Huo Yuhao earned fourth-grade Mecha Master badges, while Tang Wulin revealed his Thousand Forgings talent and became a Level 3 blacksmith. After returning to his family in the Spirit Pagoda, Tang Wulin realized he could afford the Spiritual Item he needed but worried about explaining his purchase to Spirit Pagoda seniors.

• Huo Yuhao agreed to take the fourth-grade assessment, designed and manufactured a fourth-grade Soul Tool, and received two fourth-grade professional badges from Xia Haoxuan.
• Zheng Tianlin and Mu Xi heard that Tang Wulin had completed Thousand Forgings and earned a Level 3 blacksmith badge, leaving them shaken by his talent.

• Tang Wulin realized he had enough money to buy the Spiritual Item needed for the Golden Dragon King Seal, but he worried about how to explain his reason for buying it.

Tang Wulin bought materials to break through the Golden Dragon King Seal, while Huo Yuhao planned to obtain Golden Dragon King bloodline power through Tang Wulin’s Soul Spirit. Class One narrowly defeated Class Two in the tournament, and Luo Yanglu considered establishing Class Zero and speaking with Wu Changkong.

• Tang Wulin reassured his father that he had enough money, then bought Spiritual Items and dragon blood at the Spirit Pagoda and entered a Meditation Room to call for Old Tang.
• Tang San learned that Tang Wulin planned to break through the seal inside the Spirit Pagoda and worried that he might expose him.
• Gu Yuena asked Huo Yuhao how he would extract Golden Dragon King bloodline power, and he explained that he would take it from Tang Wulin’s Soul Spirit instead of his mixed bloodline.
• Gu Yuena moved behind Huo Yuhao to keep him between herself and Tang Wulin, while Sky Dream Ice Silkworm joked that she was becoming like Huo Yuhao.

Luo Yanglu and Wu Changkong introduced themselves as the class’s academic and combat instructors, with Wu Changkong noting that he still needed to learn the abilities of four students.

• Long Hengxu announced Class Zero and named Huo Yuhao, Gu Yuena, Xu Xiaoyan, Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, Wang Jinxi, and Zhang Yangzi as candidates.

• The two teams took their positions at the Training Ground, and Wu Changkong ordered the battle to begin.
• Tang Wulin, Wang Jinxi, and Zhang Yangzi charged as Xu Xiaoyan and Xie Xie held the rear, while Huo Yuhao left one side to Gu Yuena.
• Zhang Yangzi spread darkness across the field, but Gu Yuena illuminated it with light, and Huo Yuhao released mental fluctuations that Wu Changkong recognized as a domain.

Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena defeated Tang Wulin's team in a practice battle, exposing how their mental and elemental abilities overwhelmed their opponents. Wu Changkong resolved to train them, while Luo Yanglu warned that Yuhao did not need his guidance.

• Gu Yuena teleported toward Xu Xiaoyan, but Xie Xie intercepted her as Xu Xiaoyan used Star Wheel Chain on empty air under Huo Yuhao's mental interference.
• Gu Yuena attacked Xie Xie with fire and ice, defeated him, and then sent Xu Xiaoyan out of the field with her space ability.
• Huo Yuhao's mental influence made Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi fight each other, and he swept them out of the field.
• Tang Wulin attacked Huo Yuhao with Blue Silver Grass and a golden-scaled fist, but Huo Yuhao redirected his punch and sent him safely out of the field.
• Wu Changkong praised Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena's extraordinary potential and said he would train them, while Luo Yanglu said Yuhao did not need his guidance.

Tang Wulin rejected Tang San’s attempt to teach him that the strong should freely cause trouble, leaving Tang San uncertain how to guide him while he examined the flawed Golden Dragon King Seal. The next morning, Huo Yuhao’s cooking drew Gu Yuena and the others to breakfast.

• Tang Wulin argued that strength did not justify bullying and said kindness, not fear, made the world peaceful.
• Tang San reconsidered teaching Tang Wulin as Old Tang and reflected on the God Realm War, the Golden Dragon King’s escape, and the flaws in Tang Wulin’s seal.
• Gu Yuena woke to the smell of breakfast and eagerly ate the soup dumplings Huo Yuhao had prepared with Luo Yanglu.
• Huo Yuhao brought Gu Yuena another plate, and Xu Xiaoyan asked Xie Xie whether Gu Yuena and Huo Yuhao had always eaten together when they lived there before.

Huo Yuhao and Luo Yanglu served the students a nourishing breakfast before Luo Yanglu taught them about mechas and Battle Armor. Wu Changkong urged the class to pursue Battle Armor, then led them to combat training.

• Luo Yanglu served the students a breakfast made with Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and Wu Changkong recognized how valuable the ingredients were.
• Luo Yanglu explained mechas and Battle Armor, including their history and the advantages of each path.
• Tang Wulin told Xie Xie he wanted to become a Mecha Master, but Wu Changkong insisted the students should consider becoming Battle Armor Masters.
• Tang Wulin revealed he was a Level 3 Forger, Gu Yuena a Level 3 Designer, and Huo Yuhao a Level 4 Manufacturer.
• Wu Changkong told the students to consider their Sub-professions and led them to the Training Ground for combat training.

Wu Changkong tested Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena, only to be overwhelmed by their abilities and combat skill. He then challenged all seven students together, and afterward admitted that Huo Yuhao was beyond his ability to teach.

• Wu Changkong challenged Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena while suppressing his strength, ignoring Luo Yanglu’s warning to raise his cultivation.

• Wu Changkong raised the challenge to all seven students, and Huo Yuhao gave them Spiritual Detection Sharing to coordinate against him.
• After the battle, Wu Changkong told Luo Yanglu that Huo Yuhao was perfect and beyond his ability to teach.

After the students’ battle, Wu Changkong recognized Huo Yuhao’s exceptional ability to direct the team, and Luo Yanglu brought the group to the Spirit Pagoda for daily Spirit Ascension Platform training. The students admired murals depicting the origins of the human–Soul Beast pact before beginning tests ahead of their training.

• Wu Changkong realized Huo Yuhao’s Spiritual Detection Sharing had anticipated his movements and learned that Gu Yuena was the only teammate who could keep pace with him.
• Luo Yanglu told Wu Changkong that Gu Yuena was Sky Phoenix Douluo’s disciple, while Carefree Douluo planned to send Huo Yuhao to the Spirit Pagoda headquarters without taking him as a disciple.
• Luo Yanglu announced that the students could enter the Spirit Ascension Platform every day, delighting Xu Xiaoyan.
• Tang Wulin explained that the Spirit Pagoda’s murals showed the First Generation Tower Master, the Snow Empress, and Di Tian signing a contract, while Huo Yuhao reflected on the Snow Empress.
• Luo Yanglu led the students underground to undergo physical fitness and Spiritual Power tests before entering the Spirit Ascension Platform.

Luo Yanglu tested Class Zero’s Spiritual Power and physical fitness, revealing Xu Xiaoyan and Tang Wulin’s exceptional results and discussing Huo Yuhao’s plans to fuse with the Evil Eye Tyrant Soul Spirit. After the others left for the Spirit Ascension Platform, Luo Yanglu told Xu Xiaoyan that her classmates had joined the Spirit Pagoda, and she agreed to join and pursue her family’s plan for her Star Wheel Ice Staff and Starry Sky Beast Ancestor.

• Wang Jinxi, Zhang Yangzi, and Xie Xie recorded Spiritual Power scores of 38, 83, and 62, while Xu Xiaoyan and Tang Wulin scored 106 and 135.
• Gu Yuena scored 400, and Luo Yanglu said Huo Yuyao was already at the Spirit Sea Realm rather than testing him.
• Huo Yuhao told Luo Yanglu he planned to fuse with the Evil Eye Tyrant Soul Spirit first.
• Luo Yanglu found Tang Wulin’s physique could withstand a Thousand Year Soul Ring but chose to monitor his Spiritual Power before deciding whether to raise his first Soul Spirit’s level.
• Luo Yanglu sent the other students to the Spirit Ascension Platform with Wu Changkong and asked Xu Xiaoyan whether she would join the Spirit Pagoda; she agreed.
• Xu Xiaoyan explained that fusing with the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor would grant Starlight Blessing, letting her Star Wheel Ice Staff switch between ice and astrological Soul Skills.

Huo Yuhao rescued Xie Xie from the Evil Eye Tyrant in the Spirit Ascension Platform, then discussed the platform’s mysterious energy with Gu Yuena. He revealed that the platform was actually a fragment of the God Realm.

• Luo Yanglu and Wu Changkong watched the Spirit Ascension Platform and saw the Evil Eye Tyrant chase Xie Xie near the Quarantine Zone.
• Huo Yuhao calmed the Evil Eye Tyrant, and Xie Xie learned that it was Huo Yuhao’s Soul Spirit and admitted he had approached the Quarantine Zone out of curiosity.

• Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena defeated simulated Soul Beasts and discussed whether the platform’s Spiritual Energy could be useful to them.
• Huo Yuhao told Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and the Ice Empress that the Spirit Ascension Platform was a God Realm Fragment.

Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena left the low-level Spirit Ascension Platform and learned about the Virtual Battlefield’s valuable rewards. After Gu Yuena told Leng Yaozhu about her Class Zero classmates, Leng Yaozhu grew concerned by how often she mentioned Huo Yuhao and considered visiting East Sea.

• Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena absorbed Spiritual Energy in the Spirit Ascension Platform before leaving with the others, who had reached their limits safely.

• Gu Yuena asked Huo Yuhao about the Virtual Battlefield, and he confirmed that he had entered it before and told her to experience it herself.
• Luo Yanglu and Hua Yichen discussed whether to tell Heavenly Phoenix Madam about Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena, then decided to let the two juniors be.
• Gu Yuena called Leng Yaozhu and mentioned Huo Yuhao repeatedly, prompting Leng Yaozhu to review his abilities and consider visiting East Sea.

Luo Yanglu brought Tang Wulin, Huo Yuhao, Gu Yuena, Xie Xie, and the others into the Spirit Pagoda’s Virtual Battlefield and explained its challenge ranks, rewards, and paths to influential mentors. Gu Yuena and Huo Yuhao entered Purple Grade trials, where Gu Yuena faced Frost Douluo Su Tong and Huo Yuhao found himself fighting a simulated version of himself.

• Luo Yanglu led the group through a Space Gate into the Deep Blue Space and explained the assessment ranks, rewards, and Black Grade requirement for becoming a Titled Douluo’s disciple.
• Huo Yuhao explained that Red Grade candidates could attract the attention of a Limit Douluo or a Vice Tower Master, while completing the third Black Grade round could draw notice from an Eighteen Heavenly Pillars Branch Tower Master.
• Wu Changkong reflected that the Spirit Pagoda was the strongest of the four famous factions because its Eighteen Heavenly Pillars included Super Douluos and powerful Beasts.
• Luo Yanglu set the newcomers’ starting difficulty at Purple Grade, and Gu Yuena selected it before entering her assessment.
• Gu Yuena recognized her opponent as Second Generation Tower Master Frost Douluo Su Tong and realized Huo Yuhao had likely faced similar simulated opponents.
• Huo Yuhao entered his assessment and found himself facing a stronger simulation of himself, which he considered fraudulent.

Huo Yuhao defeated a simulated version of himself in the Spirit Pagoda assessment by using his Spirit Abyss Realm Spiritual Power and space techniques. After learning that Ji Juechen rose from Rank Three Innate Soul Power to become a Rank 97 Super Douluo, Tang Wulin found a new goal to pursue.

• Huo Yuhao overwhelmed the simulated Huo Yuhao with a spiritual attack, bypassed his spatial Soul Tool, and passed the assessment.
• Luo Yanglu and Wu Changkong realized Huo Yuhao had reached the Spirit Abyss Realm at nine years old.
• Tang Wulin and the other students emerged from the Virtual Battlefield after losing at the Purple Grade stages, while Huo Yuhao had passed the Red Grade.
• Luo Yanglu explained that Ji Juechen had Rank Three Innate Soul Power yet became a Rank 97 Super Douluo, and that Spirit Ice Douluo had once said Ji could have surpassed him.
• Tang Wulin, whose Innate Soul Power was also Rank Three, resolved to make Ji Juechen his goal.

Huo Yuhao learned that Gu Yuena failed the assessment to a Soul Tool using his Element Stripping, while Leng Yulai discovered that someone had passed the Red Level Assessment. Months later, Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi attempted their Martial Soul Fusion Skill in the Virtual Battlefield, and Tang Wulin learned that something had happened to Wang Jinxi because of his connection to Tang Wulin’s cultivation.

• Gu Yuena told Huo Yuhao that a Soul Tool using his Element Stripping had defeated her in the assessment.
• Leng Yulai saw that someone had passed the Red Level Assessment and was summoned by Snow Empress to go with her to Heaven Dou City.
• After several months of training, Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi entered a cooperative Virtual Battlefield match and activated their Dark Eagle Dragon Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
• Tang Wulin saw Senior Ouyang Zixin, and Xie Xie teased him before revealing that Teacher Luo had sent him to find Tang Wulin.
• Xie Xie told Tang Wulin that something had happened to Wang Jinxi and that it was connected to Tang Wulin’s cultivation with him.

At the Spirit Pagoda, Tang Wulin learned that his bloodline was mutating Wang Jinxi’s Martial Soul and worked with Huo Yuhao to investigate Jinyu’s bloodline. Huo Yuhao secretly took over Jinyu’s contract to extract its bloodline, prompting Tang San’s Divine Sense to recognize him in alarm.

• Luo Yanglu told Tang Wulin that his bloodline had triggered a beneficial mutation in Wang Jinxi’s Martial Soul, which could end Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi’s Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
• Luo Yanglu revealed that he had traced Tang Wulin’s bloodline to the Golden Dragon and suspected it was connected to the legendary Dragon King.
• Tang Wulin summoned Jinyu at the Soul Spirit Research Institute and agreed to let Huo Yuhao examine its bloodline.
• Huo Yuhao activated a Blood Source Crystal and secretly transferred Jinyu’s contract onto himself so he could extract its bloodline.
• Tang San’s Divine Sense awakened, saw Huo Yuhao, and exclaimed in shock.

Huo Yuhao extracted the Golden Dragon King Bloodline from Jinyu while Tang San’s Divine Sense weighed whether to attack him. Gu Yuena arrived, and her presence revealed her identity as the Silver Dragon King to Tang San’s Divine Sense; Huo Yuhao kept the extraction limited and learned that the God Realm’s war had been far more destructive than expected.

• Luo Yanglu told Gu Yuena that Huo Yuhao and Tang Wulin were at the Soul Spirit Research Institute, so she hurried there to support Huo Yuhao.
• Sky Dream Ice Silkworm urged Electrolux to conceal himself from Tang San’s Divine Sense, which recognized Huo Yuhao as someone who should have died and considered killing him.
• Gu Yuena entered as Huo Yuhao extracted Jinyu’s Golden Dragon King Bloodline, and Tang San’s Divine Sense realized she was the Silver Dragon King.
• Huo Yuhao limited the extraction and inferred that Tang San’s Divine Sense retained its memories and was hesitating to act.
• Gu Yuena said Level One Gods and a Chief God’s Divine Artifact had been lost in the God Realm’s battle, leading Huo Yuhao to suspect the Golden Dragon King had inflicted heavy losses while Tang San was weakened.

Tang San discovered that Gu Yuena was the Silver Dragon King and planned to use her against the Abyss while keeping his Divine Sense hidden. Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao extracted his Silver Dragon King Bloodline and fused it with the Golden Dragon King Bloodline, leaving the unstable mixture to be absorbed into the Ice Empress Martial Soul’s origin.

• Tang San learned that Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena did not know about the Golden Dragon King Seal, then resolved to remain hidden and try to make Gu Yuena and the Abyss fight.
• After Tang Wulin left, Huo Yuhao told Gu Yuena that the hidden presence was the Sea God’s Divine Sense and warned her to be careful.
• Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena walked to the kitchen together, while the Ice Empress cautioned Huo Yuhao that Gu Yuena might be trying to raise his favorability.
• That night, Huo Yuhao traveled to the Undead Demiplane and used Silkworm Transformation to separate the bloodline powers within his body.
• Huo Yuhao gathered his Silver Dragon King Bloodline and merged the extracted Golden Dragon King Bloodline into it, then began fusing the unstable result into the Ice Empress Martial Soul’s origin.

Huo Yuhao discovered that Gu Yuena’s Silver Dragon King bloodline had transformed the Ice Empress Martial Soul, granting it access to elemental powers and strengthening his command of space. He then used Simulation to imitate the Dragon God’s aura, leaving the Soul Beasts in his Semi-Plane kneeling beneath its pressure.

• Huo Yuhao saw crystalline scales appear on his arms and found that Gu Yuena’s Silver Dragon King bloodline had merged throughout the Ice Empress Martial Soul’s origin, suppressing the weaker Golden Dragon King bloodline.
• Huo Yuhao used the altered Martial Soul to summon a flame and explained that it could now mobilize elements, while the Ice Empress and Tian Meng questioned him about the changes.
• Huo Yuhao used the Space Element to teleport twenty meters and said he could also add it to attacks because of his past experience with Space Power.
• Huo Yuhao concluded that the Golden Dragon King bloodline had brought little obvious benefit, while the Ice Empress expected further gains as her Martial Soul continued to evolve.
• At Tian Meng’s suggestion, Huo Yuhao activated his first platinum Soul Ring and used Simulation to create the phantom and pressure of a colossal seven-colored dragon.
• The Soul Beasts Huo Yuhao had turned into Undead Creatures sensed the simulated Dragon God’s Pressure and fell to their knees.

Huo Yuhao used simulated Dragon God aura to subdue undead Dragon Race creatures, then nurtured the Dragon King bloodline in his Ice Empress Martial Soul with Life Energy. He gave Gu Yuena Favor of the Stars for protection, and she reciprocated with a Silver Dragon King's Dragon Scale.

• Huo Yuhao's simulated Dragon God aura made the undead Dragon Race creatures submit, and he considered using it against Dragon Souls in Dragon Valley and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• Huo Yuhao worked with Electrolux to nurture his Ice Empress Martial Soul's bloodline using Life Energy, while Electrolux advised adding Soul Rings from powerful Dragon Race Soul Beasts.
• Huo Yuhao decided to give Gu Yuena Favor of the Stars, and the Lord of Eternity confirmed she could enter its internal space, though her movement there would be limited.
• The next day, Huo Yuhao gave Gu Yuena the bracelet so she could escape danger, explaining that it was a gift between friends.
• Gu Yuena gave Huo Yuhao a small, patterned silver scale, which he recognized as the Silver Dragon King's Dragon Scale.
