• Flender listed the Shrek students’ abilities, and Qin Ming explained that Dugu Yan was a level-fifty-three Soul King with a ten-thousand-year fourth Soul Ring.

Yu Xiaogang saw Dugu Yan’s ten-thousand-year fourth Soul Ring and insisted that she must have Twin Martial Souls, since accepting any other explanation would mean his theory was wrong. Dugu Yan denied it, mocked his conclusion, and left with Ye Lingling preparing to return to the hotel.

• Yu Xiaogang joined the Shrek group and wondered how Dugu Yan could have a ten-thousand-year fourth Soul Ring, recalling Lin Yaodong’s rings and his own theories.

• Dugu Yan accepted Flender’s promise to explain what happened, but demanded that Tang San kneel in his place.
• Tang San knelt, endured Dugu Yan’s mockery, and secretly swore to destroy her and the entire Dugu Family.

Flender revealed that Tang San’s interference in his duel with Lin Yaodong had led to Shrek Academy’s deaths and injuries, and explained why he forbade Tang San from using Hidden Weapons. Tang San rejected the criticism and insisted he was right, while Dugu Yan condemned him and Qin Ming defended Shrek Academy.

• Flender recounted how Tang San’s attempted sneak attack on Lin Yaodong turned a potential acquaintance into an enemy and left Shrek Academy with two dead members, one crippled, and one seriously injured.

• Dugu Yan called Tang San despicable and described Shrek as a den of filth, prompting Ma Hongjun to object and Qin Ming to defend the academy.

Yu Xiaogang restored Tang San’s resolve by urging him to grow strong before seeking revenge. Outside Suotuo City, Chen Mo rescued Zhu Zhuqing from her sister’s pursuers and learned that she came from the Zhu Family of the Star Luo Empire.

• Yu Xiaogang reminded Tang San of his own suffering and persuaded him to stop despairing and focus on becoming strong enough to take revenge.
• Zhu Zhuqing, who had searched unsuccessfully for Dai Mubai at Shrek Academy, fought off her sister Zhu Zhuyun’s pursuers rather than return to the Star Luo Empire.

• Chen Mo introduced herself to Zhu Zhuqing and deduced her family from her surname and Hell Spirit Cat Martial Soul.

• Lin Yaodong used all four Soul Skills to defeat the Gale Falcon, then spared it because he was not yet level fifty.

Ye Lingling struggled to heal Lin Yaodong, who returned to Chen Mo’s side and recounted the events of the past year. Chen Mo learned that Lin Yaodong and Dugu Yan had independently fought Shrek Academy and was left baffled by how much they had changed the situation around Tang San.

• Ye Lingling used nearly all her Soul Power but healed less than a tenth of Lin Yaodong’s injuries, and Chen Mo dragged him back through the poisonous fog.
• Chen Mo reunited with his younger sister, listened to her stories, and decided to let her pursue her plans with Zhu Zhuqing without interfering.

• Chen Mo silently realized that Lin Yaodong and Dugu Yan had both taken action against Shrek without his orders and wondered how Tang San had dared attack his subordinate.

Chen Mo concluded that Tang San had to die but delayed acting until he located Tang Hao, whose intentions toward his son remained unclear. He sent Lin Yaodong to ask the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to find Tang Hao, while Tang San and Shrek arrived in Heaven Dou City as the weakened Heaven Dou Royal Academy sought new talent.

• Chen Mo asked Dugu Yan whether she had encountered Tang Hao after defeating Tang San and Shrek, and she learned that Tang San was Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao's son.

• Yu Xiaogang decided to recruit Ning Rongrong from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to strengthen the team’s chances of reaching the finals.

Ning Rongrong joined the Shrek Team after Tang San demonstrated his Hidden Weapons, while Ning Fengzhi agreed to back Tang San against Chen Mo only if Tang San could kill him. Lin Yaodong then used a jade pendant to ask the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to secretly find Tang Hao, leaving Ning Fengzhi surprised by how modest the request was.

• Yu Xiaogang invited Ning Rongrong to join the Shrek Team, but she dismissed the offer until Tang San demonstrated his Hidden Weapons.
• Ning Fengzhi agreed to purchase Tang San's Hidden Weapons, and Ning Rongrong joined the Shrek Team.

• Lin Yaodong visited Ning Fengzhi and asked the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to secretly find Tang Hao in exchange for settling their debt.
• Ning Fengzhi was astonished that Lin Yaodong's request was only to locate Tang Hao.

Lin Yaodong learned from Ning Fengzhi that Tang San was developing Hidden Weapons and decided to deal with Tang San and Tang Hao himself after reaching Soul King. Ning Fengzhi agreed to help find Tang Hao, while Chen Mo’s group continued relying on their Blood Refiner foundations to withstand threats.

• Lin Yaodong reassured Ning Fengzhi that he and Chen Mo had no plans to interfere with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect or the Douluo Continent.
• Ning Fengzhi agreed to mobilize the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to find Tang Hao, then revealed Tang San’s cooperation agreement and Hidden Weapon plans to Lin Yaodong.
• Lin Yaodong decided to reach Soul King and defeat Tang San and Tang Hao without asking Chen Mo for help.
• Ning Fengzhi offered samples of Tang San’s Hidden Weapons, but Lin Yaodong dismissed them as a limited threat and Ning Fengzhi speculated that Lin Yaodong possessed another source of power.
• Chen Mo’s group relied on the Blood Refiner System’s life nourishing realm, and Lin Yaodong reasoned that its vitality and his caution would protect him from Tang San’s Hidden Weapons.

Chen Mo established Moon Shadow Wind Spirit Academy so she and her companions could enter the Soul Master Tournament, drawing unsolicited support from major powers because of her brother's influence.

Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling withdrew from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to join the newly established Moon Shadow Wind Spirit Academy, leaving Qin Ming disappointed but wishing them well.
