• Fourth Miss Geng arrived with Geng Can and immediately demanded to know where the Thousand Mountain Token was.

• Fourth Miss noticed Qin Shaofeng had advanced to the Lesser Origin Core Realm, and Geng Can and Fourth Miss reacted with alarm.
• Fourth Miss explained that Preparatory Camp disciples had to pass an examination after advancing, with one month to meet the requirement of ten times an ordinary person’s spiritual power.
• Qin Shaofeng realized the requirement might be a serious problem for his Third Grade Body of Thunder.

Qin Shaofeng tested his spiritual power and discovered that his Cloud Cores raised his total to six thousand points, enough to meet the Preparatory Camp’s requirement despite his weak spiritual roots. Geng Can recognized how exceptional Qin Shaofeng was and anticipated that he would make a major impact in the Preparatory Camp.

• Fourth Miss took Qin Shaofeng to a Spirit Testing Pillar after worrying that his spiritual power might be too low for the Preparatory Camp.
• Qin Shaofeng’s own spiritual power lit three marks, and Fourth Miss mistakenly thought he had just reached the first level of the Lesser Origin Core Realm.

• Geng Can expected Qin Shaofeng to make a name for himself in the Preparatory Camp and possibly break its long-standing records.

Qin Shaofeng left the mountain peak and entered the Thousand Mountain Sect Preparatory Camp, where he registered and learned how the camp, its rankings, and Battle Record Points worked. He discovered that he ranked 901st and began considering the intense competition ahead.

• After receiving notice that he had to take a spiritual power test within three days, Qin Shaofeng decided to leave and entrusted Geng Can with two Bronze Tier Thousand Mountain Tokens for Du Meng and Tang Qijian.

• Qin Shaofeng learned that Thousand Mountain Token ranks depended on spiritual power and Battle Record Points, which disciples gained or lost through competitions.

Qin Shaofeng learned how Battle Record Points and cross-level challenges could threaten his place in the Preparatory Camp, then discovered his low spiritual power would soon fall below the camp’s requirements. Qiuqiu proposed strengthening his body to advance the 108 Forms of Yoga and raise his spiritual root, but the medicinal herbs required made the plan costly.

• Qin Shaofeng learned that upcoming tournaments could strip him of Battle Record Points and that losing a cross-level challenge could get him expelled.
• Qin Shaofeng realized his Spiritual Power Value would not meet the Preparatory Camp’s requirements as he advanced through the Lesser Origin Core Realm.
• Qin Shaofeng considered improving his Pill Scripture or Body of Thunder spiritual root, but Qiuqiu said the Pill Scripture could not reach Saint-grade before the Three Yuan Realm.
• Qiuqiu suggested Qin Shaofeng strengthen his body and cultivate the 108 Forms of Yoga in reverse, claiming he could guide him through at least thirty-six forms.
• Qin Shaofeng saw the long list of medicinal herbs Qiuqiu prescribed and recognized that the Yoga method would be costly, though more achievable than upgrading his Pill Scripture.

Qin Shaofeng decided to hunt Demonic Beasts to earn Spirit Stones and raise his realm, but the Third Prince Huoxinghai tried to recruit him into his faction. Qin Shaofeng refused and walked away, leaving the two as enemies and drawing the Third Prince’s secret plan to control or destroy him.

• Qin Shaofeng chose to postpone improving his spiritual roots and planned to hunt Demonic Beasts for Spirit Stones and Experience Points.

• Huoxinghai resolved to use a Slave Control Pill on Qin Shaofeng or destroy him, while Qin Shaofeng recognized that they had become enemies.

Qin Shaofeng fled a swarm of Macaque Beasts after seeking their Cloud Spirit Grass, then hid and realized he needed a better plan to take their lair. Checking his rewards, he discovered that leveling had become much harder in the Lesser Origin Core Realm, leaving him to devise a formation-based attack while still short of allies.

• Qin Shaofeng deliberately attacked the Macaque Beasts to reach the Cloud Spirit Grass in their lair, but their growing swarm forced him to flee.
• Qiuqiu mocked Qin Shaofeng from the Origin World Space, and Qin Shaofeng used Lingbo Weibu’s phantom images to evade the Macaque Beasts and hide in a tree hollow.
• Qin Shaofeng realized that acting alone in the Giant Peak Secret Realm was dangerous because Mengzi and Old Tang had not arrived.
• Qin Shaofeng decided to use formations to defeat the Macaque Beasts rather than abandon the Cloud Spirit Grass.
• Qin Shaofeng checked the system prompts and learned that experience bonuses now added together, so he needed nearly three hundred Macaque Beasts to reach the next level.

Qin Shaofeng set a Maze Array to draw most of the Macaque Beasts away so he could harvest Cloud Spirit Grass, but the Macaque Beasts' enormous Monkey King appeared and forced him to flee. Qiuqiu blamed Qin Shaofeng for overlooking the danger, leaving him to face the consequences of his carelessness.

• Qin Shaofeng decided he could not afford a Tenfold Experience Boost Card because the system shop required him to reach Level 71.
• Qin Shaofeng set a Maze Array in a ravine and lured most of the Macaque Beasts into it, though Qiuqiu warned the array would hold them for no more than three minutes.
• Qin Shaofeng flew to the Cloud Spirit Grass patch, killed the Macaque Beasts guarding it, and harvested nearly two hundred stalks.
• A gigantic Macaque Beast charged from the lair, and Qiuqiu identified it as the likely Monkey King, at least at the Lesser Origin Core Fifth Layer.
• Qin Shaofeng fled from the Monkey King, then accused Qiuqiu of setting him up; Qiuqiu retorted that Qin Shaofeng had ignored the danger himself.

• Qin Shaofeng used a thunder clone to lure the Mutated Macaque King away, concealed his aura, and escaped into the forest.
• Qin Shaofeng counted 237 stalks of Cloud Spirit Grass, worth at least two hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones.

• Lu Renbing met Qin Shaofeng's slash with his broadsword but was sent flying, badly wounded, as his five accomplices watched in shock.

• Qin Shaofeng recognized Lu Renyi's name and wondered whether their eldest brother was called Lu Renjia.
• Lu Renyi attacked Qin Shaofeng, then spotted dreamlike eyes on Qin Shaofeng's shoulder as he closed in.

Qin Shaofeng defeated Lu Renyi and Lu Renbing with Little Fox Baixue’s Dark Charm and his Tsukuyomi, then passed the Preparatory Camp’s Spiritual Power Value test. When disciples crowded around his Cultivation Room to challenge him for his Bronze Tier Thousand Mountain Token, the system forced him to accept a mission to defeat over one hundred opponents and become the Thousand Mountain Sect’s number one genius.

• News spread that Qin Shaofeng had reached the Lesser Origin Core Fifth Level in ten days and would accept challenges from disciples below the Lesser Origin Core Sixth Level.

Qin Shaofeng defeated Chen Xinlin by blasting him off the arena with lightning balls, despite failing to break his spiritual armor. A new challenger, Jiang Hai, stepped up, but Qin Shaofeng invoked the rules to take a one-hour rest, leaving Jiang Hai and the onlookers convinced he was stalling out of fear.

• Qin Shaofeng took out a reclining chair and claimed his permitted one-hour rest, while Jiang Hai and the crowd assumed he was afraid.

• Jiang Hai waited impatiently while Qin Shaofeng rested, unaware that Xie Zijun was secretly watching and noting Qin Shaofeng’s growing strength.

Qin Shaofeng continued winning challenge matches while concealing his true strength, until He Changjue, a Ninth-grade Fire Spiritual Root genius, challenged him on Chen Xinlin’s behalf. Their battle escalated into a clash of Spiritual Power Manifestation, and Qin Shaofeng erased He Changjue’s Fire Spirit Sword with Qi Breaking Style, leaving the watching Xie Zijun stunned.

Qin Shaofeng defeated He Changjue through the Little Fox’s intervention, then challenged all ten people scheduled to fight him at once. He hoped to beat them quickly so no one below the Lesser Origin Core Sixth Level would challenge him and he could spend two days strengthening his body before the tournament.

• Qin Shaofeng shouted, "Fall for me!" as Little Fox used its bewitching power, causing all ten opponents to lose their balance and faint on the arena.
