Su Cheng shattered all nine of his spirit rings to force his physical power beyond human limits, alarming the Sacred Pillar Douluo and drawing Bo Saixi and Bibi Dong to Sea God Mountain. As his azure sword Martial Soul broke apart and poured into the bright moon above, Bibi Dong and Bo Saixi shouted for him to stop.

• Su Cheng concluded that he could not destroy the Sea God's Trident or Sea God Mountain with his current strength, then put on a mask and began shattering his spirit rings.
• After breaking his first three rings, Su Cheng's power surged to the level of a rank ninety-nine Peerless Douluo, and he felt his physical strength improve.

• Bibi Dong and Bo Saixi tried to stop Su Cheng, but his Tidal Domain kept them from reaching him.

• Su Cheng pierced the Temple's barrier and blasted a vast hole in it before his sword light collapsed and tore a gap in his soul.

After returning from the Simulated World, Su Cheng received the Source Power sample and Starlight Water Soul, while Bibi Dong recovered memories of another life in which Su Cheng changed her fate.

Five months later, at the hundredth step, he reached Level 67 and the Mask covering his soul shattered, allowing him to begin his planned breakthrough toward Spirit Sage.

• Bo Saixi learned that Su Cheng’s second trial required him to climb one hundred and eight steps beneath Sea God Mountain, a requirement she found unusual for a Purple Level assessment.
• Su Cheng climbed past seventy steps, then sat down to cultivate rather than finish the trial, while Bo Saixi allowed him to remain there.
