The Shrek Seven Devils and the Spirit Hall Second Team revealed powerful team techniques in their losers’ bracket match. As Tang San’s Dark Gold Clear Sky Hammer struck, Xu Zi and his teammates pulled a mysterious purple crystal weapon from his Purple Sun, and it turned out to be a great halberd rather than a spear.

• Shrek formed a Seven-in-One Fusion Skill that concentrated their Soul Power in Tang San, while Xu Zi’s team began a seven-in-one Absorption Skill that strengthened Xu Zi with their powers.

• The three drew the object fully out of the sun, but its supposed spearhead plunged into the arena and carved a deep furrow.
• Xu Zi realized the weapon was a great halberd, not a spear.

Xu Zi forged the Purple Gold Dragon Emperor Halberd by sacrificing Huang Su and Tuoba Yu’s Golden Bloodline and lesser dragon Martial Soul Origins, then clashed evenly with Tang San’s Dark Gold Clear Sky Hammer. The Shrek Seven Devils regained their footing while Xu Zi was left with two teammates unconscious, and Tang San prepared to change tactics.

• Xu Zi summoned the Purple Gold Dragon Emperor Halberd after Huang Su and Tuoba Yu’s bloodline and Martial Soul Origins were drained, leaving both unconscious.

Xu Zi advanced to meet Tang San’s eighty-first strike, ending the chapter at the moment their attacks were about to collide.

• Tang San resumed swinging the Dark Gold Clear Sky Hammer, building momentum for the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer’s eighty-one strikes.
• Xu Zi realized his exhausted teammates could not help him and sought a countermeasure from the consciousness within his halberd.
• After Xu Zi promised to offer a Ten-Thousand-Year Dragon Scale Fruit, the lingering will took control of his body and demonstrated its halberd technique.

As Xu Zi prepared to attack with a materialized Purple Sun, Tang San’s father warned him to recall the Clear Sky Hammer, leaving Tang San with an overdrawn soul and Xu Zi poised to strike.

• Tang San’s eighty-first hammer strike collided with Xu Zi’s Purple Gold Dragon Emperor Halberd, blasting both teams from the arena and cracking the ground.
• Tang San knelt and coughed blood, while Xu Zi struggled up despite his wounds and the exhaustion of his dragon origin and Golden Bloodline.
• Xu Zi’s halberd reverted to the Purple Brilliant Heaven Destroying Dragon Martial Soul, so he seized the Purple Sun and began materializing it to continue the fight.
• Tang San nearly collapsed as his spiritual power waned, then heard his father urge him to recall the Clear Sky Hammer Avatar.
• Tang San withdrew the hammer and suffered soul exhaustion, while Xu Zi raised the materialized Purple Sun to hurl at him.

Xu Zi and Tang San fought to a draw after both exhausted themselves, leaving the rivalry unresolved and the next tiebreaker looming. Bibi Dong ordered Xu Zi taken to Pope Hall to recover, while Tang San was carried away by his companions.

• Bibi Dong ordered the healers to take Xu Zi into Pope Hall, while Yu Xiaogang followed Flender and Liu Erlong as they carried Tang San away.

Xu Zi recovered in Pope Hall after exhausting his Martial Soul Origin and Golden Bloodline, while Bibi Dong arranged the coming matches against Shrek. He offered the Ten-Thousand-Year Dragon Scale Fruit to the weakened Purple Brilliant Heaven Destroying Dragon, hoping to secure its help in his future cultivation.

Xu Zi fed the Ten-Thousand-Year Dragon Scale Fruit to the Purple Brilliant Heaven Destroying Dragon Martial Soul and learned that its consciousness was Zi, the first Amethyst Dragon and sister of Jin, the Dragon God. When he asked how to raise his Martial Soul to Dragon King level, Zi rejected the comparison and explained that her bloodline was already above the Dragon Kings.

• Xu Zi gave the Ten-Thousand-Year Dragon Scale Fruit to the Purple Brilliant Heaven Destroying Dragon, and Zi absorbed it instantly.
• Xu Zi asked whether Zi was the Dragon God's elder sister, and she explained that she and Jin were the universe's first Amethyst Dragon and Golden Dragon, born from a purple-gold dragon egg.
• Zi said Jin had been far weaker than her and had joined nine dragon kings and the Tiger King to murder Phoenix and seize the Creation Godhead before bringing her to ruin.
• Xu Zi asked how to strengthen his Martial Soul, using the Light Dragon Clan's advancement toward Holy Dragon King as an example.
• Zi rejected the comparison, called the Nine Great Dragon Kings mongrels for abandoning the Dao of strength, and said Xu Zi's Martial Soul traced directly to her superior bloodline.
