• Ye Xuan directed Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo to make a commotion and trap the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm when it emerged.

By afternoon, the team had eliminated dozens of students and several Soul Beasts, and Xiao Wu began attacking a rival group after Yan drew their fire.

• Ye Xuan and Hu Liena used Tian Meng’s Spirit Detection and Vision Sharing to avoid a thousand-year Datura Snake and reach the meeting point safely.
