• Xiao Tianyang introduced Hong Niang as a ninety-fourth-level Soul Master with the Bloody Banshee Martial Soul who excelled with sabers.

Xiao Tianyang defended Hong Niang when Qian Renxue questioned her identity, then debated Bibi Dong about Evil Martial Souls and who was responsible for Soul Masters going astray. Qian Renxue apologized to Hong Niang, while an awkward misunderstanding about her being called “Third Madam” left Xiao Tianyang blaming Mr. Miao.

• Bibi Dong refused to spar with Hong Niang and challenged Yuwen Chengdu instead, despite Xiao Tianyang warning her about his skill.
• Yuwen Chengdu parried Bibi Dong's spear attacks with Armament Haki as Xiao Tianyang explained the two types of Haki and their place in unarmed combat.
• Yuwen Chengdu knocked Bibi Dong's spear aside and stopped his fist before her nose, winning their contest after more than a hundred exchanges.
• Xiao Tianyang called Huo Wu to take the stage against Hong Niang as Yuwen Chengdu and Bibi Dong stepped down.
• Xiao Tianyang quietly asked Qian Renxue to let go, and she withdrew her hand while still looking displeased.

Xiao Tianyang concluded the Divine Might Legion’s cultivation plan, which left hundreds of soldiers unable to fight, just as the Barbarian Tribe launched a massive assault. He entered the battlefield alone while Bibi Dong directed the others to find ways to support the legion elsewhere.

• Yuwen Chengdu reported that 679 soldiers succeeded, 310 failed, and 11 died during Xiao Tianyang’s cultivation plan.

The Divine Might Legion endured three days and nights of battle as Xiao Tianyang and the commanders were gradually worn down by the Barbarian Tribe. When Huo Wu and Shui Bing'er tried to join the fight, Bibi Dong stopped them and entered the aerial battlefield herself.

• The Barbarian Tribe relentlessly attacked the Giant Formation for three days and nights while Yuwen Chengdu and the commanders held their ground against powerful opponents.

• Huo Wu and Shui Bing'er agreed to go together, but Bibi Dong restrained them and warned them not to throw their lives away.
• Bibi Dong left for the aerial battlefield, deviating from the original plan.

• Xiao Tianyang admitted their chance of winning the war was less than thirty percent.

Xiao Tianyang told Bibi Dong that their odds of defeating the White-robed Venerable’s forces were below thirty percent and explained that his injuries and advancing cultivation left them little time to find a solution. He planned to bluff the newly arrived reinforcements into delaying their attack while they searched for a better way to stop the invasion.

• Bibi Dong asked Xiao Tianyang why he believed their chance of victory was so low.
