The Star Luo Emperor approved the transfer and, stunned by Dai Mobai's claim that the feat could be replicated, demanded to know how.

• Dai Mobai met the Star Luo Emperor, who questioned whether the Crown Prince was plotting rebellion after Chen Hu and more than forty White Tiger Guards petitioned to join the East Palace.
• Dai Mobai argued that the guards would become his people eventually, and the Star Luo Emperor dropped his show of anger and approved their transfer.

• Dai Mobai said it could, and the Star Luo Emperor rose abruptly and demanded to know how.

Dai Mobai proposed using Whale Rubber’s ability to increase the Soul Ring years Soul Masters could absorb to fund the Star Luo Empire’s own subsidy program and win public support. Convinced by Dai Mobai’s Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, the Star Luo Emperor agreed and turned his attention to conquering Heaven Dou Empire.

• Dai Mobai explained that commoners often joined Spirit Hall because it earned the credit for awakening martial souls and distributing subsidies funded by the empires.

Dai Mobai’s Ten Thousand Year fourth Soul Ring sparked continent-wide disbelief, then became credible after the Star Luo Emperor’s purge and the revelation that Whale Rubber had helped him absorb it. With the rare Whale Rubber bought up, the factions watched the Star Luo Empire as the Emperor prepared another announcement.

• Dai Mobai told Li Yue to inform the Star Luo Emperor that they could proceed to the next step after Yu Xiaogang dismissed the Soul Ring report as a publicity stunt.
• The Star Luo Emperor investigated his court and secretly executed people, prompting Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong to reconsider the report’s credibility.
• Xue Qinghe shed her disguise and worried that Dai Mobai’s achievement might disrupt her plans.
• As the report became widely accepted, Yu Xiaogang disappeared without addressing his earlier claim.
• News revealed that Dai Mobai had consumed Whale Rubber to strengthen his body, and factions found that Whale Rubber over a hundred years old had been bought up.
• The Star Luo Emperor released another major announcement a month later, watched by the continent’s factions.

Dai Mobai and the Star Luo Emperor turned Whale Rubber sales and Spirit Hall’s withdrawal from Martial Soul Awakening into a wave of prosperity and migration to the Star Luo Empire. Three months later, the Heaven Dou Empire sent envoys to protest, and Star Luo responded bluntly.

• Whale Rubber sales began at sharply increased prices, bringing crowds of buyers and enormous revenue to the Star Luo Empire.
• Miles demanded free Whale Rubber from the Star Luo Emperor and threatened to end Spirit Hall’s awakening ceremonies; the emperor gladly agreed.
• Miles ordered Spirit Hall to stop providing free Martial Soul Awakening, so the Star Luo Empire took over awakenings and doubled Soul Master stipends.
• Soul Masters and clans from Heaven Dou and elsewhere migrated to Star Luo, where population and registered Soul Master numbers surged.
• The Star Luo Empire established awakening stations across its territory and brought stipend distribution under imperial control.
• The Heaven Dou Empire sent envoys accusing Star Luo of disrupting the Soul Master World, and Star Luo gave a blunt response.

After Star Luo humiliates Heaven Dou’s envoy, Xue Ye tries to compete in the Whale Rubber trade but loses money and market share. Heaven Dou’s alliance with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and Spirit Hall clashes with Sea God Island, and the continent settles into three years of peace.

• The Star Luo Emperor praised Dai Mobai for using money to strengthen the empire, while Heaven Dou’s envoy returned after being dismissed and fainting.
• Xue Qinghe advised Xue Ye to buy Whale Rubber, so Prince Xue Xing and Xue Beng purchased the poor-quality stock left in Vast Sea City and sold it cheaply.
• The Star Luo Empire announced that only Whale Rubber aged at least a hundred years improved a Soul Master’s constitution, leaving Heaven Dou with unsold goods and causing Xue Ye to spit blood and collapse.
• Heaven Dou allied with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and Spirit Hall to hunt whale Soul Beasts, but their efforts provoked Sea God Island and led to a deep-sea battle.
• After Qian Daoliu intervened, the conflict ended and the three allies’ combined market share fell to thirty percent; the continent then enjoyed three years of peace.

Dai Mobai reached level fifty after three years of cultivation and left with Li Yue for the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for a Soul Ring. Meanwhile, the Star Luo Emperor began the plan by marking Nuoding City on the map and declaring that the continent's balance of power would change.

• Dai Mobai broke through to level fifty and told Li Yue to prepare to leave for the Star Dou Great Forest.
• Dai Mobai told Chen Hu to inform the Star Luo Emperor that he was going to hunt for a Soul Ring and that the plan could begin.
• Dai Mobai and Li Yue left the palace discreetly, then flew toward the Star Dou Great Forest.
• Chen Hu reported Dai Mobai's words to the Star Luo Emperor, who marked Nuoding City on the map and announced that the balance of power was about to change.

Dai Mobai and Li Yue hunted a forty-thousand-year White-Eyed Demon Tiger King, and Dai Mobai absorbed its soul ring to advance beyond level fifty. After night fell, he used his fifth soul skill on the corpse, leaving Li Yue to witness the aftermath of its immense blast.

• Dai Mobai used his Blood Prison Demon Tiger martial soul to frighten the White-Eyed Demon Tiger King, then killed it with Li Yue’s help and absorbed its blood energy.
• Dai Mobai absorbed the White-Eyed Demon Tiger King’s ten-thousand-year soul ring while Li Yue guarded him, and his Soul Power rose by three levels.
• Dai Mobai decided that he and Li Yue would spend the night in the forest, then had her retreat a hundred meters from the corpse.
• Dai Mobai unleashed his fifth soul skill, Holy Tiger Roaring Heaven Strike, and its golden tiger phantom detonated against the corpse, sending a shockwave toward Li Yue.

Dai Mobai killed the White-Eyed Demon Tiger King with a devastating strike, then spent the night with Li Yue in one tent. The next morning, he revealed that their journey was not over and led her out of the Star Dou Great Forest to search for a treasure older than the tiger king.

• Dai Mobai destroyed the White-Eyed Demon Tiger King, and Li Yue admitted his attack could kill her if she took it head-on.
• Dai Mobai pulled Li Yue into his tent instead of letting her set up a separate one.
• The next morning, Dai Mobai cooked Soft Bone Rabbits, and Li Yue shyly ate with him.
• Li Yue asked whether they were returning after obtaining the soul ring, but Dai Mobai said he had another reason for the trip: treasure hunting.
• Dai Mobai led Li Yue out of the Star Dou Great Forest toward something older than the White-Eyed Demon Tiger King.

Dai Mobai led Li Yue from the Star Luo Empire to a hidden valley near Holy Soul Village and showed her a secret chamber behind its waterfall. After she dismissed a rare Blue Silver Grass as the treasure, Dai Mobai revealed a concealed lead box and left its contents unknown.

• Dai Mobai took Li Yue across the border to Nuoding City and then south to Holy Soul Village.
• Dai Mobai and Li Yue flew through the mountains until they found a waterfall hidden in a valley.
• Dai Mobai broke through a cliff wall behind the waterfall and led Li Yue into a concealed chamber.
• Li Yue saw an unusual Blue Silver Grass stalk but doubted it was the treasure.
• Dai Mobai opened a hidden compartment and caught the blackened lead box that fell from it.
