History
Tournament and Imperial Recruitment
After the disastrous Shrek Inspectorate mission, the remaining Shrek contestants continue toward Star Luo City, traveling by carriage to accommodate injured team members. Wei Na also redirects her journey to the capital after learning of Huo Yuhao’s talent 99 101.
Huo Yuhao’s tournament performances attract the imperial family’s attention. Xu Jiawei authorizes Xu Jiujiu to offer whatever conditions are necessary to recruit him. At the Starlight Auction House, she gives him the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife and later provides a personal token through which he can contact her anywhere in the city 115 120 121.
The tournament exposes the limits of impartial competition under imperial authority. During the Star Luo–Sun Moon semifinal, four imperial Titled Douluo restrain Xiao Hongchen before he can strike Xu Jiujiu. Jing Hongchen protests the interference but avoids escalating the dispute on Star Luo territory; the referee nevertheless declares the Sun Moon academy victorious 252.
Shrek ultimately wins the championship after Huo Yuhao defeats the Sun Moon team with Susanoo. The palace distributes three ten-thousand-year Spirit Bones as championship rewards. Xu Jiujiu also offers him a Hereditary Viscount title, with promotion to Hereditary Count if he joins the empire, but he declines recruitment 289 293.
White Tiger Family Massacre
During a night beneath an unusual red moon, Huo Yuhao attacks the White Tiger Family’s city residence in his Tiger Mask disguise. He and Tang Ya kill its Great Elder with their Thousand-Hand Little Buddha fusion skill; the collapsing underground cavern alerts an imperial Guardian Douluo 128 137.
The White Tiger and Spirit Cat main families are nearly wiped out. Despite the capital’s substantial complement of imperial experts, Cheng Gang arrives only after prolonged fighting. Xu Jiawei convenes his ministers to discuss the Akatsuki attack, while the imperial family subsequently cultivates Dai Luoli’s gratitude and dependence 150 164.
Dai Hao later returns to Star Luo City without authorization, provoking Xu Jiawei’s anger. At the ruined Duke Mansion outside the city, he discovers the ancient Star Luo Imperial Seal hidden by his late wife, Zhu Qin 245 247 248.
Cheng Gang Incident and Abduction
Cheng Gang secretly enters the Star Emperor Hotel and subjects Huo Yuhao to a spiritual investigation. Huo Yuhao’s disappearance prompts Wang Yan and the Shrek team to confront the imperial family at the palace. Xu Jiujiu apologizes and promises compensation 164 165.
Upon Huo Yuhao’s return through Kamui, Xuanji Douluo politely escorts him to the palace. Xu Jiujiu subsequently delivers an auction invitation to the entire Shrek team, publicly presenting the compensation as a settlement of the dispute 166 168.
After the tournament, Zhongli Wu abducts Huo Yuhao during his departure. A Holy Spirit Cult stronghold outside Star Luo City holds him captive, prompting a rescue effort involving Xuan Zi, Zhang Lexuan, and five Star Luo Titled Douluo 293 295. Huo Yuhao eventually returns safely to the city with Zhang Lexuan 307.
Evil Eye Holy King and Palace Battle
The Star Crown Family secretly maintains the seal on the Evil Eye Holy King’s yin-aspect half. Each generation’s inheritors are expected to reinforce it after becoming Titled Douluo 337.
Huo Yuhao later infiltrates the palace with Akatsuki companions, bypassing its guards and Soul Tool defenses. Xu Jiujiu opens the outer seal, but extraction of the Demon Blade, Cursed-Eye Tiger Soul, causes the third seal to collapse. The released Holy King attempts to possess Huo Yuhao and instead falls into a prepared trap within his Sea of Consciousness 371 372.
The Holy King’s destruction lifts the curse on the Star Crown Martial Soul. Holy Spirit Cult attackers then strike at the palace, leading to Huo Yuhao’s confrontation with Long Xiaoyao. Their battle produces a phenomenon sensed by distant powers; Long Xiaoyao’s culminating attack contains enough energy to raze Star Luo City 375 378 379.
Three Emperors Conference
After securing the Star Crown Sect’s submission, Huo Yuhao removes its entire residence from Star Luo City to the Soul Society Plane. This does not constitute the surrender of the whole empire: Xu Jiujiu initially states that she can speak only for the sect 494 495.
Meanwhile, the city hosts the Three Emperors Conference, bringing together imperial rulers and major academy and sect leaders to form an anti-Akatsuki alliance 495.
Huo Yuhao interrupts the gathering and overwhelms its defenders with Great Susanoo. Twenty-five Wood Clones then summon Full-Body Susanoo and enclose the conference venue within a Six Violet Sun Formation. He declares the Fourth Soul Master Realm War while the assembled rulers and Soul Masters are trapped inside 498 499.
