• Liu Yanyang and the others returned to the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear cave, used Dream to put the bears to sleep, and Yang Wudi killed the thirty-thousand-year bear for his eighth Soul Ring.
• Yang Wudi absorbed the Soul Ring, reached level 82, and gained the eighth soul skill Universe Throw.
• Shui Xinrou said her contact had found an eighty-thousand-year Extreme Frost Bird in a valley near the Extreme North Land, so the group traveled there.

• Shui Xinrou absorbed the Extreme Frost Bird's Soul Ring, reached level 82, and gained the eighth soul skill Extreme Frost Beam.
• Liu Yanyang proposed discussing the group's future development.

Liu Yanyang persuaded Yang Wudi, Dugu Bo, and Shui Xinrou to join his planned faction, then revealed the truth he had learned about Tang Hao and the Clear Sky Sect. Yang Wudi suspected that Tang Hao had sacrificed his family’s allies for a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, leaving him consumed by doubt and anger.

• Liu Yanyang proposed establishing a faction, and Yang Wudi, Dugu Bo, and Shui Xinrou agreed to join with their forces.
• Liu Yanyang asked Dugu Bo to recruit the Nine Petal Begonia Family by offering to resolve their curse, and asked Shui Xinrou to approach Godwind Academy and Blazing Fire Academy with an offer of Immortal Herbs.
• Liu Yanyang told Yang Wudi that Tang San had Twin Martial Souls: the Clear Sky Hammer and an unawakened Blue Silver Emperor, inherited from his mother, a Hundred Thousand Year Transformed Soul Beast.
• Yang Wudi realized the Clear Sky Sect had abandoned the Single Attribute Four Great Clans to protect its reputation after Tang Hao’s relationship with the Soul Beast came to light.
• Liu Yanyang explained that Qian Xunji had found the transformed Soul Beast after she gave birth and that Tang Hao had obtained his Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring through her sacrifice.
• Yang Wudi suspected Tang Hao had schemed to obtain the Soul Ring even at the cost of endangering his own sect, and sank into confusion.

Liu Yanyang warned Yang Wudi that Tai Tan might still be loyal to Tang Hao and Tang San, then arranged to delay recruiting him while seeking support from the other clans. After three fruitless months searching the Star Dou Great Forest for soul bones, Liu Yanyang began plotting to obtain treasures through Xiao Wu in the future.

• Liu Yanyang questioned Yang Wudi about Tai Tan's loyalty and revealed that Tang Yuehua, the master of Moonlight Pavilion, was Tang Hao's sister.
• Yang Wudi learned that the Strength Clan had suffered fewer casualties and escaped to Heaven Dou City quickly, then chose to keep trusting Tai Tan while agreeing not to tell him about the faction yet.
• Liu Yanyang proposed offering the Speed and Defense Clans one Low-grade Immortal Herb each and waiting to see what Tai Tan would do when Tang San came to Heaven Dou City.
• Liu Yanyang left Dugu Bo and Yang Wudi to cultivate in the Mixed Ring of the Star Dou Great Forest and search for treasures.
• After three months of searching countless Soul Beast caves without finding a soul bone, Liu Yanyang decided he might later seek treasures through Xiao Wu.

After leaving the Star Dou Great Forest to restock supplies, Liu Yanyang met Flender, Dai Mubai, and Ma Hongjun at a restaurant. He let Flender believe he was a thirteen-year-old level 31 genius and agreed to wait while they hunted for a Soul Ring, then slipped back into the forest elsewhere.

• Liu Yanyang reached level 44 after three months of cultivation and headed to Soul Hunting Town to replenish his supplies.

• Liu Yanyang questioned Dai Mubai’s claim about a former Shrek student becoming a Spirit Hall elder, and Flender offered an explanation.
• Liu Yanyang agreed to wait for the group, but after Flender, Dai Mubai, and Ma Hongjun left for the forest, he entered it from another direction.

After two years in the Star Dou Great Forest, Liu Yanyang reached Level 50 and collected a thirty-thousand-year Earth Tyrant Dragon Torso Bone and two rare radiances. He then stole the Blue Silver Emperor and its right leg bone from the cave near Holy Soul Village, leaving a false clue behind before flying toward Suotuo City.

• Liu Yanyang broke through to Level 50 and took a thirty-thousand-year Earth Tyrant Dragon Torso Bone from the Earth Tyrant Dragon's lair.
• Liu Yanyang returned to his cave with the torso bone and the forty-thousand-year Star Moon Spirit Radiance and Shining Sun Radiance he had found.
• After learning that Little Bie San and Old Rabbit had gone to Suotuo City, Liu Yanyang used a map to locate the waterfall cave near Holy Soul Village.
• Liu Yanyang forced open the cave entrance, pulled the Blue Silver Emperor from its soil, and stored it in a flowerpot inside his Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch.
• Liu Yanyang retrieved the crystal-clear blue-gold right leg bone from a hidden lead box and carved a misleading message on the cave wall.
• Liu Yanyang left the cave and flew toward Suotuo City.

Liu Yanyang returned to Suotuo City, met Flender, and was persuaded to report to Shrek Academy despite having no intention of enrolling. He arrived at the academy in disguise and interfered with Dai Mubai just as Tang San and Xiao Wu ate Oscar’s sausages, leaving Dai Mubai asking where they came from.

• Liu Yanyang visited Flender’s shop, claimed he had been imprisoned for two years, and agreed to report to Shrek Academy in two days.
• Flender gave Liu Yanyang a dark yellow crystal, then celebrated the return of the genius he hoped to recruit.
• Liu Yanyang saw Dai Mubai leave an inn with twin women and noticed Zhu Zhuqing’s disappointment, reflecting on the effects of Martial Soul Fusion Skills.
• Two days later, Liu Yanyang went to Shrek Academy in disguise and watched Dai Mubai demand that applicants beat him to get their registration fees back.
• Liu Yanyang followed Tang San, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing into the academy, then knocked Dai Mubai down with a pebble as Tang San and Xiao Wu ate Oscar’s sausages.
• Dai Mubai got up, noticed the sausages in Tang San’s and Xiao Wu’s mouths, and asked where they had gotten them.

Tang San and his companions reached Shrek Academy’s final assessment, where Zhao Wuji tested them in combat. After Xiao Wu was badly injured, Tang San’s hidden weapons failed to hurt Zhao Wuji, but his Clear Sky Hammer strike left Zhao Wuji battered too, and Zhao Wuji passed the group.

• Dai Mubai led Tang San, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Zhuqing into the academy after Oscar’s sausage made Xiao Wu and Tang San vomit.
• The four passed directly to the fourth assessment because their Soul Power exceeded level twenty-five, while Liu Yanyang wondered why Ning Rongrong seemed unsurprised by Dai Mubai’s claims about the academy.
• Zhao Wuji began the assessment, and his first Soul Skill blasted Xiao Wu and Zhuqing away, leaving Xiao Wu unconscious and bleeding after her Charm briefly stunned him.
• Tang San challenged Zhao Wuji again and fired volleys of hidden weapons at his vital points, but Zhao Wuji’s defense stopped them.
• Tang San summoned his Clear Sky Hammer and struck Zhao Wuji’s cheek before Zhao Wuji slapped him away; Zhao Wuji declared the group passed and left, while Liu Yanyang laughed at Tang San’s injuries.

• Liu Yanyang watched Ning Rongrong taunt Dai Mubai at Shrek Academy, then headed to the Star Dou Great Forest to prepare for the group’s arrival.

• Tang San took an Oscar’s Flying Mushroom Sausage and pursued the Titan Giant Ape while Liu Yanyang declared that the show had begun.

Liu Yanyang manipulated Tang San into trading a Human Meridian Diagram for his promise to save Xiao Wu, then secretly waited for Tang San to absorb a Man Faced Demon Spider’s Soul Ring. He tore the newly formed Eight Spider Lances from Tang San and left him barely alive, intending to use him in his plans involving Xiao Wu.

• Liu Yanyang lured the Raging Barbarian Bull toward the Shrek group and followed Tang San, defeating a Man Faced Demon Spider along the way.
• Disguised as A Fei, Liu Yanyang rescued Tang San from an injured Man Faced Demon Spider and claimed he could save Xiao Wu in exchange for a valuable item.
• Tang San gave Liu Yanyang a Human Meridian Diagram after swearing it was genuine, then killed the spider and absorbed its Soul Ring.
• Liu Yanyang sent another Man Faced Demon Spider to attack Xiao Wu while he returned to watch Tang San complete his absorption and grow the Eight Spider Lances.
• Liu Yanyang tore the Eight Spider Lances from Tang San, treated his wounds with medicinal liquid, and left him barely alive.

• While Xiao Wu was away, Liu Yanyang took Tang San’s Godly Zhuge Crossbow and left the Twenty-Four Bridges Bright Moon Night in place.

Liu Yanyang gave Xiao Wu medicine that helped Tang San recover, then returned to Suotuo City and planned to gather allies while concealing his own strength behind the identity of A Fei. After Tang San reunited with Xiao Wu and returned to Shrek Academy, Flender began making announcements with Prison Little Anus present.

• Liu Yanyang gave Xiao Wu Healing Liquid for Tang San and left the Star Dou Great Forest; Xiao Wu told Zhao Wuji that a black-robed man had saved Tang San.
