• Dai Mubai regained hope of winning Zhu Zhuqing back after noticing her improved complexion, while Xiao Wu asked Tang San to create a catalogue of Immortal Herbs for her.
• Tang San agreed to draw the catalogue and describe the herbs, earning Tianyu 69 Fortune Points through Xiao Wu's progress on her task.

• Tianyu used Fortune's Child Mode to create the Lion Meteor Fist, impressing Li Yusong and the students watching from the arena.
• Xiao Wu received Tang San's Immortal Herb catalogue, and Ning Rongrong received a storage Soul Tool with thirty cubic meters of space and planned to use it with a hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins to make Tianyu her underling.

Ning Rongrong tried to recruit Tianyu as her underling by offering him an expensive storage-type Soul Tool, but he refused until she offered it without conditions. She blushed and ran off after he accepted, while Oscar watched in disbelief.
