Chapter Summaries

Oscar killed the Pink Empress and began absorbing its soul ring, which Qian Bing expected to give him a team-wide attribute-boosting skill. Yu Xiaogang praised Ma Hongjun’s new attack while explaining its heavy Soul Power cost and short range, leaving the Shrek team considering how to coordinate their skills.

• Qian Bing urged Oscar to kill the weakened Pink Empress, and Oscar stabbed its eyes before beginning to absorb its soul ring.
• Flander told Ma Hongjun to recover after his powerful attack, while Qian Bing explained that Oscar’s new skill could temporarily increase all attributes.
• Oscar endured the Pink Empress’s resentment as pink light entered his body during the soul-ring absorption.
• Yu Xiaogang praised Ma Hongjun’s explosive power but pointed out that his Phoenix Sky Howl Strike consumed too much Soul Power and could miss if opponents escaped its short range.
• Yu Xiaogang explained that Tang San’s Spider Web Restraint could trap opponents and create an opening for Ma Hongjun’s attack.

Oscar completed absorbing his fourth soul ring and gained the Excitement skill, which enhanced all attributes and negated negative effects. The Shrek group continued searching Sunset Forest for suitable soul beasts, but after two days without success, Flander called for a rest as the tournament drew closer.

• Yu Xiaogang told Flander that Tang San's second martial soul should remain unused until at least rank eighty, and said he might visit Pope Hall after the tournament to seek a solution.
• Oscar finished absorbing Pink Empress's soul ring and revealed that his fourth soul skill, Excitement, boosted all attributes by ten percent and negated negative effects.
• Oscar summoned a Pink Sausage, explaining that it had to be consumed within one minute and could not be stored, but had no side effects and used little Soul Power.
• The Shrek group searched Sunset Forest for two days but found no soul beasts with attributes Yu Xiaogang considered suitable for the remaining three students.
• Flander stopped the search and called for a rest, worried that the group might run out of time before the Soul Master Tournament.

Tang San used the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product and a poison array to lure suitable Spirit Beasts to the Shrek group. A Ghost Tiger arrived and attacked the flower, and the group began fighting it.

• Tang San proposed using the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product to attract Spirit Beasts, while Yu Xiaogang suggested luring them near Du Gu Bo's Poison Array for protection.
• Tang San led the Shrek group to the Poison Array, planted the flower in soil from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and used medicine to spread its fragrance.
• Tang San set up an outer poison barrier to deter weaker Spirit Beasts, and the group formed a defensive formation around the flower.
• A Ghost Tiger rushed from the forest toward the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product, and Tang San attacked it with Spider Web Restraint.
• The Ghost Tiger used Shadow Clone to evade attacks, but Tang San identified its true body and Qian Bing slowed it with God Tackle.
• Zhu Zhuqing wounded the Ghost Tiger with Hell Stab, and Dai Mubai followed with his White Tiger Meteor Shower.

Shrek Academy defeated a Ghost Tiger drawn to the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product, and Zhu Zhuqing began absorbing its soul ring. More soul beasts gathered around the Poison Array, forcing the group to retreat inside while Tang San handed Flander his Flying God Claw.

• Ning Rongrong boosted the attackers as Dai Mubai battered the Ghost Tiger with White Tiger Meteor Shower, but the wounded beast launched a shadow-clone attack at Zhu Zhuqing.
• Zhu Zhuqing blocked the attack with Netherworld Slash, Dai Mubai shielded her and counterattacked, and Xiao Wu and Ma Hongjun followed up to bring down the Ghost Tiger.
• Zhu Zhuqing killed the Ghost Tiger with Hell Stab, and Yu Xiaogang urged Tang San to put away the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product as other soul beasts attacked Flander, Liu Erlong, and Zhao Wuji.
• Qian Bing sent Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing into the Poison Array so Zhuqing could absorb the Ghost Tiger's soul ring, then led the others to help the teachers.
• Ning Rongrong briefly boosted Flander, Liu Erlong, and Zhao Wuji, but more than ten soul beasts arrived, so Flander ordered everyone to retreat into Du Gu Bo's Poison Array.
• The gathered soul beasts stopped outside the Poison Array, and Tang San removed his Flying God Claw and handed it to Flander.

Tang San used the Flying God Claws to help Flander, Zhao Wuji, and Liu Erlong pull soul beasts into the Poison Array for the students’ fourth soul rings. They captured an Armored Scale Beast for Ning Rongrong and Xu Lei, and Liu Erlong took Rongrong aside to subdue it while Oscar accompanied her.

• Tang San explained how the Flying God Claws would let the teachers drag soul beasts into the Poison Array, then promised to make claws for Flander and Liu Erlong after the tournament.
• Qian Bing recommended Armored Scale Beasts for Ning Rongrong’s and Xu Lei’s defensive fourth soul rings and explained that their mouths were their only weak points.
• Flander, Zhao Wuji, and Liu Erlong hooked a Thousand-Year Armored Scale Beast with their Flying God Claws and hauled it into the Poison Array.
• Liu Erlong slammed the poisoned beast into the ground, then took it aside with Ning Rongrong to subdue it.
• Oscar covered Ning Rongrong’s eyes, took her hand, and went with her and Liu Erlong.

Tang San rejected Qian Bing and Yu Xiaogang's advice to take a Man Faced Demon Spider Soul Ring and chose a ten-thousand-year Cave Demon Spider instead. He explained that its likely group-control skill would better serve the Shrek Monster Team in the approaching Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament.

• Qian Bing recommended that Tang San absorb the nearly six-thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider to strengthen his Eight Spider Lances and gain a survival skill.
• Tang San chose the ten-thousand-year Cave Demon Spider, shocking Yu Xiaogang, who argued that the Man Faced Demon Spider would better improve Tang San's External Soul Bone.
• Yu Xiaogang described how the Cave Demon Spider used terrain and adaptable webs to trap and kill opponents, while the Man Faced Demon Spider relied on powerful attacks and poison.
• Yu Xiaogang demanded that Tang San explain his choice, and Tang San said the Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament was about to begin.
• Tang San explained that a Cave Demon Spider Soul Ring could grant him a group-restraining control skill that would help the whole Shrek Monster Team.
