• Xi Xiu said that Nine-Star Marshal Li Zhengfeng was her only idol, while she planned to keep quiet when she met Ye Zhenwei to protect her identity.

Soren's team prepared to destroy the northern Level Two beast outbreak Source Point, but Ye Zhenwei's lost atomic weapons left them short of the required firepower. As the deadline approached, the students remained unaware of the crisis, while Ye Zhenwei's engagement to Chris became an uncomfortable topic.

• Ye Zhenwei told the students about her service, and Tan Qingquan warned Han Jiajia not to bring up Ye Zhenwei's engagement to Chris.

Han Jiajia’s gossip about Ye Zhenwei’s engagement exposed her fixation on Qing Shihao and changed how Yue Qila’s squad viewed her. Ye Zhenwei clung to Chris’s engagement as protection while declaring she would go to Haian Border Fortress and postpone marriage until she advanced further.

• Han Jiajia wondered aloud whether Ye Zhenwei was pursuing Qing Shihao despite being engaged to Chris, and Yue Qila warned her with a look.
• Ye Zhenwei called Tang Yongyu and insisted that Qing Shihao should be hers, while Tang warned that ending her engagement could leave her subject to a Central Brain marriage match.

As Soren’s group entered the canyon for their operation, communications failed and the Level Two Beasts lay motionless; Gu Jinyan arrived and suspected that “kings” were keeping their distance.

• Chris challenged Ye Zhenwei about the cost to his dignity and the Boyuan Family, then ended the call after asking her to keep her promise.
• Soren reminded Team 626 and Yue Qila to focus on their assigned kills, keep their Protective Suits and defensive gear on, and retreat when ordered.

• Soren ordered everyone to stop advancing, but Ye Zhenwei challenged his authority before apologizing to A Xian and agreeing to keep her distance.
• Soren continued the mission with Combat Robots and sent updates to Sulaina and Gu Jinyan, who dispatched an emergency squad and headed to the Source Point.
• Gu Jinyan found the Level Two Beasts lying prone and asked Soren whether there were major energy fluctuations in the Source Point.

Gu Jinyan and the others fought three unknown creatures emerging from the Source Point, whose armor resisted attacks and whose wounds healed rapidly. As the battle grew more difficult, Gu Jinyan assembled a coordinated attack force, while Ye Zhenwei’s boastful confidence gave way to reluctance to fight.

• Gu Jinyan ordered emergency squads to form groups, but the atomic weapons Xing Yuanmin and Jin Chi Yue launched failed to damage the Source Point entrance.
• Three armored creatures crawled out, and Gu Jinyan directed the teams to prepare for battle and protect the students.
• Gu Jinyan, Soren, Xing Yuanmin, Jin Chi Yue, and the emergency squads attacked the creatures, but their armor and agility thwarted the assault.
• Gu Jinyan used hundreds of Mental Power-controlled fragments to locate weak points, enabling the fighters to wound the creatures, whose wounds quickly healed.
• Gu Jinyan asked about everyone’s fragment-control abilities, and Team 626 revealed they had practiced precise control before offering to join the attack.
• Yue Qila and Zhang Jixing volunteered to fight, and Gu Jinyan gathered the scattered fragments for another coordinated strike.

• Xi Xiu and A Xian attacked the giant beasts’ weak points, shredding their internal organs as the emergency squad cut off the lead beast’s tail.
• The wounded beasts summoned Level Two beasts, and Group 626 and the others split up to fight them, with Xi Xiu, A Xian, and their teammates killing them quickly.
• The emergency squad collected samples and established a Transmission Channel before destroying the hollow, while the teams learned that other reinforcements had lost their way.
• Gu Jinyan told Yue Qila that Group 626’s results came from teamwork and sharing experience, but Yue Qila remained unwilling to share her battlefield techniques.
• After returning to camp, Xi Xiu contacted Xue Fanhui, learned she was safe, and fell asleep with her head against A Xian’s.

After returning from Luoluo Star, Xi Xiu and her classmates trained in fine Mental Power control so they could operate mechas more effectively in battle. Xi Xiu secretly advanced beyond what she showed, while Enweit and Su Jinbao mastered controlling thirty objects and resolved to keep improving.

• Tarasha and Flora wished Student Hong success before parting, and Su Jinbao returned to Room 626 with Enweit, who teased him about his empty dorm.
