• Gu Tianyu noticed Ning Chuan's torn shirt and Qin Ya wiping away sweat, then began to draw the wrong conclusion.

Gu Tianyu asked Ning Chuan to enter the Ninety-Nine Administrative Regions' Chosen Battle so Lu Zhan could leave Qingshan City as his guardian. Ning Chuan planned to use inheritance slots for the Spirit Forging Meditation Method to persuade the Heavenly Kings to resolve Lu Zhan’s family conflict, and the chapter ended with Heavenly Kings arriving to compete for the method’s limited slots.

After completing the Spirit Forging Meditation Method, Ning Chuan invited representatives of the Lin and Wang families to negotiate about Lu Zhan, Wang Ya, and Lu Mengyue's family. He offered free inheritance for Heavenly Kings Lin Fengyang and Wang Zheng in exchange for lifting their family's punishment, and Wang Kun and Lin Xiaoyun were startled by the proposal.

• News that Ning Chuan had completed the Spirit Forging Meditation Method stirred the campus as people discussed the coming inheritance-slot allocation.
• Ning Chuan learned that Heavenly King Lin Fengyang and Heavenly King Wang Zheng could not attend, and that Lin Xiaoyun and Wang Kun would represent them.
• Ning Chuan invited Lin Xiaoyun and Wang Kun to meet him, and the two arrived together at the Supreme Hall's headquarters.
• Ning Chuan offered Lin Fengyang and Wang Zheng free Spirit Forging Meditation Method inheritances in exchange for lifting the punishment on Lu Zhan, Wang Ya, and Lu Mengyue's family.
• Lin Xiaoyun questioned whether Ning Chuan had authority to make the offer, and Wang Kun saw the potential benefit for the Wang Family.

Lin Xiaoyun and Wang Kun secretly plotted to deceive Ning Chuan into giving them inheritance slots for the Spirit Forging Meditation Method. They returned claiming Lin Fengyang had agreed to release Lu Zhan and his family under strict conditions, while demanding two slots immediately.

• Lin Xiaoyun and Wang Kun decided to scheme for inheritance slots, reasoning that Ning Chuan would not be able to retaliate against them if they left no evidence.
• Lin Xiaoyun explained that their plan depended on deceiving Ning Chuan and denying everything if he exposed them, while Wang Kun agreed to help.
• After rehearsing their story, Lin Xiaoyun and Wang Kun returned to Ning Chuan and falsely claimed Lin Fengyang had agreed to release Lu Zhan and his family after two or three months.
• Lin Xiaoyun demanded that Ning Chuan keep the agreement secret, make a martial oath, and provide two inheritance slots immediately using a single-use Martial Seal.
• Wang Kun pretended he could not guarantee his ancestor's agreement and said he would join the next day's auction, as the two men prepared to take the inheritance and deny their scheme.

Ning Chuan suspected Lin Xiaoyun and Wang Kun had deceived him about Lin Fengyang’s approval of a deal involving the Spirit Forging Meditation Method. After using his Mind-Reading Art to expose their plot, he confronted them, but they denied the agreement and tried to frame him.

• Ning Chuan agreed to provide Lin Xiaoyun and Wang Kun with copies of the Spirit Forging Meditation Method and retrieved its Martial Seal from Wei Chen.
• While copying the Martial Seals, Ning Chuan realized Lin Xiaoyun and Wang Kun might be acting without Lin Fengyang’s approval.
• Ning Chuan returned with the copies and used his Mind-Reading Art on Lin Xiaoyun while the three men swore martial dao oaths.
• Ning Chuan learned from Lin Xiaoyun’s thoughts that he and Wang Kun had conspired to obtain the method, then demanded to speak with Lin Fengyang.
• Lin Xiaoyun and Wang Kun denied the deal and claimed Ning Chuan had approached them for a kickback, prompting Ning Chuan to call them shameless.

Lin Xiaoyun tried to pressure Ning Chuan into handing over the Spirit Forging Meditation Method by threatening Lu Zhan, so Ning Chuan destroyed the Martial Seals and nearly killed him. When the Heavenly Kings arrived, Wang Kun offered to testify for Ning Chuan in exchange for inheriting the method, but Ning Chuan rejected him and warned that he would be next.

• Lin Xiaoyun threatened that Lu Zhan would be conscripted and suggested he could persuade his brother to spare him if his own spiritual power improved.

• The Heavenly Kings arrived, and Wang Kun offered to testify that Lin Xiaoyun had threatened Ning Chuan in exchange for inheriting the method.
• Ning Chuan warned Wang Kun that he would be next, while a Heavenly King urged him to release the nearly dead Lin Xiaoyun.

After Lin Xiaoyun falsely accused Ning Chuan of attacking him for a kickback, Wei Chen exposed the lie and let Ning Chuan choose his punishment. The Heavenly Kings upheld Ning Chuan’s decision, and the next morning they gathered to bid for places inheriting the Spirit Forging Meditation Method.

• Zhang Tao arrived and identified the injured Lin Xiaoyun as a powerful Second Heaven Divine General, while Wang Kun denied knowing why the two men had fought.
• Lin Xiaoyun claimed Ning Chuan attacked him over a kickback, but Wei Chen said Ning Chuan was entitled to all the rewards and forced Lin Xiaoyun to admit he had framed Ning Chuan after losing a spar.
• Ning Chuan asked that Lin Xiaoyun lose the right to compete for an inheritance place, and the gathered Heavenly Kings agreed despite Lin Xiaoyun's protest.
• Lin Xiaoyun spat blood and fell unconscious, while Ning Chuan flew away.
• The next morning, Wei Chen explained that the thirty inheritance places would be auctioned one at a time, with each person allowed one bid per round.

Ning Chuan judged the Heavenly Kings’ bids for places in the Spirit Forging Meditation Method inheritance, selecting rewards according to his own needs and leaving Wang Kun empty-handed. After Wang Kun accused him of bias, Ning Chuan demonstrated his strength by pressing him down with the Non-Annihilation Mystic Truth.

• Wei Chen announced that Ning Chuan would decide whose rewards were greatest, and Bai Qi’s representative opened the bidding with Divine Metal Liquid, weapon martial arts, expert notes, and Sacred Heart Flowers.
• Ye Wuchen and the other Great River Realm Heavenly Kings secured places, after which the remaining Heavenly Kings competed more fiercely.
• Ning Chuan chose Liu Wan’s bid, valuing her Bright Shield, while Wang Kun’s richer offer was passed over.
• Ning Chuan continued selecting other winners, and Wang Kun objected that Ning Chuan was punishing him for their earlier conflict and harming Wang Zheng’s bid.
• Ning Chuan said Wang Kun’s Spirit Heart Platform was useless to him because he never found comprehending Mystic Truths and Laws difficult, then unleashed the Non-Annihilation Mystic Truth against him.

Ning Chuan used his Mystic Truth to silence Wang Kun’s objections, then manipulated the auction so Wang Kun had to pay an enormous price for Wang Zheng’s spot. The thirty Spirit Forging Meditation Method spots sold out before ten in the morning, leaving the successful bidders pleased and Ning Chuan thinking ahead to the Divine Wave Meditation Method.

• Ning Chuan demonstrated a Mystic Truth fused from at least four Mystic Truths, shocking the Heavenly Kings and making Wang Kun withdraw his accusations and apologize.
• Wang Kun asked whether Divine Metal Liquid and martial arts could secure a spot for Wang Zheng, and Ning Chuan confirmed they could while privately deciding to make Wang Kun pay far more than other bidders.
• Wang Kun offered increasingly large bids but failed to win, then complained that Ning Chuan was targeting him; Ning Chuan denied ever promising otherwise and demanded ten thousand grams of Divine Metal Liquid.
• After other Heavenly Kings rebuked Wang Kun for disrupting the auction, he paid Ning Chuan’s demanded price and secured a spot as Wang Zheng’s representative.
• Ning Chuan sold all thirty spots before ten in the morning, and the successful bidders handed over their rewards while he reflected that they might be less disappointed once they learned about the Divine Wave Meditation Method.

Ning Chuan welcomed Qiu Kai back and learned that Qiu Kai had destroyed his avatar while saving him from an attempted assassination by an unidentified Heavenly King. Ning Chuan gave Qiu Kai a matching wonder of heaven and earth, a ton of Spirit-Nourishing Liquid, and a Divine Wave Meditation Method, leaving the other Heavenly Kings to suspect the method was exceptionally powerful.

• Qiu Kai returned to Wei Chen's residence in a weakened state and explained that he had self-destructed his avatar to stop a Heavenly King from assassinating Ning Chuan.
• The Heavenly Kings debated the attacker's identity, and Wei Chen said the foreign races were the likeliest suspects while he, Bai Qi, Ye Wuchen, and others continued investigating in secret.
• Qiu Kai learned that the Heavenly Kings had gathered to bid for slots to inherit Ning Chuan's Spirit Forging Meditation Method, but all thirty slots had already been sold.
• Ning Chuan gave Qiu Kai the Bright Shield, a wonder of heaven and earth suited to his Law, while admitting he had not prepared a Spirit Forging Meditation Method slot for him.
• Wei Chen revealed that Ning Chuan had prepared the Divine Wave Meditation Method for Qiu Kai, and Ning Chuan offered him a ton of Spirit-Nourishing Liquid to aid his recovery.
• Qiu Kai accepted a portion of the Spirit-Nourishing Liquid, and the Heavenly Kings inferred that Ning Chuan's Divine Wave Meditation Method might be at least as powerful as the Spirit Forging Meditation Method.

Ning Chuan revealed that the Divine Wave Meditation Method was a God Grade High Stage technique and agreed to trade inheritances with the Heavenly Kings. After receiving a Dao Fruit and other treasures, he left after refusing to trade with Wang Zheng because of Wang Kun’s behavior.

• Ning Chuan told the Heavenly Kings that the Divine Wave Meditation Method was God Grade High Stage, prompting Qiu Kai and others to celebrate his inheritance.

• Ye Wuchen offered Ning Chuan a Dao Fruit, which Ning Chuan accepted in exchange for one inheritance opportunity.
• The Heavenly Kings offered treasures for inheritances, and Ning Chuan selected items at values appraised by Wei Chen.
• Ning Chuan refused to trade with Wang Zheng because of Wang Kun’s behavior, ignored Wang Kun’s offer to help identify Lin Xiaoyun, and flew away.
• Wei Chen distributed the prepared Martial Seals, and most of the Heavenly Kings left satisfied with their trades.

Ning Chuan used the Dao Fruit while cultivating on the Spirit Heart Platform, and its insights accelerated his martial arts and Mystic Truths. He ended the chapter with nearly seven thousand Divine Weapons and the Ultimate Weapon Art and Divine Treasury of Ten Thousand Weapons progressing toward perfection.

• Ning Chuan examined his auction gains and planned how to allocate Divine Metal Liquid among his Divine Weapons.
• Ning Chuan inherited over a thousand weapon martial arts, then used Dao Comprehension Tea Leaves and Holy Heart Liquid to aid his comprehension.

• Ning Chuan gained twenty-five distinct Mystic Truths, with his comprehension of most above seventy percent.
• Ning Chuan checked his progress and saw the Ultimate Weapon Art at 70% and the Divine Treasury of Ten Thousand Weapons at 75%.

Ning Chuan advanced the Nine-Wheel Method and became a Knight, but his fifth Force Wheel proved unstable. After testing his new strength and flight speed, he went to Qin Ya’s estate and sensed something happening in her bedroom.

• Ning Chuan realized the Divine Treasury of Ten Thousand Weapons might let him command more than a thousand Mystic Truths, though he could not confirm the theory yet.
• Ning Chuan tempered all eighty-one Force Apertures with Heavenly Primal Liquid and began condensing Force Wheels using the Nine-Wheel Method.
• Ning Chuan endured severe pain as he formed four Force Wheels and became a Knight, but his fifth wheel remained unstable and added little strength.
• Ning Chuan activated the Eight Heavenly Gates, raised his Force twelvefold, and flew at up to four times the speed of sound to Qin Ya’s estate.
• Ning Chuan used the Heavenly Derivation Art to see inside Qin Ya’s bedroom, then smiled at what he sensed.

Ning Chuan teased Qin Ya before asking Ye Qingwu about forming Force Wheels, and Ye Qingwu hinted that willpower was crucial while warning him away from the Nine-Wheel Method. At breakfast, Zi Yun'er announced that the Federation Knight Rankings had been released.

• Qin Ya let Ning Chuan into the villa after he teased her about the Dragon-Phoenix Flower's lingering effects.
• Ning Chuan told Ye Qingwu he had formed four Force Wheels but could not solidify the fifth.
• Ye Qingwu advised Ning Chuan to abandon the Nine-Wheel Method, then hinted that willpower was crucial before withdrawing her consciousness.
• Qin Ya offered to get the answer from Ye Qingwu, and she and Ning Chuan went to breakfast together.
• Zi Yun'er rushed into the dining room and announced that the Federation Knight Rankings were out.

The Federation Knight Rankings placed Ning Chuan forty-ninth, and Qin Ya and Zi Yun'er objected to the ranking and Lin Longxing's assessment of his strength. As Lin Longxing defended the decision at a press conference, a reporter challenged him over Ning Chuan's victory against Lin Xiaoyun.

• Qin Ya and Zi Yun'er showed Ning Chuan his forty-ninth-place ranking and criticized Lin Longxing's claim that he could not defeat a first-heaven Divine General with a Fourth-Grade Law.
• Ning Chuan declined Qin Ya's offer to file an objection, saying he would reveal his strength and make Lin Longxing lose face.
• Qin Ya told Ning Chuan that Lu Zhan ranked first and the Sirius Knight ranked second, and criticized the Sirius Knight for his behavior.
• Public anger over Ning Chuan's ranking spread, prompting the judging panel to hold a press conference where Lin Longxing defended his assessment.
• A reporter pointed out that Ning Chuan had crushed Lin Xiaoyun, a second-heaven Divine General with a Fourth-Grade Law, and Lin Longxing claimed his brother had been ambushed.

After Lin Longxing publicly portrayed Ning Chuan as a coward, Ning Chuan decided to confront the Lin brothers in the Chosen Battle and build his strength by condensing more Force Wheels. Before he could act, Heavenly King Lin Fengyang arrived at Galaxy University demanding to know why Ning Chuan had revoked his place to obtain a mental power cultivation method, and Ning Chuan challenged his worth as a protector of the Federation.

• Lin Longxing used a live broadcast to claim Ning Chuan had sneak-attacked Lin Xiaoyun because he feared losing, while avoiding mention of why Ning Chuan had attacked.
• Ning Chuan rejected Qin Ya and Zi Yun'er's suggestion that he answer with a press conference and said he would challenge the Lin brothers in the Chosen Battle.
• Ning Chuan told Qin Ya that condensing more Force Wheels would give him enough power to defeat Lin Longxing, then kept Ye Qingwu's existence secret from Zi Yun'er.
• Lin Fengyang and Lin Xiaoyun arrived at Galaxy University, where Wei Chen and Qin Lang confronted the Heavenly King as Ning Chuan came out to meet them.
• Lin Fengyang demanded an explanation for losing his place to obtain the mental power cultivation method, and Ning Chuan said he had revoked it before questioning Lin Fengyang's record as a protector of the Federation.

Ning Chuan rejected Lin Fengyang’s claim to a spiritual power cultivation method inheritance slot, then challenged Lin Xiaoyun to a fight to the death over the brothers’ accusations and Lin Fengyang’s punishment. He set the fight for three hours later and arranged for major Federation media to broadcast it live so he could expose the Lin brothers publicly.

• Ning Chuan told Lin Fengyang he would cancel his inheritance slot because he chose to, and Wei Chen confirmed Ning Chuan had authority to do so.
