Fu Shiyan sent Wu Yuan to deliver a message to the Zhu Family and continued guiding Tang San and the others while waiting for Tang San to reach rank thirty. In Suotuo City, Ma Hongjun reached rank ten, feared the consequences of gaining a Spirit Ring, and seized on news of Monster Academy as a possible lead from his dream.

• Fu Shiyan told Wu Yuan to return to the Star Luo Empire and arrange a meeting with the head of the Zhu Family in Xingyao City half a month later.

• Ma Hongjun heard that Wang Laoda had entered Monster Academy and rushed to ask his roommates where it was, but one challenged him by comparing their ranks.

Ma Hongjun learned that Shrek Academy might lie east of Suotuo City and set out to find it and Flender. At the academy, Yu Xiaogang pushed Mo Xuan through exhausting training while Mo Xuan trusted his guidance, as Fu Shiyan watched from Heaven Dou City and believed events were following his plan.

After a peaceful week in the courtyard, Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, visited Fu Shiyan to investigate Wu Yuan’s connection to the Tianxing King Mansion and learn more about Fu Shiyan. The chapter ended with Fu Shiyan asking what had brought the prince to his courtyard so early.

• Fu Shiyan and the others spent seven days cultivating, training, and studying their abilities in the courtyard.
• Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, arrived alone at Fu Shiyan’s courtyard on the eighth morning and seated herself at his tea table.

• Qian Renxue suspected Fu Shiyan might be connected to a surviving descendant of Tianxing King and wanted to observe and recruit him herself.
• Fu Shiyan addressed Qian Renxue as the eldest prince and asked what important matter had brought her to visit so early.

Fu Shiyan rejected Xue Qinghe’s invitation to join Heaven Dou Royal Academy, while Qian Renxue mistook his Star Luo ancestry for evidence that he was the Tianxing King’s surviving son. She ordered Snake Lance Douluo She Long to investigate the king’s death and whether he had any descendants.

• Fu Shiyan refused Xue Qinghe’s invitation to teach at Heaven Dou Royal Academy or participate in the Soul Master Tournament.

• She Long accepted the assignment and vanished as Qian Renxue’s carriage headed toward the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

Fu Shiyan began the morning lessons after Xue Qinghe left, but Dai Tianyu’s inability to learn basic reading and writing threatened Fu Shiyan’s plans for him. The chapter left Dai Tianyu insisting that strength mattered more than scholarship.

• After Xue Qinghe and his guards departed, Dai Tianyu, Oscar, and Xiao Wu came out while Tang San continued his early cultivation.
• Fu Shiyan gathered the four students for a morning lesson, and Tang San and Oscar paid close attention while Xiao Wu soon grew bored.

• Yue Guan remembered Ghost Douluo’s reassurance that they could make a home together anywhere.
• Yue Guan bowed to Fu Shiyan and said he was willing to hear his counsel.

Fu Shiyan revealed that he was an eighteen-year-old Soul Saint from an ancient hidden family and asked Yue Guan to watch Bibi Dong for signs of the Rakshasa inheritance.

Fu Shiyan detoured to an inn near the Star Dou Great Forest after spotting Ma Hongjun on his system map, while Ma Hongjun resisted Flender’s efforts to recruit him into Shrek Academy. The chapter ended with Ma Hongjun insisting that he had to reach Heaven Dou City first.

• Fu Shiyan gave Yue Guan a Seed of Vegetation for emergency contact and hinted at an extraordinary opportunity within the fabricated Beichen Fu Clan.
• Fu Shiyan left Heaven Dou City with Dai Tianyu and Fu Ze, leaving Fu Zhi to watch over Tang San, Oscar, and Xiao Wu.

• Ma Hongjun revealed his blazing Martial Soul to Flender, whose Soul Power calmed the boy when his Evil Fire began to flare.
• Flender urged Ma Hongjun to join Shrek Academy before going to Heaven Dou City, but Ma Hongjun refused and insisted he had to go there first.

Flender persuaded Ma Hongjun to let Yu Xiaogang examine his Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul before taking him to Heaven Dou City. Flender brought Ma Hongjun to Yu Xiaogang’s residence, interrupting his training plans for Mo Xuan and catching his interest with news of a rare Martial Soul problem.

• Flender questioned Ma Hongjun about why he wanted to go to Heaven Dou City, and Ma Hongjun insisted someone there could solve his Evil Fire problem without explaining how he knew.
• Flender realized Ma Hongjun had reached the threshold for his first Spirit Ring and offered to let Yu Xiaogang examine his Martial Soul before taking him to Heaven Dou City if Yu Xiaogang could not help.
• Ma Hongjun reluctantly agreed to meet the Grandmaster, and Flender led him back to Shrek Academy.
• Flender called excitedly for Yu Xiaogang and announced that he had brought a rare mutated beast Martial Soul with a problem to examine.
• Yu Xiaogang’s focused work on Mo Xuan’s training plan was interrupted, but Flender’s news about Ma Hongjun’s Martial Soul caught his interest.

Yu Xiaogang examined Ma Hongjun’s Evil Fire and, after finding no direct precedent, devised a theoretical plan to suppress it with a mental- and ice-attribute Spirit Ring. Flender agreed to take Ma Hongjun to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt a suitable Three-Eyed Azure Feather Sparrow.

• Flender brought Ma Hongjun to Yu Xiaogang and explained that the boy’s rank-nine Innate Soul Power came with a mutated Phoenix Martial Soul and dangerous Evil Fire.
• Yu Xiaogang inspected Ma Hongjun’s purple-red flames, recognized their unusual effects, and asked him to stay at the academy while he researched a solution.
• Yu Xiaogang spent two days studying his books and concluded that strengthening Ma Hongjun’s mental power and suppressing the fire with ice might control the Evil Fire.
• Yu Xiaogang proposed a roughly four-hundred-year-old Three-Eyed Azure Feather Sparrow as Ma Hongjun’s first Spirit Ring, despite the risk of conflict with his Martial Soul.
• Flender accepted Yu Xiaogang’s plan and prepared to take Ma Hongjun to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt the Soul Beast.

Fu Shiyan and his companions reached the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest and encountered Flender trying to persuade Ma Hongjun to absorb an ice-and-mental-attributed Spirit Ring. Ma Hongjun recognized Fu Shiyan as the teacher from his dreams and rushed to cling to him, leaving Flender and the others startled.

• Flender tried to convince Ma Hongjun that Yu Xiaogang's Spirit Ring plan would suppress his Evil Fire, but Ma Hongjun remained uneasy and wanted to find Teacher Fu in Heaven Dou City.
• Fu Shiyan followed the System Panel's guidance through the forest with Fu Ze and Dai Tianyu, heading toward Ma Hongjun's location.
• Flender and Ma Hongjun stood beside the corpse of a roughly four-hundred-year Three-Eyed Azure Feather Sparrow when Fu Shiyan's group approached.
• Flender identified himself and cautiously asked why the newcomers had entered the area, sensing that Fu Ze was a formidable expert.
• Ma Hongjun recognized Fu Shiyan from his dreams, rushed out from behind Flender, and clung to Fu Shiyan's leg while calling him Teacher Fu.

Fu Shiyan learned that Ma Hongjun had dreamed of him curing his Evil Fire and warned Flender that the planned ice-attributed Spirit Ring would dangerously damage Ma Hongjun’s unstable Martial Soul. The chapter ended with Ma Hongjun’s first Spirit Ring still undecided and Flender confronted with the possibility that Yu Xiaogang’s theory could kill his student.

• Flender pulled Ma Hongjun away from Fu Shiyan and apologized, while Fu Shiyan asked how the boy knew his surname.
• Ma Hongjun privately told Fu Shiyan that he had dreamed Fu Shiyan would become his teacher, cure his Evil Fire, and help his Martial Soul evolve into a Fire Phoenix.
• Ma Hongjun activated Phoenix Possession, and Dai Tianyu mocked his Evil Fire Phoenix as a fat hen before Ma Hongjun protested.
• Flender explained that Yu Xiaogang had recommended the Three-Eyed Azure Feather Sparrow’s ice and mental attributes to suppress Ma Hongjun’s Evil Fire.
• Fu Shiyan rejected the theory and explained that Ma Hongjun’s Evil Fire came from a failed Martial Soul evolution and a flawed origin, not excessive fire.
• Fu Shiyan warned that absorbing the ice-attribute Spirit Ring could trigger a catastrophic clash, destroy Ma Hongjun’s Martial Soul origin, and potentially kill him.

Fu Shiyan confirmed that Yu Xiaogang’s proposed treatment could destroy Ma Hongjun’s Martial Soul potential and endanger his life, then agreed to take Ma Hongjun with him. Ma Hongjun left Flender’s care with Fu Shiyan’s group as Flender accepted the decision and departed.

• Fu Shiyan explained that Yu Xiaogang’s proposed solution could sever Ma Hongjun’s Martial Soul potential and put his life at risk.

• Fu Shiyan asked Ma Hongjun about his age, Martial Soul, and Innate Soul Power, then told him to come with them.
• Ma Hongjun thanked Flender before Flender accepted his departure and walked alone toward the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Fu Shiyan met with Zhu Moyuan in Xingyao City and returned to Heaven Dou City after reaching an undisclosed agreement. Back at the courtyard, he refined pills that transformed Ma Hongjun’s Evil Fire Phoenix and helped Oscar reach Soul Power level twenty, then began selecting suitable Soul Beasts for them and Xiao Wu.

• Wu Yuan met Fu Shiyan’s group at Xingyao City and led them to Zhu Moyuan, the head of the Zhu Family.
• Fu Shiyan and Zhu Moyuan held a private discussion for three hours and agreed that subsequent matters would proceed as planned.
• A week after the group returned to Heaven Dou City, Dai Tianyu’s name was entered into the secret register of the Dai imperial bloodline.
• Fu Shiyan refined three Nirvana True Fire Pills and gave one to Ma Hongjun, purifying his Evil Fire and transforming his Martial Soul into a true Fire Phoenix.

• Fu Shiyan selected suitable Soul Beasts for Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Xiao Wu based on their Martial Souls and current conditions.

Fu Ze took Oscar and Ma Hongjun to Sunset Forest to obtain their Spirit Rings. Ma Hongjun absorbed a Red Kite Fire Bird’s ring and gained a powerful enhancement skill, while the group found a suitable Lingyu Rhinoceros for Oscar.

• Fu Shiyan sent Fu Ze to Sunset Forest with Oscar and Ma Hongjun, warning them to absorb their Spirit Rings carefully.
• Fu Ze suppressed a Red Kite Fire Bird, and Ma Hongjun killed it himself to obtain its Spirit Ring.
• Ma Hongjun absorbed the ring, reached level eighteen, and gained Phoenix Heaven Profound Transformation, which doubled his attack and defense for a short time.
• Fu Ze and the others found a 923-year-old Lingyu Rhinoceros, and Fu Ze pointed out its weak spots to Oscar.

Oscar absorbed his second Spirit Ring and gained a thirty-percent all-attribute boost, while Dai Tianyu advanced to Soul Elder and gained a stealth skill from his third ring. After six months of training, Tang San reached level thirty, and Fu Shiyan prepared him to seek a Seven-Heart Spirit Vine that might trigger a second awakening of his Blue Silver Grass.

• Oscar killed the Lingyu Rhinoceros, absorbed its more-than-nine-hundred-year Spirit Ring, reached level twenty-five, and gained All-Attribute Boost by Thirty Percent.
• Dai Tianyu advanced to level thirty after a burst of Soul Power and later absorbed a Shadow Ghost Tiger's Spirit Ring, gaining Dark Demon Shadow Quicksand.
• Over the next half year, Tang San trained until he broke through level thirty, becoming ready to obtain his third Spirit Ring.
• Fu Shiyan told Tang San that he had chosen the Seven-Heart Spirit Vine in Star Dou Great Forest, whose vitality might guide Blue Silver Grass into a Second Awakening.
• Fu Shiyan explained to the shocked children that Martial Soul Second Awakening existed but was exceptionally rare.

Tang San learned that his soul hunt might awaken the dormant power in his Blue Silver Grass, while Bibi Dong continued to suffer under the Rakshasa God’s influence and cling to memories of Yu Xiaogang. Fu Shiyan then departed for the Star Dou Great Forest with Fu Ze and Tang San, having reached rank seventy-eight and accumulated more than four million Faith Power.

• Fu Shiyan told Tang San that the soul hunt was intended to awaken the hidden power in his Blue Silver Grass, and Tang San connected this possibility to the Blue Silver Emperor awakening he had seen in his simulations.
• Bibi Dong woke from another nightmare, suppressed her growing darkness, and went to the library where memories of Yu Xiaogang brought her brief, troubled comfort.
