Chapter Summaries

After becoming Sea God Pavilion Master, Huo Yuhao used Shrek Academy’s resources and his growing luck while several women pursued him and developed special connections with him.

• Huo Yuhao silently accepted the elders’ decision not to intervene for now.

• Murong Qianjun emerged victorious, and the Terror Claw Legion recovered the Great General’s corpse.

The Dou Ling Empire’s defenses collapsed as the Beast King Legions entered Lingdou City, and Shadow Douluo assassinated the Douling Emperor. The legions withdrew without leaving the empire, while the Crown Prince’s allies sought Shrek Academy’s help and Death God Messenger revealed a plan involving the emperor’s corpse.

• Death God Messenger praised Bern and promised to help him advance, then told Xue Chen that the Douling Emperor would act personally because of the poison on the dagger.

Huo Yuhao and five Shrek Academy members arrived in devastated Lingdou City under the pretense of offering condolences, while preparing to oppose the Sun Moon Empire if its Beast King Legions attacked again. After paying respects to the slain Douling Emperor, Huo Yuhao met the city's wary leaders and faction representatives, and the chapter left him amid the city's fragile, grief-stricken defenses.

• After the Douling Emperor's assassination and Lingdou City's fall, Shrek Academy sent Huo Yuhao with Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, Hua Yao, Wu Ming, and Xiao Xiao to investigate and potentially confront the Beast King Legions.
• Huo Yuhao's group entered the ruined city, where displaced residents relied on imperial porridge and faction leaders had sealed the city to prevent desertions and preserve its defenses.
• The Dou Ling Crown Prince Xue Bo and Prime Minister Tu Wenbin greeted the group, and Xue Bo asked whether Xuan Zi had come to help the empire.
• Huo Yuhao explained that Xuan Zi was absent and that his small group had come only to offer condolences, then respectfully paid tribute at the Douling Emperor's golden coffin.
• Huo Yuhao met faction representatives including Nanmen Yuzhi and Xie Jun, while the city's leaders showed little confidence in the young Sea God Pavilion Master.

Ning Yutang brought Huo Yuhao to secretly examine the Douling Emperor’s corpse, which had been afflicted with a powerful poison and was rapidly transforming into a zombie. Huo Yuhao accelerated the transformation and discovered that the corpse was gathering Fortune and Dragon Qi, leaving him eager to see what his fusion would produce.

• Ning Yutang and Xue Kuang led Huo Yuhao and Tu Wenbin to a concealed palace in the rear palace, where Tianyang Douluo and Saint Turtle Douluo were guarding the Douling Emperor’s real corpse.
• Tianyang Douluo explained that the corpse’s hair, nails, and teeth were growing, its eyes had changed, and its poison had turned a scratched eunuch into pus.
• Huo Yuhao examined the corpse without protective gloves and secretly accelerated its transformation by fusing two clusters of Fortune into it.
• Huo Yuhao noticed the corpse was gathering Fortune and Dragon Qi despite being dead, and realized he had fused something extraordinary.

Huo Yuhao discovered that an Evil Soul Master’s poison was transforming the Douling Emperor’s corpse and urged the imperial family to destroy it, but Crown Prince Xue Bo refused for political reasons. The corpse was sealed and frozen under heavy guard, while Shadow Douluo’s infiltration and Huo Yuhao’s hidden spoils left the danger unresolved.

• Huo Yuhao found that Evil Soul Master poison had fused with the Douling Emperor’s corpse, resisted purification, and could not be harmed by his Light Attribute Soul Power.
• Huo Yuhao advised Ning Yutang and the others to burn the corpse, but they referred the decision to Crown Prince Xue Bo, who rejected the proposal to protect his succession.
• Xue Bo’s faction hid the corpse, suppressed it with the Soul Power of several Titled Douluo, and asked Huo Yuhao to seal its coffin in Ultimate Ice.
• Huo Yuhao warned Ning Yutang that the unresolved problem would eventually erupt, while Xue Kuang stayed silent to avoid provoking him.
• Shadow Douluo placed items from Death God Messenger around the imperial palace, and Huo Yuhao sorted the spoils from the Beast King Legions’ attack, including souls and bloodline pills.

Huo Yuhao watched the Douling Emperor’s corpse absorb baleful filth and earthly baleful Qi as strange black clouds gathered over Lingdou City. A lightning strike shattered the corpse’s ice seal and triggered its transformation into the Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie.

• Murong Qianjun and Duanmu Wanma noticed black Qi above Lingdou City, while Bern warned that the city would fall when the weather turned cold.
• Xue Bo organized Lingdou City’s defenses while Huo Yuhao and the other faction representatives stayed in the imperial palace.
• Huo Yuhao realized the corpse in the rear palace was rapidly absorbing baleful filth and earthly baleful Qi and predicted it would transform that night.
• A violent storm struck the imperial palace, and lightning pierced the rear palace roof and hit the corpse’s ice-sealed coffin.
• The Douling Emperor’s corpse absorbed the lightning, burst from the coffin, and rose as the Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie.

Huo Yuhao’s fusion of the Douling Emperor produced the Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie, which escaped two Super Douluo and attacked the imperial family. After draining Xue Bo’s blood, it turned toward the other princes and princesses.

• The Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie emerged with immense potential, intelligence, and a thirst for the blood of its relatives.
• It ignored Tianyang Douluo and Saint Turtle Douluo, escaped Saint Turtle Douluo’s stomp by tunneling underground, and resisted Tianyang Douluo’s fire beam with Evil Thunder.

• It seized Xue Bo and drained his blood, transforming him into a zombie while the Queen and others watched helplessly.
• The zombie grinned at the gathered royal relatives, began to breathe, and pounced on another prince.

Tianyang Douluo and Saint Turtle Douluo struggled to contain the Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie after it killed Crown Prince Xue Bo, while Huo Yuhao was kept from reaching the palace by Bern and Shadow Douluo. The Beast King Legions broke through Lingdou City and began a massacre as the palace defenders faced a transformed zombie and a sudden ambush.

• The two Beast King Legions unleashed their full strength, breached Lingdou City's walls, and massacred its inhabitants as the Hao Emperor Banner guided the dead toward the afterlife.
• The Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie neared the end of its transformation while Tianyang Douluo and the others struggled to restrain it, and an attacker struck at Ning Yutang from behind.

Nanmen Yuzhi ambushed Ning Yutang’s group and trapped them in a Five-Colored Grand Array with the Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie. The zombie broke free, killed Tianyang Douluo, and left the remaining defenders facing a far stronger enemy.

• Nanmen Yuzhi revealed herself after her attack shattered Ning Yutang’s class-nine Soul Guidance Barrier, then began fighting the group with her Five-Colored Plume.
• Nanmen Yuzhi used Five-Colored Divine Light to hold off Mad Blade Douluo while a hidden spiritual attack wounded Tianyang Douluo and Saint Turtle Douluo, disrupting their suppression of the Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie.

• The Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie discarded Tianyang Douluo’s shriveled corpse and turned toward the remaining defenders, who were left in despair.

Tu Xijun and Nanmen Yuzhi’s trap led to the deaths of Ning Yutang and three Douluo, clearing the way for Ning Tian to take control of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile School. The Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie then headed for the rear palace as the chapter revealed that the Dou Ling Empire was about to fall under Huo Yuhao’s influence.

• Saint Turtle Douluo and Mad Blade Douluo joined Ning Yutang to fight the Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie, but a hidden spiritual attack killed Ning Yutang.
• The Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie killed Saint Turtle Douluo and Mad Blade Douluo after Tu Xijun’s spiritual attacks interrupted their attempts to fight back.

Huo Yuhao secured control of the Dou Ling royal family and planned to use the empire’s crisis to draw Shrek Academy into conflict. He left Tu Xijun and Nanmen Yuzhi to arrange Princess Xue Hui’s succession while turning his attention to the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Ling imperial mausoleum.

• Nanmen Yuzhi and Tu Xijun found Huo Yuhao at Phoenix Ceremony Palace as the Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie devoured the blood of Dou Ling royals.

• With Ning Tian's support, Princess Xuehui became Snow Wisdom Empress, moved the capital to Heaven Spirit City, and appointed the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile School as the nation's guardian sect.
• Snow Wisdom Empress reshuffled the empire's power structure, appointing Tu Xijun as Female Minister, Nanmen Yun'er as Great General, and Nanmen Yuzhi as Guardian Douluo while rewarding other allies.
• The Heaven Dou and Star Luo Empires tried to exploit the Dou Ling Empire's weakness, but their agents were killed and their spies rooted out by loyal families and sects.
• Huo Yuhao learned that the Xie Family had escaped through an underground passage and vanished into the mountains, leaving Ning Tian's search without results.
• Xu Tiancheng and the Sun Moon Empire sent a hostile envoy to Shrek Academy to question the Sea God Pavilion over its intervention in the Dou Ling Empire; after half a month of delays, the envoy arrived.

Shrek Academy dismissed the Sun Moon Empire’s envoy while Zhang Lexuan’s team struggled against the zombie legion in the Dou Ling Empire. During a battle, Hua Yao recognized one of the powerful Soul Zombies as a former Shrek student she had once loved.

• Shrek Academy kept the Sun Moon Empire’s envoy waiting and assigned four handpicked representatives to a low-level meeting, while Xu Tiancheng intended the visit to distract and provoke the academy.
• Huo Yuhao remained in the Dou Ling Empire to help Zhang Lexuan’s Supervision Group fight the zombie legion, postponing his return to refine the Golden Ancient Tree.

• Huo Yuhao, Hua Yao, and Wu Ming attacked a group containing two powerful Soul Zombies, and Hua Yao recognized one as a former Inner Court student she had secretly loved.

Huo Yuhao’s group encountered Gu Fan and Chu Qingtian, who had been turned into powerful Soul Zombies, during a mission against the Zombie Army. After they were brought to the Shrek Supervision Group’s stronghold, Hua Yao chose to have their bodies destroyed rather than leave them trapped in that form.

• Hua Yao and Wu Ming recognized Gu Fan and Chu Qingtian among the zombies and grew furious at Death God Messenger for turning Shrek Academy students into Soul Zombies.
• Huo Yuhao sealed Gu Fan and Chu Qingtian in Ultimate Ice and brought them to the Supervision Group’s stronghold for a decision on their fate.
• Xu San Shi asked his squad to destroy his body if he died or was infected with corpse poison, and the others agreed.
• Zhang Lexuan arrived, recognized that Gu Fan and Chu Qingtian could not be cured, and left the decision to Hua Yao.
• Hua Yao chose to destroy Gu Fan and Chu Qingtian’s bodies, and Wu Ming supported her decision.

Huo Yuhao’s squad continued its zombie-clearing mission after Wu Ming burned Gu Fan and Chu Qingtian’s bodies, while Huo Yuhao considered making the transforming Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie a host for one of his corpses. The Death God Messenger ambushed the squad, and the six women launched a coordinated counterattack as the chapter ended with their Martial Soul Avatars activated.

• Wu Ming burned Gu Fan’s and Chu Qingtian’s bodies to ash, and Huo Yuhao weighed the Thunder Soul Emperor Zombie’s potential as a host for the Middle Corpse or Upper Corpse.
• Huo Yuhao led Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, Hua Yao, Wu Ming, Xiao Xiao, and Meng Hongchen onward to eliminate zombies and train the squad.
• The Death God Messenger arrived on a Zombie Dragon, spread Death Qi over the area, and summoned zombies from beneath the ground to trap the squad.
• Hua Yao charged the Death God Messenger, and Wu Ming, Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, Meng Hongchen, and Xiao Xiao joined the attack and supported their companions.
• Hua Yao and Ling Luochen used their Seventh and Eighth Soul Skills to counter the Death Qi, while Wu Ming and Ma Xiaotao activated their Martial Soul Avatars.
