Tang Lin and the four girls overheard Tang San, Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun tending to their wounds with what they thought was chili oil, and left in disgust. The four men explained that the liquid had been medicine, then suspected someone had sabotaged it, but their teachers could not identify who was responsible.

• Ning Rongrong and the girls interpreted the four boys’ awkward situation as a four-person relationship and recoiled when they heard about the chili oil.

Tang Lin and the Shrek’s Eight Monsters team entered the Suo Tuo Great Spirit Arena for a team battle, where their control-heavy lineup quickly subdued the opposing team. As the match continued, Tang Lin received a giant Extreme Diamond Ice Durian from her system and wondered whether she could use it instead of the banned chili powder.

Tang Lin used a Giant Extreme Diamond Ice Durian in a Soul Arena match, helping Shrek’s Eight Monsters win before they fled to avoid paying for the damage. She later earned Sword Twenty-Three as a reward and tested the powerful soul-cutting technique, while the chapter ended with her repeatedly using Hallucination Mushrooms that led to mushrooms being banned.

• Three days later, Tang Lin repeatedly used Hallucination Mushrooms at the Soul Arena, prompting the arena to ban mushrooms.

Shrek's Eight Monsters continued competing at the Suo Tuo Great Spirit Arena as their record improved, while Tang Lin wondered whether a major match was approaching. Manager Ao asked Flender to move their team battle to the Central Main Fighting Arena, hoping they could stop a powerful Silver-ranked team from winning another heavily bet match.

• Tang Lin protested the ban on props, but the staff said the restriction came from above, and the team proceeded without them.

• Tang San called the Imperial Dou Team a perfect top-tier team.

Flender agreed to a match against the Imperial Dou Team and told the students they could earn a reward of Ten Thousand Gold Soul Coins if they won. As Grandmaster judged their chances low and pointed to a Martial Soul Fusion Skill as their best hope, Tang San proposed using realgar and strong liquor to counter Dugu Yan’s poison.

• Yu Xiaogang reacted gloomily to Yu Tianheng’s Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Rex Spirit, and Flender comforted him before explaining the match deal.
• Flender revealed the Ten Thousand Gold Soul Coin reward and said the academy would keep part of it, while Yu Xiaogang suspected he was withholding something.
• Grandmaster estimated the students had only a thirty percent chance to win and said their best chance depended on Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing using a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
• Dai Mubai explained that his and Zhu Zhuqing’s former Martial Soul resonance had disappeared, and Tang Lin suggested Grandmaster’s training might have caused it.
• Flender redirected the discussion to Dugu Yan’s poison, and Tang San proposed countering Snake Venom with realgar and strong liquor ignited by fire.
