Dai Mubai, Zhao Wuji, and Flender investigated a stampede and found a Heavenly Dipper Bug leading a swarm of Scout Bugs. Dai Mubai recognized the Heavenly Dipper Bug as an ideal source for his White Tiger Martial Soul’s first defensive Soul Ring, though the chapter ended before they confronted it.

Dai Mubai demonstrated the power of his two First Soul Ring skills, then recovered before absorbing the Holy Light Tiger’s six-thousand-year Soul Ring. He succeeded in gaining an ordinary single Soul Skill, but the Demonic Weapon Tiger Soul Martial Soul showed no special devouring power.

• Dai Mubai’s White Tiger Mountain-Shaking Charge forced Zhao Wuji back five steps despite his Immovable Bright King Body.

Dai Mubai argued that his strength could let him absorb it as his Third Soul Ring, while Flender warned that its Soul Shock could damage his mind, leaving the group at odds over whether to attack it.

• Flender and Zhao Wuji discovered that the Diamond Tiger they had found was a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, too old for Dai Mubai’s Third Soul Ring under normal standards.
• Dai Mubai insisted that the tiger was suitable and cited the unusually high ages of his first two Soul Rings to support his reasoning.
• Flender explained that Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts could inflict a Soul Shock through their rings, risking severe damage to Dai Mubai’s soul.
• Flender and Zhao Wuji urged Dai Mubai to seek a younger Diamond Tiger instead of risking the ten-thousand-year ring.

Dai Mubai explained that his mutated Evil Eye White Tiger had given him the spiritual strength to withstand a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, then revealed that he was the Star Luo Empire’s Third Prince. He described the deadly succession contest that forced him to flee and said he needed the Diamond Tiger’s Soul Ring to fight for his life, leaving Flender and Zhao Wuji to consider his plea for help.

• Dai Mubai said his Martial Soul mutation gave him hope of escaping his fate, but he had to take risks because his eighteenth birthday was less than five years away.
• Dai Mubai solemnly asked Flender and Zhao Wuji to help him hunt the Ten-Thousand-Year Diamond Tiger and absorb its Soul Ring, and they fell silent after hearing his reasons.

Flender and Zhao Wuji pledged to support Dai Mubai in his struggle for the Star Luo throne, and Dai Mubai promised to repay them and strengthen Shrek Academy if he became emperor.

Dai Mubai let the Diamond Tiger's soul pass into reincarnation, but a speck of light from the passage merged into his heart. In a divine palace, a holy woman and her white-haired lover discovered that Dai Mubai had gained an affinity with her godhood and was unusually compatible with both of their divine inheritances.

• Dai Mubai chose not to devour or enslave the Diamond Tiger's benevolent soul and let it enter reincarnation through a gate opened by the Demonic Weapon Tiger Soul.
• A tiny speck of light flew from the closing reincarnation passage and merged into Dai Mubai's heart, leaving him wary of its unknown purpose.
• The Demonic Weapon Tiger Soul's passage to reincarnation attracted the attention of a holy black-haired woman in a divine realm above Douluo Star.
• The holy woman revealed that Dai Mubai had touched her authority over reincarnation and absorbed a seed from the Heart of Goodness, giving him an affinity with her godhood.
• The white-haired man in black suggested considering Dai Mubai as an heir, and the holy woman said he was even more compatible with his godhood than with hers.

Two gods in the Douluo God Realm discovered Dai Mubai’s twin god-level Martial Souls and discussed making him heir to both their godhoods despite the rule against one person holding multiple godhoods. They decided to gamble on finding a way, while Dai Mubai remained unaware as he absorbed the Diamond Tiger’s Soul Ring.

• The white-haired man in black examined Dai Mubai and recognized the good-and-evil potential in his Evil Eye White Tiger and the power of his second Martial Soul, Tiger Soul.
• The man in black worried that the God Realm’s laws allowed a god to inherit only one godhood, preventing Dai Mubai from inheriting both theirs.
• The holy woman in white argued that Dai Mubai could unite their godhoods and help preserve balance against Destruction and Life, and urged the man in black to take a chance with her.
• The man in black agreed to gamble alongside the holy woman, who declared that neither of them would lose.
• Dai Mubai continued absorbing the ten-thousand-year Diamond Tiger Soul Ring, unaware that two gods had chosen him as a potential heir, and soon became excited by the gains.

Dai Mubai obtained the ten-thousand-year Diamond Tiger’s Soul Skill, [White Tiger Vajra Body], a stackable all-attribute enhancement with prolonged super armor. The Diamond Tiger also left him a precious External Soul Bone, which Dai Mubai believed resulted from its sacrifice-like gratitude after he freed its soul.

• Dai Mubai compared [White Tiger Vajra Body] with [White Tiger Vajra Transformation] and recognized that the new skill enhanced all attributes rather than just attack, defense, and strength.
• He learned that [White Tiger Vajra Body] could stack up to five times, granting a 250% increase to all attributes, and could protect him with super armor for half an hour.
• Dai Mubai considered how the skill could let him challenge stronger opponents and imagined how it might have changed Tang San’s battle against Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue.
• He discovered that the Diamond Tiger had also dropped an External Soul Bone.
• Dai Mubai suspected the Soul Bone resulted from the Diamond Tiger’s extreme suffering before death and its gratitude after he purified its resentment and sent its soul to reincarnation.

Flender worried that Dai Mubai’s exceptional talent and royal identity would make him a target for powerful factions, while Zhao Wuji recalled the dangers he had faced as an unsupported Soul Master. After Dai Mubai awoke from absorbing his Soul Ring, Flender hurried everyone back toward Shrek Academy, leaving Zhao Wuji to argue with him over wages and promised wine.

• Flender warned Zhao Wuji that Dai Mubai’s talent and status as the Star Luo Empire’s third prince could provoke assassination attempts from rivals and powerful factions.

• Zhao Wuji celebrated their return and his promised wine, prompting Flender to threaten a six-month pay deduction.
• Zhao Wuji demanded the wages Flender had withheld for more than ten years, and Flender turned away and walked out of the forest in silence.

After Dai Mubai absorbed a ten-thousand-year Third Soul Ring, Flender worried that his talent and royal identity could put him in danger. Dai Mubai weighed returning to the Star Luo Empire and decided Shrek Academy could move with him, though he had not yet made a final choice.

• Dai Mubai compared staying in the Heaven Dou Empire with returning to the Star Luo Empire, concluding that his new talent made the empire's protection and resources more appealing.
• Dai Mubai reasoned that Shrek Academy's unusual, unlicensed status meant he could pack it up and relocate it to the Star Luo Empire.

Dai Mubai decided to discuss moving Shrek Academy to the Star Luo Empire with Flender, believing the academy’s teachers and his fellow students could become his core supporters. After leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, Flender flew Dai Mubai back to the academy while Zhao Wuji hurried after them by carriage.

• Dai Mubai considered which members of the original Shrek Seven Devils he could recruit and concluded that the teachers, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun were the people he could win over.
• Dai Mubai resolved to raise the idea of moving Shrek Academy to the Star Luo Empire with Flender and the other teachers once they returned.
• Flender transformed into a giant Cat Owl and flew Dai Mubai from Soul Hunting Town toward Shrek Academy, leaving Zhao Wuji behind.
• Dai Mubai called out that they would have fine wine waiting for Zhao Wuji, who smiled and set off after them by carriage.

Dai Mubai returned to Shrek Academy after gaining three Soul Rings, and Flender worried about protecting him from those who might covet his talent. As Dai Mubai reunited with Oscar and Ma Hongjun over dinner, Flender considered inviting Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang to teach at the academy.
