ling'er and Quan Ni to return them to Vast Sea City and bring Quan Li and Yun Qiong back.
• Quan Yi guided the Scarlet Dragon down to the villa's landing field, and Quan Ni excitedly described how quickly the coastline had seemed to approach.

Quan Yi revealed Spirit Hall’s threat to his family, then organized a secret relocation from Vast Sea City while the Heaven Dou Empire’s teams began their journey to Spirit City. During the trip, Huo Wushuang and Shui Bing’er grew close as their Academies traveled together.

• Quan Yi told Quan Li, Yun Qiong, and Quan Yue about Salas’s message and the Finals’ relocation, then discussed a secret plan with his family.
• Quan Yi and Huo Wu returned toward Heaven Dou City with Quan Li and Yun Qiong, while Quan Yue and Su Ling'er began moving the family’s forces from Vast Sea City to Ghost Island.
• The Quan Family quietly evacuated Vast Sea City within three days, leaving few signs of their presence.
• The fifteen Heaven Dou Empire teams and five hundred Royal Knights set out for Spirit City, and tensions between the teams eased during the journey.
• Huo Wushuang and Shui Bing’er spent much of the journey talking together, while Shui Yue'er told Qiu Ruoshui that Shui Bing’er was interested in him.

Shui Bing'er returned to cultivation while Quan Yi and Huo Wu secretly traveled with Quan Li and Yun Qiong, keeping their presence hidden. On the tenth night, Quan Yi detected a large ambush ahead and identified Spirit Hall elder Yue Guan among its leaders.

• Shui Bing'er praised Quan Yi and Huo Wu’s dedication, then led Skywater Academy back to its carriage to cultivate.
• Huo Wushuang continued covering for Quan Yi and Huo Wu, while Quan Li and Yun Qiong remained concealed in their carriage.
• Huo Wushuang reached Level 48, and Huo Wu advanced to Level 87 as Divine Power strengthened her cultivation.
• After ten uneventful days on the road, Quan Yi summoned Dugu Bo and warned that around two thousand ambushers waited along the group’s route.
• Dugu Bo used his enhanced vision to spot two powerful leaders and recognized one as his old rival, Spirit Hall elder Yue Guan.

Quan Yi and Huo Wu fused their divine powers to draw Dugu Bo and Quan Li into an illusion simulating Spirit Hall’s planned ambush. The simulation began as the convoy entered the mountain pass, revealing the ambushers’ actions.

• Dugu Bo identified Yue Guan and Gui Mei as the two Titled Douluo sent by Spirit Hall, and Quan Yi restrained his Killing Intent before deciding to investigate their purpose.
• Quan Yi and Huo Wu joined hands, revealed their Divine Marks, and fused their divine powers through their Dragon Phoenix True Eyes.
• A brilliant light transformed the surroundings into a daytime illusion, and Quan Yi explained that it reflected the ambushers’ minds and would reveal their true choices.
• Quan Li and Dugu Bo spotted the convoy and Spirit Hall’s forces lying in wait along the mountain pass.
• As the convoy entered the narrow pass, the ambushers began to move.

The Royal Knights’ convoy was ambushed by falling rocks and thousands of Black-Clad People, who overwhelmed the academy teams with disciplined attacks. Quan Li revealed himself as a Titled Douluo to save Quan Yi and Huo Wu, then faced a White-Clothed Man who had arrived in response to the signal.

• The Royal Knights defended the convoy from falling rocks while the academy teams used their martial souls to break through the barrage.
• Thousands of Black-Clad People blocked the convoy’s exit and surrounded the academy teams, with more than thirty Soul Kings among them.
• Two Spirit Saints and a Soul Douluo attacked Quan Yi and Huo Wu, and the Golden Eagle Soul Douluo charged Quan Yi in his Martial Soul Avatar.
• Quan Li rushed from the convoy, struck the Golden Eagle Soul Douluo away, and revealed his nine Soul Rings as a Titled Douluo.
• The Golden Eagle sent a signal, and a White-Clothed Man appeared and remarked that Lor Diarra had called him because Quan Li had become a Titled Douluo.

Yue Guan and Gui Mei confronted Quan Li during an attack on the convoy, but withdrew when they judged they could not defeat him quickly. Their retreat left the hidden observers to continue watching the convoy and its concealed Titled Douluo.

• Yue Guan used his Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum aura to suppress Quan Li, then weighed the danger of exposing Martial Soul Hall’s attack on the convoy carrying Xue Qinghe.
• Quan Li and Dugu Bo grew furious and wanted to intervene, but Quan Yi explained that Yue Guan was waiting for support and probing for another Titled Douluo inside the convoy.
• Gui Mei appeared beside Yue Guan and told him that, with only the two of them, they could not take Quan Li down quickly.
• Yue Guan ordered a retreat, and he, Gui Mei, and the Black-Clad People disappeared from the scene.

Quan Yi and Dugu Bo explained why Spirit Hall’s ambush had ended in retreat, then Quan Yi restarted the simulation to test how the attackers would act against Quan Li at lower strength. He sent Dugu Bo and Quan Li back to the real world and continued the experiment with Huo Wu.

• Quan Li judged that the ambush had caused little damage, while Dugu Bo explained that Spirit Hall had withdrawn to avoid exposing its operation and confronting the hidden Sword Douluo, Chen Xin.
• Quan Yi agreed that the strength displayed by him and his grandfather had forced Spirit Hall to retreat, and Dugu Bo offered to help him deal with the attackers.
• Quan Yi asked Huo Wu to rewind the world and begin another simulation, this time with Quan Li at Soul Douluo strength.
• Quan Yi explained that the attackers’ memories had been erased so he could test their choices, then removed Dugu Bo and Quan Li from the Illusion Realm.
• Quan Yi and Huo Wu stayed behind to continue the simulation as Dugu Bo and Quan Li returned to the real world.

After returning from the accelerated fusion, Quan Yi and Huo Wu showed Quan Li and Dugu Bo the fate of Spirit Hall’s ambush. Huo Wu had mentally dominated the ambushers, and Quan Yi insisted on sharing the burden of her Tyrant Domain with her.

• Quan Li and Dugu Bo learned that Quan Yi and Huo Wu had experienced far more time during their brief fusion through thought acceleration.
• Quan Yi led Huo Wu, Quan Li, and Dugu Bo to a hill where two thousand Spirit Hall ambushers awaited them in formation.
• Huo Wu ordered the ambushers to conceal themselves and explained that her Tyrant Domain had made them obey her instead of Spirit Hall.
• Quan Yi corrected Huo Wu when she took sole responsibility for the domination and said they had completed it together.
• Quan Yi clasped Huo Wu’s hand and told her he would share the pressure and sins brought by her Tyrant Domain.

Quan Yi and Huo Wu reconciled with Quan Li and Dugu Bo, then explained their plan to turn the dominated ambush force into informants inside Martial Soul Hall and strike back at the Pope. The next morning, their convoy reached the ambush point, where falling rocks launched the planned attack.

• Quan Li and Dugu Bo apologized to Huo Wu for doubting her, and she accepted their apologies.
• Quan Yi revealed that he and Huo Wu planned to use the dominated ambush force to infiltrate Martial Soul Hall and gather intelligence through Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo.
• Huo Wu identified the Pope as the mastermind behind the attack and said counter-infiltration was only their first step.
• Quan Li and Dugu Bo agreed to help, and Quan Yi explained his plan to them before they returned to town.
• On the morning of the eleventh day, the convoy followed its route toward the ambush point, where falling rocks came crashing down from both sides.

The convoy endured a boulder attack and was then trapped by thousands of Black-Clad People, who used coordinated tactics to separate the academy teams. Blazing Fire Academy faced the heaviest assault, and Quan Yi and Huo Wu revealed their Spirit Saint-level strength before three stronger Energy Fluctuations erupted, one at Soul Douluo level.

• The Knight Captain organized the knights' defense as the academies formed their own defensive formations against the falling boulders.
• Shui Bing'er led Skywater Academy beside Blazing Fire Academy, and Huo Wushuang agreed to have the teams defend together.
• Thousands of Black-Clad People blocked the convoy's escape, surrounding the academy teams with coordinated attacks.
• Quan Yi summoned the Blazing Sun Gauntlets and used his sixth soul skill, Scarlet Dragon Descent, to shield Blazing Fire Academy.
• Huo Wu attacked the Black-Clad People with Flame Needles while Blazing Fire Academy fought back against its larger force.
• Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, watched Quan Yi and Huo Wu's strength before three powerful Energy Fluctuations emerged, including one at Soul Douluo level.

Quan Li revealed himself as a Titled Douluo to save Quan Yi, but Yue Guan appeared and threatened the convoy. As Yue Guan’s pressure rose, Shui Bing’er led Skywater Academy to stand with Blazing Fire Academy.

• Lor Diarra and two Spirit Saints broke Quan Yi’s Scarlet Dragon defense, leaving Quan Yi vulnerable to a killing strike.
• Quan Li intervened, knocked down the golden eagle, and revealed that he was a Titled Douluo.
• Yue Guan appeared, suppressed Quan Li’s aura, and warned him not to speak.
• Quan Li asked Yue Guan to withdraw, but Yue Guan dismissed his offer and intensified his pressure.
• Shui Bing’er brought Skywater Academy to stand beside Blazing Fire Academy, honoring their agreement to defend one another.

Yue Guan and Gui Mei confronted Quan Li as a second Titled Douluo joined the standoff, leaving Blazing Fire Academy and Skywater Academy facing overwhelming danger. Shui Bing'er and Huo Wushuang tried to protect one another, while the Blazing Fire Team stood by Quan Yi and Huo Wu as Yue Guan pressured Quan Li to surrender.

• Yue Guan held back from attacking Quan Li until a Black-Clad Man appeared and offered to join the fight, turning the standoff against them.
• Huo Wushuang urged Shui Bing'er to take Skywater Academy away, but Shui Bing'er refused and resigned as captain to separate her choice from the academy.
• Huo Wushuang knocked Shui Bing'er unconscious and handed her to Qiu Ruoshui, then Huo Wu used her Defying Flame Ring to send Skywater Academy back to its carriage.
• Huo Wushuang led the Blazing Fire Team into formation around Quan Yi and Huo Wu, and Quan Yi felt pride in his teammates' resolve.
• Yue Guan and Gui Mei taunted Quan Li, asking whether he would let the students die with him or surrender to protect them.

Quan Li prepared to flee while using Quan Yi as bait, but Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi arrived with the support of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and Heaven Dou Empire. Yue Guan and Gui Mei withdrew with their forces, leaving the convoy safe for the moment.

• Quan Li said he would escape and expose Yue Guan's actions, while Quan Yi volunteered to hold off their enemies.
• Chen Xin appeared and challenged Yue Guan for attacking the children and their companions.
• Ning Fengzhi and Crown Prince Xue Qinghe arrived, bolstering Chen Xin's intervention with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's support.
