Lin Rong studied the Sacred Dragon Sect before the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Second Team’s match and suspected its captain, Tuoba Sheng, had inherited the Earth God’s legacy. He predicted the Second Team would lose, but refused Ning Fengzhi’s suggestion to move Miss Yun onto its roster, preferring to avoid attracting attention.

• Lin Rong reviewed information about the Sacred Dragon Sect and questioned Ning Fengzhi about its captain, Tuoba Sheng.
• Ning Fengzhi explained that Tuoba Sheng was the twenty-year-old youngest son of sect leader Tuoba Xi and had remained out of public view since age six.

• Eat Drink Team fielded three main members and four substitutes against Star Crown Sect Second Team because two of its main members were unable to compete.

Elephant Armor Sect Team faced the obscure Void Team, whose captains, Luo Minghua and Xu Keming, revealed they were both Soul Emperors. The teams unleashed their powerful combined abilities, leaving the match poised for a clash between Hu Yanli’s giant form and the Void Nether General.

• Hu Yan Zhen urged his grandson Hu Yanli to use a powerful move against Void Team, while Luo Minghua overheard and decided to use a move with Xu Keming.
• After the match began, Hu Yanli and his six teammates revealed their Diamond Mammoth martial souls, and Luo Minghua and Xu Keming revealed their Soul Emperor ranks.

• Luo Minghua and Xu Keming combined their powers into the Martial Soul Fusion Skill Void Nether General.

Hu Yanli’s seven-person fusion faced off against Void Nether General, whose spatially cutting scythe wounded Hu Yanli but could not penetrate his diamond defense. Xu Keming empowered the scythe with the Darkness Divine Artifact Fallen Demon Feathers and prepared to use a Self-Created Soul Skill.

• The emcee announced that the tournament had already featured three Martial Soul Fusion Skills and introduced the clash between Hu Yanli’s seven-person fusion and Void Nether General.
• Hu Yanli decided to defend and counterattack, relying on the Diamond Mammoth’s strength and his fused body’s defenses.
• Void Nether General cut open a spatial rift and attacked Hu Yanli through it, slicing through his keratin layer but getting stopped by a hidden layer of diamond.
• Luo Minghua proposed using a divine artifact to overcome Hu Yanli’s rule-type defense, but Xu Keming chose to empower the scythe with his Darkness Divine Artifact Fallen Demon Feathers.
• Void Nether General’s scythe took on an unfathomable darkness, and the fused voices announced that they would let Hu Yanli witness their Self-Created Soul Skill.

The Void Team defeated the Elephant Armor Sect Team after the Void Nether General overwhelmed Hu Yanli, who faked a collapse to avoid conceding. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Second Team then prepared to face Sacred Dragon Sect, unaware that the match would be a loss.

• The Void Nether General used a high-speed spinning technique to bend light and become invisible, then wounded Hu Yanli repeatedly with the Dark Demon Scythe.
• Hu Yanli’s Diamond Defense failed against the scythe, and the Void Nether General warned him to concede or risk being seriously injured.

Tuoba Sheng revealed his full-body Dragon Transformation and faced Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Second Team, whose captain trusted their Soul King lineup and support. Bibi Dong ordered Tuoba Xi to adopt Yu Xiaogang’s name for Tuoba Sheng’s mutated martial soul, the Bright Jade Sacred Dragon, just as the match was about to begin.

• Hu Yan Zhen grew furious when Tuoba Xi boasted that his son surpassed Hu Yan Zhen’s grandson.
• Tuoba Sheng released his martial soul and transformed into a jade-scaled dragon-man, stunning the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
• Guang Yue explained that Dragon Transformation came from pure dragon bloodlines, then tested Yu Xiaogang by asking for Tuoba Sheng’s martial soul’s name.
• Yu Xiaogang named the mutated martial soul the Bright Jade Sacred Dragon, and Bibi Dong ordered Tuoba Xi to use that name from then on.
• The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect captain assessed Tuoba Sheng’s Soul Emperor rank but remained confident that his team’s Soul Kings and support would win.

Tuoba Sheng unveiled his evolved Earth God Dragon martial soul and battled the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Second Team in the arena. He used the swamp their attacks had created to transform the whole arena, but his own teammates pointed out that they were trapped by the terrain too.

• Tuoba Sheng declared that he would show the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan what a true dragon martial soul was.
• The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Second Team amplified its fighters and targeted the Sacred Dragon Sect's four Soul Ancestors instead of Tuoba Sheng.
• Tuoba Sheng stacked three amplification skills and unleashed Ground Splitting Dragon Roar, while two opponents combined their fifth soul skills to counter it.
• The teams' attacks ended in a draw, leaving a swamp in the center of the arena.
• Tuoba Sheng used Earth Dragon Turns Over to spread the swamp across the arena and realized too late that his teammates could not move through it either.

Tuoba Sheng led the Sacred Dragon Sect Team to victory by trapping the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Second Team in his swamp. Afterward, Lin Rong arranged for Dai Weisi to be rescued and backed in the succession struggle, giving his agents a Fruit of Life to restore him; meanwhile, Zhu Zhuyun tried to keep Dai Mubai’s favor.

• Tuoba Sheng's swamp hindered both the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Second Team and his own teammates, but the referee declared the Sacred Dragon Sect Team the winner.
• Lin Rong met Yun Gui, Ye Lingling, the Star Luo Royal Academy Second Team, Salas, and Seahorse Douluo outside Spirit City and asked whether Dai Weisi was alive.
• After learning Dai Weisi had been crippled and imprisoned, Lin Rong ordered the seven Star Luo students to rescue him and help him reclaim the throne, with Salas and Seahorse Douluo supporting them.
• Lin Rong gave the seven a Fruit of Life, explaining that it could restore Dai Weisi and improve his talent but would prevent him from ever becoming a god.
• Zhu Zhuyun tried to please Dai Mubai, fearing that he might return to Zhu Zhuqing and leave her vulnerable to the Star Luo succession rules.

Dai Mubai used Zhu Zhuyun as a stand-in for Zhu Zhuqing while complaining about his rivals, and Yan Mo and Wang Shiyu discussed a divine power tied to love and moonlight. After learning about the Holy Light Team, Lin Rong suspected Wang Shiyu had inherited the Butterfly God’s legacy and Yan Mo might possess the Light Phoenix and the Phoenix God’s legacy.

• Dai Mubai praised Wang Shiyu’s beauty to Zhu Zhuyun, then asked her to imitate Zhu Zhuqing while he voiced his jealousy of stronger Divine Legacy inheritors.
• Yan Mo found Wang Shiyu on the rooftop, where she told him she had sensed love-related divine power tied to moonlight in the soul arena.
• Yan Mo and Wang Shiyu discussed their upcoming match against Earth Dragon Gate and the possibility that Tuoba Sheng had an earth-related Divine Legacy.
• Lin Rong obtained information about Holy Light Team’s captain Yan Mo and vice-captain Wang Shiyu from Ning Fengzhi.
• Lin Rong concluded that Wang Shiyu likely possessed the Light Goddess Butterfly and Butterfly God’s legacy, while Yan Mo might have the Light Phoenix martial soul and Phoenix God’s legacy.

Yan Mo and Wang Shiyu entered their knockout match against the Earth Dragon Gate Team without revealing their powers, prompting others to suspect they were Soul Emperors. They used a Martial Soul Fusion Skill to summon a divine woman in golden light, leaving Lin Rong to wonder what the technique was.

• Yan Mo reassured Wang Shiyu about the gloomy weather and suggested they use a move together.
• The Holy Light Team faced the Earth Dragon Gate Team, whose seven members included three Soul Kings and four Soul Ancestors.
• Spectators and Earth Dragon Gate Team members speculated that Yan Mo and Wang Shiyu were both Soul Emperors because they had not released their martial souls.
• At the end of the preparation period, Yan Mo and Wang Shiyu released six spirit rings each and unleashed a golden pillar of light.
• A beautiful woman wreathed in rosy light appeared from the golden radiance, and Lin Rong wondered if she resembled the Goddess's Attire fusion technique.

Yan Mo and Wang Shiyu revealed their golden Light Phoenix and Light Goddess Butterfly Martial Soul Fusion Skill, forcing the Earth Dragon Gate Team to concede. Their display drew Bibi Dong’s intent to kill them and Qian Renxue’s orders to protect and recruit them, while Wang Shiyu focused on reaching Soul Saint rank before the finals.

• Yan Mo and Wang Shiyu unleashed a radiant Martial Soul Fusion Skill that manifested as a Goddess of Light riding a golden phoenix.
• Nan Miao, captain of the Earth Dragon Gate Team, asked the fusion skill’s name, then conceded the match when the Goddess of Light did not answer.
• Bibi Dong recognized the pair as a threat and secretly ordered Guang Yue and Ghostly to act against them.
• Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, told Uncle Snake and Uncle Porcupine to have her grandfather protect Yan Mo and Wang Shiyu from Bibi Dong’s moves.
• After the match, Wang Shiyu turned her attention to breaking through the rank seventy bottleneck so the Holy Light Team could contend for the championship.

After Earth Dragon Gate Team’s concession set a precedent, more teams forfeited rather than face overwhelming opponents, while Lin Rong considered the Divine Legacy inheritors among the teams advancing. He left the chapter anticipating second-round clashes between inheritors and worrying that teams under his influence might draw one another.

• After Earth Dragon Gate Team conceded, two more teams voluntarily forfeited matches against much stronger opponents.
• Wind Fire Team’s Feng Xiaotian revealed that he was a Soul Saint, and his team’s opponents conceded.
• Wind Thunder Team advanced with an all-Soul King lineup, while Lin Rong noticed that later competing teams had no fighters above Soul King level.
• Lin Rong tallied the thirty-two Divine Legacies and concluded that Eat Drink Team had four inheritors.
• Lin Rong noted that twelve of the twenty-two teams entering the second round had Divine Legacy inheritors, making clashes between them inevitable.
• Lin Rong worried that the six teams under him could draw one another in the second round and recognized that the order of the draw would matter.

Lin Rong learned that Qian Daoliu’s authority over Spirit Hall’s worshippers forced Bibi Dong to abandon her plan against Yan Mo and Wang Shiyu. The next day, Xue Qinghe discovered that Bibi Dong had removed the Six-winged Angel statues from Spirit City and decided to ask Qian Daoliu to restore them.

• Guang Yue explained to Lin Rong that Qian Daoliu could punish Spirit Hall worshippers, while Bibi Dong could not, and that Bibi Dong had likely guessed Qian Renxue was behind his intervention.
• Lin Rong concluded that Bibi Dong had given up on moving against Yan Mo and Wang Shiyu rather than risk a conflict with Qian Daoliu.
• At the tournament’s drawing ceremony, people noticed an empty patch in the Soul Arena and struggled to remember what had stood there.
• Xue Qinghe realized Bibi Dong had ordered the Six-winged Angel statues removed from Spirit City and resolved to ask Qian Daoliu to have them restored.

Lin Rong ordered Ghostly to secretly alter the Angel Statues in Spirit City by hiding Rakshasa faces inside them. The first altered statue began corrupting the Angel Lineage’s power of faith, and Bibi Dong received a reward that made her Rakshasa trials easier.

• After hearing that Bibi Dong had restored the Angel Statues, Lin Rong ordered Guang Yue to have Ghostly hide Rakshasa heads inside them.
• At midnight, Ghostly carved a Rakshasa face modeled on Bibi Dong and concealed it inside the first Angel Statue.
• The altered statue tainted some of the power of faith flowing to the Six-winged Angel, though Qian Daoliu noticed nothing unusual.
• Bibi Dong received a message that the Angel Lineage had been corroded, increasing her Rakshasa Affinity and halving the difficulty of the Rakshasa Eight Trials.
• Bibi Dong decided to skip the Rakshasa Legacy Space for the night and celebrate her unexpected reward.

Qian Renxue meditated under growing tournament pressure as a dark change began to spread across her angel mark. At the tournament, Heaven Dou Royal Team Two advanced after its opponents conceded, while the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and Star Crown Sect began a high-stakes match between two seed teams.

• Qian Renxue woke from meditation, blamed her distracting thoughts on pressure, and failed to notice a spot on her angel mark turning black-gold.
• Heaven Dou Royal Team Two drew the first match of the second elimination round, and its Star Luo Empire opponents conceded when they faced Tang San’s Soul Saint strength.
• The Wind Fire Team and Sea God Team also advanced after their opponents conceded, leaving three of the day’s four matches without a contest.
• The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan Seed Team and Star Crown Sect Seed Team faced each other as the first two seed teams to meet, drawing a divided audience and two referees from their respective empires.
• Both teams released their martial souls and Soul Rings, revealing that all fourteen fighters were Soul Kings; Yu Tianheng led the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan team at level fifty-seven, while Yu Tianxin was level fifty-four.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Star Crown Sect began their match, each relying on its signature power despite the limits of lightning and Star Power. The Blue Lightning team’s fused attack nearly broke Star Guardian, but the Star Crown team replenished its defense with Star Power, leaving the assault stalled.

• Lin Rong favored the Star Crown Sect because he felt an affinity with its star martial souls.
• Yu Tianheng ordered the Blue Lightning team to begin its plan as the match started, while the Star Crown team formed a defensive formation.
• Yu Tianheng led all seven Blue Lightning fighters in amplifying their lightning, transforming dragon wings, and unleashing seven coordinated Dragon’s Wraths.
• The Star Crown team activated Star Guardian, and its Stellar Light Screen withstood the fused lightning dragon for seven seconds.
• The Blue Lightning fighters saw Star Guardian nearly collapse, but a Star Crown member fed Star Power into the central crown and restored its radiance.

Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin unleashed their soul-bone skills in a last-ditch attempt to defeat the Star Crown Sect, while the sect poured its Star Power into a powerful defense. As Star Guardian withstood the assault and its power rapidly dwindled, the Star Crown captain activated a rare skill to restore the team’s Star Power.

• Yu Luomian ordered Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin to abandon the fight for victory and use their final plan to take the Star Crown Sect down with them.
• The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan’s five teammates transferred their remaining soul power to Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin, while the Star Crown Sect’s members fed their Star Power into the captain’s Star Guardian.
• Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin used their torso and head soul-bone skills, draining their soul power to launch two powerful thunder dragons at Star Guardian.
• Star Guardian endured the attacks, though the Star Crown Sect’s Star Power was rapidly consumed, and the captain decided to use his fifth soul skill, Star Tracing Back.
• The Star Crown captain activated Star Tracing Back, a ten-thousand-year skill that restored the Star Power stored in Star Crown martial spirits within range.

The Star Crown Sect defeated the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan in the tournament, giving Bibi Dong a chance to weaken the Seven Great Sects’ prestige. That night, as the defeated clan left Spirit City, Ghostly and a masked man prepared to attack their convoy.

• Xu Cheng Mian’s Star Crown Sect team exhausted the twin thunder dragons’ power and defeated the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan team.
• The referees declared the Star Crown Sect the winner, and Bibi Dong saw the defeat as an opportunity to rally support for reselecting the Seven Great Sects.
• The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan surrendered its Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone and left Spirit City under cover of night.
• Yu Tianxin and two others sensed an unnatural chill in the convoy, but Yu Luomian found nothing unusual outside.
• Ghostly and a masked man agreed to attack the convoy and split the spoils, while the man concealed his identity.
