Sun Buyu postponed Wu Qi’s plan to train in the north, while the Shrek Six Monsters traveled to Heaven Dou City to join Heaven Dou Royal Academy. After an awkward encounter with a noblewoman, they reached the academy’s remote mountain setting, where Flender began explaining its location.

• Sun Buyu agreed that northern training could be beneficial but postponed the trip until he could arrange protection and the timing was right.

• Prince Xue Xing threatened to imprison Yu Tianheng unless he cleaned up Shrek’s mess, so Yu Tianheng reluctantly obeyed.
• The Shrek group washed off the filth, while Xiao Wu remained stunned by the humiliation and Tang San vowed they would get revenge on Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
• At Seven Treasures Academy, Wu Qi told the group to prepare for a training trip north and planned to invite Dugu Bo as their bodyguard.
• Yu Tianheng caught up with Shrek, announced that he had left Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and offered to bring clan investment if they rebuilt their academy.

• Yu Tianheng said joining Seven Treasures Academy would not work.

• Yu Tianheng told the Shrek group that Qin Ming had been executed and that the former Royal Fight Team Two had joined Seven Treasures Academy, leaving Shrek with little chance of a competition slot there.

• Dai Mubai yielded the captaincy to Yu Tianheng, while he and Tang San became vice-captains.
• Dugu Bo visited Wu Qi that night and said he had discovered something major: Xiao Wu’s identity.

Wu Qi warned Dugu Bo not to target Xiao Wu until they knew whether Tang San’s father was Tang Hao, then secured Dugu Bo’s approval for a training trip. Meanwhile, Yu Yuanzhen heard about Yu Tianheng’s dispute with Prince Xue Xing and decided the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan should not escalate matters with the Heaven Dou Royal Family.

Wu Qi and the Seven Treasures Team left Heaven Dou City for the north with Dugu Bo, who warned them about its tangled forces. Meanwhile, the Shrek Seven Devils trained under Yu Xiaogang, but Yu Tianheng revealed that the Seven Treasures Team had grown far stronger than they expected, leaving Tang San and the others stunned.

• Yu Tianheng said the Seven Treasures Team had five Soul Ancestors and that Feng Xiaotian might reach Soul King before the competition.
• Tang San questioned how Wu Qi and the others could have advanced so far in just over half a year, and Yu Xiaogang was also shocked.

Yu Tianheng and Tang San speculated that Wu Qi had used Immortal Herbs from Dugu Bo’s medicinal garden to strengthen Royal Fight Team Two, and Yu Xiaogang became determined to obtain them for himself. The discussion ended with Yu Xiaogang pressuring Tang San to help him break through level twenty-nine.

• Yu Tianheng told Yu Xiaogang and the others that Wu Qi’s strength and Royal Fight Team Two’s abilities had rapidly increased after Wu Qi visited Poison Douluo.
• Yu Xiaogang suggested rare treasures might explain the breakthroughs, and Tang San proposed that the team had absorbed Immortal Herbs, including a possible herb that could cure Ma Hongjun’s evil fire.
• Yu Tianheng asked whether Tang San could identify Immortal Herbs in Dugu Bo’s medicinal garden, but Yu Xiaogang warned them not to provoke the Titled Douluo.
• Tang San suggested negotiating with Dugu Bo to find an herb that could restore Yu Xiaogang’s cultivation, prompting Yu Xiaogang to ask how they could make a deal.
• Yu Tianheng and Tang San speculated that Wu Qi might already possess the Immortal Herbs, while Yu Xiaogang called him selfish and proposed capturing him to demand answers.
• Yu Xiaogang accused Wu Qi of harming Tang San and then guilt-tripped Tang San by invoking his own stalled cultivation and the ridicule he had endured.

Wu Qi and the Seven Treasures Team traveled north to train and investigate an ancient record’s secret realm in Lipton Forest. They found a newly built village at the marked location, where armed villagers surrounded them after they approached.

• Seven Treasures Academy opened, drawing more than fifty students away from Shrek Academy and deepening Tang San and his companions’ dislike of it.
• Dugu Bo explained that northern martial tournaments also served as matchmaking events, so Wu Qi redirected the team toward Lipton Forest to train and check for a secret realm.
• The team left their carriage in Spirit Beast Town and followed Wu Qi’s route map to a cliff, where they found a village instead of ruins.
• Wu Qi approached the villagers and said the group wanted to buy food, while Dugu Bo concealed himself nearby.

Wu Qi suspected that the strange village concealed ruins and persuaded the group to leave before investigating further. He arranged for Dugu Bo to scout the village while they trained nearby and stayed ready to move if the ruins opened.

• Zhou Congping welcomed Sun Buyu’s group to the village, and Wu Qi secretly tested the food before eating.
• After leaving, Wu Qi explained that the villagers were Soul Masters and pointed out signs that the village was not ordinary.
• Wu Qi and the others noticed the village had no children, and he concluded that its inhabitants were hiding nearby ruins.
• Dugu Bo warned that the villagers likely had powerful backing, so the group avoided acting rashly.
• Wu Qi asked Dugu Bo to scout the village while the group trained nearby, and Chen Ping suggested forming a soul-hunting team.

Wu Qi and his companions established the Azure Luan Team in Lipton Town and took their first job escorting He Niannian to hunt her first spirit ring. He Niannian revealed that a noble’s murder and another lord’s abuse had left her family poor and without support, and the team learned her talent had been neglected.

• Wu Qi and the others paid for a long stay at an inn, named their Spirit Hunting Squad Azure Luan, and agreed to take clients for a token fee while training.
• The inn proprietor found the Azure Luan Team its first clients: He Niannian and her father, who could afford only a ten-year spirit ring for her.
• Wu Qi accepted the father’s ten Gold Soul Coins, and the team set out with He Niannian to find her first spirit ring.
• He Niannian told Huo Wu that she had reached Soul Power Level ten months earlier but had been ignored by her academy’s Masters despite her Innate Soul Power of level eight.
• He Niannian explained that Lord Charles had promised to take her to Heaven Dou City but was murdered, and that another noble later withheld her father’s wages and beat him.

Wu Qi and the Seven Treasures Team helped He Niannian obtain a four-hundred-year spirit ring before Dugu Bo announced that the ruins had opened. Wu Qi led the team toward the ruins, and everyone ultimately agreed to join the expedition despite the danger.

• Wu Qi warned the group not to investigate Charles’s disappearance or the mysterious mine, then refused to let He Niannian absorb an unsuitable spirit ring.
• Wu Qi and the others found He Niannian a spirit ring close to the limit for a First Spirit Ring, and she reached level fifteen after absorbing it.
• He Niannian’s father thanked Wu Qi and the others, and the group sent him and his daughter off safely.
• Dugu Bo returned with news that the Soul Tool guarding the ruins had malfunctioned and identified the hidden New Mountain Sect as a likely force behind them.
• Feng Xiaotian described the dangers of competing for treasures, while Wu Qi told the team to choose whether to join him.
• Wu Qi and Dugu Bo discussed the New Mountain Sect’s influence, and the Seven Treasures Team decided to join the expedition.

Wu Qi and the Seven Treasures Team infiltrated the ruins while the New Mountain Sect and Hagendas Royal Family fought outside, but the maze delayed their search and they ran into another group of sect disciples. Outside, Dugu Bo ambushed two Soul Douluos as Feng Xiaotian faced the sect group in a narrow corridor.

• Wu Qi’s group found footprints near the ruins and hid while the New Mountain Sect and Hagendas Royal Family clashed outside.
• Wu Qi concealed the Seven Treasures Team in the Ruyi Treasure Pouch, flew down from the cliff in a white cloak, and released them inside the ruins.
• The team struggled to navigate the labyrinth and decided to return to the entrance to search for another mechanism.
• Dugu Bo froze two Soul Douluos with his Eighth Soul Skill, Time Freeze, as they considered joining forces to explore the ruins.
• Feng Xiaotian’s group encountered three New Mountain Sect disciples in a narrow corridor, where the opposing fighters retreated to seek support.

Wu Qi and his companions found the hidden chamber in the ruins and claimed six Soul Bones from a powerful expert’s skeleton. As they left, both the New Mountain Sect and the royal army demanded the treasures, so Wu Qi took to the air to escape.

• Wu Qi directed Huo Wu to use her flames, and Feng Xiaotian killed the three wounded opponents while Chen Ping shielded the group from the blast.
• The explosion drew the New Mountain Sect and royal army into battle, giving Wu Qi’s group time to find a hidden passage behind a wall near the ruins’ entrance.
• Wu Qi and the others entered a secret chamber and discovered six Soul Bones on a skeleton, including a head Soul Bone with especially strong Soul Power fluctuations.
• Wu Qi warned the group against taking more from the chamber, and they stored the Soul Bones before leaving the ruins in the Ruyi Treasure Pouch.
• Zhou Congping demanded Wu Qi hand over the treasures as he emerged, but Wu Qi spread his Soul Bone wings and rose into the air.

Wu Qi and his team hid their involvement in the ruins’ collapse, escaped the Hagen-Dazs Kingdom, and divided the Spirit Bones they had recovered. Dugu Bo discovered that the head Spirit Bone was a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, which Wu Qi accepted as the team’s leader.

• Wu Qi and his companions stayed in Lipton Town and kept searching for herbs while spies investigated the ruins, avoiding suspicion by acting as usual.
• The Seven Treasures Team left Spirit Beast Town, and Dugu Bo rejoined them outside the Hagen-Dazs Kingdom, reporting that people from the New Mountain Sect and royal family had been buried in a collapse at the ruins.
• Dugu Bo explained that the Spirit Bones could be restored by nurturing them with Soul Power, though doing so would temporarily halt the cultivators’ progress.
• Wu Qi proposed giving Dugu Bo the best Spirit Bone for his contribution, but Dugu Bo and the others insisted that Wu Qi deserved it most.
• Dugu Bo recognized the head Spirit Bone as a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, and Wu Qi accepted it and offered each teammate thirty thousand Gold Soul Coins in compensation.
• The team began dividing the remaining Spirit Bones, and Dugu Bo took a Fifty Thousand Year Torso Spirit Bone after noting that the Spirit Master Competition champions would receive three Spirit Bones.

Wu Qi’s team absorbed their soul bones, and Qian Gu Changkong broke through to level forty before they met Tang San’s group in Sunset Forest. Yu Xiaogang and Tang San accused Wu Qi’s team of hoarding Immortal Herbs, but Wu Qi dismissed them and left with his teammates.

• Wu Qi’s team absorbed their soul bones, and Wu Qi gained illusion, spiritual-sharing, and spirit-immunity abilities from his head soul bone.
• Qian Gu Changkong broke through level forty, and the team promised to help him hunt for his fourth Soul Ring.
• A month later, Tang San suggested that the Shrek group search Sunset Forest for Immortal Herbs for Yu Xiaogang.
• Dugu Bo led Wu Qi’s team to find Qian Gu Changkong a six-thousand-year fourth Soul Ring.
• Yu Xiaogang and Tang San accused Wu Qi’s team of selfishly keeping the Immortal Herbs, and Wu Qi rejected their claims.
• Wu Qi called the Shrek group trash and left, while Feng Xiaotian and Huo Wushuang shoved aside Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng.

Wu Qi and his companions clashed with Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong before Dugu Bo intervened, and Tang San seized a chance to speak with him about Dugu Yan’s Martial Soul poison. Tang San proposed using Soul Bones to contain the poison, but Dugu Bo revealed he was not poisoned and had only pretended to be frail, leaving Tang San’s scheme exposed.

• Liu Erlong blocked Wu Qi and his companions, and the two sides argued until they were ready to fight.
• Dugu Bo arrived and stopped the confrontation, while Wu Qi persuaded him to let the group leave.
• Tang San called Dugu Bo back by claiming he knew why Dugu Yan could not control her Martial Soul, then asked to speak privately.
• Tang San explained that Martial Soul poison was harming Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo, and offered to trap the toxins in Soul Bones.
• Dugu Bo challenged Tang San’s proposal, then transformed his grizzled hair into glossy black hair and revealed that his weak appearance had been feigned.

Dugu Bo beat Tang San unconscious and shattered most of Yu Xiaogang’s bones, forcing Shrek to abandon its spirit-ring hunt and seek treatment. Yu Tianheng proposed using Dugu Bo’s grudge with Spirit Hall to arrange revenge, while Dugu Bo stayed in the forest and sensed someone watching him.

• Dugu Bo knocked Tang San unconscious, then struck Yu Xiaogang so severely that Liu Erlong had to use Soul Power to keep him alive.
• Flender stopped Liu Erlong from attacking Dugu Bo and led the Shrek group out of the forest to find treatment for Yu Xiaogang.
• Yu Tianheng proposed shifting the revenge onto Dugu Bo by exploiting his hostility toward Spirit Hall, and Flender reluctantly accepted the plan.
• Dugu Bo remained in the forest and sensed that someone was watching him as the Shrek group moved away.
