Lin Xuan agreed to help Tang San establish the Tang Sect and began cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Skill. Tang San delivered the Qi Circulation Route Diagram the next morning, and the group continued their training together.

• Lin Xuan and Tang San discussed recruiting core members for the Tang Sect and decided to focus on the Soul Master Tournament first.

• After breakfast, the group meditated and cultivated together in the Back Hill Courtyard.

Lin Xuan intervened when Ning Rongrong and Ye Lingling’s unstable Martial Soul Fusion Skill began draining their Soul Power, absorbing its energy and saving them. He concluded that the fusion was only half-formed and left the story with the two women recovering as the others discussed its potential.

• Lin Xuan advanced from late Level 46 to Level 47 after a month of cultivating with the Mysterious Heaven Skill and Clear Mind Talisman.
• Ning Rongrong and Ye Lingling’s attempted Martial Soul Fusion Skill produced a powerful sphere that they could not control, alarming Dugu Yan and drawing the others from their rooms.

• Flender claimed the uniforms had the continent’s most eye-catching color and pulled away the black covering to reveal them.

Blue Tyrant Academy rejected Flender’s ugly green uniforms and chose its original blue-and-white outfits for the tournament. With the opening match approaching, Liu Erlong told the team to rest, and Lin Xuan arranged a day off before Tang San asked about his progress with the techniques he had taught him.

• Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, Tang San, and the others objected to Flender’s green uniforms, and Lin Xuan closed the chest and suggested wearing the blue-and-white uniforms instead.

• Tang San was shocked when Lin Xuan said he had reached minor mastery in the Tang Sect's four secret techniques, then returned to assembling hidden weapons.
• Lin Xuan and the others encountered Oscar struggling to support drunk Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun near Blue Tyrant Academy's side gate.

• Lin Xuan explained that he had spoken up because Oscar was talented and not beyond help, while Xiao Wu and the others agreed to enjoy their day off.
• Ning Rongrong offered to cover the group's expenses, and the companions ate street food and went shopping for clothes.
