Lin Xiao named the Three-Eyed Golden Lion Lin Qiu'er and promised to cook a feast for the hungry beasts. After Di Tian brought back several soul beasts, Lin Xiao roasted a black carp, and Lin Qiu'er eagerly tasted it.
Lin Xiao shared a feast with Gu Yuena and the soul beasts before staying overnight in the Star Dou Great Forest. After reading Lin Qiu'er to sleep, he followed Gu Yuena to her bed, where she invited him to sleep beside her.
Lin Xiao spent the night with Gu Yuena, then prepared to leave the Lake of Life with the Snow Empress. Lin Qiu'er linked their destinies and demanded to go with him, while finding his memories strangely obscured.
Lin Xiao prepared to enter the human world with Lin Qiu'er and Gu Yuena, while Tang San accepted seven pills from the God of Wild Dogs to strengthen the Shrek Seven Devils. Poseidon revealed that the pills contained Forbidden Medicine, setting up trouble for the group.
Tang San received seven pills from a god, used one to raise his soul power to nearly Level 40, and brought another to Yu Xiaogang, who embraced him with pride and gratitude. Yu Xiaogang urged Tang San to tell the assembled Shrek members about the god’s reward and make himself the team’s core.
Tang San revealed that he had received the Sea God’s inheritance and shared divine pills that raised the Shrek students’ Soul Power, while Poseidon altered Tang San’s trial to demand an impossible victory within two days. The Shrek group traveled to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt Soul Rings, unaware that a strange shoot was watching them.
The Myriad Demon King discovered that Tang San’s Blue Silver Grass carried a trace of the Blue Silver Emperor’s bloodline and suspected he was Ah Yin’s child, adding him to his list while deciding not to interfere directly. Meanwhile, Yu Xiaogang advised the Shrek party on fourth soul rings and proposed an evolved solitary bamboo for Tang San, before turning to Oscar and Ma Hongjun.
Yu Xiaogang proposed that Oscar pursue an offensive fourth soul skill and gave Ma Hongjun two ways to handle his evil fire, while the Myriad Demon King secretly memorized the suggested soul beasts. Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing absorbed their fourth soul rings and gained new defensive and offensive abilities.
The Shrek group followed a strange howl to what seemed to be a rare Black Jade Spirit Bamboo, which Yu Xiaogang believed was ideal for Tang San’s fourth Soul Ring. Tang San absorbed the ring, but the bamboo revealed itself to be a Thousand-Year Lone Bamboo, leaving him and Yu Xiaogang stunned.
Tang San struggled to accept his disappointing fourth soul skill, but his companions encouraged him and the group continued searching for soul beasts. In a swamp, they defeated a Thousand-Year Poison-Scaled Python, leaving its soul ring for Oscar as a potential target.
Oscar absorbed a Poison-Scaled Python Soul Ring and gained a foul-smelling, poisonous Big Sausage skill that could be swung at enemies and caused him to fart. The group then found a wounded scarlet bird for Ma Hongjun, and Yu Xiaogang began assessing whether it could provide Hongjun’s Fourth Soul Ring.
Ma Hongjun absorbed a Soul Ring that grew more powerful during the process, triggering a dangerous eruption of his Evil Fire. After his flames broke Zhao Wuji’s restraint, he attacked Oscar, and both were left unconscious after the fire finally subsided.
Lin Xiao gathered his newly strengthened tournament roster and held a three-way sparring match at the Spirit Pagoda. Xu Xiaoyan’s team won after she and Dugu Yan outlasted the others, while Lin Xiao left the girls preparing for the tournament with praise and a rebuke for Xiao Wu.
Lin Xiao prepared his companions for the National Advanced Soul Master Tournament and ordered Zhang Lexuan to become a Titled Douluo and accompany the team. Meanwhile, Bibi Dong suspected the Spirit Pagoda had taken Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, and ordered an assassination of Skywater Academy’s team before the finals.
Zhang Lexuan and the Spirit Pagoda’s tournament team grew stronger as they prepared for the Soul Fighting Tournament, while Shrek Academy set out with its own lineup. At the Heaven Dou Division preliminaries, Shui Bing’er revealed her formidable soul rings to the elemental academies, and Yu Luomian continued searching Sunset Forest without success.
