Ch. 542A Return to the World of the Clear Sky Sect?
Shui Bing'er and Huo Wu recognized Beast Academy's masked competitors as figures from Ye Qiu's memories and suspected Tang Miao was Tang San, now allied with Clear Sky Sect disciples. The powerful observers grew wary that the sect was preparing to return, while Tang San regarded the tournament as a chance for the sect to regain its reputation.
- Huo Wu asked Shui Bing'er whether Beast Academy was connected to Ye Qiu, and Shui Bing'er explained that the connection was hostile.
- Shui Bing'er helped Huo Wu recognize Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Meng Yiran from Ye Qiu's memories.
- Shui Bing'er identified Tang Miao as Tang San, reasoning from his connections and unprecedented four-purple-ring configuration, and noted that two other Beast Academy members wielded Clear Sky Hammers.
- Ning Fengzhi and Qian Renxue watched Beast Academy closely, suspecting the Clear Sky Sect was preparing to reassert itself; Qian Renxue hesitated to act for fear of provoking a large-scale conflict.
- Tang San noticed Huo Wu watching him and considered the Four Elements Academy worthy opponents and stepping stones for the Clear Sky Sect.
- Huo Wu snorted at Tang San but refrained from provoking him, recognizing that her level-forty-six strength did not guarantee she could defeat him.
