Di Tian selected seven soul bones for Gu Yue’s plan and traveled to Eastsea City to deliver them. Tang Li sensed his arrival and followed Gu Yue into her home, where Di Tian was waiting.
Tang Li accepted the soul bones Gu Yue had promised and revealed to Di Tian that he could lift the Soul Beast Clan’s restriction on godhood. At the Star Dou Great Forest’s Tribulation Grounds, Tang Li began refining Di Tian with the Demon-Sealing Pot, preparing to lift the restriction and draw a heavenly tribulation.
Tang Li removed the Dragon God's restriction from Di Tian and released him to face his godhood tribulation. Di Tian crushed the heavenly and divine thunder and began ascending, while Gu Yue shielded Tang Li and protected the Star Dou Great Forest.
After Di Tian survived the godhood tribulation and received the plane’s blessing, the faction leaders weighed the danger he posed and reconsidered their policies toward the Star Dou Great Forest. Qiangu Dongfeng ordered his fortress to withdraw and restore the ecology before the other factions acted.
Yun Ming learned that Di Tian had survived his million-year tribulation and pushed the Federation to restore part of the Star Dou Great Forest to keep him in check. After Di Tian thanked Tang Li and sent him home, he advised Gu Yue to force her plan forward.
Gu Yue gave up on Di Tian’s courtship advice and decided to win Tang Li over through patience. Back in Eastsea City, Tang Li examined seven rare soul bones from Gu Yue and found a hundred-thousand-year Golden-Eyed White Ape skull that could grant the Clone skill.
Tang Li refined Soul Bones to strengthen the Demon-Sealing Pot, studied Soul Tools, and secretly added processed spiritual treasures to his family’s meals. On his way to deliver dinner to Tang Ziran, he noticed that his reflection was glowing with golden Qi Luck and wondered whether his luck had reproduced itself.
Tang Li asked Elder Ling why his Qi Luck was increasing, and learned it came from the universe rather than the people around him. After Tang Li began testing Soul Tools in his family’s Workshop, Elder Ling suggested he use the Qi Luck to make a new Auspicious Beast.
Tang Li received the Classic of Mountains and Seas from Elder Ling, who explained that it could create recorded beings with Tang Li’s Fourth Soul Skill and revealed how to control qi luck. Meanwhile, Tang Ziran watched Tang Li through the Workshop’s surveillance and realized his son had a powerful master, then struggled with whether to let him pursue revenge for Tang Ziran’s murdered mother.
Tang Li used the Classic of Mountains and Seas to obtain a Three-Eyed Golden Lion template and brought it to Gu Yue, hoping to help revive the Soul Beast Clan. He created a golden cub bearing qi luck, leaving Gu Yue and Bi Ji looking at the newborn Auspicious Beast with renewed hope.
Bi Ji cared for the newly created Three-Eyed Golden Lion while Gu Yue discovered that its dazzling Qi Luck came from Tang Li, whose own Qi Luck was vast beyond belief. Tang Li returned home to sleep, but a golden-furred monkey hidden in a Soul Bone was discovered in his Spirit Sea.
Tang Li captured and refined the Golden-Eyed White Ape, then put it to work as his assistant in Soul Tool research. After a month in the laboratory, Tang Li finished a special Soul Cannon Shell and learned that his vacation had ended and he needed to return to school.
At the start of the new semester, Tang Li avoided a clash between Tang Wulin and Gu Yue and let Xie Xie try his mecha exoskeleton. Wu Zhangkong accepted Xu Xiaoyan into Class Zero, while Long Hengxu arranged for the class to compete in the Skysea Alliance Grand Competition.
Tang Li rescued Xie Xie from a malfunctioning exoskeleton and helped welcome new Class Zero member Xu Xiaoyan. Xu Xiaoyan then remarked that Tang Wulin and Tang Li looked nothing alike, leaving Tang Wulin startled.
Tang Wulin began to wonder whether she was adopted after Xu Xiaoyan noticed that she looked unlike her family, while Tang Li’s Spiritual Power surged ahead of Class Zero’s new semester tests. The chapter ended with Wu Zhangkong taking the class to the Combat Training Building for practical combat testing.
Tang Li used his newly gained Clone Soul Skill to defeat all six members of Class Zero in their spar. Wu Zhangkong and Gu Yue identified the clone’s Golden-Eyed White Ape origin as Tang Li’s classmates recovered from the fight.
Tang Li explained his clone Soul Skill before challenging Wu Zhangkong, who tested him in a duel on the Combat Training Building’s Martial Arts Platform. As Tang Li adapted to Wu Zhangkong’s swordsmanship and discovered his own path, he unleashed a powerful new slash that engulfed his teacher.
Tang Li’s battle with Wu Zhangkong escalated as Tang Li’s saber Momentum overwhelmed his teacher and culminated in a strike that drew on the power of heaven and earth. Wu Zhangkong survived by releasing his Martial Soul Avatar, and Tang Li named his saber Tiger Soul and his finishing move Hail.
Eastsea Academy offered Tang Li major rewards to win the youth events at the Skysea Alliance Grand Competition, and he confidently accepted the challenge. Na'er called him and revealed that she was going to Skysea City for the competition, asking whether he would come.
Tang Li spoke with Na'er, then learned that Gu Yue, Tang Wulin, and Xu Xiaoyan had eavesdropped on their call. Na'er learned that her master wanted to meet Tang Li during the All-Federation Tournament, while Tang Li's Class Zero prepared to travel to the tournament and the Advanced Division considered adding him to its team.
Tang Li and the Eastsea Academy students gathered to depart for the Skysea Alliance Grand Competition, where he exchanged teasing banter with Gu Yue before Tang Wulin broke up their scuffle. As their bus sped along the coast, Tang Li and Tang Wulin remembered the days they had spent collecting seashells with Na’er.
Tang Li reunited with Na'er at a restaurant, where her affection for him and enormous appetite left Gu Yue and Xie Xie exasperated. The next day at Tianhai Stadium, Xie Xie spotted Na'er with Shrek Academy and learned that Tang Li's little sister was one of its students.
