Huo Yuhao learned that a mysterious, high-ranked soul and an unknown sunlike power had appeared in his Sea of Consciousness, then returned to his companions and joined the Tang Sect. The God Realm’s rulers struggled to identify the force that had devastated their realm, while Ye Cheng descended into the future world and prepared to intervene in events around Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao heard an aged voice in his mind and witnessed the memories of Ye Cheng, a powerful figure from another version of Douluo Continent. The voice explained that it came from a twin world and that a fragment of its remnant soul had attached itself to Huo Yuhao.

• Huo Yuhao reflected on how the Tang Sect’s Mysterious Heaven Skill had refined his Soul Power and improved his endurance.
• An aged voice spoke inside Huo Yuhao’s mind, then pulled him into his mental world and explained that Sky Dream was asleep until Huo Yuhao obtained his second soul ring.
• The aged voice showed Huo Yuhao fragments of Ye Cheng’s life, including his rise to godhood, battle against the Abyss, and sacrifice to save the world.
• The aged voice explained that its world and Huo Yuhao’s world were like twins, similar in appearance and history but different in important details.
• The aged voice told Huo Yuhao that it had perished with the Abyss Lord, been scattered through space-time turbulence, and left a remnant fragment that attached itself to him.

Huo Yuhao learned that the soul fragment in his spiritual world was Old Ye, a God of Creation from another world, who compared their cultivation traditions and passed on a more advanced cultivation method. Huo Yuhao recognized that the method included the concept of Soul Cores and could allow Soul Masters to condense soul rings, though it was incomplete.

• Huo Yuhao looked up and realized Old Ye was the sun in his spiritual world, and Old Ye explained that his divine essence made even a soul fragment seem overwhelming.
• Old Ye said the Soul Masters of Huo Yuhao's world still relied on primitive meditation methods and reacted gravely when Huo Yuhao mentioned Sea God Tang San.
• Old Ye told Huo Yuhao to call him Old Ye and offered to teach him part of the cultivation system used by God Ring Masters in his world.
• Old Ye sent a large amount of information into Huo Yuhao's mind, causing him to vanish from the spiritual world and awaken outside.

Huo Yuhao secretly replaced the Tang Sect’s Mysterious Heaven Skill with Old Ye’s far more efficient Innate Skill while keeping the ability to imitate the old technique. He arrived at Shrek Academy with Bei Bei and Tang Ya, where his admission prospects depended on reaching Soul Power level fifteen before turning twelve.

• Huo Yuhao discovered that Innate Skill greatly accelerated his cultivation and absorbed the Mysterious Heaven Skill, allowing him to conceal his change while still using Tang Sect secret arts.
• Huo Yuhao kept his new technique secret from Tang Ya and Bei Bei, who believed he was diligently cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Skill.
• After several days of travel, Huo Yuhao, Bei Bei, and Tang Ya reached Shrek City during the academy’s new student intake.
• Tang Ya told Huo Yuhao that outer-courtyard applicants had to be no older than twelve and have at least level fifteen Soul Power, while Huo Yuhao judged he could reach that level within three months.
• Bei Bei secured the guards’ permission to bring Huo Yuhao through Shrek Academy’s East City Gate, and Huo Yuhao entered the academy grounds.

Bei Bei introduced Huo Yuhao to statues of Shrek Academy’s founders, while Old Ye showed him memories revealing the academy’s poor history and its founders’ true circumstances. Huo Yuhao left with his reverence for Shrek shaken, though he remained unsure what the academy was like in the present.

• Bei Bei identified the statues of Flender, Yu Xiaogang, Liu Erlong, and the Shrek Seven Devils.
• Old Ye showed Huo Yuhao memories of Shrek Academy ten thousand years ago, where inadequate training and conditions led many students to die or be crippled.

• Old Ye said he did not know what had happened to Dai Mubai and doubted that he could have become a god without an extraordinary opportunity.
• Huo Yuhao questioned whether the present Shrek Academy was also a poor school and stopped viewing its history with blind reverence.

• Bei Bei explained Shrek’s Martial Soul and Soul Tool branches and led Huo Yuhao through enrollment, where he paid ten Gold Soul Coins in nonrefundable tuition.

• Bei Bei warned Huo Yuhao that Zhou Yi was strict and had caused nine-tenths of her previous class to drop out, though her remaining students often reached the Inner Court.
• Huo Yuhao recognized that Zhou Yi’s impressive Inner Court results came after most of her students had been expelled, and Ye Cheng suggested the academy tolerated her because of her exceptional pupils or powerful backing.
• Bei Bei and Tang Ya left for their advancement tests, and Huo Yuhao set off for his dormitory.

• Ye Cheng warned Huo Yuhao that Wang Dong had far greater Soul Power and taught him to use his spiritual power as an attack.

• Ye Cheng described the attack as a basic Self-Created Soul Skill and offered to teach Huo Yuhao how to reproduce his Soul Ring abilities through spiritual power.

Huo Yuhao defeated Wang Dong in their roommate spar, then began his first day at Shrek Academy under the harsh homeroom teacher Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi’s punishment for students who had not fought sparked Huo Yuhao’s disgust with Shrek, leaving him questioning whether the academy was a force for good.

• Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong stood when Zhou Yi asked who had fought since registration, and Zhou Yi ordered everyone else to run one hundred laps or face expulsion.
• Huo Yuhao grew furious at Zhou Yi’s claim that students who avoided trouble were mediocre and began to view Shrek as a corrupt academy.

Zhou Yi threatened to expel the freshmen unless they ran one hundred laps, then made Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong run too despite praising their spirit. Huo Yuhao obeyed without fear of expulsion, doubting Shrek Academy’s reliability as he ran.

• A student challenged Zhou Yi’s punishment, but she threatened to expel anyone who did not run around Shrek Square within a minute.
• The freshmen reluctantly left to run one hundred laps in an hour, while Zhou Yi asked Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong why they had fought.
• Huo Yuhao explained that he and Wang Dong were roommates who had argued, and Zhou Yi praised their fight before ordering them to run with the others.
• Wang Dong questioned Zhou Yi’s order, but Huo Yuhao ran out and told her to hurry if she wanted to avoid expulsion.
• Huo Yuhao struggled to keep up with the deadline but remained unconcerned about being expelled, believing he could make his way in the world without Shrek.

Huo Yuhao used Old Ye’s breathing technique to finish the hundred-lap run, while Zhou Yi expelled nine students for cutting corners. The class returned to the classroom, where Zhou Yi asked Huo Yuhao to state his Soul Power Level, leaving Wang Dong surprised that it was only level thirteen.

• Old Ye taught Huo Yuhao a breathing technique that steadied his Soul Power and let him recover enough to catch up with the runners.
• After the students finished the run, Zhou Yi expelled Cheng Cheng, Qiu Jianrao, Tang Dao, Shangguan Chentian, Lin Zeyu, Zhuge Yun, Tai Long, Tang Ling, and Yun Xiaopiao for failing to complete all one hundred laps.

• Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong returned to their dormitory, changed clothes, and hurried back to class within the allotted time.
• Zhou Yi began the lesson and asked Huo Yuhao his Soul Power Level; when he answered level thirteen, Wang Dong wondered how he had been admitted to Shrek Academy.

The Q&A System opened across Douluo II World and the God Realm, where Huo Yuhao learned from Ye Cheng that answers could bring real rewards or punishments. Its first public question showed Tang San and Xiao Wu discussing the Tang Sect’s decline and a mysterious new star on Douluo Continent, but the question itself had not yet appeared.

• Ye Cheng extended the Q&A System across Douluo Star and the God Realm, activating it throughout Douluo II World.
