• Flender’s group was shocked because Zhu Zhuqing had been Level 27 only a few days earlier.

• Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar introduced their Martial Souls and levels, then Ye Lingling revealed her Level 44 Nine Heart Begonia and four Soul Rings, including two Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings.

• Xiao Wu announced that she had reached level thirty-eight, and Ning Rongrong revealed her level-forty-four Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
• Yu Xiaogang realized Su Yan had awakened their Martial Souls and greatly increased their Soul Power, while Dai Mubai planned to target the support Soul Masters.

• Wang Dong suggested they seek help from Ma Xiaotao, and Ma Xiaotao invited them to come tell her what had happened.

At Shrek Academy, Ye Lingling’s Soul Skill turned the opposing team’s attacks and defenses into healing effects, leaving Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun unable to fight back while Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu beat them. The livestream audience and powerful figures across the continent reacted in disbelief to Number Nine’s absurd ability.

• Su Yan called on Flender to settle the wager now that the exchange between the academies had concluded.

• Yu Xiaogang promised Su Yan that Shrek Academy would pay the debt in ten days, but Su Yan insisted they pay what they could immediately and settle the rest.

• Flender gathered money from Shrek's staff and students, taking Oscar's savings and Ma Hongjun's sixteen Silver Soul Coins.
• Ma Xiaotao, Tang Ya, and the Group Chat members reacted with disbelief and amusement at how little Ma Hongjun had to contribute.

Flender's group struggled to raise money, and Su Yan took their meager contribution while demanding collateral. The chapter left Shrek's finances still far short of the amount needed.

• Su Yan accepted Flender's group's twenty thousand Gold Soul Coins and told them to offer anything valuable as collateral.

• After Su Yan’s group left Shrek Academy, Little Monkey arrived with the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, which fawned on Su Yan and barked like a dog.
• Lingyuan and Ah Yin sensed that the apparent black cat was a Soul Beast over fifty thousand years old.

Su Yan’s group discovered that Little Monkey had captured the powerful Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and brought back Scarlet King, a Three-headed Red Demon Mastiff with over two hundred thousand years of cultivation. Scarlet King demanded to know where it had been taken as the group recognized it as one of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts.

• Xiao Wu identified the black cat as the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and explained its immense power and evil nature.
• Bibi Dong described the tiger’s origins, its fearsome abilities, and why Soul Beasts hunted it down before it could grow stronger.

• Su Yan claimed that Scarlet King had been beaten because he lacked mercy and asked the group whether Little Monkey and Erhei had been right to attack him.

• Su Yan revived Scarlet King after Little Monkey knocked it unconscious, convincing the Three-Eyed Golden Lion that he had healed it rather than attacked it.
