• Elder Huoyun arranged six stones into a formation and called the first child forward to begin.

Youquan underwent her delayed Martial Soul Awakening and manifested an unusual stone that resonated with the Fennel Art, while her test revealed Innate Full Soul Power. She learned that this world relied on meditation rather than cultivation arts or medicinal pills, leaving her to wonder whether Alchemy could help improve others’ cultivation.

• Youquan fled toward the Back Mountain after Nanny sacrificed herself, but Elder Huoyun and his group blocked her escape.
• Cornered at the cliff by Huo Kun, Youquan vowed to avenge her parents, Nanny, and herself before jumping into the river below.
• A blaze of multicolored flames destroyed Huo Kun’s attack and grievously wounded him, so he ordered a sect-wide search for Youquan before entering seclusion.
• Baishuang and Zhuang Yanyan found Youquan unconscious by the river and carried her home.
• After three days, Youquan woke, thanked the sisters, and learned their names and that they were orphans.

Youquan recovered in Baishuang and Zhuang Yanyan’s care and learned she could qualify for Spirit Hall’s subsidy by becoming a Spirit Master.

• Baishuang told Youquan she needed more rest and gave her porridge, while she and Zhuang Yanyan ate only rice water.

• The next morning, Youquan woke in Xue Qinghe’s care and thanked him for rescuing her.
• After Xue Qinghe offered her food, Youquan asked whether girls could become Crown Prince in the Empire.

Xue Qinghe revealed that he was Qian Renxue and offered to take Youquan in as his younger sister, learning about her tragic past and desire for revenge. After returning to Heaven Dou City, he enrolled her at Heaven Dou Royal Academy, where her Soul Power tested at level 15, and told her to focus on studying while he arranged help for the sisters who had saved her.

• Youquan remembered her mentor Xiao Yixian and decided to prepare pills to ease Dugu Yan's poisonous condition.

Youquan prepared pills to suppress Dugu Yan’s poison with herbs and a cauldron supplied by Xue Qinghe, then returned to the academy and gave the pills to Dugu Yan. After taking one, Dugu Yan found that the poison had stopped harming her body and her Soul Power had risen by one rank.

• Dugu Yan meditated after taking a pill and found that her poison no longer corroded her body and her Soul Power had risen by one rank.

Dugu Bo discovered that Youquan’s pills controlled Dugu Yan’s poison and sought her out to ask whether she could cure his granddaughter completely. Youquan said she had a way to cure both Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo, but her unusual martial soul currently kept her from refining the necessary medicine.

• Dugu Bo visited Dugu Yan and found that a pill from Youquan had eased the poison in her body and his own.
• Dugu Yan told Dugu Bo about Youquan, and he left to find her despite her warning not to frighten her friend.
• Dugu Bo encountered Youquan, while Xue Qinghe protected her and asked why the Poison Douluo had come.
• Youquan told Dugu Bo she could eventually resolve Dugu Yan’s poison and control his, but could not do so yet because fire and ice elements in her martial soul prevented her from using flames normally.
• Dugu Bo asked what she needed and offered to give anything, even his life, to ensure Dugu Yan’s safety.

Youquan traveled with Dugu Bo to the Extreme North Land to search for a way to solve her Martial Soul problem. After finding a strange valley with ice over intense heat, she gave Dugu Bo a prescription for Dugu Yan and leaped into the lava, asking him to leave if she had not returned within a month.

• Youquan asked Dugu Bo to take her to the Extreme North Land and keep the trip secret from Xue Qinghe.

• Youquan used her Soul Force to search the area for half a day, then guided Dugu Bo to a valley with ice covering intense heat.
• Youquan gave Dugu Bo a prescription to keep Dugu Yan safe from her poison and jumped into the lava, asking him to return if she had not emerged after a month.

Youquan found the Bone Spirit Cold Flame in the lava and swallowed it, enduring its devastating heat and cold as she tried to refine it. She began guiding the flame through the Fennel Art, but its violent resistance left the outcome of her attempt uncertain.

• Youquan jumped into the lava, and Dugu Bo and Stingray Douluo followed to make sure she was safe.
• Dugu Bo questioned Stingray Douluo, who said the Crown Prince had ordered him to protect Youquan.
• Youquan found the Bone Spirit Cold Flame inside a massive skeleton and swallowed it after praying to her teacher.

After recovering from the Heavenly Flames, Youquan gained the Bone Spirit Cold Flame and absorbed a ten-thousand-year Spirit Ring, reaching level 25. She and Dugu Bo left for his herb shop so she could begin treating the poison backlash affecting Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo.

• After a month of waiting, Dugu Bo and Stingray Douluo saw Youquan emerge from the magma inside a flame orb, and three days later she recovered and joined them on shore.
• Youquan revealed the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, explained that her martial soul problem was resolved, and told Dugu Bo she had reached level 20.
• Youquan declared the Heavenly Cold Fire Python her target, and Dugu Bo captured it so she could claim its ten-thousand-year Spirit Ring.
• Youquan absorbed the Spirit Ring, resisted the Python's soul shock, and advanced to level 25.
• Youquan offered to treat Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo's poison body backlash, and Dugu Bo carried her toward his herb shop in Sunset Forest.

Youquan explained two ways to resolve the backlash from Dugu Bo and Yanyan’s poison bodies, and Dugu Bo chose the riskier method that would preserve their poison abilities. After preparing in Dugu Bo’s herb garden while he searched for the required materials, Youquan was ready to begin the procedure when he returned.

• Youquan told Dugu Bo that medicinal pills could remove their toxins at the cost of their poison abilities, while a Heavenly Material Earthly Treasure and Heavenly Flames could condense the toxins into Poison Cores.
• Dugu Bo chose the Poison Core method and asked Youquan to test it on him before treating Yanyan; Youquan recommended using Crimson Water Orca gelatin as the medium.
• Dugu Bo left to find the materials, while Youquan refined medicinal pills and practiced Battle Skills in his herb garden for half a month.
• Dugu Bo returned with ten-thousand-year Crimson Water Orca gelatin for Yanyan and said he would use a Soul Bone for himself.
• Youquan told Dugu Bo to restore his strength and set the procedure for the following day at noon.

Youquan helped Dugu Bo gather his Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison and condense it into a Poison Core, leaving him cured and stronger. After recovering from the effort, Youquan accepted Dugu Bo as her grandfather and asked when Dugu Yanyan would arrive so she could return.

• Youquan used the Yang Spring's fire element and her Bone Spirit Cold Flame to protect Dugu Bo as she forced his poison into his right arm bone.

• After Youquan recovered, Dugu Bo brought her food and asked her to call him Grandpa Dugu; he said he would bring Yanyan the next day.
