Chapter Summaries

Yu Tianheng defeated Xie Yue with his Self-Created Soul Skill, Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation, securing Imperial Dou a place in the grand finals after Spirit Hall conceded the remaining match. At Pope's Palace, Xie Yue proposed a plan for the Golden Generation to overcome Imperial Dou in the team battle.

• Yu Tianheng clashed with Xie Yue's Round Moon using Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation, leaving both fighters badly injured and Xie Yue unable to continue.
• Xie Yue conceded, and the referee declared Yu Tianheng the winner.
• Tang Xuan confirmed with Bibi Dong that Imperial Dou had secured a finals spot, and Bibi Dong announced that Martial Soul Hall would face Shrek for the other place.
• Tang Xuan returned to the resting room with Sword Tower and gave Yu Tianheng Dragon Ganoderma Leaves to aid his recovery.
• At Pope's Palace, Hu Liena admitted that Tang Xuan made Imperial Dou difficult to defeat, but Xie Yue proposed baiting Yu Tianheng into using Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation and using the Martial Soul Fusion Skill to hold Tang Xuan back.

Xie Yue devised a plan for fighting Tang Xuan, while Bibi Dong warned Hu Liena not to underestimate Shrek. During the Spirit Hall–Shrek match, Tang San used Ma Hongjun as a shield to save himself, and Yu Xiaogang defended the tactic, breaking Flender and Liu Erlong’s trust in him.

• Xie Yue proposed a plan to exploit Tang Xuan’s possible lapse in attention, and Hu Liena accepted it despite her worries.
• Bibi Dong told Hu Liena to focus on the afternoon’s team battle and warned her that Shrek, especially Tang San, should not be underestimated.
• Spirit Hall and Shrek began their match with their main lineups, including the still-injured Yan and Xie Yue and Xiao Wu.
• Yan launched magma at Tang San, who used Mother Entanglement to pull Ma Hongjun into its path as a human shield, leaving Ma Hongjun unconscious.
• Flender confronted Yu Xiaogang for sacrificing Ma Hongjun, but Yu Xiaogang defended Tang San’s choice as a tactic for the greater good.
• Flender and Liu Erlong were horrified by Yu Xiaogang’s response, and Liu Erlong moved away from him.

Tang San’s desperate hidden-weapon attack failed to hurt most of the Martial Soul Hall Team, and Xie Yue kicked him out of the arena as Shrek secured third place. Tang Xuan then took the injured Shrek members for treatment, leaving Yu Xiaogang afraid to approach him about Tang San and Xiao Wu.

• Tang Xuan watched Tang San and considered how to deal with him, while Shrek began losing after Ma Hongjun left the match.
• Tang San refused to concede and used Bat Wing Reincarnation with Blue Silver Grass fragments, but the attack barely injured the Martial Soul Hall Team’s support-type Soul Ancestor.
• Xie Yue mocked Tang San and kicked him out of the arena, confirming Shrek’s third-place finish and sending Imperial Dou and the Martial Soul Hall Team to the final.
• Flender and Liu Erlong carried the injured Shrek members away, and Flender asked Tang Xuan and Ye Lingling to treat them.
• Yu Xiaogang tried to ask Tang Xuan to treat Tang San and Xiao Wu, but Tang Xuan’s gaze frightened him into retreating.

After Shrek's tournament defeat, Flender decided to close the academy and withdraw from public life, but Tang Xuan persuaded him and Zhao Wuji to join the Mysterious Heavy Sect. Flender accepted a role training flying Martial Soul users and asked to bring Shrek's other founding elders with them.

• Ye Lingling healed Ma Hongjun and warned that he needed to rest and avoid fighting, Soul Power use, and long travel for a day or two.
• Qin Ming urged Flender to expel Yu Xiaogang, but Flender said the tournament was over, Tang San and Xiao Wu had graduated, and he planned to close Shrek Academy.
• Tang Xuan invited Flender and Zhao Wuji to join the Mysterious Heavy Sect, and Qin Ming encouraged Flender to accept rather than retire in seclusion.
• Tang Xuan described how Flender could train disciples with flying Martial Souls, prompting Flender to decide to join and establish a special Shrek Academy within the sect.
• Zhao Wuji agreed to teach assault- and defense-type ground fighters, and Flender asked Tang Xuan to let Shrek's other founding elders join as well.

Liu Erlong abandoned her attachment to Yu Xiaogang and joined the Mysterious Heavy Sect, while Tang Xuan prepared for the tournament finals and negotiated with Xue Qinghe over the championship rewards. The chapter ended with Tang Xuan promising to win decisively, unaware that Yu Xiaogang had agreed to attend the finals with Shrek Academy.

• Liu Erlong told Tang Xuan she would rather follow Flender than entrust herself to the changed Yu Xiaogang, and Tang Xuan welcomed her into the Mysterious Heavy Sect as its overseer of punishments.
• Tang Xuan instructed Flender to bring Shrek's members to watch the finals, anticipating that Bibi Dong might act against Xiao Wu and Tang Hao.
• Bibi Dong invited Shrek Academy to the finals, and Yu Xiaogang first refused before agreeing because Tang San and Xiao Wu were too injured and exhausted to leave Spirit City.
• Xue Qinghe visited Tang Xuan during his cultivation and urged him to defeat the Martial Soul Hall Team and claim the three Soul Bones.
• Tang Xuan accepted Xue Qinghe's promise to ensure the rewards were handed over and pledged to win the finals decisively.

As the tournament grand final approached, Bibi Dong worried about Tang Xuan’s strength and warned Ghost Douluo against attacking him. Qian Renxue confronted Bibi Dong over the Soul Bone reward, and the chapter ended with both teams assembled for the final.

• Xie Yue briefed the Spirit Hall Academy Team on its strategy, and Ghost Douluo warned the Golden Generation about the consequences of defeat.
• Bibi Dong cautioned Ghost Douluo not to underestimate Tang Xuan and forbade him from acting against anyone without her order.
• Qian Renxue demanded that the three Soul Bones be awarded regardless of the grand final’s result and threatened to have her grandfather remove Bibi Dong as Pope.
• The next morning, Tang Xuan led the Imperial Dou Fighting Team into the arena as the Spirit Hall Academy Team approached, and the referee announced that the final would begin in fifteen minutes.

The Martial Soul Hall Team used its numerical advantage and Demon Charm fusion to trap Tang Xuan while Yan attacked Dugu Yan. Tang Xuan endured Demon Charm’s suppression and blocked Xie Yue and Hu Liena’s surprise strike by sensing their killing intent.

• Xie Yue rallied the Martial Soul Hall Team, and the seven members entered the arena before Imperial Dou’s five contestants.
• Both teams revealed their strength, and the Martial Soul Hall Team’s members were shaken by Imperial Dou’s Soul Kings and black Spirit Rings.
• The Martial Soul Hall Team’s support members pinned Yu Tianheng down while Hu Liena and Xie Yue fused into Demon Charm.
• Tang Xuan told Dugu Yan to protect Ning Rongrong and Ye Lingling, then entered Demon Charm’s red mist to test its effects.
• Yan attacked Dugu Yan, who held him off with support from Ning Rongrong and Ye Lingling.
• Xie Yue and Hu Liena attacked Tang Xuan with enhanced Moon Blades, but Tang Xuan blocked them and explained that he sensed their killing intent.

Tang Xuan defeated Xie Yue and Hu Liena’s Demon Charm by absorbing its red mist with Return to Ruins. He redirected the absorbed energy, combined with Return to Dust, at Yan and knocked him out of the fight.

• Xie Yue attacked Tang Xuan with Round Moon, but Tang Xuan revealed his Clumsy Intent Sword Art and began overpowering Demon Charm.
• Tang Xuan unleashed Return to Ruins, absorbed Demon Charm’s red mist, and forced Xie Yue and Hu Liena out of their fusion state.
• Tang Xuan sent the absorbed energy toward Yan as he fought Dugu Yan.
• Yan tried to block and dodge, but Tang Xuan’s combined attacks struck him and left him unable to fight.

Imperial Dou defeated the Martial Soul Hall Team and claimed the championship, with Tang Xuan receiving the three top-grade Soul Bones. Bibi Dong failed to recruit him, while Tang San watched the prize go to his rival with jealousy.

• Dugu Yan spread her Jade Phosphorous Poison Swamp across the arena, and Yu Tianheng incapacitated the Martial Soul Hall Team with lightning attacks.
• Xue Qinghe pressed Bibi Dong to announce the result, and she declared the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team the winner.
• Bibi Dong summoned Tang Xuan to claim the three top-grade Soul Bones and invited him to join Spirit Hall, but he refused.
• Tang Xuan stored the Soul Bones in his Soul Tool and returned to Imperial Dou as Tang San watched with envy, especially coveting the Spirit Concentrated Wisdom Skull.

Tang Xuan distributed the Soul Bones before Bibi Dong exposed Xiao Wu as a Hundred-thousand-year-old Shapeshifting Soul Beast and ordered her arrest. Tang San declared his love for Xiao Wu and vowed to protect her as Bibi Dong ordered Chrysanthemum and Ghost to attack.

• Tang Xuan gave the Wind Chasing Left Leg Bone to Sister Yanzi, kept the Spirit Skull, placed the Flame Right Arm Bone in the Sect Treasury, and promised Ye Lingling a reward.
• Bibi Dong stopped Shrek Academy from leaving and ordered Chrysanthemum and Ghost to seize Xiao Wu.
• Ning Fengzhi briefly obstructed the arrest, then stepped aside after Bibi Dong threatened the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
• Bibi Dong revealed that Xiao Wu was a Hundred-thousand-year-old Shapeshifting Soul Beast, and Xiao Wu confirmed she had escaped Bibi Dong's earlier hunt.
• Tang San called Xiao Wu his Younger Sister and lover, embraced her, and vowed that Spirit Hall would have to kill him to take her.
• Bibi Dong ordered Chrysanthemum and Ghost to make their move.

As Bibi Dong sent Chrysanthemum Ghost after Xiao Wu, Flender and Liu Erlong revealed that the Golden Iron Triangle could no longer use its Martial Soul Fusion Skill, and Yu Xiaogang was unable to intervene. Tang Hao then appeared to save Tang San and Xiao Wu, only to face Bibi Dong and six other Titled Douluo before swinging his giant Clear Sky Hammer at Pope's Palace.

• Chrysanthemum Ghost moved to capture Xiao Wu, and Tang San stepped in while Yu Xiaogang demanded Flender and Liu Erlong help with their Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
• Flender and Liu Erlong said their bond with Yu Xiaogang had broken, and their summoned Martial Souls could no longer fuse into the Golden Sacred Dragon.
• Dragon Duke and Snake Grandma brought the others to Tang Xuan's side, while Yu Xiaogang stayed rooted in place, apparently restrained by Bibi Dong's Mental Power.
• Tang Hao arrived, blasted Chrysanthemum Ghost away, and reunited with Tang San after eight years apart.
• Bibi Dong gathered six other Titled Douluo beside her, but Tang Hao enlarged his Clear Sky Hammer and swung it toward Pope's Palace.

Tang Hao attacked Spirit Hall and escaped with Tang San and Xiao Wu, disrupting Bibi Dong’s plans. After leaving Spirit City, Tang Xuan and his allies headed toward Heaven Dou City to absorb their Soul Bones, while Tang Xuan said Ning Rongrong’s Sixth Soul Ring would have to wait until they handled another matter.

• Bibi Dong and the other Titled Douluo confronted Tang Hao’s hammer strike, but Tang Hao escaped with the unconscious Tang San and Xiao Wu after vowing revenge on Spirit Hall.
• Tang Xuan sent Tang Hao a message to meet him, keeping Tang Hao’s whereabouts tied to his plans for Ning Rongrong’s Sixth Soul Ring and Ye Lingling’s first Soul Bone.
• Bibi Dong rejected a proposal to declare war on Tang Hao and ordered Ning Fengzhi’s group to leave Spirit City.
• Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and the others departed with the Imperial Dou team and the Shrek group, while Flender woke Yu Xiaogang and took him along.
• On the road, the group discussed Tang Hao’s strength and planned to return to Heaven Dou City so they could absorb their Soul Bones.
• Ning Rongrong asked Tang Xuan about her Sixth Soul Ring, and he said he had an idea but that they needed to do something else first.

Tang Xuan arranged for Dai Mubai to receive poison that could destroy Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun’s foundations, then traveled to meet Tang Hao, hoping to learn where Tang Hao and Xiao Wu were. After secretly marking Tang Hao, Tang Xuan confronted him and asked about Tang San and Xiao Wu.

• Dai Mubai asked Tang Xuan to get poison for Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun, and Dugu Bo gave him a jade bottle of poison that could destroy foundations.
• Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing left for the Star Luo Empire, while Tang Xuan told Ning Fengzhi that he planned to meet Tang Hao and was interested in Tang Hao and Xiao Wu’s valuable spoils.
• Tang Xuan flew toward the meeting place as Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, Dugu Bo, and Ning Rongrong followed and protected him from the shadows.
• Tang Xuan secretly placed a Space Mark on Tang Hao, who did not notice it, then appeared and asked where Tang San and Xiao Wu were.
• Tang Hao warned Tang Xuan not to set his sights on Xiao Wu.

Tang Xuan explained why Xiao Wu’s identity had been exposed and demanded that Tang Hao fulfill his final favor by sending him to Slaughter City in two or three years. Tang Hao worried about the danger, but Tang Xuan insisted he would go regardless of Chen Xin’s approval.

• Tang Xuan told Tang Hao that Xiao Wu’s aura leaked because Tang Hao had split the Breath-Concealing Grass between her and Tang San, weakening its effects.
• Tang Hao realized he had overlooked Xiao Wu’s unstable aura while distracted by his wife and Tang San’s one-ring Clear Sky Hammer.
• Tang Xuan refused to provide another Breath-Concealing Grass, explaining that he had only possessed one and had never promised to fully conceal Xiao Wu.
• Tang Xuan asked Tang Hao to send him to Slaughter City in two or three years, intending to reduce the risks of his training and deter the King of Slaughter.
• Tang Hao questioned whether Chen Xin approved and warned Tang Xuan about Slaughter City, but Tang Xuan said he would go regardless and demanded to know whether Tang Hao agreed.

Tang Xuan agreed to meet Tang Hao at Slaughter City in two or three years, then explained to his companions that he sought its divine inheritance despite the danger. The group followed Tang Hao, planning to capture Xiao Wu and locate the Blue Silver Emperor’s remains and the Blue Silver Forest.

• Tang Hao agreed to Tang Xuan’s request, hoping Tang Xuan’s time in Slaughter City would improve Tang San’s chances there, and Tang Xuan arranged to meet him outside the city in two or three years.
• Tang Xuan reappeared with Sword Tower, Dugu Bo, and Ning Rongrong, and Dugu Bo described Slaughter City’s lethal rules and sealed Soul Skills.
• Tang Xuan told his companions he wanted Slaughter City’s Slaughter Domain and the chance to pursue the Asura God’s inheritance, promising he would go only after obtaining his Sixth Soul Ring and soul bones.
• Chen Xin asked whether Tang Xuan could still sense Tang Hao, and Tang Xuan confirmed it before leading the group after him.
• Tang Xuan’s plan was to let Dugu Bo capture Xiao Wu after she was released, while Tang Xuan tracked Tang Hao and Tang San to the waterfall canyon hiding the Blue Silver Emperor’s bones and the nearby Blue Silver Forest.

Tang Xuan and his companions secretly watched Tang Hao reveal the truth about Tang San’s mother before Xiao Wu fled. Tang Xuan sent Dugu Bo and Chen Xin to capture her, hoping to use her to lure out the Titan Giant Ape for his Sixth Soul Ring.

• Tang Hao told Xiao Wu that he supported her relationship with Tang San and revealed that Tang San’s mother had been a Shapeshifting Soul Beast.

• Tang Xuan told Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong that Xiao Wu’s Soul Ring was intended for Ning Rongrong’s Martial Soul Avatar, not her Sixth Soul Ring.
• Tang Xuan explained that he planned to use Xiao Wu to lure out the Titan Giant Ape for his own Sixth Soul Ring.

Tang Xuan’s group captured Xiao Wu and followed Tang Hao and Tang San to a mountain range near Heaven Dou City. Tang Xuan then located the Blue Silver Forest and summoned the others before approaching it.

• Dugu Bo returned with a poisoned, barely conscious Xiao Wu, and Tang Xuan put her in the Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch to keep her alive until he could absorb her.
• Tang Hao and Tang San set out for the Heaven Dou Empire, and Tang Xuan’s group followed them for half a month to a mountain range near Heaven Dou City.
• Tang Xuan identified the nearby Blue Silver Forest as the place where the Blue Silver Emperor was hidden and sent Chen Xin, Dugu Bo, and himself to search in separate directions.
• Tang Xuan found the Blue Silver Forest at dusk and crushed a jade tube to call the others before entering, concerned about Ning Rongrong’s safety.

Tang Xuan led Chen Xin, Ning Fengzhi, Dugu Bo, and Ning Rongrong into the Blue Silver Forest to obtain a Spirit Ring from the eighty-five-thousand-year-old Blue Silver King. After Ning Rongrong’s aura overwhelmed the Blue Silver King, Tang Xuan rejected its plea for Spirit Beasts’ lives and insisted they needed its Spirit Ring to survive.

• Tang Xuan led the group into the Blue Silver Forest, where the Blue Silver King warned them away through Mental Power.
• Chen Xin sensed a powerful presence, and Tang Xuan identified it as the eighty-thousand-year-old Blue Silver King.
• The Blue Silver King realized the group intended to hunt it and argued that Ning Rongrong could not withstand its Spirit Ring.
• Ning Rongrong released her Martial Soul and the aura of Lovesick Heartbreak Red, forcing the Blue Silver King and the surrounding Blue Silver Grass to bow.
• The Blue Silver King protested that Spirit Beasts were being hunted, but Tang Xuan retorted that if it did not die, he would have to die instead.
• Tang Xuan dismissed claims that Spirit Beasts faced extinction and explained his belief that Spirit Beasts and Spirit Masters followed a repeating cycle of balance.

Tang Xuan pressured the Blue Silver King into sacrificing itself to Ning Rongrong, promising to protect its people while threatening the Blue Silver Forest if the absorption went wrong. Ning Rongrong safely obtained its Spirit Ring, and Tang Xuan gave the surviving seed to Dugu Bo to cultivate at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

• Tang Xuan offered the Blue Silver King death or sacrifice, and Chen Xin subdued it with his Level 98 pressure.
• The Blue Silver King agreed to sacrifice itself to Ning Rongrong if Tang Xuan promised to protect its people, and Tang Xuan warned it not to let Ning Rongrong suffer.
• The Blue Silver King performed the sacrifice as Ning Fengzhi recorded the process and Chen Xin, Dugu Bo, and Tang Xuan watched.
• Ning Rongrong received the Blue Silver King's black, red-tinged Spirit Ring, while a tiny seed remained of its body.
• Tang Xuan gave the seed to Dugu Bo to plant at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and claimed he learned the Blue Silver Forest's location from Shi Nian's diary.

Tang Xuan absorbed the Spirit Concentrated Wisdom Skull, broke through to level 60, and demonstrated its powerful Soul Imprisonment skill. Ning Rongrong completed her Blue Silver King Spirit Ring absorption and revealed a weapon-type Soul Bone that took the form of the Blue Silver Overlord Spear.

• Tang Xuan absorbed the Spirit Concentrated Wisdom Skull over two days and broke through to level 60, gaining Mental Power beyond the Soul Douluo level.
• Tang Xuan used Soul Imprisonment on Dugu Bo, sealing part of his soul power and disrupting his connection to his senses and body.
• Ning Rongrong emerged from absorbing the eighty-five-thousand-year Blue Silver King with level 64 Soul Power and the support skill Nine Treasures Have Name: Sixth: Increase.
• Ning Rongrong summoned the Blue Silver Overlord Spear and explained that it was a Weapon Type Soul Bone rather than an offensive Soul Bone Skill.
