Chapter Summaries

After reaching rank 35, Huo Yuhao considered how to speed up his cultivation and decided to use the Golden Hawksbill’s flesh and Gold of Life. The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm persuaded the Golden Hawksbill to surrender, leaving Huo Yuhao to thaw it and prepare to make it his soul companion.

• Huo Yuhao assessed his new rank, stronger physique, improved soul power, and the slowing cultivation speed caused by his Ultimate Attribute.

The Golden Hawksbill sacrificed itself to Huo Yuhao, becoming the Ghost Banner Martial Soul’s third soul ring and leaving behind an External Soul Bone. The Golden Hawksbill Bloodline then triggered a new armor transformation in Huo Yuhao’s Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul, leaving Sky Dream Ice Silkworm stunned that he had not become part of it.

Huo Yuhao and Bei Bei turned a clash with Heaven Dou City's City Defense Army into a public fight, hoping to force the empire to compensate Shrek Academy and deepen tensions between them. The battle spread from a hotel into the streets as Huo Yuhao joined in and drew more soldiers into the conflict.

Huo Yuhao attended a secret banquet with the Tianhun Emperor and the imperial court, where he focused on the wealth of Fortune around the guests. When Diao Sheng of the Body Sect provoked him, Huo Yuhao faked an injury and stared at the Tianhun Emperor, leaving the emperor to confront Huo Yuhao’s attempt to expose his scheme.

• Huo Yuhao entered the palace banquet hall alone and identified the imperial family, officials, and three powerful guests from the Body Sect.

• Huo Yuhao stayed on the ground and fixed his gaze on the Tianhun Emperor, who realized Huo Yuhao was trying to stir up trouble.

The Tianhun Emperor explained how he had tried to exploit the rivalry between Shrek Academy and the Body Sect to strengthen the Heaven Dou Empire. Princess Wei Na approached Huo Yuhao to treat him and test whether their Martial Souls could resonate, while a Body Sect youth grew jealous.

• The Tianhun Emperor considered using the conflict between Shrek Academy and the Body Sect to free the Heaven Dou Empire from Shrek Academy's influence.

• A Body Sect youth watched Wei Na focus on Huo Yuhao and secretly prepared to strike if Huo Yuhao disrespected her.
• Huo Yuhao ignored Wei Na's greeting, but she took his hand to test whether their Soul Power could fuse, leaving the banquet guests stunned.

Huo Yuhao discovered that his soul power could fuse with Wei Na's, letting him absorb some of her fortune and energies, while the process made her feel strangely euphoric. After Long Aotian challenged him, the Tianhun Emperor allowed the fight to proceed, and Long Aotian charged at Huo Yuhao as he lay on the floor.

• Wei Na fused her soul power with Huo Yuhao's, and he found that he could draw on her power and fortune.
• Huo Yuhao sent his Ultimate Ice soul power into Wei Na, strengthening her soul power and Snow Lotus Martial Soul, but realized they could not form a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
