Chapter Summaries

Yang Podi, a martial-arts-loving worker, died after an electric shock and transmigrated into Douluo Continent as the newborn grandson of Yang Wudi of the Breaking Clan. Over the next year, he grew from an infant into a steady-walking toddler while learning about his powerful family and its connections.

• Yang Podi was shocked by a tripped breaker and lost consciousness, then awoke as a newborn in Yang Wudi's arms.
• Yang Podi realized he was the grandson of Yang Wudi, with Yang Zhentian as his father and Niu Jinfeng, Niu Gao's daughter, as his mother.
• Visitors including Bai He, Tai Tan, Niu Gao, Tang Xiao, Tang Hao, and Ah Yin came to see the newborn Yang Podi.
• After half a year, Yang Podi began saying simple words and taking a few steps, delighting Yang Wudi and the rest of his family.
• Yang Podi was weaned, and Yang Zhentian fed him soup made from Soul Beast meat.
• Another half year passed, and Yang Podi could speak clearly and walk steadily while Niu Jinfeng watched over him closely.

At age two, Yang Podi questioned his parents about the Clear Sky Sect and learned that Tang Xiao and Tang Hao were powerful Soul Douluo. He realized the clan’s near-extermination was only a few years away and began considering how to hide from it.

• Yang Podi’s parents told him the Clear Sky Sect had four Titled Douluo and that Tang Xiao and Tang Hao were both Soul Douluo.
• Yang Zhentian explained that Tang Xiao was fifty-six and had returned to the sect, while forty-one-year-old Tang Hao had left with his wife.
• Yang Podi calculated that Tang Hao would become a Titled Douluo soon and that the Clear Sky Sect’s war with Spirit Hall would follow within a few years.
• Yang Podi worried that his family might die in the clan’s coming disaster and decided he needed to find somewhere to hide.

Yang Podi reflected on the Breaking Clan’s losses and the danger of its alliance with Tang San, then focused on preparing himself to protect his clan. As he grew from two to four, he studied Soul Master knowledge and began spear practice, medicinal baths, and physical training while forming a poor opinion of the Clear Sky Sect.

• Yang Podi concluded that the Four Single-Attribute Clans had gained little by joining the Tang Sect and resolved to avoid the Breaking Clan’s future destruction.
• After Yang Podi turned two, his mother arranged for him to learn reading and writing, and he studied books about Martial Souls, Soul Beasts, and Soul Master cultivation.
• Yang Podi learned that most Soul Masters struggled to obtain suitable Soul Rings and reconsidered Yu Xiaogang’s contributions to public knowledge.
• When Yang Podi turned three, Yang Wudi and his father began enforcing daily reading, Soul Breaking Spear training, and medicinal baths prepared by Yang Wudi.
• After Yang Podi turned four, he added frog jumps and running to his routine and observed the arrogance of the Clear Sky Sect, whose true strength was weaker than its reputation suggested.

Five-year-old Yang Podi tried to convince the Breaking Clan that danger was coming and that they should move to Heaven Dou City, but his family dismissed his fears. He slipped out of the clan alone, while Yang Wudi stopped Niu Jinfeng from pursuing him and took out a slip of paper.

• Yang Podi studied a map and decided Heaven Dou City was the best place to protect himself and the Breaking Clan from Spirit Hall.
• Yang Podi warned Yang Wudi that disaster threatened the Breaking Clan, but Yang Wudi insisted the clan would never retreat from danger.
• Yang Podi asked Niu Jinfeng to take him to Heaven Dou City, but she did not believe his warning and offered to take him there for fun later.
• Yang Podi packed clothes, a Soul Breaking Spear, and Gold Soul Coins, then slipped out through the clan's back gate.
• Yang Wudi gathered with Yang Wushuang, Yang Zhentian, Niu Jinfeng, and several elders after learning Yang Podi had left; he stopped Niu Jinfeng from going after him and took out a slip of paper.

After learning that Qian Xunji had left Spirit City with Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, Yang Wudi sent the Breaking Clan’s children to Heaven Dou City in case danger threatened the clan. The convoy departed as Yang Wudi placed the clan on high alert and met with the leaders of the other three clans, who also knew about the news but did not seem concerned.

• Yang Wudi told the clan elders that a spy had reported Qian Xunji had left Spirit City with Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, and said he felt danger might be approaching.
• Yang Wudi ordered Yang Wushuang to escort every child under twelve to Heaven Dou City and told him not to return until the threat had passed.
• Niu Jinfeng caught Yang Podi after he sneaked out, took him home, and told him the clan’s children would all travel together the next day.
• Yang Wushuang led the children and their guardians toward Heaven Dou City while Yang Wudi and the elders watched them leave.
• Yang Wudi ordered the Breaking Clan to gather intelligence and strengthen security, then met with Tai Tan, Niu Gao, and Bai He, who said they had also received similar news.

Yang Podi and his family traveled with the Breaking Clan children to Heaven Dou City, where they settled in one of the clan’s residences. While Yang Podi planned for the coming conflict and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, his parents noticed that he finally seemed able to sleep without fear.

• Yang Podi, his parents, and the Breaking Clan children reached Heaven Dou City after three days on the road, and the guards admitted them after seeing their Clear Sky Sect token and Yang Wushuang’s strength.
• Niu Jinfeng explained that the Breaking Clan owned several residences in the city, and the group settled into a clean but old courtyard house.
• Yang Podi thought through the coming Clear Sky Sect conflict and planned to investigate whether Dugu Bo had occupied the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• Niu Jinfeng noticed Yang Podi sleeping peacefully and told Yang Zhentian that they should stay in Heaven Dou City if it made their son feel safe.
• Yang Zhentian agreed to find a way for the family to live in Heaven Dou City.

Yang Podi toured Heaven Dou City with his mother, Niu Jinfeng, who showed him the capital’s shopping and dining before planning an evening at its auction house and Soul Arena. The chapter left them heading to the auction, with Soul Fighting matches still planned afterward.

• Yang Podi noticed the clan had gathered the younger generation in Heaven Dou City and that Yang Wushuang was enforcing strict daily spear training.
• Niu Jinfeng took Yang Podi sightseeing alone and described the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena, the Heaven Dou Auction House, and the city’s shopping and food.
• Niu Jinfeng took Yang Podi on an afternoon shopping spree, buying clothes, toys, armor, and other items.

• After dinner, Niu Jinfeng told Yang Podi they would visit the Heaven Dou Auction House and then try to catch Soul Fighting matches at the Great Soul Arena.

Niu Jinfeng brought Yang Podi to the Heaven Dou Auction House, where they watched the auction and bought a piece of ten-thousand-year whale glue. The purchase left the crowd wondering about her husband as the auction continued.

• Niu Jinfeng showed her black card at the Heaven Dou Auction House and took Yang Podi to a private box.
• Yang Podi observed the auction house's attendants and venue while Niu Jinfeng explained that she and his grandfather had membership cards.

• Yang Podi urged Niu Jinfeng to buy the whale glue for his father, and she won it for fifty thousand Gold Soul Coins.
• The crowd fell silent and speculated about Niu Jinfeng's husband after seeing her bid on the whale glue.

After the auction, Yang Podi learned from Niu Jinfeng why a thousand-year Soul Bone was valuable to ordinary people but of little use to powerful Soul Masters. They then went to Heaven Dou City's Great Soul Arena, where Niu Jinfeng arranged a private box for a Soul King match.

• The auction's thousand-year Ironclad Bear Right Arm Soul Bone sold for five hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins, and Niu Jinfeng explained its limited usefulness to Yang Podi.

• Niu Jinfeng booked a private box for a one-on-one competitive Soul King match in Soul Fighting Arena Two.
• Niu Jinfeng explained the arena's betting rules and its ties to major powers, including the Clear Sky Sect, before entering the private box with Yang Podi.

Yang Podi watched Earth Overlord and King of Strength fight in the Soul Fighting Arena, then learned from Niu Jinfeng that the Soul Breaking Spear Technique and the Breaking Clan’s combat skills surpassed those of ordinary Soul Masters. The match ended with Earth Overlord’s victory, while Yang Podi left with a clearer sense of the limits and ambitions of the two veteran Soul Kings.

• The host introduced level 56 Earth Overlord and level 57 King of Strength, and the two summoned their Martial Souls before the match.
• Yang Podi watched the Soul Kings clash with Soul Skills and brute strength as the crowd cheered.
• Earth Overlord won the match, though both contestants ended the fight covered in wounds.
• Yang Podi asked Niu Jinfeng about the contestants’ techniques and habit of announcing their Soul Skills, and she explained the Breaking Clan’s combat expertise.
• Niu Jinfeng told Yang Podi that the aging Soul Kings sought resources or recognition to pursue the Soul Saint level, but major sects were unlikely to recruit them and Spirit Hall would demand loyalty.

Yang Podi persuaded his parents to swallow a whole piece of whale rubber, revealing its benefits and urging them to keep the secret. After Yang Zhentian gained a Soul Power level, the family planned to buy more whale rubber without drawing suspicion.

• Yang Podi reflected on the Breaking Clan’s weakness and worried about his grandfather, Yang Wudi, while his parents discussed his purchase of whale rubber.
• Yang Podi told Yang Zhentian and Niu Jinfeng that swallowing a whole piece of whale rubber could benefit Soul Masters and urged them to keep its effects secret.
• Yang Zhentian and Niu Jinfeng disappeared for two days, then returned with improved complexions and reported that Yang Zhentian had advanced to level seventy-two.
• Yang Podi warned his parents not to tell anyone about whale rubber, including Yang Wudi, and suggested they buy more discreetly.
• Niu Jinfeng proposed spreading a rumor that Yang Zhentian needed whale rubber because he was not capable in that department, and Yang Zhentian reluctantly agreed.

After Tang Hao killed Qian Xunji in battle and withdrew from the Clear Sky Sect, Spirit Hall prepared to attack the sect, while the Breaking Clan secured its children in Heaven Dou City. The Clear Sky Sect faced an approaching force of Spirit Hall, allied clans, and the Heaven Dou Empire, heavily outnumbering its defenders.

• Tang Zhen shattered several Soul Rings and clashed with Qian Jun and Jiang Mo’s Ninth Soul Skills, but Demon Bear and Ghost Leopard attacked again and grievously wounded him.

Tang Zhen died after ordering the Clear Sky Sect to withdraw into its ancestral grounds, and Tang Xiao became sect master. Spirit Hall accepted the sect’s retreat but attacked its Four Single-Attribute Clans, which broke out after the Clear Sky Sect refused to shelter them.
