Ye Jian defeated Xu Ming with a sword strike that shattered his Martial Soul Avatar and advanced him to Sword Dao Transcendence, then realized his destructive Martial Soul demanded a path that conflicted with his peaceful nature. As he wrestled with that contradiction, Ma Hongjun publicly dismissed the breakthrough as luck and continued provoking him rather than apologizing.
Ye Jian warned Ma Hongjun that Douluo Continent could become the Blue Silver Empire’s next opponent, while the Sun Moon Empire asked to finish the remaining matches. The canopy then revealed Ye Su fleeing the Evil Emperor in the forbidden Evil Demon Forest.
Ye Su was trapped in the Evil Demon Forest and fought the eight-hundred-thousand-year Evil Emperor while viewers from both continents watched through the sky screen. Although he admitted he could not defeat the beast, he declared that he would take its soul ring and refused to flee.
Ye Su used his Ancient Parchment Book martial soul to turn spoken words into laws and battled the Evil Emperor above the Evil Demon Forest. After surviving the Evil Emperor’s combined assault with the two-word spell “Immunity,” Ye Su stood protected by an absolute barrier as the watching crowds erupted in astonishment.
Ye Su was cornered by the Evil Emperor in the Evil Demon Forest and used his final Scroll of Gods to summon the Ancestor. The Azure Emperor, Ye Qing, appeared and froze time, purifying the forest as people across the Blue Silver Continent bowed to him.
Ye Su summoned the Azure Emperor’s projection, whose divine presence terrified the Evil Emperor and allowed Ye Su to escape the Evil Demon Forest. The projection vanished after Ye Su reached safety, while the Evil Emperor remained shaken behind.
The Azure Emperor's phantom disappeared after transforming the Evil Demon Forest, while sightings across the continents revealed that he could appear anywhere. At the coastal battlefield, Ye Su returned and used his Sheepskin Heavenly Book to let everyone experience his encounter with the phantom and study its laws.
Ye Su declared that the Blue Silver Empire had already won the contest, but Heaven Dragon Douluo insisted that the Sun Moon Empire fight the remaining matches to preserve its dignity. Ye Su entered the fourth match, and the Sun Moon Empire chose Xuan Fan, whose seal Ye Su removed before the battle began.
Ye Su faced Xuan Fan, who unleashed his peak Level 98 power to fight for the Sun Moon Empire. After Ye Su restored Xuan Fan’s strength and neutralized his gravity control, Xuan Fan launched a barrage of falling boulders, leaving their battle underway.
Ye Su withstood Xuan Fan’s strongest attacks without being hit, using his strange abilities to evade and defend. Heaven Dragon Douluo conceded for Sun Moon, but Ye Su called the match a draw because neither fighter had hurt the other.
Ye Su declared the previous fight a draw, then introduced Wu Tianque, a Ferocious Beast in human form from the Douluo Continent, as the Blue Silver Empire’s fighter against the Heaven Dragon Douluo. Wu Tianque’s origins shocked the audience, especially Ma Hongjun, as the final battle began.
Wu Tianque recounted how he escaped Xiong Jun, drifted to the Blue Silver Continent, and rose to become a six-hundred-thousand-year Ferocious Beast. Xiao Wu recognized him as her long-lost father, while two Soul Beasts at the Lake of Life recognized him as their godfather.
Wu Tianque learned that his wife had died at Spirit Hall’s hands, while the Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape revealed that Xiao Wu was alive. The news exposed Xiao Wu’s likely identity as a transformed Soul Beast, and Tang Hao prepared to use the approaching crisis for his own plans.
Tang Hao watched Salas send Spirit Hall a report revealing Xiao Wu’s identity and planned to force her to sacrifice herself for Tang San. On the Sky Screen, Heaven Dragon Douluo’s attacks failed to harm Wu Tianque’s Invincible Golden Body, and Heaven Dragon Douluo launched another barrage as Wu Tianque stood his ground.
Wu Tianque avoided Heaven Dragon Douluo’s attacks and defeated him with the Soft Bone Rabbit’s eighteen-stage throw. Heaven Dragon Douluo conceded, giving the Blue Silver Empire a four-win, one-draw victory over the Sun Moon Continent.
After Wu Tianque’s battle revealed his Soft Bone Rabbit abilities, people across the Heaven Dou Empire suspected Xiao Wu was his hundred-thousand-year soul beast daughter. Salas sent secret reports to Spirit Hall, while Tang Hao let them go and plotted to force Xiao Wu to sacrifice herself for Tang San.
Tang Hao planned to let Xiao Wu be forced to sacrifice herself, then use the resulting power and public sympathy to advance his and Tang San’s fortunes. He went to Dugu Bo’s manor to warn him against interfering, leaving Dugu Bo suspecting Tang Hao intended to let Xiao Wu die.
Tang Hao threatened Dugu Bo and warned the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect not to interfere with the rumors about Xiao Wu. Ning Fengzhi realized Tang Hao wanted Xiao Wu dead and planned to claim the benefit of her sacrifice, then ordered Rongrong brought back as Liu Erlong took Xiao Wu to a small lake.
