• Aoyao wondered why Wang Dong'er was sharing his room, then introduced himself after deciding to stay and observe her.

• Dai Huabin used his White Tiger martial soul and soul skills to beat Huo Yuhao until Mu En stopped the fight.

Aoyao discovered that Ning Tian could read his diary and receive rewards, but his realization triggered a punishment that regressed her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. Ning Tian was left facing a lower cultivation limit, while Wang Dong'er resolved to hide her own connection more carefully.

• Ning Tian boosted Wu Feng with her three purple soul rings when Wang Dong'er’s two thousand-year rings put Wu Feng at a disadvantage.
• Aoyao noticed Ning Tian’s unusual soul rings, suspected she received rewards through his diary, and confirmed his suspicion by calling her an idiot in a diary entry.
• The diary system punished Ning Tian for hiding her Diary Copy and regressed her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda into a Six Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, capping her cultivation at level sixty-nine.
• Wu Feng comforted Ning Tian while Wang Dong'er realized Aoyao had uncovered Ning Tian’s secret and decided to be more careful about revealing her own.

Aoyao received powerful diary rewards and began absorbing a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring and a hundred-thousand-year Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear soul bone. Ning Tian, seeking a way to regain her martial soul and earn more rewards, decided to become Aoyao's girlfriend, leaving Wu Feng stunned.

• Aoyao received three soul power levels, a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, a hundred-thousand-year Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear soul bone, and the rank-nine Benevolent King Shield.

Aoyao recounted how Ma Xiaotao’s martial soul mutated and ended by questioning how Yan Shaozhe failed to stop her after she became an evil soul master.

• Zhang Lexuan reconsidered her faith in Shrek Academy and questioned whether Mu En had truly saved her by chance.
• Aoyao explained that the Sword of Judgment triggered Ma Xiaotao’s martial soul mutation during the Continental Soul Fighting Tournament, after which Mu En temporarily sealed her.

• Aoyao questioned how Yan Shaozhe, a Super Douluo, had failed to stop Ma Xiaotao when she was only a Soul Saint.

Ma Xiaotao learned how she might become an Evil Soul Master and realized her evil fire remained a serious danger, even without the Sword of Judgment or the Holy Spirit Cult. Aoyao speculated that his evolved Primordial Pearl martial soul might help suppress it, leaving Ma Xiaotao tempted to seek his help.

• Ma Xiaotao read that Yan Shaozhe would fail to stop the Holy Spirit Cult from capturing her, where she would be corrupted into its Phoenix Holy Maiden before Huo Yuhao eventually rescued her.

Ning Tian changed plans to avoid other Diary Copy holders, but Aoyao’s diary reminded her of Huo Yuhao’s grilled-fish stall, where Tang Ya was helping him. Tang Ya convinced herself she could grow closer to Aoyao without Bei Bei finding out, while Jiang Nannan spotted Aoyao and decided to test the diary’s claims.

• Ning Tian suggested that she, Wu Feng, and Aoyao eat out, but Aoyao’s diary entry drew their attention to Huo Yuhao’s crowded grilled-fish stall.

• Tang Ya hurried toward Aoyao, then justified getting closer to him by reminding herself that Bei Bei had concealed his childhood engagement to Zhang Lexuan.
• Jiang Nannan emerged from Shrek Academy, recognized Aoyao from the diary, and decided to use their encounter to test whether the diary was real.

Jiang Nannan visited Huo Yuhao’s grilled-fish stall, where Aoyao’s diary revealed a future bargain with Xu Sanshi that would leave her traumatized. Fearing for her ill mother but hoping the diary could offer another way to save her, Jiang Nannan recoiled from Xu Sanshi when he tried to approach her.

• Jiang Nannan asked Huo Yuhao to lower the price of his grilled fish, but he refused to bargain, so she apologized and prepared to leave.

• Xu Sanshi offered Jiang Nannan two grilled fish and invited her to watch his Soul Fighting match with Bei Bei, but she backed away from him, leaving him confused.

Jiang Nannan doubted she could ever forgive Xu Sanshi, while Zhang Lexuan grew curious about the mysterious Qiankun Asking Love Valley and tried to draw Aoyao into explaining it through the group chat. The conversation veered into arguments and an awkward question, leaving the chat silent.

• Jiang Nannan questioned the diary's claim that she would accept Xu Sanshi and forgive him after what he had done.
• Zhang Lexuan recalled the diary's earlier mentions of the Qiankun Asking Love Valley and wondered whether it was a place or an event connected to Huo Yuhao.

• Zhang Lexuan suggested the valley might be something a god had left behind to encourage Aoyao to explain it.
• The Three-Eyed Golden Lion asked what "went through the wrong door" meant, and the group chat fell silent.

Tang Ya explained the Mystic Water Pill’s benefits, and Huo Yuhao agreed to help Bei Bei with Spiritual Detection during his match against Xu Sanshi. Aoyao chose not to interfere, then received major diary rewards while Jiang Nannan and Yuema gained rewards of their own.
