Chapter Summaries

Dugu Feng refined the Cold Poison of the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass into his External Soul Bone while cultivating at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. After Dugu Bo returned and sent him away, Dugu Feng slipped a Jade Dragon Serpent into Dugu Yan’s cave, eyeing a chance to gain leverage over Dugu Bo.

• Dugu Feng used his Scorpion Pincer External Soul Bone to refine Cold Poison from the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, spending more than half his Spirit Power to subdue it.
• Dugu Feng continued cultivating until Dugu Bo returned and mocked him for risking his life in the valley.
• Dugu Bo noticed that medicinal herbs were missing, and Dugu Feng explained that Dugu Shuo had taken some for the clan.
• Dugu Bo sent Dugu Feng away so he could refine medicine for Dugu Yan, who was waiting in his cave with her new Soul Bone.
• Dugu Feng rode to Dugu Bo’s cave and sent a concealed Jade Dragon Serpent inside, hoping to use Dugu Yan to control Dugu Bo.

Dugu Feng secretly poisoned Dugu Yan so he could teach her Jade Phosphor Twelve Fingers and study the differences between their martial soul branches. After more than half a year of cultivation, he reached thirteen years old and waited at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for something his scout had found.

• Dugu Feng used the Jade Dragon Serpent to put Dugu Yan unconscious and slip the Pill Bead into her mouth.
• Dugu Yan accepted Dugu Feng's instruction in Jade Phosphor Twelve Fingers, and he studied how her martial soul possession differed from his own.
• Dugu Bo warned Dugu Feng to stay away from Dugu Yan, and Dugu Feng left to resume cultivating.
• Dugu Feng spent more than half a year advancing his Soul Power and refining Cold Poison, while his physical strength surpassed that of some Soul Sage experts.
• At thirteen, Dugu Feng waited at the mountaintop for a small green dot that flew toward him, saying his scout had finally found it.

Dugu Feng found and killed a fifteen-thousand-year Vermilion-Eyed Ice Toad to obtain his Fourth Soul Ring, then began absorbing it at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. The ring’s immense power was stabilizing inside him with help from his three Soul Bones as he entered a state of comprehension.

• The Jade Dragon Serpents told Dugu Feng they had found a Soul Beast approaching fifteen thousand years old, and he rode with them to its marsh habitat.
• The Jade Dragon Serpents restrained the Vermilion-Eyed Ice Toad while Dugu Feng delivered the fatal blow with his Eight Spider Lances.
• Dugu Feng and the Jade Dragon Serpents brought the Vermilion-Eyed Ice Toad to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, where its Ten Thousand Year Spirit Ring appeared.
• Dugu Feng began absorbing the Spirit Ring, and its violent energy drove him several meters across the ground.
• Dugu Feng’s Eight Spider Lances, Scorpion Pincers, and Right Leg Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone helped stabilize and channel the Spirit Ring energy as it strengthened his body.

Dugu Feng completed his fourth Spirit Ring absorption, reached Soul Power Level Forty-Three, and endured the evolution of his toxins into Four-Color Mixed Poison. He tested his new Fourth Soul Skill, Ice-Fire Poison Erosion, and recognized that it could deepen his understanding of Cold Poison and Fire Poison.

• Dugu Feng absorbed the fifteen-thousand-year Vermilion-Eyed Ice Toad Spirit Ring and advanced to Soul Ancestor at Level Forty-Three.
• Dugu Feng merged his existing mixed poison with the Vermilion-Eyed Ice Toad's Cold Poison and endured two days of painful changes as his body adapted.
• Dugu Feng awoke, noticed his improved control over Cold Poison, and activated Martial Soul Possession to inspect his new black Spirit Ring.
• Dugu Feng tested his Fourth Soul Skill, Ice-Fire Poison Erosion, and discovered that its invisible poison could penetrate the mountain until it struck a tree.
• Dugu Feng concluded that Ice-Fire Poison Erosion matched his circumstances and could help him comprehend Cold Poison and Fire Poison.

Dugu Feng completed his cultivation at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and set out with Old Snake for the Six Great Families’ council in Suotuo City. There, Yu Yuanzhen questioned Yu Xiaogang about Tang San and suspected that he had Twin Martial Souls.

• Old Snake arrived at the valley and told Dugu Feng that the Six Great Families’ six-year council was about to begin, so they flew toward the Dugu Family together.
• Dugu Feng discussed the factions’ quiet activity with Old Snake and considered how the Dugu Family should prepare for Bibi Dong’s future Soul Hunting Operation.
• Dugu Feng learned that Little Snake had joined Canghui Academy as a Soul Ancestor, then traveled with the convoy to Suotuo City alongside Ge Long, Ge Ying, and Yu Luo Mian.
• Yu Yuanzhen met Yu Xiaogang privately and asked about Tang San, whose unusual Blue Silver Grass and surname suggested a connection to Tang Hao.
• Yu Xiaogang apologized after mistakenly suspecting that Yu Yuanzhen had attacked Tang San, and Yu Yuanzhen wondered whether Tang San had Twin Martial Souls.

Yu Yuanzhen learned that Tang San had Twin Martial Souls and decided to keep the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan neutral while benefiting from both the Clear Sky Sect and Spirit Hall. At Shrek Academy, Ning Rongrong asked for leave to visit Dugu Feng, and Flender approved while warning the others to stay away from Suotuo City.

• Yu Xiaogang told Yu Yuanzhen that Clear Sky Douluo was protecting Tang San near Suotuo City, and Yu Yuanzhen warned his son about the danger of the Clear Sky Sect drawing Spirit Hall's attention.
• Yu Yuanzhen said the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan would move closer to Spirit Hall and play both sides, while Yu Xiaogang promised that Tang San would become an ally to the clan.
• After Yu Xiaogang left, Yu Yuanzhen considered using his son's ties to Bibi Dong and the Clear Sky Sect to keep profiting from both sides.
• Ning Rongrong asked Flender for at least three days of leave to visit Dugu Feng, and Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing revealed her interest in him.
• Flender approved Ning Rongrong's leave and told Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun to avoid Suotuo City, but Ma Hongjun challenged the warning.

Ning Rongrong went to Suotuo City to reunite with Dugu Feng and admitted she had chosen him as her partner despite the Dugu Family’s martial soul flaw. They discussed their future positions and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, leaving Dugu Feng wary that her protectors might punish him for accepting her offer.

• Flender refused to let Ma Hongjun, Dai Mubai, or Yu Xiaogang interfere with Ning Rongrong’s plans, and she left Shrek Academy for Suotuo City.
• Ning Rongrong recalled falling for Dugu Feng, learning about the Dugu Family’s martial soul flaw, and deciding she would not give him up.
• Ning Rongrong reached the Great Soul Arena, where Dugu Feng opened his room’s door before she could knock.
• Ning Rongrong complained that Dugu Feng had not sought her out, and he praised her appearance before embracing her.
• Ning Rongrong told Dugu Feng she had chosen him as her partner and offered the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect as her dowry.
• Dugu Feng joked that Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo might attack him if he accepted.

Dugu Feng exposed Bone Douluo’s attempt to secretly watch him and Ning Rongrong, then joined them to meet Tang Hao. Tang Hao heard how Dugu Feng had won his Hundred Victories in Slaughter City and praised his skill with poison.

• Dugu Feng used Four-Color Mixed Poison to block Spiritual Power detection, prompting Bone Douluo to reveal himself outside Ning Rongrong’s window.
• Bone Douluo invited Dugu Feng and Ning Rongrong to meet Tang Hao, and Ning Rongrong agreed so Dugu Feng could learn about cultivating Divine Slaughter's Domain.
• Bone Douluo brought them to a teahouse, where Tang Hao arrived and recognized Dugu Feng as an exceptionally young possessor of Divine Slaughter's Domain.
• Dugu Feng explained that he had used Jade Phosphor Scarlet Poison to incite over a thousand fugitives to kill experts with over fifty victories, helping him achieve Hundred Victories.
• Bone Douluo praised Dugu Feng’s mastery of poison and compared him to his father.

Tang Hao explained how Dugu Feng could cultivate Divine Slaughter's Domain as another Martial Soul, while secretly hoping the advice would hinder his Soul Power growth. After Tang Hao left, Dugu Feng and Ning Rongrong explored Suotuo City, and Dugu Feng gave her another Pill Bead.

• Ning Rongrong listened as Dugu Feng described Slaughter City and felt inspired to train harder.
• Bone Douluo asked Tang Hao about Divine Slaughter's Domain, and Tang Hao advised Dugu Feng to cultivate its killing intent as another Martial Soul and use it to create attacks.
• Tang Hao secretly hoped Dugu Feng would focus on killing intent and neglect his Soul Power cultivation, while Dugu Feng listened carefully and suspected his motives.
• Tang Hao spent half an hour explaining his experience before leaving, and Bone Douluo encouraged Dugu Feng to overcome the Dugu Family's Martial Soul Defect.
• Ning Rongrong sent Bone Douluo away and went shopping with Dugu Feng in Suotuo City, where Dugu Feng gave her the Pill Bead that had originally been inside his body.

Ning Rongrong left to cultivate after comparing herself with Dugu Feng, while Zhu Zhuyun stunned the Six Great Families with her level and prepared to face Dugu Feng in the tournament’s final clash. The chapter ended as Zhu Zhuyun began her attack, vowing to avenge Zhu Zhuqing.

• Ning Rongrong learned that Dugu Feng had reached Level Forty-Three, felt discouraged by their gap, and left to cultivate.
• Zhu Zhuyun revealed she had reached Level Forty-Nine, while Dugu Feng entered the Soul Ancestor battles and won four matches without showing his spirit rings.
• Zhu Zhuyun told Zhu Zhuqing she intended to defeat Dugu Feng and become the continent’s greatest young soul master.
• Dugu Feng and Zhu Zhuyun met for their final match as Zhu Zhuqing watched, and Zhu Zhuyun vowed to avenge her younger sister.

Zhu Zhuyun unleashed her powerful Nether Spring Fall and a rapid barrage of close-range attacks against Dugu Feng, but he absorbed the skill’s corrosive power and drained her strength. Dugu Feng defeated her without revealing his Spirit Rings, leaving the arena stunned.

• Zhu Zhuyun used Nether Spring Fall to cover Dugu Feng in corrosive Soul Power while she vanished and closed in for a close-range assault.
• Zhu Zhuyun struck from multiple directions with Hell Stab, Nether White Claw, and Nether Slash, but her Soul Power and Spiritual Power began rapidly draining away.
• Dugu Feng revealed that Nether Spring Fall had no effect on him, as his External Soul Bone absorbed its corrosive force.
• Dugu Feng used Divine Slaughter's Domain to halt Zhu Zhuyun's attacks and continued draining her strength.
• Dugu Feng stepped back, and Zhu Zhuyun collapsed after exhausting her Soul Power, while the audience watched in stunned silence.

After losing to Dugu Feng, Zhu Zhuyun discovered he had secretly altered her physique and could control her through a Pill Bead embedded in her body. He offered to preserve her status as Star Luo’s greatest genius in exchange for serving him, and she left conflicted by his words.

• Zhu Zhuqing helped her defeated sister, Zhu Zhuyun, leave the arena, then returned to the academy when Zhu Zhuyun asked to be alone.
• Zhu Zhuyun recovered her Soul Power and wondered how Dugu Feng had made her lose it during their match.
• Dugu Feng summoned Zhu Zhuyun to his room and revealed that the Pill Bead he had placed inside her six years earlier had transformed her into a genius and let him control her Soul Power and poison her.
• Zhu Zhuyun tried to charm Dugu Feng, but he offered to keep her the Star Luo Empire’s number one genius if she served him that night.
• Dugu Feng dismissed Zhu Zhuyun, who left haunted by his claim that ambition and vanity could require her to sell herself.

Zhu Zhuyun slept with Dugu Feng to obtain a Pill Bead, then discovered he had placed it inside her body and could control it. Dugu Feng reviewed the Pill Beads’ rapid growth as the Six Great Families agreed to a high-stakes wager on two rising teams in the Great Soul Arena.

• Zhu Zhuyun offered herself to Dugu Feng, who pulled her into his arms and spent the night with her.
• The next morning, Dugu Feng revealed that the Pill Bead was inside Zhu Zhuyun, and he demonstrated his control over it by making it release heat through her body.
• Zhu Zhuyun accepted the bead’s power but secretly hoped to reclaim it after reaching a higher cultivation realm, while doubting she could outgrow Dugu Feng.
• Dugu Feng calculated that the eight Pill Beads had reached thirty-five points of energy after consuming nearly all of the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent’s Inner Core and the Blue Silver Emperor’s Grass Seed.
• After the Six Great Families finalized their profit shares, Yu Luo Mian proposed that each faction wager ten percent of its Great Soul Arena profits for six years on the outcome of two rising teams’ clash.

Dugu Feng weighed the odds and secretly bet on the Shrek Team to win the high-stakes match against the Imperial Fighting Team. The two teams entered the arena and charged at each other as the battle began.

• The gathered families compared the teams’ Soul Power Levels and judged the Imperial Fighting Team to have the advantage, though Ning Rongrong’s support could help Shrek close the gap.
• Dugu Feng used the Jade Dragon Serpent to watch the betting and learned that the Ge Family, Zhu Family, Dai Family, and Holy Dragon Sect had backed the Imperial Fighting Team.
• Seeking a larger share of the Great Soul Arena’s profits, Dugu Feng bet on Shrek and considered how the match might stir up grudges among the major powers.
• On the day of the duel, the Imperial Fighting Team and Shrek Team entered the Main Soul Duel Arena and faced off under the gaze of the gathered nobles and gamblers.
• The teams released their soul power and rushed toward the center of the arena when the referee started the battle.

Tang San’s control created an opening for the Shrek Seven Devils to surround Yu Tianheng, but Dugu Yan disrupted their attack and the fight narrowed to a clash between Yu Tianheng and Dai Mubai. Tang San and Ma Hongjun helped Shrek recover from the ensuing pressure, and the two teams regrouped for another exchange.

• Tang San used Blue Silver Grass and his Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to coordinate a four-sided attack on Yu Tianheng.
• Yu Tianheng burned through Tang San’s bindings and focused his Thunderbolt attack on Dai Mubai, whose White Tiger Intense Light Wave met it head-on with Ning Rongrong’s enhancement.
• Dugu Yan used Green Phosphorus Finger Force to drive Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ma Hongjun away, leaving Dai Mubai exposed to Yu Tianheng’s renewed attack.
• Tang San’s Parasite slowed Yu Tianheng long enough for Dai Mubai to eat a Recovery Sausage, while Ye Lingling healed Yu Tianheng.
• Dugu Yan spread Jade Phosphor Purple Poison, but Tang San used Ma Hongjun’s fire and strong liquor to break it.
• Shi Mo and Shi Mo charged forward as both teams regrouped on opposite halves of the arena.

Zhu Zhuqing’s sudden burst of power wounded Osler and Shi Mo, while Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan defeated Dai Mubai. Dugu Feng secretly caused the fighters’ improved abilities and planned to deepen the grudge between them.

• Ning Rongrong enhanced Zhu Zhuqing, who overwhelmed Osler with her attacks and forced him to retreat despite Ye Lingling’s healing.
• Zhu Zhuqing exploited Tang San’s disruption of the Shi Brothers’ shields and Xiao Wu’s Charm to wound Shi Mo before he could defend himself.
• Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan attacked Dai Mubai, whose poison and lightning injuries left him unable to continue fighting.
• Oscar treated Dai Mubai, and Yu Tianheng stopped attacking after recognizing him as the Star Luo Empire’s prince.
• Dugu Feng revealed that he had used the Pill Bead to boost Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan, and he planned to use the battle to make the teams hold grudges.

Yu Tianheng injured Xiao Wu, driving Tang San to retaliate with poisoned Blue Silver Grass during the Soul Arena battle. Ning Rongrong boosted Tang San as Yu Tianheng struggled against the toxins, leaving the fight unresolved.

• Yu Tianheng defeated Dai Mubai and saw that Shi Mo and Osler had suffered severe injuries.
• Yu Tianheng struck Xiao Wu with his Thunderbolt skill, breaking her shoulder and arm, and Tang San carried her to Ning Rongrong and Oscar for help.
• Tang San charged Yu Tianheng, used Shi Mo as a shield, then bound Yu Tianheng with Blue Silver Grass carrying deadly poison.
• Yu Tianheng was poisoned but tried to purge the toxins with his lightning, while Ning Rongrong enhanced Tang San.

Tang San’s poison fatally overwhelmed Yu Tianheng during the Soul Arena battle, and Yu Tianheng died despite Tang San’s attempt to detoxify him. Yu Luo Mian moved to kill Tang San, but Flender stepped in and invoked the Soul Arena’s rules against revenge.

• Ning Rongrong used her remaining Soul Power to greatly amplify Tang San, who trapped Yu Tianheng with Spider Web Restraint.
• Yu Tianheng shattered the restraint and struck Tang San, but then collapsed as the poison spread through his body.
• Qin Ming surrendered the match, but Tang San refused to treat Yu Tianheng until Ye Lingling healed Xiao Wu.
• Yu Luo Mian arrived and demanded that Tang San detoxify Yu Tianheng, but Tang San discovered the poison had reached Yu Tianheng’s heart and could not be removed.
• Yu Tianheng died before Dugu Shuo could reach him, and Yu Luo Mian vowed to kill Tang San.
• Flender shielded Tang San and reminded Yu Luo Mian that Soul Arena rules forbade revenge over deaths in the arena.

Yu Luo Mian blamed Tang San for Yu Tianheng’s death and tried to kill him, while Yu Xiaogang and Flender failed to stop him. Tang Hao appeared just in time to catch the lightning attack, and Tang San learned that his blacksmith father was a powerful expert.

• Yu Xiaogang grieved over Yu Tianheng’s death and tried to protect Tang San from Yu Luo Mian.
• Yu Luo Mian struck Yu Xiaogang aside and prepared to kill Tang San as the assembled powers let him act.
• Dugu Feng revealed that he had secretly added poison to Dugu Yan, worsening the feud between the Clear Sky Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
• Yu Luo Mian launched a Lightning Arrow at Tang San, and Flender and Zhao Wuji rushed to shield him.
• Tang Hao appeared, caught the lightning, and told Yu Luo Mian not to harm his son.
• Tang San recognized his father and rejoiced, while Yu Luo Mian insisted that Tang San still had to answer for killing Yu Tianheng.

Tang Hao defended Tang San after Yu Tianheng’s death and took Xiao Wu away for treatment, while Yu Luo Mian left vowing that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan deserved an explanation. The other factions learned who had won the gambling match, and the recovered poison appeared to link Tang San to Yu Tianheng’s death.

• Tang Hao rejected Yu Luo Mian’s accusation, told him to take the matter to Yu Yuanzhen, and sent Tang San to treat Xiao Wu.
• Tang Hao thanked Yu Xiaogang, Flender, and Zhao Wuji for guiding Tang San, while Yu Luo Mian left the Soul Arena without responding to Yu Xiaogang.
• Supervisor Ao announced that the Four Element Alliance and the Dugu Family had won the Six-Party Secret Bet and would split forty percent of the losing factions’ Great Soul Arena interests.
• Dugu Feng explained that Ning Rongrong had persuaded him to bet on the Shrek Team, deflecting suspicion that the Dugu Family had manipulated the match.
• Old Snake reported that the collected poison came from a Man Faced Demon Spider, and Dugu Feng was satisfied that it would implicate Tang San.
