Ye Qingzhou learned that Jia Nan Academy’s Inner Academy recruitment team would pass through Ye City and decided the academy was worth visiting for its cultivation opportunities and connections. Meanwhile, women across the continent considered how to approach Xiao Yan, and Ye Qingzhou left his next move unresolved as he weighed the benefits of going.
Ye Qingzhou planned to attend Jia Nan Academy, and Ye Xinlan arranged to go with him as his maid while he continued teaching her cultivation. After seven days of rapid progress and receiving powerful clan resources, Ye Qingzhou's plans reached Ye Zhong, who reacted with sudden alarm.
Ye Qingzhou advanced his cultivation and discovered that Xiao Yan had only just left Wutan City, while Cao Ying criticized Nalan Yanran’s handling of her broken engagement. The chapter ended with Cao Ying discovering that Ye Qingzhou’s diary had uploaded new content and demanding to know what he was doing.
Cao Ying and other diary readers were frustrated when Ye Qingzhou's updates stopped at a cliffhanger, but he discovered a way to keep recording Xiao Yan's future story as past thoughts. Cao Ying then received a Review Pen that let her post comments visible to the other copy holders, and she began composing one.
Cao Ying posted a review criticizing Nalan Yanran and Yun Yun, and the likes it received revealed that many powerful women across several worlds held diary copies. Queen Medusa then sought out Ya Fei, who recognized her, and ordered her to become her maid.
Ya Fei persuaded Queen Medusa not to make her a maidservant, and the two agreed to keep their diary copies secret while treating each other as half-friends. Xiao Yi Xian planned how to share the cave’s rewards with Xiao Yan, while Ye Zhong confronted Ye Qingzhou about going to Jia Nan Academy.
Ye Qingzhou convinced Ye Zhong to support his plan to cultivate at Jia Nan Academy by explaining its benefits and revealing that he had reached Two-Star Dou Ling. Ye Zhong arranged supplies for his departure, while Ye Xinlan asked what had changed his mind.
Ye Qingzhou and Ye Xinlan traveled to the Jia Nan Academy admissions assessment in Ye City after he revealed that he had reached Dou Ling. The chapter left off with Ye Qingzhou confronting Qiu Yue, who had angrily demanded to know who he was.
Ye Qingzhou fought Qiu Yue and Qiu Shuang after the Qiu brothers provoked him during Jia Nan Academy's assessment recruitment. Ye Zhengming intervened when Qiu Tian tried to attack Ye Qingzhou, and the two elders argued over responsibility for the fight.
Ye Qingzhou humiliated Qiu Tian in a verbal clash and learned that the Qiu Family was using the Jia Nan Academy recruitment to undermine the Ye Clan. He prepared to face the Qiu Family’s seed disciple Qiu Tao, while Han Yue considered befriending him.
At Jia Nan Academy's Inner Academy recruitment, the Qiu Family discussed Ye Qingzhou's strength and plans to suppress him, while Ye Qingzhou volunteered to take the examination for Fire Energy. Elder Mu Feng introduced the three Mysterious Heaven Jade Tokens and their trials, leaving the examination poised to begin.
Mu Feng explained the Fire Energy rewards for the Mysterious Heaven Jade Token assessments, and Ye Qingzhou and Qiu Tao were the first to begin. Ye Qingzhou saw through the white token’s seductive illusion, only for the test to shift into a new scene featuring Xuan Yi.
Xuan Yi’s failed attempt to take Ye Qingzhou as her disciple led to his gold first-place rating in the first assessment, and he earned another gold rating in the second. After qualifying for the final assessment, Ye Qingzhou entered the golden jade tablet’s illusion and prepared to use the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame.
Ye Qingzhou used the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame to pass the Mysterious Heaven Jade Token’s final assessment and obtained the Intermediate Di Tier Dou Technique Crimson Firmament Startling Thunder Halberd. After earning first place with a superior grade in all three assessments, he accepted Jia Nan Academy’s invitation to join its Inner Academy, leaving Qiu Tao stunned by the results.
Ye Qingzhou’s superior assessment results forced the Ye Clan to accept that he would attend Jia Nan Academy, while Qiu Tao agreed to go there and seek a chance to kill him. In Qingshan Town, Xiao Yi Xian watched a heavy-ruler-carrying youth arrive at the Myriad Medicine Pavilion and repeat the exact actions her diary had predicted.
Ye Qingzhou wrote about Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian’s future encounter with the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, prompting Xiao Yi Xian to realize Mu Li had uncovered her treasure cave plans. She decided to secure the three wooden boxes, invest in Xiao Yan, and conceal that she could read the diary.
Cao Ying reacted to the diary’s single chapter while the Ice Master revealed that she was reincarnating in a special place and sought help from her fellow Ancient Masters. In Qingshan Town, Xiao Yi Xian led a herb-gathering expedition and confronted Xiao Yan at a cliff, accusing him of finding a treasure cave.
Xiao Yi Xian convinced Xiao Yan to help her retrieve treasure from the cave beneath the cliff, while Ya Fei and Medusa observed and discussed how Xiao Yi Xian used her diary's information. Xiao Yan defeated the Rock Snake and entered the cave, where a mechanism-operated door blocked his way.
Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian entered the treasure cave and began dividing its contents, while Xiao Yi Xian’s diary copy changed her fate and awakened her Woeful Poison Body. The chapter left Xiao Yi Xian with new Seven-Colored Poison Wings and Ye Qingzhou rewarded with poison immunity, improved Eagle Wings, and a Purifying Lotus Demon Flame Seed.
