• Qian Renxue called Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu her younger siblings, resolved to protect them if needed, 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 used his Blue Silver Domain and a fragment of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's soul origin to provoke a fusion of his Soul Power and spiritual power.

• Qian Renxue asked Porcupinefish Douluo about Xu Yuan's domain and the state he had entered.
• Porcupinefish Douluo explained that Unity of Heaven and Man was nearly a prerequisite for becoming a Level 96 Peak Douluo and said Xu Yuan had the potential to become one.

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.

• Xu Yuan used the Blue Silver Domain to comprehend Unity of Heaven and Man and realized he could combine his spiritual power and Soul Power into a self-created Soul Skill.
• Qian Renxue congratulated Xu Yuan, learned he had an Innate Domain and a self-created Soul Skill, and teased him for hiding his abilities.
• Xu Yuan accidentally revealed that Qian Renxue’s disguised chest was unusually prominent, making her blush and push him away.
• Xiao Wu arrived, complained that Xu Yuan had kept her cultivating late, and explained that her self-created grappling Soul Skill had once subdued him.
• Qian Renxue changed the subject and offered to introduce Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu to students at Heaven Dou Royal Academy, mentioning 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.

• Yu Tianheng displayed his Thunder Dragon Claw and Thunderous Might during training, and Qin Ming explained that he had recently advanced to Level 30.
• Qian Renxue introduced Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu to Qin Ming, then introduced them to Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling.
• Ye Lingling and Qian Renxue explained that only one inheritor of the Nine Heart Begonia could exist in each generation, and that a new inheritor could be born only after the previous holder died.
• Xiao Wu questioned whether Nine Heart Begonia’s inheritance rule was truly a curse, prompting Xu Yuan and Qian Renxue to suspect that the Ye Clan might be forcing Ye Lingling to preserve the Martial Soul line.
• Xu Yuan stopped Xiao Wu from pressing Ye Lingling and reminded her that they still had to visit the Heaven Dou Auction House.
• Qian Renxue introduced Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu to Dugu Yan and revealed that Xu Yuan’s Wish-Granting Tree could grant other people’s wishes across a rank gap.

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.

• Qian Renxue explained that Xu Yuan's Martial Soul granted wishes at a price, with one Wish Slot each month and limits on wishes involving life and death.
• Yu Tianheng doubted the claim until Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu said Yu Xiaogang had approved the Martial Soul and had become a Soul Elder after making a wish.
• Yu Tianheng eagerly asked about Yu Xiaogang, learned he had taken a Blue Silver Grass Soul Master as a disciple, and heard that he might be found at Shrek Academy in Suotuo City.
• Qin Ming proudly described Shrek Academy and its graduates, including a supposed Spirit Hall elder, while Qian Renxue grew displeased.
• Ye Lingling asked to make a wish, and Xu Yuan told her she would have to bid for a Wish Slot and accept the risk; she agreed while Yu Tianheng chose to observe.

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.

• Ye Lingling insisted on making a wish that night, while Dugu Yan, Yu Tianheng, and Qin Ming asked to witness it.
• Qian Renxue told Xu Yuan that the imperial treasury held a Submerged Dragon Boat and the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, so he abandoned his plan to visit the Heaven Dou Auction House.
• Xu Yuan warned Ye Lingling that the Wish-Granting Tree granted wishes without regard for consequences, but she remained determined.
• After midnight, Xu Yuan summoned the Wish-Granting Tree in Xue Qinghe’s courtyard, and Ye Lingling wished to escape the Nine Heart Begonia inheritance curse.
• Xu Yuan activated the Wish-Granting Tree, which extracted the Nine Heart Begonia’s origin and caused Ye Lingling’s Martial Soul 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.

• Xu Yuan discovered that Ye Lingling’s Nine Heart Begonia origin was nearly depleted because its total origin was divided between only two Martial Souls.
• The Blue Silver Emperor seed in Xu Yuan’s hand burned away and sent its life force into Ye Lingling’s Martial Soul, ending the curse and creating the Blue Silver Begonia.
• The new Martial Soul produced a nine-colored seed, while the Wish-Granting Tree’s second Soul Ring advanced into a life Soul Ring.
• After the light faded, Ye Lingling summoned her changed Martial Soul and confirmed that her wish had freed her from the Nine Heart Begonia inheritance curse.
• Ye Lingling used her Soul Skill to grow a healing begonia fruit, learning that its limited healing effect required her to keep eating it.
• Qian Renxue questioned whether Xu Yuan’s wish-granting had truly worked, and Yu Tianheng grew concerned about his own wish.

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.

• Qian Renxue and Qin Ming reacted to Ye Lingling losing the Nine Heart Begonia, while Ye Lingling clarified that the change fulfilled her own wish.
• Ye Lingling recounted her mother’s unhappiness, her grandfather’s sacrifice, and how the clan’s inheritance customs had made the Nine Heart Begonia a shackle.
• Ye Lingling thanked Xu Yuan, but Xiao Wu interrupted when she saw Ye Lingling approach him; Xu Yuan teased Xiao Wu, and Ye Lingling gave her a begonia fruit that restored her vitality.
• Yu Tianheng asked how Ye Lingling would answer to her clan, and she said she would accept responsibility herself; Dugu Yan promised her grandfather would protect Ye Lingling.
• Ye Lingling produced white and azure-green begonia fruits for the group, and Dugu Yan found the green fruit especially refreshing because her Azure Jade Toad Soul Ring could cleanse negative conditions and neutralize poison.
• Xu Yuan noticed that Dugu Yan’s preference for the green begonia fruit seemed connected to her 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.

• Ye Lingling tasted the White and Green Begonia Fruits, and Qin Ming and Qian Renxue discussed the Martial Soul’s uses and limitations.
• Qian Renxue promised to speak with the Ye Clan and offered to take Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu to see the Heaven Dou Treasury the next day.
• Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo emerged from the shadows, and Ning Fengzhi urged Qian Renxue to secure Xu Yuan after seeing the begonia fruit.
• Qian Renxue told them that a Titled Expert had once made a wish to Xu Yuan, and Ning Fengzhi guessed that the visitor had been Tang Hao.
• Chen Xin suggested that the Blue Silver Begonia might be incompletely evolved and that Xu Yuan’s Martial Soul could provoke its hidden potential.
• Ning Fengzhi agreed to test Chen Xin’s theory the next day, then began telling Qian Renxue what he had learned about Xue Beng, Nuoding City, and Shrek Academy.
