Wang Lanfang and Wang Mingxu visited Shrek Academy to observe its teaching and training, while Flender wondered whether they were conducting an inspection for Elemental Academy. After they toured the grounds and met Yu Xiaogang, Flender concluded that the two young visitors were genuine teachers whose strength and concealed soul power made them difficult to assess.

• Flender said he had checked their credentials and could not detect their soul power, yet they had resisted his pressure, so he believed they were genuine and likely carried a powerful treasure.

Flender introduced Shrek Team’s lineup for the Spirit Master Tournament, and Wang Mingxu described Elemental Academy’s much stronger roster. Yu Xiaogang protested that the competition was unfair, then confronted how the Douluo Federation’s laws had reduced the Upper Three Sects; Flender urged him to preserve the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan through its descendants.

Tang San returned to Douluo Continent and offered Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing divine power to aid their cultivation, but learned that Wang Xiaofei’s Douluo Federation dominated the Soul Master World and possessed powerful Soul Core research. He sought advice from Yu Xiaogang, only to find his former teacher aged and unfamiliar with Soul Cores, leaving Tang San without answers about the Federation’s advances.

Meanwhile, Wang Lanfang and Wang Mingxu arrived in Phoenix City, admired its divine landmarks, and sought advice from Huo Tianchen but could not meet him.

• Wang Xiaofei reasoned that life and destruction depended on each other and suspected the Golden Ancient Tree held the key to those powers.
• Wang Xiaofei considered how Ah Yin and the Golden Ancient Tree had become part of Tang San's family's plans, then left Elemental Academy.
