Chapter Summaries

Tang San returned to Dorm Seven and found Li Jin and Xiao Wu enjoying themselves together, while their cultivation advanced as they slept. The next morning, a strange cloud repeatedly blocked Tang San from cultivating the Purple Demon Eye and even gave him the middle finger, leaving him to seek food before visiting Yu Xiaogang and Tang Hao.

• Tang San returned to Dorm Seven and saw Li Jin use Spiritual Sharing to show Xiao Wu episodes of Tom and Jerry.
• Li Jin and Xiao Wu went to sleep together, while Tang San angrily cultivated the Mysterious Heaven Skill through the night.
• Tang San went to the rooftop at dawn to cultivate the Purple Demon Eye, but a cloud repeatedly blocked the sunlight whenever he faced it.
• The cloud gave Tang San the middle finger, and he left the rooftop frustrated and hungry.
• Tang San decided to find food before visiting Yu Xiaogang and Tang Hao.

Tang San lost his only Gold Soul Coin paying for a broken bed, then discovered his work-study subsidy had been deducted after Yu Xiaogang's complaint. When Tang San sought help from Yu Xiaogang, he revealed that his father was Tang Hao, and Yu Xiaogang recognized the famed Titled Douluo.

• Mo Hen stopped Tang San and demanded one Gold Soul Coin to replace the bed he had broken.
• Tang San paid Mo Hen, then learned his cleaning subsidy had been withheld because Yu Xiaogang complained about dog shit in his assigned area.
• Tang San went hungry and asked Yu Xiaogang for money, but Yu Xiaogang said his fortune had disappeared with his Storage Soul Tool and suggested Tang San eat the leftover radishes.
• Tang San told Yu Xiaogang that he had found his father, who had become a beggar in Nuoding City.
• Yu Xiaogang followed Tang San to see the sick man, learned his name was Tang Hao, and recognized him as the Clear Sky Titled Douluo.

Yu Xiaogang took charge of caring for Tang Hao and vowed to blame Spirit Hall for his condition. Tang San’s radish-induced farting drove him from class and led him to a smithy, where his failed attempt to work started a fire that destroyed the forge.

• Yu Xiaogang promised Tang San that he would care for Tang Hao and find the person who ambushed him, while Tang San left for class.
• Tang San’s stomach churned after he ate wilted radishes, and his nonstop farts drove Xiao Wu, Li Jin, the teacher, and the other students from the classroom.
• Left alone, Tang San continued farting, then fled Nuoding Academy in humiliation and wandered the streets.
• Tang San sought work at a smithy, but his hunger and exhaustion made him lose control of the hammer while using the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer.
• The hammer demolished the furnace, scattering hot coals and setting the smithy ablaze as Tang San stared in shock.

After Tang San’s accident at the burned smithy, he paid for the damage by surrendering Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges. Li Jin bought the belt from the smithy owner and took Xiao Wu to a pharmacy to ask about whale rubber.

• The smithy burned for hours, and its owner demanded that Tang San pay for the destruction.
• Tang San, too hungry to fight back and afraid of being expelled, gave the smithy owner Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges as compensation.
• Li Jin approached the smithy owner and bought Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges for 3,000 Gold Soul Coins.
• Li Jin returned to Xiao Wu, showed her the belt, and invited her to eat something that would benefit their bodies.
• Li Jin and Xiao Wu went to Nuoding City’s largest pharmacy, where Li Jin asked the shopkeeper whether he had whale rubber.

Li Jin bought a shabby piece of whale rubber that he believed was actually ten-thousand-year whale glue, then prepared it with his Spiritual Bestowal skill. He and Xiao Wu ate half each, beginning an attempt to strengthen their physiques.

• Li Jin ignored the pale yellow whale rubber and bought the black piece for 300 Gold Soul Coins.
• Li Jin told Xiao Wu that whale rubber could strengthen the body and claimed the black piece was ten-thousand-year whale glue.
• Li Jin booked a hotel room and used Spiritual Bestowal to heat the whale rubber until it softened into golden paste.
• Li Jin warned Xiao Wu to suppress any bodily reactions, and they each ate half of the ten-thousand-year whale glue.

Li Jin and Xiao Wu absorbed the ten-thousand-year whale glue, strengthening their bodies and raising their Soul Power; Li Jin opened his Ren and Du meridians and reached rank 15. Meanwhile, Tang San returned to Yu Xiaogang hungry and learned that his teacher had borrowed money from the dean.

• Li Jin used his ice element to endure the whale glue's heat, while its power strengthened his body and helped him absorb the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's energy.
• Xiao Wu clung to Li Jin for his cooling presence as the whale glue strengthened her physique and raised her Soul Power from rank 11 to rank 13.
• After an hour, Li Jin reached rank 15, opened his Ren and Du meridians, and discovered that his Soul Power circulation had formed a minor heavenly circuit.
• Li Jin and Xiao Wu woke, teased each other, and left together after Xiao Wu announced her breakthrough.
• Tang San went to Yu Xiaogang's residence hungry and found his teacher distressed by rumors about what happened when Tang San brought him home.
• Yu Xiaogang gave Tang San a Gold Soul Coin from the money he had borrowed from the dean, and Tang San went to buy food for them.

Tang San confronted Li Jin over the Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges and proposed a wager to win it back. Xiao Wu attacked Tang San after he insulted her and challenged Li Jin, who joined the fight and used Spiritual Detection Sharing to scan Tang San and begin deciphering Purple Demon Eye.

• Tang San returned to Dorm Seven and mistakenly thought Xiao Wu had gone to get a room with Li Jin, then insulted her and was mocked by the work-study students as the Fart King.
• Tang San saw the Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges on Li Jin and demanded it back, but Li Jin said he had paid 3,000 Gold Soul Coins and refused to return it.
• Tang San offered to wager the belt in a fight, but Li Jin refused because Tang San had no stake to offer.
• Xiao Wu activated Martial Soul Possession and attacked Tang San, who used Purple Demon Eye and Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to evade her.
• Li Jin activated Spiritual Detection Sharing, overwhelming Tang San's eyes, scanning his body, and beginning to decipher Purple Demon Eye.

Xiao Wu defeated Tang San with Li Jin’s Spiritual Detection Sharing helping her anticipate his attacks, while Li Jin used the fight to copy Tang San’s Tang Sect Secret Arts. Tang San yielded but resolved to regain the Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges and eventually defeat Xiao Wu.

• Li Jin shared his Spiritual Detection with Xiao Wu, allowing her to predict Tang San’s Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and strike his face.
• Tang San used Blue Silver Entanglement and several Tang Sect Secret Arts to resist Xiao Wu while Li Jin rapidly recorded and deduced them.
• Tang San exhausted his rank 11 Soul Power, and Xiao Wu used Waist Bow to throw him to the ground.
• Xiao Wu warned Tang San not to disrespect her or provoke Li Jin, and Tang San admitted he was wrong.
• Tang San privately planned to reclaim the Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges from Li Jin and defeat Xiao Wu once he grew stronger.

Li Jin began using the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm to verify the Mysterious Heaven Skill’s Soul Power circulation, while Tang San struggled with worsening itching after absorbing the Mangy Snake Soul Ring. Tang San sought help from Yu Xiaogang, who discovered a poisonous sore on his back and insisted his theory could not be wrong.

• Li Jin told Xiao Wu he planned to create his own Soul Skills, then had the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm simulate Tang San’s Mysterious Heaven Skill so he could check its circulation route.
• Li Jin finished examining the cultivation method late at night and went to sleep beside Xiao Wu.
• Tang San skipped class and went to Yu Xiaogang, explaining his fight with Xiao Wu and Li Jin and the loss of the Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges.
• Yu Xiaogang reassured Tang San that he could devise tactics against Li Jin and Xiao Wu, then noticed Tang San scratching his back.
• Yu Xiaogang saw a poisonous sore on Tang San’s back and wondered why Tang San had inherited the Mangy Snake’s poison; when Tang San challenged his theory, Yu Xiaogang insisted it was correct.

After Tang Hao, Yu Xiaogang, and Tang San were taken to a clinic with severe burns, Li Jin taught Xiao Wu the Mysterious Heaven Skill and began cultivating it himself. Their improved cultivation motivated them to train harder and prepare to defeat Tang San on their own next time, while he and the others remained unconscious.

• The students watched Tang Hao, Yu Xiaogang, and Tang San being carried away, and the dean sent the crowd back to class.
• Li Jin told Xiao Wu he had improved a cultivation method and promised to teach it to her; Wang Sheng shared that his Soul Power had reached rank ten and he would hunt a Soul Beast the next day.
• During the afternoon free period, Li Jin taught Xiao Wu the Mysterious Heaven Skill in a grove, and they both began cultivating it.
• Li Jin quickly transformed his Soul Power by circulating the skill, while Xiao Wu found that her cultivation efficiency had increased by at least thirty percent.
• Li Jin and Xiao Wu vowed to train harder and defeat Tang San without relying on each other next time.
• Tang Hao, Yu Xiaogang, and Tang San remained unconscious in the clinic as a physician treated their severe burns.
