He entered the Federation Selection Tournament’s western division in the Star Dou Battle Network, where Ouyang Zixin came to cheer him on and grew closer to him.

• Yehui's Demon Gate opened, and a tremendous spiritual force emerged from within it, leading the Demon Empress to realize the Demon Plane had a God Rank expert.

Electrolux emerged from the Demon Gate as the Demon Plane’s overlord, commanding a vast army and confronting the Holy Spirit Cult. After the Demon Empress revealed the Holy Spirit Cult’s allies and their plan to attack the Douluo Federation, Electrolux agreed to cooperate on the condition that the Demon Plane join their pursuit of godhood.
