• Ye Qiyan watched Zhuxing Tu battle Abucado's leader in the Starry Sky but could not identify the leader's ability or even learn his name.

Ye Qiyan and his allies killed the Overlord Bug King after surviving his black-hole warhead and pursuing him through the swarm. Ye Qiyan realized the King-Tier Predation Core could be ascended, and considered using it to affect the millions of insects surrounding Main City.
