Xue Qinghe showed Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu around Heaven Dou Royal Academy and learned that Xu Yuan’s Wish-Granting Tree could fulfill wishes at a steep cost. After discovering Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo had left Seven Treasure City, Qian Renxue vowed to protect Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu from anyone seeking the Martial Soul.
Qian Renxue questioned Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu about the Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul, learning that a Titled Douluo had once made a wish through it. She declined to make a wish herself, called Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu her younger siblings, and led them to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy dormitories.
Qian Renxue sent Snake Lance Douluo to investigate Yu Xiaogang and Shrek Academy, then entered her secret chamber and wondered what a fusion skill with Xu Yuan might be like. In Nuoding City, Ning Fengzhi tried to expose Scarface’s leverage over Yu Xiaogang, but discovered Yu and Tang San had already left for Shrek and chose to distance himself from Yu.
Xu Yuan fused his Soul Power and spiritual power while refining a fragment of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's soul origin, then entered Unity of Heaven and Man through his Blue Silver Domain. Qian Renxue and Porcupinefish Douluo witnessed his breakthrough, and Porcupinefish Douluo recognized his potential to become a Peak Douluo.
Xu Yuan comprehended Unity of Heaven and Man, created a powerful Soul Skill, and revealed his Innate Domain to Qian Renxue and Xiao Wu. Qian Renxue then proposed introducing them to students at Heaven Dou Royal Academy, including Yu Tianheng.
Qian Renxue brought Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu to meet Qin Ming and the Imperial Fighting Team, where they learned about Ye Lingling’s Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul and its inheritance. The group left with the possibility that the so-called curse surrounding the Martial Soul was imposed by the Ye Clan, while Xu Yuan’s Wish-Granting Tree was introduced to Dugu Yan.
Dugu Yan and Qian Renxue revealed that Xu Yuan's Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul could grant wishes at a cost, and Yu Tianheng learned that his uncle Yu Xiaogang had endorsed it. Ye Lingling decided to bid for a Wish Slot, while Yu Tianheng watched to see whether the ability was genuine.
Xu Yuan agreed to grant Ye Lingling’s wish to escape the Nine Heart Begonia inheritance curse. The Wish-Granting Tree began draining her Martial Soul’s origin, causing its grade to plummet.
Xu Yuan’s wish-granting tree combined the Blue Silver Emperor and Nine Heart Begonia origins, creating a life domain and transforming Ye Lingling’s Martial Soul. Ye Lingling escaped the inheritance curse, but her new Blue Silver Begonia produced healing fruit that she had to eat to continue healing.
Ye Lingling explained how the Ye Clan’s Nine Heart Begonia inheritance had bound her family to sacrifice and bear children, and said she had wanted to break the curse but lacked the courage until Xu Yuan’s Wish-Granting Tree changed her Martial Soul. As the group sampled her begonia fruits, Xu Yuan noticed that Dugu Yan’s unusual preference for the green fruit might be linked to her Azure Jade Toad Soul Ring.
Ye Lingling tested the Blue Silver Begonia’s fruit while Qian Renxue offered to protect her and promised Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu a tour of the Heaven Dou Treasury. After Ning Fengzhi returned, he and Chen Xin suspected Xu Yuan’s Martial Soul could trigger incomplete evolution, and Ning Fengzhi began reporting what he had learned about Xue Beng and Shrek Academy.
