Chen Xinjie and Mu Ye realized that a clever Ferocious Beast had entered Lin Jin’s body to escape capture, while Lin Jin’s Lotus Flower Flame and extraordinary talent drew Chen Xinjie’s attention. They discussed whether the beast could become Lin Jin’s Spirit Soul as Lin Jin underwent a Second Awakening, ending with Mu Ye angrily challenging Chen Xinjie’s insult.

• Mu Ye considered gathering a complete set of top-tier Soul Bones for Lin Jin, who already possessed two powerful Soul Bones and would soon obtain another.

Lin Jin completed an unprecedented Second Awakening, strengthening his body and Lotus Flower Flame while gaining a silver-white spatial power. He learned that the Void Green Lotus wanted to become his Spirit Soul and heard Mu Ye’s account of Chen Xinjie’s invitation, which could help him reach the War God Temple’s Magma Fire Domain.

• Lin Jin sensed that the awakening had transformed his heart and expanded the Blood-Colored Lotus Mark from three layers to four.

• Lin Jin judged the students weak and asked why their king was not coming out, prompting them to threaten to teach him why the academy was called Monster.

• Lin Jin crossed the distance in an instant and knocked Teng Teng into Monster Academy with one punch.
• Teng Teng returned to the battlefield and attacked Lin Jin with Shadow Slash, but Lin Jin caught and crushed the Shadow Blade in his armored hand.

• Lin Jin picked up his fallen sign, read its insulting message aloud, and challenged the Monster Academy to respond.

• Lin Jin invited Su Mu to spar after defeating Teng Teng, but Su Mu admitted he was no match for Lin Jin’s Spirit Abyss Realm Spiritual Power.

• Mu Ye appeared in Four-Word Battle Armor and rebuked the Star Luo Empire’s powerhouses for refusing to accept Lin Jin’s victory.

• Vast Sea Douluo Chen Xinjie arrived and revealed that he had followed Mu Ye to protect Lin Jin.
• En Ci recognized Chen Xinjie and cautiously addressed him.

Chen Xinjie’s arrival stunned the Star Luo Empire’s leaders, who recognized the immense military and combat-power gap between him and their strongest fighters. After En Ci questioned whether Lin Jin should face Long Yue, Lin Jin accepted the prospect of a real fight and asked Mu Ye about the level of the Evil Spirit Orca he had killed during special training.

• Dai Yueyan and the Star Luo Empire’s leaders recognized Chen Xinjie as a Quasi-God and feared the Federation’s overwhelming strength.
• Chen Xinjie said he had come to watch a Federation junior test himself, while En Ci doubted his explanation and worried about the empire’s vulnerability.

• Lin Jin said he wanted a satisfying battle and asked Mu Ye what level the Evil Spirit Orca he had killed during special training was.

After Lin Jin revealed that he had killed a fifty-thousand-year Evil Spirit Orca, En Ci recognized the boy’s extraordinary strength and learned that Mu Ye was the Body Sect Master. The Star Luo Empire turned Lin Jin’s promised match with Long Yue into a heavily promoted public spectacle, and Long Yue was finally introduced as the fight’s first entrant.

• Lin Jin’s claim about killing a fifty-thousand-year Evil Spirit Orca shocked En Ci, Teng Teng, and Dai Yueyan.

• Dai Tianling attended and delivered an official speech before the host introduced Monster Academy’s Dragon King, Long Yue.

• En Ci told Long Yue that Lin Jin was a formidable opponent and urged him to control his emotions, and Long Yue promised not to hurt him.
• Long Yue entered Star Luo Grand Stadium to loud cheers and declared that he would protect the empire's glory.

• Lin Jin calmly faced Long Yue, who doubted that a Soul Ancestor could pose a real challenge.

Lin Jin mocked Long Yue for keeping everyone waiting, and En Ci proposed wagering the Body Sect Secret Technique on the youths’ match. Mu Ye rejected the demand, then accepted a wager involving Hu Jie before Dai Tianling offered a divine artifact instead; the chapter ended with the stakes still awaiting Mu Ye’s answer.

• Lin Jin mocked Long Yue’s arrogance and complained that Star Luo Empire had kept Mu Ye and Chen Xinjie waiting for two and a half hours.
• En Ci offered Mu Ye a wager: Monster Academy’s secret technique if Lin Jin won, or the Body Sect Secret Technique for Long Yue if he lost.
• Mu Ye angrily rejected En Ci’s proposal after En Ci brought up Hu Jie’s connection to the Body Sect.
• Hu Jie appeared, and Mu Ye accepted the wager but demanded that Hu Jie kill Long Yue if Lin Jin lost.
• Dai Tianling proposed replacing that condition with a divine artifact from Star Luo Empire, while Mu Ye would teach Long Yue the Body Sect’s core secret technique and help his Martial Soul achieve Second Awakening if Long Yue lost.

Mu Ye accepted a wager that Lin Jin would defeat Long Yue, with a divine artifact at stake, and the two began their arena battle. Lin Jin’s five-colored flames and six indistinguishable forms countered Long Yue’s opening attacks, but Long Yue roared to expose his true body.

• Mu Ye agreed to wager that Lin Jin would defeat Long Yue, and Chen Xinjie agreed to witness it while Dai Tianling affirmed the stakes.
