After a conversation with Dugu Yan about the role of commoners and strength, Bai Yu joined Yu Tianheng's group for a mission after their missing teammates left them short-handed. The group set out together, though they remained wary of Bai Yu.

• After the duel between Yu Tianheng and Dai Mubai ended without a winner, Bai Yu wandered to a secluded mansion at the academy's edge.
• Dugu Yan told Bai Yu that her grandfather lived there because the view reminded him of her late grandmother, whom he had met while rescuing a village from Bandits.

The captain recognized Dugu Yan as Poison Douluo's granddaughter and tried to use their connections to excuse the killings, leaving the dispute unresolved.
