• Qin Yue paralyzed the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and slammed it into the ground, breaking its spine and leaving it near death.

• Qin Yue cut off and searched the bear's right forelimb, finding a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Right Palm Bone.
• Qin Yue explained the External Soul Bone's value and growth potential, and Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong said the discovery made the trip worthwhile.

After Xiao Xiao absorbed the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear’s Soul Ring, Huo Yuhao cooked the bear meat while Qin Yue kept the right palm bone. The group feasted together, and Xiao Xiao joined them as soon as she woke.

• Qin Yue stored the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Right Palm Bone and asked Huo Yuhao to cook the bear.
• Huo Yuhao prepared the bear meat while Wang Dong gathered wood and set up a grill.
• Huo Yuhao roasted bear paw skewers, and Qin Yue and Wang Dong tasted them.
• Qin Yue had Huo Yuhao freeze the remaining meat and set aside a portion for Xiao Xiao.
• Xiao Xiao finished absorbing her Soul Ring, woke, and rushed to the grill to eat the roasted bear meat.

Qin Yue absorbed the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's Right Palm Bone after Xiao Xiao refused it, gaining the ability to unleash five dark golden blades from his fingertips. With night falling, he proposed that the group camp in the Star Dou Forest, then used his Thunder to clear the area of nearby threats.

• Xiao Xiao refused the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Right Palm Bone and urged Qin Yue to take it instead.
• Qin Yue stunned the Ten Thousand Year Demon Tiger Cat, had Huo Yuhao freeze it, and began absorbing the Right Palm Bone while Huo Yuhao kept watch.
• Qin Yue absorbed the bone in less than an hour and demonstrated five dark golden Light Blades extending from his fingertips.
• Xiao Xiao jokingly asked Qin Yue to marry into her family, and he played along before she teased that her elder sisters would object.
• Qin Yue suggested the group camp for the night, then released Thunder that scorched everything within several kilometers to drive away nearby Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bears.

Huo Yuhao spent ten fruitless days searching for a suitable Soul Beast while Wang Dong’s growing closeness stirred confusing feelings in him. That night, a group of strangers arrived at their camp, and their scout recognized Qin Yue, prompting their leader, Mo Feiyun, to greet him cautiously.

• Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao camped outside the Star Dou Forest after another unsuccessful search, and Huo Yuhao refused to venture farther because it could harm his evaluation.
• Wang Dong urged Huo Yuhao to treat the search as an outing, and Huo Yuhao grew flustered as he reflected on his feelings for her.
• Qin Yue and the Ten Thousand Year Demon Tiger Cat sensed strangers approaching the camp at night.
• A tall, thin man from a group of six men and two women questioned Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao about their presence.
• Qin Yue emerged from his tent, the scout recognized him with alarm, and the group’s leader introduced himself as Mo Feiyun.

Qin Yue and his companions met Mo Feiyun’s group while traveling, and Qin Yue’s breakthrough to Soul King made the group wary and eager to recruit him. After learning more about Qin Yue and Huo Yuhao, Mu Xue and Vina wondered whether Huo Yuhao possessed an Ultimate Attribute.

• Qin Yue introduced himself to Mo Feiyun, while the bamboo-pole man realized Qin Yue and his companions were connected to Shrek Academy and regretted his earlier behavior.
• Mo Feiyun told Mu Xue that Qin Yue had broken through to Soul King, and the group reacted with shock at his increased strength.
• A girl suggested inviting Qin Yue to hunt soul beasts with them, and Mo Feiyun said they might succeed if they had a suitable connection.
• Mo Feiyun secretly reported to Mu Xue and Vina that Qin Yue was the famous prodigy and that two of his companions might have appeared in the tournament’s opening match.
• Mu Xue told Vina that Huo Yuhao seemed to suppress her and affect her Martial Soul, leading them to wonder whether he possessed an Ultimate Attribute.

Vina and Mu Xue worried about Qin Yue’s rapid cultivation, while Mo Feiyun failed to recruit him for a hunt in the Star Dou Forest. Huo Yuhao found a rare, fifteen-thousand-year Phantom Heart Butterfly suited to his mental attribute and asked Qin Yue to help capture it.

• Vina told Mu Xue that Qin Yue had reached Soul King and discussed the possible marriage alliance with Long Aotian, then sent Mo Feiyun to ask Qin Yue to join their hunt.
• The next morning, Qin Yue declined Mo Feiyun’s invitation, and Huo Yuhao’s group set off separately to avoid crossing paths with them.
• Sky Dream Ice Silkworm detected a mental-attribute Soul Beast nearby, and Huo Yuhao recognized it as a Phantom Heart Butterfly with a fifteen-thousand-year Soul Ring.
• Huo Yuhao asked Qin Yue to help capture the powerful butterfly, and Qin Yue agreed.

Huo Yuhao absorbed a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring from the Phantom Heart Butterfly after Qin Yue subdued it, relying on his Spirit Eye Martial Soul to seal away some of its power. He survived the four-hour absorption and revealed his new Third Soul Skill, Phantom Butterfly Ghost Shadow.

• Qin Yue used Thunder Nightmare Thousand Prisons to paralyze the Phantom Heart Butterfly, allowing Huo Yuhao to kill it with the White Tiger Dagger.
• Wang Dong questioned Huo Yuhao's decision to absorb the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, but agreed to stay with him after he explained how his Spirit Eye Martial Soul could suppress its power.
• Huo Yuhao spent nearly four hours absorbing the Soul Ring while Wang Dong and Qian Duoduo anxiously watched over him.
• Qian Duoduo examined Huo Yuhao after he awoke and confirmed that he had absorbed the Soul Ring without harm.
• Huo Yuhao named his Third Soul Skill Phantom Butterfly Ghost Shadow and explained that it created a mental field that induced illusions in enemies within fifty meters.

Huo Yuhao demonstrated his new illusion soul skill before Qian Duoduo, Qin Yue, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao, then the group prepared to return to the academy. Qin Yue stayed behind and rode with Scarlet King to the Star Dou Forest’s Land of Great Calamity, where Scarlet King asked him to stop telling the Imperial Auspicious Beast about so many things from the human world.

• Huo Yuhao used his Third Soul Skill to make Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao mistake an illusion for reality, but Qin Yue broke it almost immediately with his silver-white lightning.
• Qian Duoduo praised Huo Yuhao’s soul skills and led him, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao away from the Star Dou Forest.
• Qin Yue stayed behind and greeted Scarlet King, who appeared before him after a Title Douluo-level aura rose nearby.
• Qin Yue tossed aside the terrified Ten Thousand Year Demon Tiger Cat, climbed onto Scarlet King’s back, and rode with him toward the Core Zone.
• After reaching the Land of Great Calamity, Scarlet King asked Qin Yue to describe fewer things from the human world to the Imperial Auspicious Beast.

Qin Yue returned to the Lake of Life and promised Qiu'er he would help her persuade Di Tian to let her visit the human world. When Di Tian rejected the request, Qin Yue revealed that he was the Thunder God's successor, personally chosen by the God of Destruction, and earned the chance to explain his plan.

• Scarlet King brought Qin Yue back to the Lake of Life, where Qiu'er enthusiastically greeted him and licked him for over half an hour.
• Qiu'er complained that Qin Yue had not taken her to the Outer Zone, and he told her he had found a way to persuade Di Tian.
• Qiu'er worried that Di Tian might forbid Qin Yue from visiting again, but Qin Yue promised to find another way and warned her not to leave the Star Dou Forest alone.
• Qin Yue and Qiu'er went to find Di Tian, who refused to let the Imperial Auspicious Beast leave the Star Dou Forest.
• Qin Yue revealed that he was the successor to the Thunder God, chosen by the God of Destruction, causing Di Tian to halt his attack and agree to hear Qin Yue out.

Qin Yue explained to Di Tian how the Soul Beast race might overcome its inability to become gods and its conflict with Soul Masters. Di Tian became interested in supporting Qin Yue’s rise and was stunned by the possibility of artificially made Soul Rings.

• Qin Yue told Di Tian that Soul Beasts faced two threats: they could not become gods, and Soul Masters’ growing numbers and power were depleting Soul Beasts.
• Qin Yue said he might help change the God Realm’s ban, since he had a path to ascend and had attracted the God of Destruction’s attention.
• Qin Yue revealed that the Asura God King, the God King of Goodness, and the God King of Evil had left the God Realm, and Di Tian considered helping Qin Yue inherit a God King’s position.
• Qin Yue asked whether Di Tian had studied Soul Tools, and Di Tian said he had captured a Level 9 Soul Master who died without teaching him.
• Qin Yue proposed that Soul Tools might manufacture artificial Soul Rings, and Di Tian realized these could ease the Soul Beast race’s decline.

Qin Yue convinced Di Tian that Artificial Soul Rings could help save the Soul Beast clan and warned him that Tang San was scheming to control Douluo Continent and its fortune. Di Tian agreed to let Qiu'er travel with Qin Yue under Zi Ji’s protection, but the warning left him considering how to verify Tang San’s plans.

• Qin Yue explained that God-Bestowed Soul Rings proved Artificial Soul Rings were feasible, and Di Tian became eager to pursue the technology.
• Di Tian agreed to let Qiu'er leave with Qin Yue, provided Zi Ji accompanied them.
• Qin Yue warned Di Tian that Tang San was targeting Shrek Academy’s Golden Tree and Douluo Continent’s Plane Will.
• Qin Yue implied that Tang San had also sought the Imperial Auspicious Beast’s fortune before Qin Yue gained a Divine Position Inheritance.
• Di Tian recognized that the Plane Core could be checked discreetly and believed Qin Yue’s warning in part.

Qin Yue persuaded Di Tian to target the Holy Spirit Cult for Soul Engineer expertise, then helped Qiu'er transform into human form so they could visit the human world together. Qiu'er successfully took on a young woman's body and tried on human clothes, leaving both of them pleased with her new appearance.

• Qin Yue convinced Di Tian that capturing Level 9 Soul Masters from the Holy Spirit Cult would be more effective than trying to recruit Soul Engineers from Ming Virtue Hall.
• Di Tian gave Qiu'er a few instructions and hurried away from the Lake of Life to act on Qin Yue's suggestion.
• Qin Yue told Qiu'er to take human form before they went out, and she began transforming in a burst of Bright Golden Radiance.
• Qiu'er emerged as a golden-haired young woman and enthusiastically embraced Qin Yue.
• Qiu'er struggled to dress herself, so Qin Yue helped her put on a complete outfit before she admired her new clothes.

Qin Yue used the Power of Fate to erase Qiu'er's Soul Beast aura and make her appear to have been born human. With her transformation complete enough to travel, Qiu'er urged him to set off for the cities he had described.

• Qiu'er noticed Qin Yue watching her, then licked him after realizing he had said she had forgotten something.
• Qin Yue stopped Qiu'er from licking him again and explained that they still needed to conceal her Soul Beast aura.
• Qin Yue used the Power of Fate to obscure Qiu'er's Soul Beast origins and make her seem human, though she remained half-human and still needed to complete her rebuilding.
• Qiu'er climbed onto Qin Yue's back and asked him to take her to Shrek City, Forest Spirit City, and the other cities he had told her about.
• Qin Yue agreed and planned to catch up with Huo Yuhao and the others on their way back to Shrek Academy for more barbecue.

Qin Yue found Zi Ji and brought her along with Qiu'er toward Shrek City, where they caught up with Huo Yuhao's group. The new companions joined the journey back to Shrek Academy, while Xiao Xiao privately compared herself unfavorably to Qiu'er.

• Qin Yue asked Qiu'er where Zi Ji stayed, and Qiu'er led him to the Beast of Calamity in a damp depression.
• Zi Ji agreed to accompany Qin Yue and Qiu'er, explaining that Shrek Academy would not detect her true form if she kept her power contained.
• Qin Yue arranged cover identities for Qiu'er and Zi Ji and instructed Zi Ji to pose as a newly advanced rank 91 Title Douluo around others.
• Qin Yue, Qiu'er, and Zi Ji left the Star Dou Forest and caught up with Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao before nightfall.
• Xiao Xiao noticed Qiu'er's figure and worried that she could not compete with the beautiful women around Qin Yue.

Qin Yue introduced Qiu'er and Zi Ji to Ice Empress and Mu Jin at Qin Mansion before taking Qiu'er out to explore Shrek City. Zi Ji learned of Ice Empress's extraordinary strength and breakthrough, and grew curious about how she had surpassed her limits.

• Qiu'er grew restless at Qin Mansion and urged Qin Yue to take her out to see Shrek City.
• Ice Empress and Mu Jin returned to Qin Mansion, and Zi Ji became alarmed when she could not sense Ice Empress's presence.
• Qin Yue introduced Qiu'er and Zi Ji to Ice Empress, revealing her identity and recent rise into the top five among the Ten Great Beasts of Calamity.
• Qiu'er pulled Qin Yue out to explore the city while Ice Empress and Zi Ji stayed behind.
• Zi Ji wondered how Ice Empress had broken through her cultivation limit, and Ice Empress noticed her curiosity and formed a plan.

Qin Yue dismissed Xian Lin'er’s invitation to join the Ultimate Soldier Project, while the Ice Empress visited Zi Ji to exploit her desire for strength and reveal Qin Yue’s role in saving her from a Heaven Tribulation. She left Zi Ji questioning why Di Tian had allowed Qin Yue to take the Imperial Auspicious Beast into the human world.

• Mu Jin told Qin Yue that Xian Lin'er wanted him to join the Ultimate Soldier Project, but he rejected the idea and told Mu Jin to involve Yan Shaozhe if Xian Lin'er caused trouble.
• Qin Yue carried the exhausted Mu Jin into the bathroom, insisting she wash up before sleeping.
• Zi Ji lay awake wondering how the Ice Empress had survived her Heaven Tribulation and whether she could learn the secret.
• The Ice Empress entered Zi Ji’s room and restrained her, then admitted Qin Yue had helped her survive her four-hundred-thousand-year Heaven Tribulation.
• The Ice Empress asked Zi Ji why Di Tian had let Qin Yue take the Imperial Auspicious Beast from Star Dou Forest, suggesting Qin Yue might matter more to Di Tian than the beast; Zi Ji insisted that was impossible.

Ice Empress told Zi Ji that Qin Yue could help her resist the gods and revive the Dragon Clan, revealing his connections to divine inheritances. Zi Ji resisted at first but began considering joining Qin Yue’s group and paying a price to become strong enough to protect her kin.

• Ice Empress argued that Qin Yue only helped people close to him and that Zi Ji’s charm might be her way of gaining his support.
• Zi Ji rejected the suggestion, but Ice Empress reminded her that the God Realm could thwart her ambitions and kill her if she reached a million years of cultivation.
• Ice Empress demonstrated a divine skill from the Ice God Legacy and explained that Qin Yue had obtained a Divine Position Inheritance and still had an unclaimed Wind God Legacy.
• Ice Empress warned Zi Ji that the Water God opposed Qin Yue, then left her to consider the path she had described.
• Zi Ji wondered whether Qin Yue was a child of fortune and began considering accepting a role in his group to gain strength and protect her kin.

Qin Yue summoned Ling Luochen and presented her with a black-boxed treasure and a seventy-thousand-year Ice Jade Scorpion Left Arm Bone, which could help her Martial Soul evolve into Ultimate Ice. He welcomed her into the Qin Clan and asked her to put pressure on someone, leaving the target unstated.

• Qin Yue asked Mu Jin to notify Ling Luochen to visit his house.
• Qin Yue played Jungle Chess with Qiu'er while Zi Ji watched, and Ling Luochen arrived near noon.
• Qin Yue led Ling Luochen into a side room and showed her the Ice Jade Scorpion Left Arm Bone and a black box.
• Qin Yue welcomed Ling Luochen into the Qin Clan, offered her the treasures as rewards, and asked her to put pressure on someone.

Qin Yue gave Ling Luochen the Myriad-Year Profound Ice Marrow to help transform her Ice Element Martial Soul into Ultimate Ice. Ling Luochen survived the dangerous absorption and awakened a snowlike figure whose resemblance to the Snow Empress surprised Qin Yue and the Ice Empress, though the Ice Empress said it was not a Snow Maiden.

• Ling Luochen accepted Qin Yue's offer to absorb the Myriad-Year Profound Ice Marrow, which he said could transform her Martial Soul into Ultimate Ice.
• Qin Yue summoned the Ice Empress to watch over Ling Luochen as she began absorbing the treasure.
• Ling Luochen endured more than half an hour of extreme cold, and the Ice Empress confirmed that she had passed the most dangerous stage.
• The Myriad-Year Profound Ice Marrow merged into Ling Luochen, and she began recovering as the ice around her fell away.
• Ling Luochen's aura surged and a snow-cloaked figure appeared behind her, prompting Qin Yue and the Ice Empress to wonder if it was the Snow Empress.
• The Ice Empress determined that the figure had Ultimate Ice but was not a Snow Maiden.

Ling Luochen successfully evolved her Martial Soul into the Princess of Snow and reached level 60, so Qin Yue planned to take her to the Far North for a Sixth Soul Ring. The next morning, Qin Yue set out with the Ice Empress, Qiu'er, Ling Luochen, and Zi Ji, while Ma Xiaotao continued cultivating at Shrek Academy and considered joining the Qin Clan for help with her Evil Fire.

• Ling Luochen awoke after her Martial Soul evolution, and Qin Yue confirmed that her personality had not drastically changed.
• Ling Luochen named her new Ultimate Ice Martial Soul the Princess of Snow and explained its powers, its affinity with icy environments, and her rise to level 60.
• Qin Yue gave Ling Luochen the Ice Jade Scorpion Left Arm Bone and said she should fuse with it after obtaining her Sixth Soul Ring in the Far North.
• Ma Xiaotao continued cultivating after sealing Ultimate Ice energy in her dantian, reached level 69, and considered joining the Qin Clan while fearing she might have to leave Shrek Academy.
• Qin Yue, the Ice Empress, Qiu'er, Ling Luochen, and Zi Ji left Qin Mansion to travel to the Far North.
