With Ning Fengzhi supporting them, Chen Xin and Dugu Bo fought the tiger, but its formidable attacks kept them cautious as the battle continued.

• Chen Xin unleashed Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin as Ning Fengzhi warned that the tiger remained dangerous, and Su Wen said its power made it valuable to absorb.

The Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python arrived with Xiao Wu, who accused Su Wen and Dugu Bo of forcing her back, and then noticed the tiger’s corpse.

• Su Wen trapped the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger’s Life Source Pearl in his Illusion Realm and captured it before it escaped through a Space Crack.

• Xiao Wu pointed out the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's corpse, and Da Ming and Er Ming let Su Wen, Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Dugu Bo leave the forest rather than risk a fight.
• Su Wen took the corpse into the Illusion World, and his group flew toward the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.
• Chrysanthemum Douluo reported the group's presence and the battle to Bibi Dong, who considered whether Su Wen or Ning Fengzhi had absorbed the soul ring.

• At Starfall Village, Ning Fengzhi told Su Wen that the academy branch buildings in major cities of the Heaven Dou Empire were complete and only the Mountain of Books and Sea of Learning remained.

Su Wen opened a more complete Mountain of Books and Sea of Learning at the Suotuo City Academy Branch, letting hundreds of soul masters experience its knowledge directly. He began considering how to make it easier for people to enter as he continued improving it.

• Su Wen advised them to digest what they learned and choose useful materials carefully.
• Su Wen noted that the Mountain of Books and Sea of Learning was still being improved and that fixing it in one place would make access difficult.

Su Wen expanded the Mountain of Books and Sea of Learning to serve thousands of Soul Masters and introduced Soul Seals for independent access. After establishing the Suotuo City Academy Branch, he left to build more academies, while Tang San and the Shrek group remained barred from the Mountain of Books and Sea of Learning in Heaven Dou City.

• Yu Xiaogang told Oscar that the academy's outdated facilities were only an excuse and that another branch would likely find a different reason to refuse them.

Liu Erlong explained how Su Wen’s Cultivation Methods had transformed Shrek Academy’s commoner students, while Yu Xiaogang sought access to the inheritances for himself and the Shrek Seven Devils. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan summoned Yu Xiaogang back, but he chose Tang San, leaving Flender to take the group away again.

• Liu Erlong told Tang San that ordinary Shrek Academy students had received Cultivation Methods and were focused on training, while many resented the Shrek Seven Devils and Tang San.
• Liu Erlong explained that Internal Energy greatly improved Soul Power accumulation, and that the Academy also used the Soul Fusion Skill to help students adjust to bottlenecks.

• Liu Erlong told Yu Xiaogang that his uncle had called him back to the clan to receive the Internal Energy inheritance.
• Yu Xiaogang refused to abandon Tang San and left with him, after which Flender told the others to prepare to set out again.
