• The host introduced Blue Sunshine Academy’s teachers and seven Gem Spirit Master competitors, then welcomed the Martial Soul Hall Second Team to loud cheers.

As the match against Canghui Academy began, Yu Xiaogang wrongly speculated that the girls had advanced through sinister methods that drained their life force, while Canghui formed a defensive formation.

• Salas watched the three girls reveal their Ten Thousand Year fourth spirit rings, while Tang Hao remained focused on Ye Lan and wondered why the other Martial Soul Hall Second Team members did not join the fight.

Ning Fengzhi warned that Shrek had no chance of defeating the team with its current strength, and Yu Xiaogang’s request prompted a guarded response from Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo.

• Ning Fengzhi placed another Hidden Weapons order worth one million Gold Soul Coins, and Yu Xiaogang and Tang San left satisfied.

Tang San entered the Three-Orifice Defense Heart and discovered that his Blue Silver Grass could let him sense and control nearby Blue Silver Grass, leaving him with a powerful new ability.

• Ning Fengzhi explained that the girls’ strength might come from treasures in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and that their Spirit Rings demonstrated Super Limit Spirit Ring Absorption.
• Ning Fengzhi sent Ning Rongrong back to Heaven Dou Royal Academy under guard and decided the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect should avoid provoking Spirit Hall until its own strength grew.
• Tang San and Ning Rongrong stayed at the academy during two tournament rounds to cultivate the Distraction Control Secret Technique, and Tang San struggled with his initial training method.

• Qin Ming revealed that the Shrek Seven Devils’ fourth-round opponents were Elephant Armor Academy, founded by the renowned defense-focused Elephant Armor Sect.

He launched his Cosmic Sky Style against the opponents’ heads, while Huyan Li ordered his team into a tight defensive formation to meet the attack.

• The Elephant Armor Academy Team advanced behind enhanced defenses, forcing Tang San and his teammates to retreat as he tested them with Blue Silver Bind.
• Tang San realized the opponents could break his restraints and planned to exploit their ground-based formation, then called Dai Mubai and the others forward and used Oscar’s Rapid Flight Mushroom Sausage to take the team airborne.

• Tang San’s aerial combination attack, which he called Cosmic Sky Style, prompted Huyan Li to gather his six teammates into a back-to-back defensive formation and swat at the descending attackers.

Tang San coordinated the Shrek Seven Devils’ airborne assault and used layered blue silver grass skills to isolate Huyan Li’s teammates while the others attacked the Elephant Armor Academy captain. Huyan Li’s Head Spirit Bone withstood the combined strike from Yu Tianheng and Dai Mubai, foiling Tang San’s plan to take him down quickly.

• The Elephant Armor Academy Team formed a defensive wall and counterattacked, but Tang San pulled Dai Mubai and the others out of danger and restrained their opponents with Blue Silver Bind.
• Tang San used Oscar’s sausages to restore his strength, then announced that the Shrek Seven Devils had twenty seconds to take down Huyan Li.

• Huyan Li’s earthy yellow Head Spirit Bone appeared and blocked Yu Tianheng and Dai Mubai’s combined attack, allowing him to break free of Tang San’s blue silver grass.

Huyan Li revealed his Head Spirit Bone to survive the Shrek Seven Devils’ coordinated assault, allowing the Elephant Armor Academy Team to break free and overturn Tang San’s plan. With their original backup strategies unavailable, the teams prepared for a direct clash, while Oscar was left nearly out of soul power and at risk of being targeted.

• Huyan Li used his Head Spirit Bone to withstand the Shrek Seven Devils’ attacks, and Ning Fengzhi warned Huyan Zhen that others might covet it.
• Huyan Li escaped Xiao Wu’s grasp, freed his six teammates from Tang San’s Blue Silver Grass, and caused Tang San to suffer backlash.
• Yu Tianheng and Dai Mubai asked Tang San for a new plan, and Tang San told the team to prepare for a head-on fight.
