Chapter Summaries

The Dragon Clan Squad entered its final exam, facing a virtual Tang San whom Yun Ming had secretly boosted to five times his normal combat strength. Ji Fengyu prepared to test himself against the legendary Sea God as both sides readied their soul rings.

• The Dragon Clan Squad used its bloodline power to form dragon wings and demonstrate the Flying Dragon in the Sky technique.
• Wu Zhangkong brought the squad to the Sea God Pavilion, where Yun Ming told them their final exam opponent would be a great figure.
• After seeing Tang Wulin's bloodline power resonate with the squad, Yun Ming secretly ordered the virtual Tang San's combat strength raised to five times normal.
• Yun Ming revealed that the opponent was Tang San, while Ji Fengyu suspected Shrek had secretly strengthened him far beyond the claimed fifty percent.
• Yun Ming led the squad into a virtual space, where Ji Fengyu and the First-generation Shrek Seven Devils announced their levels before preparing to reveal their soul rings.

The Dragon Clan Squad and the Shrek Seven Devils began their match by stacking powerful enhancements, but Tang Wulin’s bloodline overwhelmed the original Seven Devils’ beast martial soul users. As Tang San unleashed an enhanced barrage of hidden weapons, Tang Wulin shielded Ji Fengyu, leaving the fight poised for Tang San’s next attack.

• Ning Rongrong and Oscar boosted the Shrek Seven Devils, while Ji Fengyu and Lan Xuanyu strengthened the Dragon Clan Squad.
• Tang Wulin led the Dragon Clan Squad’s charge as the Shrek Seven Devils formed a matching assault.
• Tang Wulin’s Golden Dragon Claw bloodline frightened Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and Ma Hongjun, allowing the Dragon Clan Squad to kill all four in one exchange.
• Yun Ming ordered the virtual combat platform’s overseers to boost Tang San and Oscar after the Shrek Seven Devils’ sudden losses.
• Tang San went berserk over Xiao Wu’s defeat and unleashed hidden weapons without cooldown, while Tang Wulin shielded Ji Fengyu and the team supported him.
• Tang San invoked a single tear of compassion as his hidden-weapon barrage continued.

Tang San’s Guanyin’s Tears failed to harm Ji Fengyu, so Tang Wulin let Tang San’s divine sense possess him to fight Robot Tang San. The two Tang Sans began facing off with Tang Sect techniques, but Robot Tang San’s unfamiliar Ten Halls of Yama left Tang San’s divine sense stunned.

• Robot Tang San used Guanyin’s Tears against Ji Fengyu, who evaded it with his Snake Molting Soul Skill and left only snakeskin to be pierced.
• Yun Ming raged that Guanyin’s Tears had failed, while Tang Wulin turned against Robot Tang San for attacking Ji Fengyu.
• Tang Wulin handed control of his body to Tang San’s divine sense, who took over and challenged Robot Tang San with Tang Sect Secret Arts.
• Robot Tang San answered with Ten Halls of Yama, a hidden weapon technique Tang San’s divine sense had never seen and Ji Fengyu recognized as Shen Wushang’s technique.

Tang San’s Divine Sense took control of Tang Wulin and used his Ocean Martial Soul to break Robot Tang San’s Ten Halls of Yama. After battling evenly with the robot, he brought out the Golden Dragon King’s power and prepared to finish the fight.

• Tang San marveled at the Ten Halls of Yama and felt an uncanny familiarity with Tang Wulin’s Golden Dragon King bloodline.
• Tang San used ten precise sprays from Tang Wulin’s first Soul Skill to strike the hidden weapon technique’s weak points and break it.
• Xie Xie and the Dragon Clan Squad were stunned by Tang Wulin’s sudden mastery, while Ji Fengyu recognized that Tang San had taken over his body.
• Yun Ming refused to raise Robot Tang San’s stats again, despite the elders’ alarm at the apparent defeat.
• Tang San fought Robot Tang San with the Ocean Martial Soul, then unleashed the Golden Dragon Claw as part of the Vast Ocean Universe Claw.

The Dragon Clan Squad defeated Robot Tang San, but Tang Wulin questioned the suspiciously powerful opponent and Yun Ming tried to explain it away with exaggerated claims. After Tang San exposed Yun Ming’s lies, Wu Zhangkong offered the squad rewards, ending with a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone for each member.

• Tang Wulin used Vast Ocean Universe Claw to destroy Robot Tang San, then Tang San killed Oscar and Ning Rongrong to complete the assessment.
• Yun Ming awarded the Dragon Clan Squad full marks, but Tang Wulin questioned whether the records about Ancestor Tang San were accurate because the robot had fought far above its level.
• Yun Ming claimed Robot Tang San had less than half the real Tang San’s strength, and Tang Wulin and the others initially believed him.
• Tang San emerged from Tang Wulin’s sea of consciousness and denounced Yun Ming’s claims, convincing Tang Wulin that Shrek had rigged the assessment.
• Yun Ming left Wu Zhangkong to handle the rewards, and Wu Zhangkong offered the Dragon Clan Squad a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone each after they dismissed the Two-Word Battle Armor offer.

Ji Fengyu dismissed the Dragon Clan Squad for the holiday, but Xie Xie discovered that everyone planned to spend the break with Ji Fengyu. In Mingdu, Qiangu Zhangting took Ji Fengyu and the others to scout the concert venue, where their ride in his mecha ended in a devastating explosion.

• Ji Fengyu and the Dragon Clan Squad accepted Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones as rewards for completing their final assessment, then parted for the holiday, leaving Xie Xie out of their plans.
• Ji Fengyu trusted Qiangu Zhangting to handle his Ten-Year Lone Bamboo cigarette endorsement and concert arrangements in Mingdu.
• Qiangu Zhangting drove Ji Fengyu, Tang Wulin, and the others toward the concert venue through heavy traffic, then suggested they switch to his mecha.
• Qiangu Zhangting's mecha exploded as the group boarded, killing and injuring people on the road below, while Di Tian protected the group.
• Ji Fengyu emerged from the blast and blamed Tang Wulin's bad luck, telling him not to ride with them again.

Dark Hummingbird and Dark Bell failed to assassinate the Dragon Clan Squad, who escaped to the Spirit Pagoda in Mingdu. Ji Fengyu ordered the academy to investigate the bombing and angrily blamed Mingdu’s poor security.

• Ji Fengyu urged the Dragon Clan Squad to flee after an explosion nearly killed them, and Lan Xuanyu boosted the team before they flew to the Spirit Pagoda.
• Dark Hummingbird and Dark Bell revealed they had planted the soul-guided explosives on the Ghost Emperor’s orders, but they abandoned their attack after Di Tian intervened.
• Dark Hummingbird blamed Wu Zhangkong for training the Dragon Clan Squad and vanished with Dark Bell.
• Qiangu Zhangting chased the team to the Spirit Pagoda and insisted he had known nothing about the bombs, while Tang Wulin also pleaded his innocence.
• Ji Fengyu said he did not truly blame Tang Wulin, then told the group to contact the academy and investigate the bombing.

After the bombing, Ji Fengyu offered two sets of Four-Word Battle Armor for the two Rank 98 Super Douluos responsible, drawing the attention of Shrek and the Holy Spirit Cult. The Holy Spirit Cult debated whether to turn over Dark Hummingbird and Dark Bell, while Ha Luosa prepared to collect the bounty.

• Ji Fengyu promised a set of Four-Word Battle Armor to anyone who found the assassins, and Qiangu Zhangting and Lan Xuanyu mobilized the Spirit Pagoda and Shrek to investigate.
• Tang Wulin learned from Tang San that two Rank 98 Titled Douluos had carried out the attack and relayed the information to Ji Fengyu.
• Ji Fengyu doubled the bounty to two sets of Four-Word Battle Armor and posted it to his social media account, sparking a continent-wide frenzy.
• Ghost Emperor convened Ha Luosa and the Four Heavenly Kings, whose attention turned to Dark Hummingbird and Dark Bell as possible sacrifices for the bounty.
• Dark Hummingbird and Dark Bell protested that the bounty was a trap, but Ha Luosa cited Zhen Hua's offer of three collateral sets of Four-Word Battle Armor and readied his sword.

Ghost Emperor and Ha Luosa decided to wait until public attention faded before trading Dark Hummingbird and Dark Bell for Four-Word Battle Armor, while Long Yeyue set out to capture them. Ji Fengyu persuaded Zhen Hua to accept the burden of supplying five sets of Four-Word Battle Armor, and Tang Wulin promised to become a rank-six blacksmith during vacation.

• Ghost Emperor stopped Ha Luosa from acting on the Four-Word Battle Armor deal, and they agreed to wait for the storm of attention to pass before trading Dark Hummingbird and Dark Bell.
• Ghost Emperor told Dark Hummingbird and Dark Bell that bounty hunters were seeking them and that they would serve the Holy Church by becoming the trade price.
• Long Yeyue saw the news and set off to hunt Dark Hummingbird and Dark Bell for the promised Four-Word Battle Armor.
• Mu Ye and Zhen Hua visited Ji Fengyu after the explosion in Mingdu, and Zhen Hua complained that the deal would leave him responsible for five sets of armor.
• Ji Fengyu promised that he and Tang Wulin would repay Zhen Hua once they became Divine Craftsmen, and Zhen Hua agreed to treat the work as an investment.
• Tang Wulin promised Zhen Hua he would become a rank-six blacksmith during vacation, and Zhen Hua encouraged him.

Ji Fengyu put two suits of Four-Word Battle Armor up as bounties and drew the interest of Gu Yue and the Soul Beasts. When Long Chen of Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy challenged the Dragon Clan Squad, Ji Fengyu accepted the fight.

• Zhen Hua tried to recruit Tang Wulin as Ji Fengyu’s fellow disciple, but Tang Wulin stayed loyal to Mu Chen.
• Ji Fengyu confirmed he would give away two suits of Four-Word Battle Armor, and Gu Yue called on the Ferocious Beasts to join the bounty hunters.
• Na'er reported Long Chen’s challenge and read his claim that his Holy Light Dragon could suppress the Dragon Clan Squad because Xie Xie was absent.
• Tang Wulin and the others laughed at Long Chen’s boast, and Ji Fengyu agreed to fight him.

Ji Fengyu accepted Long Chen’s challenge and arranged for the Dragon Clan Squad to face the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy during a two-minute break in his Mingdu concert opening ceremony. Long Chen confidently believed his Holy Light Dragon could suppress the team’s dragon martial souls, especially with Xie Xie absent.

• Tang Wulin and Gu Yue volunteered to defeat Long Chen, but Ji Fengyu insisted on a proper six-against-six match.
• Ji Fengyu told Na'er to invite Long Chen’s team to fight during a two-minute gap in the Mingdu concert opening ceremony.
• Long Chen and the others angrily accepted the arrangement, determined to defeat Shrek and restore the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy’s reputation.
• Long Chen claimed his Holy Light Dragon was the strongest dragon-type martial soul and could suppress the Dragon Clan Squad’s dragon martial souls.
• Long Chen said Xie Xie was the team’s only formidable Holy Light Dragon user and believed his absence meant the Dragon Clan Squad would lose.

Long Chen challenged Ji Fengyu's Dragon Clan Squad, confident that his Holy Light Dragon could suppress them because Xie Xie was absent. As the concert began, Ji Fengyu warned Long Chen that his Martial Soul might flee, leaving Long Chen confused.

• Kuang Zhantian and Xue Liushuang questioned Long Chen's confidence, but he checked Ji Fengyu's concert roster and confirmed Xie Xie was not listed.
• Ji Fengyu and the Dragon Clan Squad prepared backstage and took the stage at the concert in Mingdu.
• Long Chen saw that Xie Xie was absent and challenged Ji Fengyu, boasting that his Holy Light Dragon could defeat the squad's Dragon Martial Souls.
• Ji Fengyu asked whether the squad's Martial Soul bloodlines might outrank Long Chen's, but Long Chen insisted the Holy Light Dragon was strongest.
• Ji Fengyu told Long Chen that his Martial Soul would probably run away, leaving Long Chen puzzled.

Long Chen faced the Dragon Clan Squad while mistaking his body’s fear response for excitement and eagerness to fight. As Yun Ming and Ya Li watched for signs of his Martial Soul running away, Long Chen stood in the ring trembling and felt as if he were about to fly.

• Long Chen taunted Ji Fengyu, while Tang Wulin grew furious and prepared to tear him apart.
• Ji Fengyu held Tang Wulin back, and Long Chen misread his racing heart and trembling as excitement for battle.
• Yun Ming and Ya Li watched from the VIP seats, hoping to learn how Long Chen’s Holy Light Dragon Martial Soul would react.
• Mu Ye fretted about the cost of feeding Ji Fengyu and the others, and Zhen Hua agreed to pay for the ingredients.
• Long Chen faced the Dragon Clan Squad in the ring, trembling and feeling as though he were about to float away.

Ji Fengyu awakened the Queen's Domain, driving the Dragon Clan Squad into a frenzy and greatly boosting their power before the fight began. Long Chen's Holy Light Dragon fled in fear and was devoured, leaving him unable to summon his Martial Soul as the Dragon Clan Squad prepared to face his team.

• Ji Fengyu's Queen's Domain increased allied dragon-attribute units' attributes by 100%, weakened enemy dragon-attribute units, and shared damage among allies.
• Tang Wulin, Gu Yue, Lan Xuanyu, Na'er, Wang Jinxi, and Di Tian surged in power as the domain combined with their frenzy, while Kuang Zhantian and Xue Liushuang grew alarmed.
• Long Chen repeatedly tried to summon his Light Sacred Dragon Martial Soul, but the Holy Light Dragon had fled and been devoured.
• Yun Ming told Ya Li that the Holy Light Dragon had abandoned Long Chen because it feared the powerful presence behind Ji Fengyu.
• The Dragon Horn Python ate fried fish and decided to feed a Queen's Domain back to Ji Fengyu.

The Dragon Horn Python decided to transform into a seductive woman in the Dragon Valley to protect Ji Fengyu, while Long Chen discovered that his Light Sacred Dragon Martial Soul had vanished. Tang Wulin struck Long Chen, but a Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy teacher intervened and demanded an explanation for the missing martial soul.

• The Dragon Horn Python resolved to take human form as a femme fatale, erase her memories, and become Ji Fengyu’s Spirit Soul wife.
• Long Chen panicked when he could no longer contact his Light Sacred Dragon Martial Soul, alarming Kuang Zhantian and Xue Liushuang.
• Long Chen attempted Martial Soul Possession just as Tang Wulin charged him with his Golden Dragon Claw.
• A Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy teacher blocked Tang Wulin’s strike and admitted that his team had lost the battle.
• The teacher shielded Long Chen and demanded that Tang Wulin explain what had happened to his Light Sacred Dragon Martial Soul.

After Long Chen and three Sun Moon Academy teachers confronted the Dragon Clan Squad, Yun Ming and Shrek’s other powerful figures intervened and overwhelmed them. The teachers offered compensation to stop Yun Ming from attacking them.

• Long Chen demanded that Ji Fengyu return his martial soul, and three Titled Douluo teachers surrounded the Dragon Clan Squad with their pressure.

• The teachers pleaded that it was a misunderstanding, but Yun Ming refused to accept their excuse and threatened to keep them there.
• The three teachers offered every Shrek student a Purple-Grade Mecha as compensation.

Yun Ming settled the confrontation with the Sun Moon Royal Academy teachers, and Ji Fengyu resumed his concert with a song that moved the audience and left several members of the Dragon Clan Squad overwhelmed. The chapter ended with Ji Fengyu noticing that Lan Xuanyu, Gu Yue, and Na'er had all collapsed.

• Yun Ming accepted six sets of Purple-Grade Mecha from the Sun Moon teachers and declared the dispute settled.
• Mu Ye checked Ji Fengyu, and Ji Fengyu thanked the seniors before continuing his concert.
• Ji Fengyu performed a song that moved the audience and stirred powerful feelings in Gu Yue, Lan Xuanyu, the Dragon Horn Python, and Na'er.
• Tang Wulin grew jealous as Gu Yue was moved by the song, while the Dragon Clan Squad members each believed it had been written for them.
• Ji Fengyu finished the song and noticed Lan Xuanyu, Gu Yue, and Na'er had collapsed.

After Ji Fengyu’s eight-hour concert, Yun Ming and Mu Ye decided to stay close to protect him, and the group celebrated with a meal that nearly bankrupted Zhen Hua. Gu Yue, moved by “Guardianship,” resolved to visit Ji Fengyu alone that night to talk about the song and her secrets.

• The audience gave Ji Fengyu a thunderous ovation after “Guardianship,” and he continued his concert while the Dragon Clan Squad remained incapacitated.
• Ji Fengyu performed for eight hours, then Yun Ming praised his stamina and asked whether he would really give up two sets of Four-Word Battle Armor.
• Yun Ming and Mu Ye offered to stay with Ji Fengyu to protect him, and Ya Li teased Mu Ye for doubting their abilities.
• Mu Ye cooked a feast at Zhen Hua’s expense, and Ji Fengyu, Lan Xuanyu, Tang Wulin, and Na'er ate enough premium ingredients to leave Zhen Hua stunned.
• Gu Yue watched Ji Fengyu eat, remembered the impact of “Guardianship,” and decided to visit him alone that night.

Gu Yue visited Ji Fengyu late at night to ask about the song Guardianship, while Di Tian reconsidered whether Gu Yue alone was essential to the Dragon Clan. Ji Fengyu told Gu Yue the lyrics had been inspired by her and said he felt they were lovers reunited across many lifetimes.

• Gu Yue asked Di Tian to help her sneak into Ji Fengyu’s room, but he said the powerful guards made it impossible.
• Di Tian urged Gu Yue to approach Ji Fengyu openly and decided that the Matriarch, rather than any single lord, was the Dragon Clan’s true priority.
• Gu Yue knocked on Ji Fengyu’s door and asked to come in to talk about Guardianship.
• Yun Ming objected to Gu Yue’s late-night visit, but Ya Li stopped him from interfering, while Mu Ye privately believed Ji Fengyu would not waver.
• Ji Fengyu welcomed Gu Yue into his room, told her she had inspired the song, and said he felt they had been lovers reunited across ten thousand lifetimes.

Gu Yue told Ji Fengyu that they had been lovers in a past life, but he tactfully rejected her and suggested they revisit romance at Sea God's Fate. Na'er woke after Yun Ming struck her with Soul Power and heard the plan, leaving her intent on remembering the festival.

• Ji Fengyu said his sense of familiarity with Gu Yue might come from their bloodlines, but Gu Yue insisted it could be a bond from a past life.
• Gu Yue claimed that she and Ji Fengyu had been lovers in a past life and that she had crossed ten thousand lifetimes to find him.
• Yun Ming grew angry at Gu Yue's confession and struck the sleeping Na'er awake, prompting her to mistake Gu Yue's aura for a sneak attack.
• Ji Fengyu rejected Gu Yue's confession and suggested they consider romance later, at Sea God's Fate.
• Gu Yue agreed to wait for Sea God's Fate and teleported away, while Na'er paused outside Ji Fengyu's door before knocking.
