Chapter Summaries

Qian Renxue watched a simulation in which Bibi Dong trusted Yu Xiaogang and helped him rise to fame as a Martial Soul theorist, despite his theories largely compiling existing knowledge. The simulation ended as Yu Xiaogang introduced specific limits for the age of Soul Rings, leaving Qian Renxue stunned by his claims.

• Yu Xiaogang apologized for asking to enter Spirit Hall’s secret collection, and Bibi Dong accepted his apology.
• Yu Xiaogang abandoned his search for a way to evolve Luo San Pao and decided to research Martial Soul theory, with Bibi Dong promising to help him.

• With Bibi Dong’s support, Yu Xiaogang became famous as a Martial Soul Theory Master in Spirit City and across the Soul Master World.
• Yu Xiaogang introduced the Soul Ring Absorption Limit Theory, claiming specific maximum ages for the first three Soul Rings, and Qian Renxue was left incredulous.

Qian Renxue watched a simulation in which Bibi Dong believed Yu Xiaogang’s theories, fell in love with him, and defied Qian Xunji to stay with him. The simulation ended with Qian Xunji assaulting Bibi Dong, leaving Qian Renxue horrified and questioning whether that was how she had been born.

• Qian Renxue condemned Yu Xiaogang’s Soul Ring Absorption Limit Theory as plagiarized and dangerous because it ignored differences between Soul Masters’ physiques.
• The simulation showed Bibi Dong trusting Yu Xiaogang’s theories, admiring him, and developing feelings for him.
• Bibi Dong confessed to Yu Xiaogang, and after initially refusing, he agreed to become her partner.
• When Qian Xunji discovered their relationship, Bibi Dong defended Yu Xiaogang and threatened to elope with him.
• Qian Xunji confined Bibi Dong in a secret chamber, then attacked her as Secret Chamber Douluo.
• Qian Renxue was devastated by the revelation and wondered whether Qian Xunji’s assault was how she had been born.

Qian Renxue watched a simulation reveal that Bibi Dong’s hatred stemmed from Qian Xunji’s abuse and that she planned to use Spirit Hall to take revenge on the Qian family and the continent. The chapter ended with Qian Renxue learning that Tang Hao’s wife was a transformed hundred-thousand-year spirit beast and suspecting Tang San was born of that union.

• The simulation showed that Qian Xunji forced Bibi Dong to drive Yu Xiaogang away, and Bibi Dong later gave birth to Qian Renxue while despising the child as a symbol of her suffering.
• Bibi Dong trained in the City of Slaughter, passed Hell Road, gained a Talent Domain, and learned she could begin the Rakshasa Nine Trials by killing a Six-winged Angel Soul Master.
• Qian Renxue realized Bibi Dong had rejected her throughout her childhood and felt conflicted about Bibi Dong’s later sacrifice to protect her.

• Qian Renxue learned that Tang Hao’s wife was a transformed hundred-thousand-year spirit beast and concluded that Tang San was likely their son.

Qian Renxue learned from the simulation that her mother had poisoned Qian Xunji and that Qian Daoliu had concealed the truth, leaving her devastated and confused about who was right or wrong. Seeking advice, she visited Ye Luo and described the dilemma as a friend's, but he suspected she meant herself.

• Qian Renxue learned that her mother had killed Qian Xunji with poisoned chicken soup, begun the Rakshasa Nine Trials, and become Spirit Hall's Pope.

• Qian Renxue struggled with the conflicting wrongs between her parents and decided Ye Luo might help her make sense of them.
• Qian Renxue visited Ye Luo in Swan Territory and asked his opinion about a troubled friend.
• Ye Luo questioned whether the friend was actually Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue asked Ye Luo to judge a friend's family tragedy, and he argued that her mother bore greater blame for betraying the sect and later killing her father. Qian Renxue thanked him for clarifying her doubts, then offered to send him Soul Beast corpses and asked whether he would enroll in the Royal Academy.

• Qian Renxue described how her friend's mother betrayed her sect for love, was forced apart from her lover by her father, and later poisoned him to death.
• Ye Luo recognized the story as the past of Qian Xunji, Bibi Dong, and Yu Xiaogang, but wondered why Qian Renxue knew about it so early.
• Ye Luo said there was no absolute right or wrong, but judged the mother's betrayal and her father's murder more serious than the father's coercion.
• Qian Renxue accepted Ye Luo's reasoning, thanked him, and said she would pass his words on to her friend.
• Qian Renxue said she had collected Soul Beast corpses for Ye Luo and asked whether he wanted to enroll in the Royal Academy.

Ye Luo accepted Qian Renxue’s help to enroll at Heaven Dou Royal Academy, where he hoped to find books about Plant Soul Beasts and improve his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul. After a month of accelerated cultivation, he arrived at the academy and enrolled in Class A, while still wondering why Qian Renxue treated him so generously.

• Ye Luo agreed to enroll at Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and Qian Renxue promised to handle the paperwork and gave him a carriage pulled by a Mixed-blood Unicorn Horse.
• After returning to Heaven Dou Imperial City, Ye Luo used Soul Beast corpses as fertilizer for his Blue Silver Grass fields and raised his Soul Power to nearly level six over the next month.
• On the academy’s opening day, Ye Luo rode Qian Renxue’s carriage to Heaven Dou Royal Academy and successfully enrolled in Class 1, Grade 1, Class A of the Junior Division.
• Ye Luo avoided exclusion and provocation because other students inferred from his luxurious carriage that he had powerful connections.

After registering at Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Ye Luo visited the library and then went to Heaven Dou Imperial City to buy Whale Rubber. Qian Renxue arrived at Seven Treasure Pavilion and caught him leaving with it, but she said she believed his cover story.

• Ye Luo read about Plant Soul Beasts in the academy library and ate lunch in the cafeteria.
• Ye Luo asked Lin Ge where to buy Whale Rubber, claiming it was a gift for a servant, and Lin Ge directed him to Seven Treasure Pavilion.

• Qian Renxue came to Seven Treasure Pavilion after learning Ye Luo had entered the city and waited for him outside.
• Ye Luo hid the piece of Whale Rubber in his hand and told Qian Renxue it was a gift for a servant, and Qian Renxue said she believed him.

Ye Luo confessed to Qian Renxue that he was buying Whale Rubber to improve his constitution, and she offered to help him find higher-quality supplies. Over the next six months, he befriended Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling at the academy library and improved his cultivation enough to break through to level ten.

• Ye Luo told Qian Renxue why he wanted Whale Rubber, and she agreed to find thousand-year or ten-thousand-year Whale Rubber and a Fire Attribute Soul Master to soften it.
• After ten simulations, Qian Renxue discovered that the Simulator was upgrading at only 1% progress and could not use it again for the time being.
• Ye Luo settled into a routine of attending Heaven Dou Royal Academy, reading in its library, and cultivating at the Blue Silver Grass training ground.
• Ye Luo recognized Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling in the library, gradually befriended them, and became like a sweet-talking little brother to them.
• After cultivating for less than a year with the help of the expanding Blue Silver Grass training ground, Ye Luo broke through to level ten.

Ye Luo began compressing his Soul Power while waiting for Qian Renxue to return from her year-long border inspection. Meanwhile, Dugu Bo became a Titled Douluo but refused Bibi Dong’s demand to join Spirit Hall; as Yue Guan pursued him, Qian Renxue intervened and protected him.

• Ye Luo learned Qian Renxue had left on a year-long mission, so he continued cultivating and began compressing his Soul Power within the limits of his body.
• After half a year of cultivation, Dugu Bo broke through to Level 90, hunted a ninety-thousand-year-old Jade Crystal Poisonous Dragon, and obtained his Ninth Soul Ring.
• Bibi Dong ordered Dugu Bo to join Spirit Hall, and when he refused, she sent Yue Guan to pursue and kill him.
• Dugu Bo fled from Yue Guan and reached Qian Renxue’s carriage, where he begged her to save him.
• Qian Renxue refused Yue Guan’s demand to hand over Dugu Bo and declared him under the Heaven Dou Empire’s protection, forcing Yue Guan to withdraw.

• Dugu Bo thanked Qian Renxue for saving him and explained that Bibi Dong had sent Yue Guan after he refused to submit to Spirit Hall.
• Qian Renxue flew to Spirit City, borrowed Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan’s Illustrated Record of Immortal Herbs, and briefly visited her grandfather, Qian Daoliu.
• Months later, Qian Renxue returned to Heaven Dou Imperial City after inspecting the empire’s borders and asked Dugu Bo to show her his medicine garden.
• Qian Renxue introduced Dugu Bo to Ye Luo, who learned that she had rescued him from Yue Guan while leading the Royal Knights.
• Ye Luo recalled Qian Renxue’s past actions and concluded that she was a person reborn from the future.

Ye Luo deduced that Qian Renxue had been reborn, then used his knowledge of the Green Phosphorus Poison to win Dugu Bo’s trust and become his adopted grandson. Dugu Bo invited Ye Luo and Qian Renxue to his Medicine Garden, and they set off for Sunset Forest and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye.

• Ye Luo reasoned that Qian Renxue’s actions could only be explained if she were a Reborn Person, but hid his suspicions from her.
• Ye Luo greeted Dugu Bo with exaggerated respect and seized the chance to call him Grandfather Dugu.
• Ye Luo told Dugu Bo that he had befriended Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling at the Royal Academy and proposed storing their accumulated Green Phosphorus Poison in Spirit Bones.

• Qian Renxue asked to visit Dugu Bo’s Medicine Garden, and Dugu Bo invited Ye Luo to join them.
• Ye Luo and Qian Renxue left Heaven Dou Imperial City with Dugu Bo for Sunset Forest, while Ye Luo eagerly anticipated reaching the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye.

Qian Renxue and Ye Luo gained permission to choose herbs, and Ye Luo secured several he believed could strengthen him, including the Ink Jade Divine Bamboo shoots, Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, and Infernal Delicate Apricot.

• Dugu Bo led Ye Luo and Qian Renxue through Sunset Forest’s poison traps to his medicine garden at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye.
• Ye Luo recognized the garden’s Immortal Grade herbs, including the Ink Jade Divine Bamboo, and suspected its shoots could help evolve his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul.
• Qian Renxue told Dugu Bo that Dragon Blood Grass could evolve the Dugu family’s Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul, then asked permission to pick herbs.
• Dugu Bo agreed that Qian Renxue and Ye Luo could choose herbs, and Qian Renxue let Ye Luo pick first.
• Ye Luo chose Ink Jade Divine Bamboo shoots, Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, and Infernal Delicate Apricot, despite Dugu Bo warning that the last two were dangerous Poisonous Grass.
• With Qian Renxue supporting Ye Luo, Dugu Bo allowed him to take the herbs, and Ye Luo planned to consume the bamboo shoots before using the two grasses for Ice Fire Tempering.

Ye Luo evolved his Blue Silver Grass into the Blue Silver Spirit Jade Vine and entered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye for Ice Fire Tempering. Dugu Yan’s Martial Soul also evolved after she consumed Dragon Blood Grass, and the Simulator’s upgrade finally completed after more than a year.

• Qian Renxue harvested Immortal Grades, gave Dugu Bo an Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid, and handed Ye Luo an Ink Jade Divine Bamboo Shoot.
• Ye Luo consumed the Ink Jade Divine Bamboo Shoot and evolved his Blue Silver Grass into the Blue Silver Spirit Jade Vine.

• Dugu Bo took Dugu Yan to Sunset Forest to hunt for a Soul Ring, while Ye Luo remained in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye.
• More than a year after the Simulator began upgrading, the upgrade was complete.

The simulation revealed that Ye Luo had taken Tang Hao’s hidden Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone and fused with it, transforming his appearance and advancing his cultivation. Qian Renxue accompanied him and Dugu Bo to the Star Dou Great Forest, where Ye Luo gained a powerful fifth Soul Ring and an External Soul Bone.

• Qian Renxue recognized the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone and Strange Blue Silver Emperor near Nuoding City as treasures Tang Hao had likely hidden, and wondered how Ye Luo had found them.
• Ye Luo fled to Qingshan Town, fused with the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone in a cave for half a month, and emerged with a radically changed appearance.
• Qian Renxue visited Ye Luo, accepted his explanation that an opportunity had evolved his Martial Soul, and learned he had reached level fifty Quasi Soul King.
• Qian Renxue and Dugu Bo accompanied Ye Luo to the Star Dou Great Forest, where they found a Thunderclap Hellvine with a cultivation of just over twenty thousand years.
• Ye Luo killed the Thunderclap Hellvine, absorbed its Soul Ring to gain Thunderclap Prison, and unexpectedly obtained an External Soul Bone.

Qian Renxue learned that Tang Hao had massacred Martial Soul Branch Hall households and arranged for Qian Daoliu’s strongest worshippers to hunt him down. Tang Hao was executed, while Ye Luo continued advancing in cultivation and obtained his sixth and seventh soul rings.

• Porcupinefish Douluo reported that Tang Hao had slaughtered the households of several Martial Soul Branch Halls, and Qian Renxue decided to tell Qian Daoliu and request vengeance.
• Qian Renxue gave Immortal Herbs to the worshippers, helping Golden Crocodile reach Level 99 and several others break through, then asked Qian Daoliu to send them after Tang Hao.
• Golden Crocodile, Qing Luan, Mighty Lion, and Light Feather left Spirit City to hunt Tang Hao, while Yue Guan accepted Qian Renxue’s Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum and allegiance.
• Snake Lance Douluo reported that the worshippers had executed Tang Hao after more than half a month of pursuit.
• Over the next six years, Ye Luo reached the Soul Saint realm and, with Qian Renxue and Dugu Bo’s help, obtained a thirty-thousand-year Tree of Life and a fifty-thousand-year Star Rhaphidophora as soul-ring targets.

Qian Renxue’s simulation showed her intercepting Xiao Wu and taking her to Spirit City, then arranging for Ye Luo to face Tang San’s Shrek Team in the preliminaries to humiliate Yu Xiaogang. Ye Luo offered to disguise his Soul Rings and suppress his apparent cultivation for an even more spectacular victory.

• Qian Renxue decided to use Tang San as leverage to make Xiao Wu leave with her, while keeping Tang San in Heaven Dou to compete against Ye Luo.
• After Shrek Academy arrived at Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Qian Renxue revealed Xiao Wu’s identity and used Snake Lance Douluo’s strength to force her to agree to leave.

• Ye Luo offered to disguise his Soul Rings and suppress his apparent cultivation to the Soul Ancestor realm for an even more decisive victory.

Qian Renxue arranged for Ye Luo to compete for Heaven Dou Team Two, where he defeated the Shrek Team in an exhibition match and exposed Tang San’s Blue Silver Grass weakness. Afterward, she spread criticism of Yu Xiaogang across Heaven Dou Imperial City, leaving his reputation ruined and his relationship with Tang San strained.

• Ning Fengzhi praised the teams from all four Four Element Academy at the opening ceremony, while Salas drew the Shrek Team to face Heaven Dou Team Two.

• Tang San’s Blue Silver Grass became limp against Ye Luo’s Martial Soul, and Ye Luo led Heaven Dou Team Two to victory.
• Qian Renxue arranged a public campaign questioning Yu Xiaogang’s theories and condemning his guidance of Tang San.
• Yu Xiaogang became a laughingstock in Heaven Dou Imperial City, and Tang San began doubting him as their relationship grew tense.

Qian Renxue’s simulation exposed Yu Xiaogang’s lack of achievement while planning to kill Tang San before he became a god. Chrysanthemum Douluo’s ambush failed when a burst of blood-red light made Tang San disappear, and the convoy later reached Spirit City as Yu Xiaogang arrived ahead of it.

• Qian Renxue used Shi Nian’s Seven-in-One Fusion Skill research to further damage Yu Xiaogang’s reputation after Shrek lost to the Canghui Team.

• Qian Renxue learned that Yu Xiaogang had gone to Spirit City to ask Bibi Dong about cultivating Twin Martial Souls, and her future self had him captured and imprisoned.
• Yu Xiaogang was tortured by Fallen Soul Masters while Shrek Academy searched for him; Liu Erlong accused Bibi Dong, who denied keeping him.
• Ye Luo led Heaven Dou Team Two to win the tournament, and his team retained the three Champion Reward Spirit Bones.
• Qian Renxue’s future self crippled Yu Xiaogang, released him into the wilderness, and led him to believe Bibi Dong had arranged his imprisonment.
• Ye Luo accepted a Count Title and a fief in Snow Spirit Province, where he planned to plant Blue Silver Grass, and stayed in contact with Qian Renxue for five years.
• Qian Renxue invited Ye Luo to Xue Ke’s graduation performance and sensed that he had Titled Douluo-level power and the aura of a God.
