• Little Prison, the Wind-Thunder Prison Beast, and a pure-blooded Ice Dragon came through the gate, followed by Black Armored Giant Rhinoceroses, Ice Jade Scorpions, Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bears, and other Soul Beasts.

Jiang Ming spent the day relocating the soul beasts from his Small World into Shrek Academy’s Beast Fighting Area, where their numbers impressed the spectators and gave Yan Shaozhe and Jing Hongchen ideas about training. As Jiang Ming prepared a meal for the crowd, a dragon roar and Aura of Light announced that Mu En had emerged from seclusion.

• Yan Shaozhe sensed Mu En's Aura of Light return to its peak, while Jiang Ming discussed Elder Xuan's failed breakthrough with Huo Yuhao and encouraged him to keep pursuing godhood.
• Jiang Ming organized a banquet to celebrate Mu En's recovery, and Mu En arrived at Level Ninety-Nine while Elder Xuan reported modest progress despite failing to break through.

• Jiang Ming told Jing Hongchen that Evil Lord had joined an ambush against him near Radiant City, so he defeated it while obtaining the final Spirit Ring for his Golden Heart Martial Soul.

• Electrolux tested the formation on a bird, turning it into a Soul Beast before it died and confirming that the conversion worked.
• Jiang Ming looked at Evil Lord with a smile, while the sealed beast trembled and wondered what Jiang Ming planned to do.

Jiang Ming and the Elders completed a formation to convert Evil Lord’s Spiritual Power Cultivation into Soul Power Cultivation while the Small World began preparations for major repairs.

As Evil Lord’s Eight Hundred-Thousand-Year heavenly tribulation gathered over Shrek Academy, Jiang Ming confronted its first lightning strike with his bare body while planning to delay the tribulation long enough for Evil Lord to reach Nine Hundred-Thousand-Year cultivation. The chapter leaves Jiang Ming discovering that the lightning can slightly strengthen his already-limitless physique as the next strikes loom.

• Di Tian appeared at Shrek Academy, and Wang Qiuer identified him as her father while Zhang Lexuan and the Sea God Pavilion Elders reacted warily.
• Di Tian confirmed Wang Qiuer was safe, questioned her about the Essence of Life and Jiang Ming's defeat of Evil Lord, then agreed to stay and watch.

• Snow Empress explained that the Two-Hundred-Thousand-Year beast tribulation was a deadly turning point for Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.
• After half a day of gathering power, the tribulation sent down a White Tiger Thunder strike, which Jiang Ming met with a punch that scattered it into arcs of electricity.

Jiang Ming endured the second Fierce Beast lightning tribulation and waited for the third, while factions from across the continent began arriving near Shrek Academy.

• Jiang Ming let the second tribulation’s lightning enter his body, absorbed it with his bloodline power, and sensed faint lightning within that power.
• Snow Empress told Jiang Ming that the third, Three-Hundred-Thousand-Year tribulation would arrive a day later, and he stayed near Evil Lord rather than risk drawing the tribulation over others.
• Xu Jiu Jiu, Wang Xian’er, and Lei Yaoyang arrived from the Star Luo Empire, descended to avoid being caught in the tribulation, and were escorted through Shrek’s defenses by Elder Song.

• Vina, Golden Body Douluo, Ning Jie, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan’s patriarch traveled toward Shrek Academy together, then watched two unfamiliar, powerful figures overtake them.

As Jiang Ming’s heavenly tribulation continued, powerful visitors arrived at Shrek Academy, including Clear Sky Sect masters Niu Tian and Titan, while Mu En and the Elders kept watch over the gathered experts.

• Mu En worried about the powerful visitors gathering at Shrek Academy, while Xuan Zi learned that Du Busi remained in secluded cultivation and suspected he might break through to Limit Douluo.

After Jiang Ming endured the Evil Lord’s tribulation, the gathered factions witnessed his strength and the danger posed by Di Tian. Yu Tianchen’s attempt to approach Mu En ended in humiliation, and Jiang Ming descended with his body slightly strengthened but still short of a Flawless Golden Body.

• Vina, Xu Jiu Jiu, Wang Xian'er, Lei Yaoyang, the Golden Body Douluo, and Ning Jie reacted to the Evil Lord sealed in the iceberg and Jiang Ming enduring the tribulation.
• Yu Tianchen searched for Mu En, hoping to discuss Soul Tool cooperation and bring Mu En’s branch back into the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, but Mu En told him to wait until the tribulation ended.

• Mu En intervened and Wang Qiuer urged Di Tian to calm down, after which Ling Luochen escorted Yu Tianchen back to his place.
• Jiang Ming descended from the sky, feeling that the tribulation had strengthened his body slightly, though he believed he would need several five-hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast tribulations to approach a Flawless Golden Body.

Jiang Ming endured a stronger heavenly tribulation and absorbed its regenerative lightning energy to strengthen his body, while the gathered powerhouses watched and prepared for the long ordeal.
