Ch. 161War
Clear Sky Sect agreed to support Tang San and preserve its future while Shi Yi returned to Spirit City amid a war launched by Heaven Dou and Star Luo. Bibi Dong prepared Spirit Hall for battle, and she summoned Shi Yi for a private discussion.
- Tang Yuehua challenged the elders over abandoning Tang Hao, and Tang Xiao proposed that Clear Sky Sect support Tang San; the elders agreed to send younger disciples into hiding.
- Shi Yi, Shui Bing'er, and Zhu Zhuqing learned that Xue Beng had invaded Spirit Hall Empire with a million soldiers and that Star Luo, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Tang Sect, and other forces had joined him.
- Bibi Dong ordered Hu Liena to summon the leaders of the seven sects and senior empire Soul Masters to plan Spirit Hall's response.
- Shi Yi told Bibi Dong that Clear Sky Sect would join the opposing bloc and that Tang San was relying on the sect to overcome the challenge of Twin Martial Souls.
- Hu Liena lamented that Shi Yi had not greeted her, while Xie Yue comforted her; Bibi Dong then asked Shi Yi to speak with her alone.
