In the Heaven Dou Empire, Du Busi broke through to become a Limit Douluo and began wondering whether another Soul Core method might let him challenge a demigod.

• Elder Song, Yan Shaozhe, and Xuan Zi agreed that Shrek Academy had to compete in the Holy Grail War and prevent outsiders from claiming the Sea God position.

Bai Xiuxiu awakened as a Master in the Holy Grail War and met her summoned Servant, Sik Ke. After Sik Ke offered to train her rather than take revenge for her, Bai Xiuxiu refined her mother’s Shark Pearl, broke through the hundred-thousand-year threshold, and took human form.

• The Earth Vein drew abundant Negative Energy from the Demon Shark Sea Domain, and Bai Xiuxiu summoned the golden-legend Servant Sik Ke.
