After Lin Mo incapacitated the Soul Elder who had attacked Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong'er, and Xiao Xiao, he used his golden-red blood to heal Xiao Xiao in the infirmary. As Xiao Xiao blushed at his tender gesture, a strange red thread formed from his blood and wound around her hand.
Lin Mo’s team advanced to the semifinals, while Zhang Lexuan’s attention left him struggling with feelings from his previous life. After Huo Yuhao’s team won its semifinal, Huo Yuhao revealed that Dai Huabin was his older half-brother, and Lin Mo’s reaction left them unexpectedly close.
Lin Mo chose Huo Yuhao to compete in the finals and warned him not to let hatred control him. On the day of the finals, Yan Shaozhe emerged from seclusion and took an unusual interest in Lin Mo.
Yan Shaozhe and Qian Duoduo argued over Huo Yuhao’s future department before the final began. Lin Mo unleashed the Mystic Bird’s Heavenly Might against Dai Huabin’s team, halting their advance.
Lin Mo used a feint to catch Cui Yajie off guard and fought Dai Huabin while Xiao Xiao trapped Zhu Lu. Cui Yajie collapsed after Huo Yuhao secretly interfered, leaving the match at three against two as Lin Mo and Dai Huabin continued battling.
Lin Mo, Huo Yuhao, and Xiao Xiao faced Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu’s Netherworld White Tiger by combining their abilities to buy time for a Martial Soul Fusion. Lin Mo’s fusion with Huo Yuhao unleashed a heaven-mandate power that pinned the tiger and immobilized everyone in the arena, including Yan Shaozhe.
Lin Mo and Huo Yuhao’s team won the freshman assessment championship after revealing their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Mystic Bird Fixes Fate. As the students celebrated and the tournament ended, Zhang Lexuan watched Xiao Xiao with an unusual expression and left, thinking there was plenty of time ahead.
After Lin Mo refused to join the Tang Sect, Huo Yuhao was left out of both the core and provisional core disciple lists despite his hard work. Huo Yuhao seized Lin Mo’s hand and quietly declared that he still had him, leaving Lin Mo terrified of the darkening protagonist’s attention.
Lin Mo and his companions received the academy’s rewards, but Lin Mo’s Martial Soul rejected the Wild Soul Bone, so the group gave it to Xiao Xiao instead. On the first day of classes, Wu Feng challenged Huo Yuhao’s bid for class monitor, and a stern voice cut off the ensuing argument.
Lin Mo calmed the dispute over Huo Yuhao’s challenge, reassured Wu Feng, and told Huo Yuhao he expected him to win. At the Soul Dueling Zone, the class began betting on the match, and everyone waited to see how much Lin Mo would wager.
Lin Mo bet on Huo Yuhao, then realized the power behind him was Electrolux and decided to avoid provoking him. After Huo Yuhao defeated Wu Feng and celebrated his win, he spat blood all over Lin Mo’s uniform.
After Huo Yuhao was injured in his duel with Wu Feng, Lin Mo brought him back to the dorm and reflected on his uncertain past and relationships. That night, Huo Yuhan secretly joined Lin Mo beneath his quilt, and the next morning the two returned to class, where their classmates viewed Huo Yuhao differently and Wu Feng avoided Lin Mo’s gaze.
Zhou Yi punished students who had disrupted class and confirmed Huo Yuhao and Lin Mo as class monitors. After Dai Huabin challenged Lin Mo, Lin Mo offered the crying Wu Feng tissues, and a shackle in his Sea of Spirit broke as a childish voice promised to protect a little bird.
Lin Mo dominated Dai Huabin in the class duel, using his Azure-Gold abilities and Heavenly Might to pin him to the ground. Dai Huabin began conceding as the arena watched in stunned silence.
After eight months of intense training, Lin Mo reached rank thirty as Class One prepared for its first-year holidays and advancement assessment. Yan Shaozhe summoned Lin Mo to his office, where Zhang Lexuan fussed over him and the conversation turned to his breakthrough.
Lin Mo set out for the Great Star Dou Forest with Xuan Zi to find his third soul ring, while Zhang Lexuan admitted to Yan Shaozhe that she had fallen in love with Lin Mo and agreed to end her engagement to Beibei. Xuan Zi left Lin Mo to fend for himself near the forest’s inner ring, where Lin Mo fled from a pack of soul beasts as the Heavenly Dao realized its bird was in danger.
Lin Mo trained in the Great Star Dou Forest while Xuan Zi left to follow the scent of food and liquor. Lin Mo was cornered by a ten-thousand-year Man-Faced Demon Spider and a ten-thousand-year Rock Armor Giant Crocodile, and his plea for help went unanswered.
Di Tian used wine and meat to distract Xuan Zi while the Three-Eyed Golden Lion’s minions trapped Lin Mo. The lion carried the unconscious Lin Mo home, and the Heavenly Dao’s lightning stopped attacking when it realized the lion only wanted to see him.
Lin Mo discovered that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion had given him a ten-thousand-year Vitality Fruit and brought him to its treasure-filled cave, offering him a home and more fruit. Outside, Di Tian and five other fierce beasts secretly watched, hoping Lin Mo would choose to stay in the Great Star Dou Forest.
