• Zhu Long brought out the Zu Long Pearl, and the Nine-Clawed Thunder Dragon egg trembled as the pearl floated above it.

Lin Zhu and Zhu Long used Zu Long's dragon pearl to awaken Ao Huang, the exiled Thunder Dragon, and declared him the Dragon Clan's new Dragon Emperor. Ao Huang resisted the decision but fell silent when Lin Zhu asserted his authority.

• Ao Huang stayed silent, troubled by his past expulsion from the Dragon Clan.
