• Dai Mubai explained that the Clear Sky Sect and Spirit Hall also had potential successors to deities, including Bibi Dong, Yu Xiaogang’s former lover.

Dai Mubai arranged for Oscar to handle Yu Xiaogang’s death, then secluded himself to cultivate with rare metals. At Shrek Academy, Zhu Zhuqing’s ten-thousand-year fourth Soul Ring shattered Yu Xiaogang’s theories and deepened Tang San’s doubts about his teacher.

• Dai Mubai told Oscar how deeply Bibi Dong might care for Yu Xiaogang, and Oscar promised to arrange Yu Xiaogang’s death at the hands of someone deserving.

• Tang San suspected the withheld information concerned his mother and swore to protect Oscar if he revealed the truth.

Tang San grew suspicious of Yu Xiaogang after reading Oscar’s information and began testing whether his teacher could help him change his martial soul’s development.

• Tang San drugged the dinner at Oscar and the others’ gathering, then entered their courtyard to steal Oscar’s remaining information.
• Tang San found Xiao Wu awake and told her he had drugged the food because he needed information about his mother.

After consuming it, he transformed his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul and became more convinced that his mother had been a transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast and that Tang Hao had helped cause her death.

• Tang San decided to seek Ink Jade Divine Bamboo in the Star Dou Great Forest, and Xiao Wu caught up with him and offered to go along.
• Xiao Wu secretly planned to contact Da Ming and Er Ming, who found a semi-immortal-grade Ink Jade Divine Bamboo elsewhere in the forest and gave it to Tang San.

• Zhu Zhuqing ordered Black Panther to capture Xiao Wu for Dai Mubai’s Seventh Soul Ring.

Black Panther secretly captured Xiao Wu after identifying her as a transformed hundred-thousand-year soul beast, but chose to keep her for Dai Mubai rather than claim her power for himself. Outside Shrek Academy, Tang Hao confronted Dugu Bo and learned that Dugu Bo had mistaken his intentions; the two were left discussing their sons at the academy.

Tang San revealed that Yu Xiaogang’s teachings had damaged his Blue Silver Grass martial soul, and Tang Hao fixated on the possibility that its life path could resurrect Ah Yin. Convinced Yu Xiaogang had destroyed that hope, Tang Hao unleashed his killing intent at Shrek Academy, while Yu Xiaogang mistook the pressure for a sign that his plans were working.

• Tang San questioned Tang Hao about whether his first martial soul had been the Blue Silver King or Blue Silver Emperor, and Tang Hao demanded to know who had told him.
• Tang San showed Tang Hao his transformed Blue Silver Grass martial soul and explained that Yu Xiaogang’s teachings had blocked its potential life path.

• Zhao Wuji refrained from attacking because he feared a fight would disrupt Dai Mubai’s secluded cultivation.

• Tang Hao was shocked by Dai Mubai’s strength, grabbed Tang San, and hurried away.

Flender pleaded with Dai Mubai to save Yu Xiaogang, but Dai Mubai refused and directed him toward the Nine Heart Begonia healers in Heaven Dou Imperial City. As Flender set out carrying Yu Xiaogang, someone blocked his path.

• Tang San asked Tang Hao to take Xiao Wu with them, and Tang Hao explained that she had already left Shrek Academy.

• A figure blocked Flender's path as he began to leave.

After Flender hurried away to help Yu Xiaogang, Ma Hongjun and Oscar confronted the academy’s uncertain future, while Dai Mubai heard how Dugu Bo had met Yang Wudi and agreed to visit the Breaking Clan.

• Dai Mubai tore Tang Hao’s body apart and annihilated his soul power, killing the Clear Sky Douluo.
