After four of Shrek's Senior Elders died, rival factions weighed whether to attack Shrek Academy or join the campaign against the Extreme North. Ling Xiao admitted that Thunder Spirit had leaked the factions' information, but refused to answer Ye Xishui's questions, provoking Long Xiaoyao to unleash his aura.

Ling Xiao battled Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao in Star Luo City, then provoked them before escaping with the Ice and Snow Emperors. He planned to draw Mu En and the Holy Spirit Cult toward the Far North so Di Tian could seize the Golden Ancient Tree in the Great Star Dou Forest.

After Long Xiaoyao’s Darkness Domain devastated the spectators, Ye Xishui held the factions’ younger members hostage and ordered them to send most of their Titled Douluo to the Far North. Meanwhile, Ling Xiao, Snow Empress, and Ice Empress entered the Great Star Dou Forest’s core area to meet Di Tian, likely drawing the attention of the hidden Gu Yuena.

• Mu En entered the resting area and saw the students in a miserable state.

Mu En arranged for Shrek’s defense while the Sun-Moon Empire and Holy Spirit Cult secretly prepared attacks against the weakened academy. As nearly thirty Titled Douluo gathered in Star Luo City for the expedition to the Extreme North, Ye Xishui promised Mu En that the Holy Spirit Cult would not attack Shrek, unaware that Zhongli Wu had already sent forces there.

• Ye Xishui considered how to preserve the Holy Spirit Cult’s legacy, and Long Xiaoyao and Mu En rushed back to her side.

Kong Deming asked Ling Xiao to let the Sun-Moon Empire forces leave the Far North, but Ling Xiao refused. Kong Deming then proposed joining forces with Ye Xishui, who agreed for reasons she kept secret.

• After the Far North’s Soul Beasts returned to Ling Xiao, Kong Deming apologized on behalf of the Sun-Moon Empire and asked to withdraw its people.
• Kong Deming argued that Ye Xishui had demanded the campaign, that the Empire had killed no Soul Beasts, and that refusal would force them to fight to the death.

• Kong Deming asked Ye Xishui to join forces against the Far North, and Ye Xishui agreed despite Zhongli Wu’s shock.
