Brother Scar forced Gangzi to lure Tang San to the Rose Hotel with a poisoned letter, where he captured him and destroyed his hidden weapon. Tang San realized his teacher had betrayed him, while Gangzi silently regretted helping Brother Scar.
Lin En accepted gifts from Dugu Bo, then harvested nearly all the Immortal Herbs in Dugu Bo’s garden at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. After Dugu Bo reluctantly forgave him, Lin En prepared to leave for Heaven Dou City with Dugu Yan.
On the journey back to Heaven Dou City, Lin En persuaded Dugu Yan to let him use his supposed meridian-opening technique, then remembered Brother Scar and headed to the Rose Hotel. The chapter left Lin En on his way to meet Brother Scar, who had just finished with a master and disciple and left them Gold Soul Coins and a note.
Lin En instructed Brother Scar to uninstall Gangzi and Tang San’s QQ, and Brother Scar ambushed the two at the Rose Hotel after they tried to escape. Tang San’s flight attempt failed, and Brother Scar captured both of them and carried out the threat, leaving them unconscious.
Brother Scar’s party left Tang San and Gangzi castrated, and both men woke in agony. Tang San threatened Gangzi but spared him for the promise of cultivation guidance, while Gangzi secretly planned to hinder him and seek Dong’er; the chapter ended with Tang San leaving after kicking Gangzi.
Lin En punished Brother Scar after detecting his disloyal thoughts and then sealed him in a cave with a drugged Wolf Bandit as a test. He left with Sagros, planning to return in three days to see whether Scar had survived.
After finding Scar alive with a Wolf Bandit's teeth as an External Soul Bone, Lin En revived and spared him, then ordered him to target Shrek. Scar accepted the mission and discovered his new wolf fangs, while Lin En left him to prove his loyalty through action.
Lin En returned to the exchange tournament at Blazing Fire Academy, making a dramatic entrance on Sagros after gaining power and evolving his Martial Soul. He reunited with the Skywater Team and immediately provoked Shui Yue'er and Zhu Zhuqing, leaving the teams watching his antics before the final match.
Lin En returned to the Skywater Team and led them to an overwhelming victory over the Blazing Fire Team. Back at Skywater Academy, he handed out valuable spiritual herbs as a surprise for his teammates and teachers.
Lin En gave the group medicinal herbs, then guided Zhu Zhuqing in absorbing the Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone, which greatly increased her Soul Power. The chapter ended with Zhu Zhuqing embracing and kissing Lin En after he pulled her close.
Lin En visited Shui Qingyue at her office and gave her a dragon bone containing Ultimate Ice, claiming he had stolen it from a Titled Douluo. Shui Qingyue agreed to handle any trouble but tried to return the gift, while Lin En insisted she keep it.
Lin En gave Shui Qingyue an Ice Dragon King bone, then teased her about relying on him to help Skywater Academy win the tournament. At Shrek Academy, Tang San endured punishing training while Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Little Ao went out to indulge themselves, with Brother Scar secretly following them.
Brother Scar kidnapped Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar after they went to a brothel in Suotuo City. He tied them up in a secret chamber and made clear that he intended to torment them, leaving Dai Mubai terrified and confused about what would happen next.
Brother Scar kidnapped Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar and used his tools to remove their QQs, then returned them to their room the next morning. Dai Mubai woke believing it had been a nightmare, but discovered he had lost his manhood.
Tang San rallied Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun around revenge and the hope of becoming gods, while Lin En helped Zhu Zhuqing pursue a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring. The chapter ended with Lin En returning to Skywater Academy’s group with a Dark Devil Tiger and a Five-Colored Deer for their hunt.
Zhu Zhuqing successfully absorbed the Dark Devil Tiger’s Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, and the group continued through the Star Dou Great Forest. When the Heavenly Water girls stopped to wash, Lin En secretly flew around Lan Susu’s guard and hid near their pool, though he later denied doing anything wrong.
Tang San reached level forty after intensive cultivation and absorbing a ten-thousand-year Soul Bone, while secretly planning to use Xiao Wu’s sacrifice to restore himself and become a god. Tang Hao continued searching for Xiao Wu inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and Tang San set out to find a Soul Ring.
Tang San reached rank forty and prepared to hunt for a new Soul Ring, while Gangzi secretly planned to sabotage him with a Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo. After several days without finding a suitable beast, Tang San urged the Shrek group to venture deeper into the Star Dou Great Forest, and Gangzi's warning heightened tensions.
The Shrek group found a ten-thousand-year Cave Demon Spider, and Tang San insisted on absorbing its soul ring despite Flender and Zhao Wuji’s concerns. As Tang San’s absorption stabilized, Gangzi secretly replaced the powerful ring with a ten-year solitary bamboo soul ring, intending to ruin Tang San’s martial soul.
Tang San finished absorbing the Cave Demon Spider, but his supposed Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring appeared as a Ten-Year ring. Gangzi blamed a fabricated Soul Ring Mutation on Tang San’s weak Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, leaving Tang San devastated and questioning whether he could ever change his fate.
After his Blue Silver Grass’s fourth Soul Ring mutated into a Ten-Year ring, Tang San decided to cultivate his Clear Sky Hammer instead, and Gangzi offered to help him add a ring. Gangzi secretly replaced the Thousand-Year ring with a Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo, leaving Tang San to absorb it unaware.
Tang San absorbed a thousand-year Soul Ring, but it mutated into a white ten-year ring, leaving him furious and despairing. His fourth Soul Skill also produced ten-year Solitary Bamboo, and Yu Xiaogang blamed the effect on Tang San’s External Bamboo Shoot Bone before Dai Mubai shattered the cage with one punch.
Tang San discovered that his mutated Ten-Year Soul Rings had given his Blue Silver Grass an instant group-control skill and his Clear Sky Hammer powerful bamboo-pole attacks. Gangzi secretly arranged for all four of Tang San’s Clear Sky Hammer rings to become Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo rings, and the chapter ended with Tang San demonstrating an attack that resembled Monkey Sun’s heavenly staff strike.
