Douluo Continent Recap
Episode 1 Recap
Sheng Hun Village is located in a remote area, the mountain roads are rugged, the village is sparsely populated, and rarely contacts the outside world. In the small wooden house deep in the bamboo forest, the small flames in the hearth were burning brightly, although it was snowing heavily outside, the small wooden house was as warm as spring, the young Tang San was sleeping soundly.
He once again dreamed that he had come to a magical world, the ground was full of Blue Silver Plant, a woman's gentle voice came from afar, she called Tang San's name, promising to wait for him forever. Tang San was startled awake by the dream, He felt that the gentle voice was his mother's. Tang San went out in the heavy snow to chop firewood, making the fire in the hearth burn brighter.
He prepared meals and brought them to his father Tang Hao, only to find that he was drunk and unconscious again. Ever since his wife San Mei died during childbirth, Tang Hao started drinking excessively due to excessive grief. Tang San had seen his father like this since he was very young, He was already used to it, and helped his father onto the bed to sleep.
As soon as dawn broke, Tang San, as usual, took the book "Xuan Tian Bao Lu" and went deep into the forest to practice his unique skill. This unique skill must be practiced when the purple qi comes from the east in the early morning. Tang San single-mindedly wanted to practice Xuan Tian Gong to the ninth level, but after passing the first level, he encountered a bottleneck, and he was always unable to break through.
After Tang San concentrated on practicing, on the way back, he saw a overturned carriage, and heard strange noises coming from nearby. Tang San pushed aside the grass, found a Human Faced Demon Spider and had to flee in a hurry. Unable to get rid of it during his escape, he could only use his hidden weapons to stab the eyes of the Human Faced Demon Spider, blinding it.
But this provoked the Human Faced Demon Spider to seek revenge, Tang San resisted desperately, the Human Faced Demon Spider pressed him step by step, its moves were deadly. Tang San fled in panic, the demon spider pursued him relentlessly, Tang San slipped and fell to the ground. He closed his eyes tightly in fear, and secretly cried out in his heart, knowing that this time he could not escape the disaster.
Just as the demon spider was about to devour the weak Tang San, a chilling wind blew through the forest, Deacon Su Yuntao of the Martial Soul Hall arrived in time to rescue him, He used his Lone Wolf Possession Divine Skill, and quickly drove the demon spider away. Tang San admired Su Yuntao immensely, and also wanted to become a Soul Master like him, standing above others.
Su Yuntao gave him a book, Tang San yearned for the Douluo Continent described in it, and couldn't wait to go home and ask his father for advice. Tang Hao repeatedly told him not to use his unique skills in front of outsiders, and also told him about Soul Beasts. Su Yuntao was worried that the Human Faced Demon Spider would come back to the village for revenge, and wanted to stay in Sheng Hun Village for two more days.
The village chief pleaded with Su Yuntao to hold a Martial Soul awakening ceremony for the young people in the village, hoping that those destined would become Soul Masters. Su Yuntao readily agreed. The village chief immediately came to inform Tang San, Tang San naturally couldn't ask for more, but Tang Hao strongly opposed it.
After confirming that Tang San had memorized the contents of the book "Xuan Tian Bao Lu", he also burned the book "Xuan Tian Bao Lu", Tang San was utterly perplexed. Tang Hao had made him practice this technique since he was young, and also forbade him to tell anyone, Tang San guessed that this matter was related to his mother, but Tang Hao avoided answering.
Tang San secretly came to watch from outside the window as Su Yuntao helped the young people in the village awaken their Martial Souls. After the ceremony ended, Su Yuntao called out to Tang San, to help him awaken his Martial Soul. Unexpectedly, the Martial Soul in Tang San's right hand turned out to be Blue Silver Plant, this was a trash Martial Soul, which could not make Tang San strong at all.
Su Yuntao then tested Tang San's Soul Power, and found that he was born with full Soul Power. Su Yuntao was overjoyed, and warmly invited Tang San to join Nuo Ding School, firmly believing that he could become a Soul Master. Tang Hao disagreed with Tang San leaving home, but couldn't resist Tang San's persistent pleading, but he requested that Tang San could become a Soul Master but could not join the Martial Soul Hall.
Tang San felt a surge of power in his left hand, so Tang Hao helped him summon his Martial Soul, it turned out to be his own Hao Tian Hammer. Tang Hao was both surprised and pleased, unexpectedly, Tang San possessed twin Martial Souls, he repeatedly told him to use the Hao Tian Hammer to protect the Blue Silver Plant in the future. Tang Hao believed that he would soon master Xuan Yu Shou.
Immediately after, Tang Hao told Tang San to grind an iron rod into a needle, and then he would agree to let him follow Su Yuntao to the Martial Soul school. Tang San felt that Tang Hao was deliberately making things difficult, it was simply impossible to grind such a thick iron rod into such a fine needle in a short time.
So Tang Hao personally demonstrated, hitting the iron rod with a hammer, and also had Tang San observe the details with his Zi Jin Mo Tong. Tang San clearly saw that every strike of Tang Hao's hammer landed in the same spot, and he suddenly understood. Tang San hammered the iron rod day and night, taking a nap on the table when tired, until large blood blisters formed on his palms.
He still refused to give up, Tang Hao was very heartbroken, and secretly bandaged him, Tang San woke up and continued hammering. After Tang San's unremitting efforts, he finally ground the iron rod into a needle, Tang San was overjoyed, and couldn't wait to set off with the village chief.
Episode 2 Recap
Tang San was worried about his father Tang Hao. He knew that he drank every day to drown his sorrows because he missed his dead wife San Mei. Tang Hao used the excuse of coming back for that needle and reluctantly parted with Tang San. Tang Hao promised not to drink anymore and gave Tang San numerous instructions.
Tang San swore to become the strongest Soul Master and hoped that after he returned from school, Tang Hao could tell him everything about his mother. The village chief quickly took Tang San to Nuo Ding Soul Master School. Yu Xiaogang, who called himself a Master, was leisurely reading a book at the entrance. He checked Tang San's Martial Soul and let him pass.
However, student Liu Long blocked Tang San, mocked and ridiculed him, and forced him to produce a recommendation letter. Tang San had no recommendation letter. Su Yuntao had previously given him a recommendation token from the Martial Soul Hall, allowing him to directly come to the school as a supplementary student, with tuition and board entirely free. Liu Long spoke disrespectfully to Tang San and wanted to drive the village chief away.
Xiao Chenyu arrived in time to help Tang San. He was the son of the Nuo Ding City Lord and was Tang San's schoolmate. He warmly welcomed him to enroll and even helped him arrange his dormitory. Only then did the village chief leave relieved. Xiao Chenyu heard that Tang San was recommended by the Martial Soul Hall and concluded that his Martial Soul was very special. Tang San admitted it was Blue Silver Plant.
Liu Long scoffed at this trash Martial Soul. Tang San claimed to be born with full Soul Power. Xiao Chenyu and Liu Long were immediately stunned. Few people on the Douluo Continent possessed innate full Soul Power. Yu Xiaogang immediately caught up with Tang San. Based on his research, he speculated that Tang San should have more than one Martial Soul, so he persistently questioned Tang San about his other Martial Soul. Tang San remembered his father's instructions.
He found various excuses to conceal it. Yu Xiaogang knew he was lying but didn't ask further and just took him to complete the enrollment process, also briefly introducing the school's situation. Yu Xiaogang asked Tang San to become his disciple, repeatedly claiming that only he could guide Tang San. The first step for enrollment in Xiao Chenyu's Martial Arts Club was to make new students kill live rabbits.
This was because Soul Masters had to hunt Soul Beasts to advance their Soul Rings. Tang San was scared by this scene. He could not bear to kill living beings and released all the rabbits in the cages. At the same time, Xiao Wu also came to Nuo Ding Soul Master School to report. Xiao Chenyu saw that she was young and beautiful and took the initiative to greet her, but Xiao Wu wasn't impressed.
Just then, someone reported to Xiao Chenyu that Tang San had released all the rabbits. Liu Long hurriedly accompanied Xiao Chenyu to see what was happening, and Xiao Wu also followed closely behind to watch the fun. Xiao Chenyu explicitly stated that killing rabbits was the first step to becoming a Soul Master, and only then could they kill Soul Beasts. Tang San argued with him reasonably. Liu Long spoke disrespectfully to Tang San.
Xiao Chenyu forced Tang San to withdraw from the Martial Arts Club, but he had to catch all those rabbits back. Tang San was neither servile nor overbearing. Yu Xiaogang loudly called Tang San away, and only then did this farce come to an end. Tang San successfully found his dormitory, Room Seven. Wang Sheng, the boss of the dormitory, heard that he had twin Martial Souls and became very interested in him. Tang San just smiled it off.
Wang Sheng discovered he was recommended by the Martial Soul Hall and forced him to show his Martial Soul. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the trash Martial Soul Blue Silver Plant. Wang Sheng was greatly puzzled and persistently questioned Tang San about his background. Tang San found excuses to deal with it. Xiao Wu arrived in time, resolving Tang San's awkwardness. She wanted to sleep in the bed next to Tang San's.
Wang Sheng firmly disagreed and even revealed his Battle Tiger Martial Soul to fight with Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu's Martial Soul was a Rabbit. She disdained revealing her Martial Soul and subdued Wang Sheng in a few punches and kicks. Wang Sheng was unwilling to give up. He struggled to get up and continued to fight fiercely with Xiao Wu, and was knocked down by Xiao Wu onto the ground again.
Yu Xiaogang came to bring Tang San bedding and instructed him not to get involved in the students' fights. Xiao Wu challenged Tang San, claiming she would be the dormitory boss. Tang San tried every way to decline, but Xiao Wu was persistent. She made the first move. Tang San dodged left and right and was quickly knocked to the ground. He actively admitted defeat. Xiao Wu was so happy she was grinning widely.
The administrator of the girls' dormitory rushed over and took Xiao Wu to the girls' dormitory. Only then did she reluctantly leave. Wang Sheng still wanted to be the dormitory boss and challenged Tang San. Tang San suddenly saw the light on the roof fall down and desperately pushed Wang Sheng away, but he was knocked to the ground by the large hanging lamp. Tang San's nose was bleeding.
Wang Sheng and others hurriedly took him to the infirmary and even nominated him as the dormitory boss. Yu Xiaogang heard that Tang San was injured and hurriedly came to visit. Tang San briefly narrated what happened. Yu Xiaogang saw that he only had a nosebleed and only then left relieved. Tang San went to the blacksmith's shop in the city to buy iron nails and voluntarily offered to be an apprentice.
Shopkeeper Shi San saw that he was thin and weak and was worried he couldn't handle this kind of physical labor. Tang San had been following his father blacksmithing since he was young and had developed great skills. He used the Luan Pi Feng Hammer technique on the spot to forge a farm tool. Shi San praised his craftsmanship profusely. Tang San asked Shi San for an iron nail and re-hung the hanging lamp.
That night, Xiao Wu secretly crawled into Tang San's bedding and praised his body for being as warm as Monkey Erming's. Tang San thought he was dreaming and didn't take it seriously. Tang San woke up early in the morning and saw his dormitory mates gathered around him and Xiao Wu to watch the fun. Xiao Wu woke up stretching lazily and asked Tang San to help her comb her hair.
Episode 3 Recap
Tang San combed Xiao Wu's hair, and they couldn't help but talk about their respective families. The more they talked, the more they hit it off. Xiao Wu happily went to eat. Wang Sheng and others quickly gathered around, asking questions curiously. Tang San felt clear-hearted. He praised Xiao Wu as a very simple girl. Xiao Chenyu sent Liu Long to search all around the girls' dormitory, but couldn't find a trace of Xiao Wu.
He didn't expect Xiao Wu to be living in Room Seven, and even be the boss there. Xiao Chenyu was greatly angered. Xiao Wu excitedly pulled Tang San to the cafeteria to eat. Xiao Chenyu invited Xiao Wu to the Soul Master club to eat delicious food. Xiao Wu didn't appreciate it at all. Liu Long yelled at Xiao Wu, trying to forcibly pull her away. Xiao Wu kicked Liu Long, knocking him to the ground.
Xiao Chenyu was furious and even brought up that the school director was his third uncle to make his point. Tang San didn't buy it at all and pulled Xiao Wu to the cafeteria to eat. During the theory class exam, Liu Long couldn't answer the questions, so he snatched Wang Sheng's paper and then falsely accused Wang Sheng of cheating. Tang San and Xiao Wu stepped forward to expose Liu Long.
Without further explanation, the invigilator teacher kicked Liu Long and Wang Sheng out. Next was the Martial Soul combat class. The instructor asked Xiao Chenyu to demonstrate for the students. Xiao Chenyu asked Tang San to be his partner, which was actually just wanting to use Tang San as a live target to teach him a good lesson. Xiao Chenyu swung his fist, hitting Tang San in the chest.
He was hit so hard he lost his balance and almost fell. Xiao Chenyu pressed on step by step, delivering potentially fatal moves, which were all cleverly resolved by Tang San. Two students held Tang San's arms tightly, and Xiao Chenyu swung his fist fiercely towards his abdomen. Tang San remained motionless. Xiao Chenyu felt a huge counterforce and was extremely surprised at how Tang San counterattacked. The instructor had the students hit sandbags to practice arm strength.
Xiao Wu named her Martial Soul "Soft Bone Rabbit". Xiao Chenyu ambushed Tang San when he wasn't paying attention, but was knocked to the ground by Tang San. Xiao Wu also rushed over to help. The instructor quickly intervened to stop them and told Liu Long to take Xiao Chenyu back to change his clothes, punishing Tang San and Xiao Wu by making them clean the courtyard.
Tang San saw that Xiao Wu's clothes were wet, so he used his Mysterious Jade Hand divine skill to help her dry them. Tang San and Xiao Wu came to clean the courtyard, but didn't expect Liu Long and Xiao Chenyu to have ambushed them here early, wanting to take the opportunity to teach Tang San a lesson. Tang San quickly noticed something was wrong.
He used his Purple Demon Eye to discover Liu Long and Xiao Chenyu hidden behind the large box, and ignited the gunpowder they had prepared. The two of them were blown up, covered in ash and dirt, and didn't dare to make a sound. Tang San calmly took Xiao Wu to eat. Xiao Chenyu witnessed how formidable Tang San was and regretted his lack of ability. Liu Long gave him a bad idea.
The instructor provided one-on-one guidance to the students, and their Martial Souls made great progress. Only Tang San's Blue Silver Plant showed no change at all. The instructor was helpless regarding Tang San's trash Martial Soul, Blue Silver Plant, and advised him to give up being a Soul Master, focusing instead on studying Martial Soul theory, potentially becoming a theoretician like Yu Xiaogang in the future. Tang San felt deeply lost. Xiao Wu desperately tried to cheer him up.
Tang San went to ask Yu Xiaogang for advice. Yu Xiaogang encouraged him not to be discouraged. He never considered the Blue Silver Plant a trash Martial Soul and told Tang San to carefully observe it. Tang San went to the forest to practice. No matter how hard he tried, his Mysterious Heaven Skill never improved, and the Blue Silver Plant showed no changes. He was so anxious he didn't know what to do.
Xiao Wu casually said, "The Blue Silver Plant isn't special." Tang San suddenly had an epiphany. He quickly went to seek advice from Yu Xiaogang. Yu Xiaogang told him to cultivate using the Blue Silver Plant to become a control-type Soul Master. He even personally instructed him on how to communicate with the Blue Silver Plant. Tang San held his breath and interacted with the Blue Silver Plant.
The Blue Silver Plant gradually responded and began to grow little by little. Tang San was overjoyed. Yu Xiaogang continued to explain the advantages of the Blue Silver Plant as a Martial Soul. At this moment, the Blue Silver Plant instantly transformed into long vines, tightly binding Tang San to a scarecrow. Yu Xiaogang told him to shift his attention, and the Blue Silver Plant slowly returned to its original state.
Before leaving, Yu Xiaogang gave him a bottle of liniment. Tang San tried several times. The Blue Silver Plant slowly grew under the summoning of his will. Tang San couldn't control the long vines and was dragged rolling around on the ground. Tang San groaned repeatedly, only then understanding why Yu Xiaogang had given him liniment. Xiao Wu came to find Tang San dispiritedly.
The Soul Master club was holding an election for the boss tomorrow afternoon, and Xiao Wu had signed up as a candidate, but she didn't know what to say during the election. Tang San encouraged her to do more good deeds for everyone and cheered her on. Xiao Wu was deeply attracted by the smell of glutinous rice turnip cake on the street, but she had no money on her.
Tang San went to Shi San's blacksmith shop to work and quickly forged a sharp kitchen knife. Tang San asked Shi San to advance his salary for the month and immediately bought glutinous rice turnip cake for Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu ate with great enjoyment. Tang San gave Xiao Wu the concealed weapon he invented, the "Sleeve Arrow", and personally put it on her wrist. Xiao Wu loved it.
The Nuo Ding City Lord led his team past ostentatiously, knocking over a roadside stall. They drove away without a second thought. Tang San quickly squatted down to help pick things up. Xiao Wu disliked the City Lord's overbearing behavior.
Episode 4 Recap
Tang San hurriedly returned to the school with Xiao Wu, preparing to attend the Soul Master club chairman election meeting in the afternoon. Xiao Wu was full of confidence. Unexpectedly, the election meeting had already ended. Xiao Chenyu, relying on his numbers and influence, was elected chairman of the Soul Master club. He also prepared a timetable for the affiliated students, working in the morning and also having to work in the afternoon.
Not only did they have no time for classes, but they were also unable to participate in Soul Power training, making it impossible to improve their Martial Soul. Xiao Chenyu was clearly targeting Tang San and Xiao Wu. Wang Sheng couldn't help but speak up for Tang San and advised them both to escape as soon as possible, because Nuo Ding City and the school belonged to the Xiao family.
Tang San accidentally discovered that Ling Feng, a Soul Master from the City Lord's Mansion, had sent people to carry a heavy iron cage to the school. Liu Long led them to an empty room in the backyard. Full of suspicion, Tang San summoned his Blue Silver Plant with his mind, wanting to go in and see what was happening. But Tang San tried several times without success. He calmed his mind and composed himself.
The Blue Silver Plant grew bigger and bigger. He used the vines to climb onto the roof. He saw a Nether Wolf in the iron cage. That was caught by Ling Feng. Xiao Chenyu drew his sword and killed this wolf. A circle of white Soul Ring appeared above the iron cage. Xiao Chenyu held the Soul Ring tightly in his hand. He instantly became a true Soul Master and declared that he would fight Tang San to the death.
Tang San went to find Yu Xiaogang overnight to ask for advice. Yu Xiaogang advised him to give up as soon as possible, as what Xiao Chenyu wanted was Xiao Wu. Tang San was not convinced. Yu Xiaogang promised to help him obtain a Soul Ring and told him to meet him on time tonight. Late at night, Tang San saw that Xiao Wu was already asleep. He hurried to meet Yu Xiaogang.
Yu Xiaogang wanted to take him to the Hunter's Forest to hunt a Soul Beast and obtain a Soul Ring. But they needed a clearance permit from the Martial Soul Hall to enter the forest. So Yu Xiaogang took Tang San to stake out outside a shop, wanting to sneak in to buy the clearance permit when the shop closed. Yu Xiaogang summoned his Martial Soul, Luo Sanpao. Tang San didn't expect it to be a dog.
The shopkeeper claimed the clearance permit was hard to get and wanted 100 gold soul coins. Yu Xiaogang traded Luo Sanpao as a live Soul Beast and successfully obtained the clearance permit. Luo Sanpao was a mutated Martial Soul, generally unrecognizable to ordinary people. Yu Xiaogang summoned Luo Sanpao back as soon as they left the shop. The two of them worried the shopkeeper would find out and chase them, so they quickly hurried away.
Yu Xiaogang had prepared a large cart of white radishes for Luo Sanpao beforehand. He and Tang San successfully entered the Hunter's Forest with the clearance permit. Xiao Chenyu found that Tang San was missing and didn't believe he would run away. Xiao Chenyu threatened and intimidated Wang Sheng, forcing him to reveal Tang San's whereabouts. Wang Sheng's family was controlled by the City Lord, so he could only obey Xiao Chenyu's orders.
Xiao Chenyu heard that Tang San had left the city for the Hunter's Forest. Without a word, he took Liu Long to chase after him, wanting to stop Tang San from hunting a Soul Beast. Luo Sanpao had an extraordinary sense of smell. Guided by him, they could find Soul Beasts. But after walking for a while, Luo Sanpao became exhausted. Yu Xiaogang fed him to replenish his strength. A Nether Wolf suddenly appeared in the forest.
Yu Xiaogang had Luo Sanpao attack and knock out the Nether Wolf. He killed the Nether Wolf with a dagger. A white Soul Ring appeared before his eyes. Yu Xiaogang claimed his Martial Soul was useless and he didn't need the Soul Ring. But Tang San couldn't absorb it either. The Soul Ring and the Nether Wolf's body instantly turned to ashes. Luo Sanpao ate radishes in large mouthfuls to replenish his strength.
Tang San suddenly heard movement in the radish basket. He quickly opened it to see what was inside. Unexpectedly, Xiao Wu was hidden inside. Xiao Wu had secretly hidden herself when they were buying radishes. She begged Tang San not to send her back and promised not to cause them trouble. Xiao Wu had lived in the forest since childhood. She guessed that the pack of Nether Wolves would come soon. They were so scared they took off running.
Xiao Chenyu brought Liu Long through the checkpoint to the Hunter's Forest. They quickly found wheel tracks and followed them to search inside. As expected by Xiao Wu, the pack of Nether Wolves arrived quickly. Yu Xiaogang released Tang Sanpao to hold back the wolf pack. They seized the opportunity to flee in a hurry. Xiao Wu thought Yu Xiaogang was intentionally harming Tang San, so she quietly pulled him aside.
Xiao Wu had checked all the books in the school library. If the first Soul Beast hunted had cultivated for over 400 years, it would lead to Martial Soul failure, and one would never become a Soul Master. Tang San firmly believed that Yu Xiaogang would not harm him. He wanted to obtain a Soul Ring as soon as possible, as only then could he contend with Xiao Chenyu. Xiao Wu couldn't bear to kill kind and cute Soul Beasts.
She decided to take him to find a fierce and bad Soul Beast. Unknowingly, Xiao Wu came to the territory of the Nether Wolves. She found clear signs of a struggle on the ground. Xiao Wu suddenly saw a wounded spotted cat. Tang San used his Purple Demon Eye to observe and drew his dagger, wanting to kill the spotted cat. Suddenly, he saw a young spotted cat guarding its injured mother. He immediately softened his heart. Xiao Wu went to find herbs to treat the spotted cat's injuries. Xiao Chenyu and Liu Long suddenly arrived and knocked Xiao Wu to the ground.
Episode 5 Recap
Liu Long and Xiao Chenyu found Tang San and Xiao Wu. Liu Long spoke rudely to Tang San. Tang San used the ultimate move Controlling Crane Catching Dragon to attack Liu Long. He cried out in pain. Xiao Chenyu pretended to apologize to Xiao Wu and wanted to take her back to raise her as a pet rabbit. Xiao Wu was about to lose her temper, but Tang San quickly stopped her.
Xiao Chenyu forced Tang San to hand over Xiao Wu and then join his Martial Arts Society. Tang San flatly refused. Xiao Chenyu ordered them to capture the young spotted cat alive. Before Liu Long could make a move, Luo Sanpao suddenly appeared, closely followed by a Manduola snake. It scattered Xiao Chenyu and the surrounding guards. Xiao Wu seized the opportunity to help Tang San escape.
Yu Xiaogang suddenly appeared and told Tang San and Xiao Wu to follow him closely to avoid further trouble. Xiao Wu was determined to go back and save the injured spotted cat. Yu Xiaogang advised her to give up on that idea early. He found that the spotted cat was bitten by the Manduola snake, so he followed the traces to find the snake's lair.
He had Luo Sanpao provoke the snake and led it to Xiao Chenyu and his group, which allowed Tang San and Xiao Wu to escape. Yu Xiaogang felt that this Manduola snake was very suitable for Tang San and told him to kill the snake and absorb its Soul Ring. Xiao Wu raised a question, but Tang San had absolute faith in Yu Xiaogang. Yu Xiaogang wanted to make his move when Xiao Chenyu and the snake were both injured.
Xiao Chenyu and Liu Long were gradually unable to resist. They were scared and fled in panic. The Manduola snake suddenly attacked Yu Xiaogang. Yu Xiaogang told Tang San to make a move and kill the snake. Tang San flew up and down, using hidden weapon iron nails to attack the snake. As a result, he was knocked to the ground.
Tang San used his Purple Demon Eye to blind the snake's eyes, and then used iron nails to pierce the snake's throat. The Manduola snake immediately fell to the ground and died. A yellow Soul Ring appeared above its head. Tang San knew this snake had at least 400 years of cultivation. Yu Xiaogang was bitten and poisoned by the Manduola snake.
Tang San wanted to go and save Yu Xiaogang, but Xiao Wu advised him not to believe Yu Xiaogang's theory. Xiao Chenyu and Liu Long returned. They provoked Tang San. Tang San quickly absorbed the yellow Soul Ring above the Manduola snake's head. Yu Xiaogang suddenly woke up. He struggled to get up and used all his power to summon Luo Sanpao to attack Xiao Chenyu and Liu Long, covering Tang San and Xiao Wu's escape.
Xiao Chenyu, in a fit of anger, captured Yu Xiaogang and told Tang San to return to the school before dark tomorrow, otherwise he would kill Yu Xiaogang. Tang San finally sobered up. He successfully summoned the Soul Ring and felt his whole body was filled with power. Tang San was ecstatic; he finally possessed his first Soul Ring. Xiao Wu was also happy for him, which also proved that Yu Xiaogang's words were correct.
Xiao Wu found the cinnabar lotus that cures snake venom and had already helped the spotted cat heal its injuries. Tang San learned that Yu Xiaogang had been captured by Xiao Chenyu and was eager to go back and save him. Xiao Chenyu repeatedly pressed Yu Xiaogang, asking why he helped Tang San. Yu Xiaogang kept saying it was a deal.
Xiao Chenyu did not believe it at all and wanted to wait for Tang San to return tomorrow to clarify. Yu Xiaogang firmly believed Tang San would not return. Xiao Chenyu immediately decided that the school would have a day off tomorrow and sent Liu Long to Zhishe Tang to find the information of Tang San and Xiao Wu. Tang San summoned his Blue Silver Plant, wanting to test the power of the Soul Ring.
Xiao Wu voluntarily offered to be the test subject. Tang San tried his Blue Silver Plant on her and found that his first Soul Skill inherited the poison of the Manduola, proving to be infinitely powerful. Tang San lied, claiming he didn't want to risk returning to the school to save Yu Xiaogang, and sent Xiao Wu home. Xiao Wu knew he would definitely go to save Yu Xiaogang, so she asked the pack of Nether Wolves for help.
Tang San secretly came to the school. Xiao Wu followed closely behind. Tang San didn't want her to take the risk. Unexpectedly, Xiao Wu possessed a century-level Soul Ring. Tang San was amazed. He took Xiao Wu to find Wang Sheng to inquire about Yu Xiaogang's whereabouts. Wang Sheng promised to give them news tomorrow. Early the next morning, Wang Sheng came early to inform Tang San. Yu Xiaogang was locked in the training ground.
Wang Sheng wanted to go with the two of them to save him, but Tang San didn't want to implicate him, so Wang Sheng had to give up. Tang San brought Xiao Wu to the training ground. The two of them cooperated and knocked out the guards. Xiao Wu fed Yu Xiaogang the cinnabar lotus. Yu Xiaogang reminded him not to fall into a trap and told them to leave quickly.
Xiao Wu pushed Tang San away, but she didn't have time to run herself and was trapped in a large iron cage. Xiao Wu wanted to bend the iron bars, but she was electrocuted and fell down. Xiao Chenyu escorted Wang Sheng and arrived shortly after. Only then did Tang San realize that he had used Wang Sheng to lure them there. Wang Sheng repeatedly apologized to Tang San.
His father was controlled by the City Lord, so he was helpless. Xiao Chenyu forced Tang San to help introduce Su Yuntao. Tang San asked Xiao Chenyu to release Xiao Wu. Xiao Chenyu publicly exposed Xiao Wu as a fraud. He took out the recommendation letter from Gujie Village, which recommended a young boy. Xiao Wu admitted that she spent dozens of gold soul coins to exchange for this spot, and that boy went to a better Martial Soul school.
Xiao Chenyu did not believe it at all, saying Xiao Wu could have used this money to attend a better Martial Soul school, yet she chose to come to this junior school. Xiao Chenyu wanted to rely on the Martial Soul Hall. He knew that Su Yuntao, a deacon of the Martial Soul Hall, thought highly of Tang San, and asked Tang San to help introduce him.
He also tried his best to win Tang San over, promising that after the matter was settled, he would let Tang Hao move to Nuoding City and live a life without worries about food and clothing. Tang San was completely unmoved. Xiao Wu tried to break free from the iron cage again and trembled all over from being electrocuted. Tang San swore to rescue Xiao Wu and Yu Xiaogang.
He summoned his Blue Silver Plant and tightly bound the iron cage. As a result, he was defeated by a powerful current. Tang San was unwilling to give up and summoned his Blue Silver Plant again. Yu Xiaogang advised him to stop, worried that his Martial Soul would be crippled, but Tang San did not care at all.
Episode 6 Recap
Tang San endured the severe pain of being electrocuted and used his Blue Silver Plant to tightly bind the bars of the iron cage. He pulled with all his might, and the Blue Silver Plant withered little by little from the electricity. Tang San was electrocuted to the point of bleeding from his nose and mouth before a large gap was pulled open in the iron cage bars. Tang San fainted on the ground due to physical exhaustion.
Xiao Wu and Yu Xiaogang quickly came out from the gap and helped Tang San up. Tang San struggled to get up. He tried to summon his Blue Silver Plant, but there was no response. Yu Xiaogang advised him not to waste any more energy; his Martial Soul was completely crippled. Xiao Chenyu mocked Tang San and forced him to submit.
Yu Xiaogang used his double Soul Rings, but Xiao Chenyu was completely disdainful and even ridiculed Yu Xiaogang as a cripple. Yu Xiaogang told Tang San and Xiao Wu to hold their breath. He summoned the sleeping Luo Sanpao. Luo Sanpao jumped up and released a large smoke bomb at Xiao Chenyu and his group, instantly fuming them unconscious. Xiao Chenyu threatened to chase them to Saint Soul Village and kill them.
Yu Xiaogang became angry out of shame, went back and severely beat him. Xiao Chenyu was so scared that he repeatedly begged for mercy. Yu Xiaogang determined that Xiao Chenyu would not give up easily. Tang San wanted to go back to Saint Soul Village and take his father away with him. Wang Sheng refused to let go of this rare opportunity for revenge and killed Xiao Chenyu with one stab. Ling Feng rushed over upon hearing the news.
Seeing Xiao Chenyu killed with his throat slit, he woke up the unconscious Liu Long and questioned him about the reason. Ling Feng saw the bent iron cage and learned that it was the work of Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, and Xiao Wu. He ordered Liu Long to wake up all the guards present and go to Saint Soul Village together to hunt down Tang San and the others, otherwise the City Lord would bury everyone with him.
Tang San took Xiao Wu and Yu Xiaogang back to Saint Soul Village, but Tang Hao was not at home. Yu Xiaogang found a thick layer of dust on the furniture and guessed that no one had lived there for a long time. Yu Xiaogang asked Tang San to summon his Blue Silver Plant again, but it still didn't work.
Yu Xiaogang wanted to find a second Soul Ring as quickly as possible to repair the Blue Silver Plant for Tang San, but the chance of success was only ten percent, and it would be impossible to find a second Soul Ring suitable for Tang San in a short time. Tang Hao rushed back and revealed Xiao Chenyu's death to them, telling Tang San and the others to leave quickly to avoid becoming burial sacrifices.
Tang San was greatly puzzled; they had only clashed, and had not killed Xiao Chenyu at all. Due to the urgency of time, Tang San couldn't think too much and urged Xiao Wu to leave quickly. Xiao Wu firmly refused to go and insisted on going to find the Village Chief with him. Yu Xiaogang sized up Tang Hao, feeling he looked very familiar.
Only upon closer inspection did he recognize him as the former Hao Tian Douluo of the Martial Soul Hall. Yu Xiaogang held him in awe and respect, having always believed Tang Hao had died long ago, and was surprised to see him so changed. Tang Hao summoned his Martial Soul Hao Tian Hammer and forcefully hammered open the meteorite stone embedded in the ground, releasing the Haunted Vine that had been sealed below for six hundred years.
That was the Soul Ring his wife had prepared for Tang San. Tang Hao had personally witnessed Tang San kill the Manduola snake and had not intervened because he wanted him to be able to handle things on his own. Tang Hao asked Yu Xiaogang not to reveal his past to Tang San.
Tang Hao was going to Nuoding City to help Tang San deal with the root of the problem, asking Yu Xiaogang to stay in Saint Soul Village to help Tang San out of the predicament. Yu Xiaogang excused himself by saying he only had double Soul Rings and couldn't deal with the Soul Masters sent by the City Lord's mansion at all.
Tang Hao knew that he was from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect and that Luo Sanpao was a mutation of his family's Martial Soul, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. Yu Xiaogang made all sorts of excuses to evade, but Tang Hao didn't listen at all and left without looking back. Yu Xiaogang didn't want to stay and face death, but he couldn't leave Tang San behind either.
Tang San didn't want to implicate the villagers and begged the Village Chief to tie him up and hand him over to the people sent by the City Lord's mansion. Ling Feng brought Liu Long quickly to Saint Soul Village. Without question, they seized the Village Chief, Xiao Wu, and Tang San. As they passed Tang Hao's house, they saw Yu Xiaogang rushing back. He released the underground Haunted Vine according to the method Tang Hao had taught him.
The Haunted Vine broke through the roof, intertwining each other as they climbed upwards, and its branches struck down Liu Long and the guards one by one. Ling Feng used all his skills and struggled fiercely with the Haunted Vine. Ling Feng released a powerful current, making it impossible for the Haunted Vine to get close. Yu Xiaogang called Tang San and Xiao Wu into the house and instructed them.
As long as the Haunted Vine could entangle Ling Feng, his martial power would be unusable. Tang San picked up his custom-made hidden weapon iron nails to attack Ling Feng, but he deflected them one by one. Xiao Wu also came to help, but Ling Feng didn't take it seriously and easily knocked Xiao Wu to the ground. Yu Xiaogang summoned Luo Sanpao.
Tang San, as they had agreed beforehand, used a wooden board to block the current released by Ling Feng. Ling Feng was caught off guard and was tightly entangled by the Haunted Vine. Yu Xiaogang handed Tang San an axe and told him that if he cut off the Haunted Vine, he could obtain his second Soul Ring. Xiao Wu also tied her sleeve dagger to Tang San's wrist.
Tang San swung the large axe downwards, sparks flew, and a huge Soul Ring immediately appeared in the middle of the Haunted Vine. Tang San was just about to reach out to take it when he was electrocuted unconscious by the Haunted Vine's powerful current. Yu Xiaogang arrived in time to block the Haunted Vine's sneak attack, and only then did Tang San survive. Liu Long gradually woke up, and Xiao Wu fought fiercely with him, quickly beating him away.
Xiao Wu returned to the house and saw that both Tang San and Yu Xiaogang were unconscious. She called out to Tang San loudly, but Tang San remained deeply engrossed in a dream and couldn't wake up. Xiao Wu then used all her power to wake Tang San from his deep sleep. Tang San and Xiao Wu woke up Yu Xiaogang. Tang San successfully summoned his double Soul Rings. Both Yu Xiaogang and Xiao Wu were happy for him. Yu Xiaogang volunteered to be a live target to test his power.
Episode 7 Recap
Tang San summoned his Blue Silver Plant, which quickly grew, tightly binding Yu Xiaogang's arm. New vines even parasitized on it. Yu Xiaogang didn't feel any pain at the wound. He was ecstatic. This confirmed that Tang San's second Soul Ring inherited the parasitic ability of the Haunted Vine. In the future, he could stealthily bury Blue Silver Plant seeds on the opponent's skin surface, and then use the Haunted Vine to tightly entangle the opponent.
Tang Hao arrived in Nuoding City disguised. He stopped the City Lord's sedan chair in the street and killed him in broad daylight. That night, Nuoding City erupted in cheers. People automatically canceled the curfew and gathered in the streets to sing and dance. Tang Hao rushed back to Saint Soul Village overnight. He shielded Tang San and Xiao Wu, quietly called Yu Xiaogang out, and gave him a bottle of potion to repair Martial Souls.
After the three of them used it and had a good night's rest, they could fully recover. Tang Hao admitted to killing the Nuoding City Lord. He didn't want to alarm Tang San and wanted to leave without saying goodbye. Tang San suddenly followed him out. He sensed someone approaching through his Blue Silver Plant.
Tang San knelt down and admitted his mistake to Tang Hao, swearing that he would never leave home again and promising never to ask about his past. He just wanted to continue living in seclusion here with Tang Hao, living a peaceful life forever. Tang Hao wanted Tang San to become independent as soon as possible and asked Yu Xiaogang to take him to the most suitable place. After saying these words, Tang Hao left without looking back.
Tang San asked the Master about his father's true identity, but he avoided answering. Tang San wanted to go to the best Soul Master school and become the most powerful Soul Master. Since Tang Hao absolutely forbade Tang San from going to the Martial Soul Hall, Yu Xiaogang gave him a detailed introduction to the Soul Master schools run by the seven major sects. The major sects were very exclusive; once joined, one could never leave for life.
Tang San hesitated. The Master felt that the Monster school in Suotuo City was suitable for Tang San, so he told him in detail about the Monster school. The first headmaster was the famous Shi Lan Ke. Every Soul Master was a top expert. Tang San immediately bowed to Yu Xiaogang to become his teacher. Yu Xiaogang felt he was shallow in knowledge. Tang San thanked him for his continuous help and, most importantly, that his father trusted him.
Yu Xiaogang, unable to refuse the sincere offer, accepted Tang San's kowtow and promised to take the two of them to Suotuo City tomorrow. That night, Tang San couldn't help but feel sad thinking of his father. Xiao Wu also thought of the sadness she felt when she lost her parents. The two sympathized with each other. Xiao Wu proactively offered to be his family. Tang San treated her like a younger sister and swore to protect her forever.
As the location of the Monster school often changed, everyone who wanted to attend had to come to the Rose Hotel to take the entrance exam. Yu Xiaogang brought Xiao Wu and Tang San to the Rose Hotel. Lan De, the headmaster of Shi Lan Ke School, and student Dai Mubai were in charge of admissions. Lan De surprisingly wanted to charge fifty gold Soul Coins per person as a registration fee.
Tang San and Xiao Wu searched their entire bodies and only found 1 gold Soul Coin and some loose change. Su Yuntao brought a girl to register. She took out 50 gold Soul Coins. Dai Mubai told her to go to the backyard and find a room to stay in first. Just as Tang San and Xiao Wu were about to leave, Ou Si Ke, the hotel waiter, prompted by Lan De, suddenly ran out to stop them.
He pretended to intercede with Lan De on their behalf, and only then did Lan De reluctantly agree to let the two of them participate in the entrance test. Zhu Zhuqing aggressively burst in to challenge Dai Mubai to a duel. Lan De strongly objected, so Dai Mubai had to dodge first. Zhu Zhuqing was relentless and wanted to rush in to find Dai Mubai.
Ou Si Ke desperately stopped her, telling her to pay the registration fee first, then she could go to the backyard to duel Dai Mubai. Zhu Zhuqing took out 50 gold Soul Coins and hurried to the backyard. Tang San saw a piece of crystal board on the ground. Although it looked ugly, it contained dragon whisker silk inside. He wanted to buy it. Lan De asked for 10 gold Soul Coins. Tang San was already penniless.
Xiao Wu offered a cinnabar lotus in exchange. Lan De unexpectedly asked for 50 gold Soul Coins with a greedy demand. Tang San had no choice but to give up. Lan De was curious about the purpose of his buying the crystal board. Tang San admitted it was a top-grade refining material. Lan De saw how honest he was and gave it to him for free. Tang San also passed the school's first test because of his upright nature.
Ou Si Ke took Tang San and Xiao Wu to check into the backyard. He saw Zhu Zhuqing looking everywhere for Dai Mubai. It took Ou Si Ke a lot of persuasion to get her to go back to her room and rest. Tang San and Xiao Wu were arranged in a dormitory room. Tang San borrowed a hammer from Ou Si Ke, smashed open the crystal board, and found a dragon whisker silk inside.
Tang San injected vitality into the dragon whisker silk, and it instantly turned into a sharp needle. Once injected into a person's body, it could become a lethal weapon. Tang San quickly collected several dragon whiskers and wanted to share them equally with Xiao Wu. Ou Si Ke heard movement in the room and hurried in to see what was happening. He also warned Tang San and Xiao Wu to be very careful when sleeping and exaggerated to scare them.
That night, as expected, someone broke into the Rose Hotel and caused trouble. He stood in the courtyard and loudly called for people participating in the entrance test to come out and challenge him. Ou Si Ke was grabbed by that person, and he begged for mercy repeatedly, scared.
Episode 8 Recap
The assassin repeatedly claimed to have a feud with Shi Lan Ke School, forbidding anyone from registering here, or they would be his enemy. Because Ou Si Ke colluded with the people from Shi Lan Ke School and even helped the school recruit students, the assassin wanted to kill Ou Si Ke to vent his personal anger. Ou Si Ke was so scared he kept begging for mercy.
Tang San initially thought it was a test question from the school, but seeing that the assassin really intended to kill Ou Si Ke, Tang San immediately summoned his Blue Silver Plant to sneak attack the assassin. Unexpectedly, the assassin was a Soul Sect with four Soul Rings, and the Blue Silver Plant could not even get close to him. In fact, the assassin's name was Zhao Wuji, and he was once an instructor at Shi Lan Ke School.
Zhao Wuji didn't want to prolong the fight. He used the Great Vajra Palm, intending to strike Ou Si Ke dead. Tang San loudly stopped him. Xiao Wu rushed forward to fight Zhao Wuji, but gradually lost ground because her skill was insufficient. Zhu Zhuqing stepped in in time to help Xiao Wu, and Tang San also joined the fray. The three of them surrounded Zhao Wuji. Zhao Wuji used the Great Vajra Palm to blast them all away.
Enraged, he picked up Ou Si Ke and slammed him heavily into a large water tank, appearing to kill him. Tang San stepped forward to defend Ou Si Ke, loudly reprimanding Zhao Wuji. Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing also got up to help. Tang San summoned his Blue Silver Plant to tightly bind Zhao Wuji, but he broke free effortlessly. Xiao Wu seized the opportunity to attack Zhao Wuji but was picked up by him and thrown far away.
Seeing that Xiao Wu was seriously injured and unconscious, Tang San immediately jumped up to fight Zhao Wuji alone. Taking Tang San by surprise, Zhao Wuji gave him a heavy slap on the back. Tang San lost his footing and almost fell. He was completely enraged and used hidden weapons, iron needles from the Xuan Tian Bao Lu, to attack Zhao Wuji. Zhao Wuji was heavily injured.
Unwilling to admit defeat, he used gravity compression to slam Tang San onto the ground. Tang San summoned his Hao Tian Hammer to attack him, but was knocked unconscious by Zhao Wuji on the spot. Tang San woke up in a daze and only then learned that Zhao Wuji was an instructor invited by Shi Lan Ke School to test new students. Zhao Wuji praised their performance, saying they all passed Shi Lan Ke School's entrance exam.
Ou Si Ke also crawled out of the water tank. Tang San finally understood. Ou Si Ke triumphantly came to Tang San and the others to get feedback on his acting. He was also here to study at the school, pretending to be the waiter at the Rose Hotel, and had prepared lines and actions in advance. Dai Mubai witnessed the entire test process.
He saw that Tang San used two moves that were not Soul Skills and clearly stated that the school does not accept unorthodox individuals. Zhao Wuji believed Tang San's moves did not constitute cheating and praised him highly, encouraging him to study hard and believing that Shi Lan Ke School would not disappoint him.
Tang San learned from Ou Si Ke that Shi Lan Ke School invited Zhao Wuji back to help with the test because they were short on money. Zhu Zhuqing did not want to stay and study. She specifically came to challenge Dai Mubai. Unable to withstand Zhu Zhuqing's persistent pestering, Dai Mubai had no choice but to reveal his hand.
Tang San and Xiao Wu were surprised to find that Dai Mubai not only possessed a thousand-year purple Soul Ring, but was also a Hun Zun with three Soul Rings. Zhu Zhuqing felt inferior, but she was unwilling to give up and wanted to practice hard before challenging Dai Mubai again.
Ou Si Ke was unwilling to miss this good opportunity and desperately persuaded Zhu Zhuqing to study at Shi Lan Ke School so she could challenge Dai Mubai at any time. Zhu Zhuqing thought it made sense and paid another tuition fee according to Ou Si Ke's request. After the test ended, Tang San repeatedly recalled the scene just now. He realized that he could only defeat Zhao Wuji by skillfully integrating the Xuan Tian Gong with his Martial Soul.
Xiao Wu was very curious about the Xuan Tian Gong and asked him to try again, but it was unsuccessful. Tang San was completely puzzled. Hu Liena had been hiding in her room. Seeing everyone return to their rooms, she came out to find Ou Si Ke, who was tidying up the fight scene. She gave him a sum of money to stay at Shi Lan Ke School.
Ou Si Ke refused on the grounds that she had not participated in the test, but he was reluctant to part with the money. Hu Liena planned to talk to the headmaster personally tomorrow. Ou Si Ke delivered Zhu Zhuqing's and Hu Liena's money to Lan De overnight. Lan De subconsciously felt that Hu Liena would bring trouble to the school. Early the next morning, Ou Si Ke took Tang San, Xiao Wu, and others to a dilapidated small village.
A sign saying "Shi Lan Ke" stood by the roadside. Ou Si Ke claimed that the school was temporarily located in this village. Dai Mubai and Lan De followed later. All the teachers and students of Shi Lan Ke School were present. Lan De asked Dai Mubai to take the new students to repair the school buildings, and he called Hu Liena aside alone.
Ou Si Ke was curious about Hu Liena's relationship with Lan De and couldn't wait to eavesdrop on their conversation, recording everything on his notebook. Hu Liena directly pointed out that Lan De was unwilling to accept funding from others to run the school, which was why it was so poor. She also heard that the City Lord of Suotuo City intended to revoke Shi Lan Ke School's operating license. Lan De called Hu Liena into a room.
Su Yuntao was being held there. Lan De revealed in front of her that Hu Liena was also from the Martial Soul Hall and didn't understand why she wanted to study at Shi Lan Ke. Hu Liena promised to help Lan De smooth things over with the City Lord to allow Shi Lan Ke to continue operating and also agreed to pay additional tuition fees to audit classes. She admitted that her actions were all because of Dai Mubai.
Lan De reminded her not to use her Martial Soul Hall identity to recruit students here and also not to allow Su Yuntao to enter Shi Lan Ke School. The two immediately came to an agreement. Lan De unlocked Su Yuntao and let him leave the school. Su Yuntao told Hu Liena that he would stay in Suotuo City and protect her safety at all times.
Tang San saw Su Yuntao leave in a hurry and was curious about the reason he came here. His thoughts were quickly interrupted by Ou Si Ke. Ou Si Ke was determined to become an artist. He combined what he saw and heard with his wild imagination to create many bizarre plays and enthusiastically showed them off to Tang San.
Tang San casually commented a few words, and Ou Si Ke treated him as a kindred spirit, opening his heart to him. Tang San tried to avoid him. Yu Xiaogang hurried to find Tang San. He had seen people from the Martial Soul Hall escorting a woman wearing a bamboo hat to register yesterday and thought someone from Nuoding City had come seeking revenge.
After repeatedly confirming that no one was looking for trouble with Tang San, he inquired in detail with Ou Si Ke about the woman wearing the bamboo hat. Ou Si Ke fabricated stories based on his imagination. Tang San guessed that the person Yu Xiaogang was looking for was Su Yuntao.
Episode 9 Recap
Yu Xiaogang tracked Su Yuntao yesterday, and personally saw him enter Suotuo City Lord's Mansion. As a result, the next day the city was plastered with notices. The City Lord admitted Shi Lan Ke School's teaching qualifications. Yu Xiaogang suspected the City Lord made this decision under pressure from the Martial Soul Hall. He was worried and wanted to go see Headmaster Lan De.
Lan De saw Yu Xiaogang from afar and directly flew down from the second floor, excitedly embracing him tightly. Since the Golden Iron Triangle disbanded, they had not seen each other for many years. Lan De couldn't wait to take Yu Xiaogang indoors to reminisce. Yu Xiaogang envied Lan De's free and easy life. Lan De guessed that Ou Si Ke was eavesdropping outside and caught him red-handed on the spot.
Yu Xiaogang asked Lan De about the relationship between the Martial Soul Hall and Shi Lan Ke School. Lan De clearly stated that Shi Lan Ke School would not have ties with anyone, and that both Hu Liena and Zhu Zhuqing came for Dai Mubai. Yu Xiaogang immediately decided to stay at Shi Lan Ke School as an instructor and would teach students for free. Lan De guessed he was doing it for Tang San.
Yu Xiaogang had made a promise to Tang San's father to protect Tang San well. Lan De was curious about Tang San's father's identity, but Yu Xiaogang avoided answering. Lan De grandly introduced Yu Xiaogang to the students, asking him to give them theoretical classes, starting formally tomorrow. Ou Si Ke took Tang San to the dormitory. Dai Mubai was complaining loudly in the room.
He felt that Yu Xiaogang, who only had two Soul Rings, was not qualified to teach at all. Tang San vigorously defended Yu Xiaogang. Yu Xiaogang heard this from outside the door and quickly called Tang San away. Tang San soon found a blacksmith shop in the city and decided to work there part-time to earn living expenses.
Yu Xiaogang accidentally discovered that Lan De was using money to help the lonely elderly people in the village and developed admiration for him. Yu Xiaogang began to teach Martial Soul theory to the new students. Dai Mubai was very dismissive, feeling that practical combat was far more useful than theory. Lan De came up with a good idea. Early the next morning, Lan De asked the new students to help the nearby Yehuo Village deal with a strange incident.
A passing merchant saw a black monster run out of a fire and enter Yehuo Village. He and Yu Xiaogang took the new students to the village entrance and left, wanting to test their ability to work together. Dai Mubai volunteered to be the overall commander of this operation. Zhu Zhuqing was not convinced, and the two immediately got into a fierce argument. Ou Si Ke quickly mediated between them.
Dai Mubai and the other five (a total of six people) arrived in the village. Tang San noticed that there were many chickens in the village and found it strange, but the others didn't ask much. They continued walking and saw a burnt house, but the grass around the house was still green. Tang San thought the fire must have been blocked and didn't spread. Dai Mubai wasn't sure, so he went to the village chief to understand the situation.
Hu Liena stood in front of the house and observed it carefully for a long time. Dai Mubai asked the village chief about the black monster. The village chief repeatedly insisted it was just a simple fire and there was no monster in the village at all. Tang San asked the village chief for details about the burnt house at the village entrance. The village chief tried hard to cover up, claiming the villagers put out the fire in time.
He promised to treat them to dinner that night and also promised everyone a gold soul coin. Dai Mubai wanted to go find the villagers to understand the situation, but unexpectedly Hu Liena had already found out. The village chief had no choice but to admit that on the day of the fire, he personally saw a black monster with red eyes rush out of the fire.
Since then, no abnormality was found in the village, and he did not continue to investigate. Dai Mubai promised to thoroughly investigate the truth for free. The village chief then had to say that there was also a surviving child named Ma Hongjun from that family, but he had disappeared due to the shock. Dai Mubai asked everyone to split up and look for Ma Hongjun.
Tang San asked the village chief why there were so many chickens in the village; he didn't know either. The village chief revealed that the big fire had killed Ma Hongjun's father. Tang San suspected Ma Hongjun went to pay respects at his father's grave, so he took Xiao Wu to look for him. Ou Si Ke wanted to stay and engage in artistic creation.
Episode 10 Recap
Tang San and Xiao Wu came to the grave site, but did not see Ma Hongjun, nor did they find a new grave. The two of them went to the village to inquire about news. Besides learning that Ma Hongjun had not eaten or stayed at any household, they found nothing else. Tang San discovered a strange thing: there were clearly many chickens in the village, but there was no chicken manure on the ground.
He was utterly puzzled and had no choice but to take Xiao Wu to other places to investigate. Hu Liena quickly found Ma Hongjun in the burnt house that was a complete mess. The red-eyed black monster was also there. Ma Hongjun was so scared he ran off, and the monster instantly disappeared. Tang San and Xiao Wu rushed over upon hearing the news and asked Hu Liena about the cause.
Hu Liena casually answered a few words, claiming over and over that she was just an auditor. Tang San and Xiao Wu had to return to the village chief's house first. Hu Liena promised to notify them if she saw the monster again. Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing walked around the village for an afternoon and finally found Ma Hongjun. When Ma Hongjun saw them, he hurriedly ran away.
The two of them chased desperately, all the way to the vicinity of the village chief's house. Ma Hongjun suddenly disappeared. Dai Mubai asked the village chief, who knew nothing about it. Ou Si Ke also testified that he hadn't seen Ma Hongjun. Zhu Zhuqing challenged Dai Mubai again, and accidentally knocked over the straw shed in the courtyard. The two of them had no choice but to set the straw shed back up.
Tang San and Xiao Wu asked the village chief about Ma Hongjun's situation. The village chief understated that Ma Hongjun's family had suffered a misfortune, and he was afraid to see people due to fear. He said Ma Hongjun would naturally come out after they left.
The village chief promised to settle Ma Hongjun in a villager's home and urged Tang San and the others to leave as soon as possible, telling them to focus on cultivation and not waste time on small matters in the village. Lan De and Yu Xiaogang camped at the village entrance, waiting for the students to return. Lan De did not dare to approach the village; the black monster was very sensitive.
Once it sensed powerful Soul Masters, it would hide and not show itself. Lan De had no choice but to send the students into the village, hoping they would lure the monster out. Tang San asked Dai Mubai for leave, wanting to look for Ma Hongjun again after dark, and revealed that Hu Liena had seen the monster. Dai Mubai quickly went to find Hu Liena to clarify.
It turned out that Ma Hongjun was hiding in the village chief's house. He wanted to see his father, which was why he went out secretly despite the village chief's dissuasion. The village chief clearly stated that his father was no longer a human and promised to find a way for them to meet after Tang San and others left. Hu Liena saw the monster again in the burnt house.
The monster was scared and dodged left and right, refusing to leave the house. Hu Liena guessed that it still had something unfinished to do. The monster was scared and fled in a panic. Hu Liena chased after it relentlessly. That night, Tang San and Xiao Wu sat in the courtyard and talked.
Xiao Wu yearned for a life where she could do whatever she wanted, but the more people she met, the more rules there were, which she was very unaccustomed to. Tang San felt that having many rules wasn't a bad thing; otherwise, the two of them wouldn't have met. Xiao Wu wanted to stay in school forever so she could always be with Tang San.
Xiao Wu suddenly heard the sound of arguing and quickly took Tang San to watch the excitement. From a distance, they saw Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai arguing. Zhu Zhuqing claimed to be Dai Mubai's fiancée and was here to break off the engagement. Dai Mubai was very resistant to this marriage and had long wanted to break off the engagement.
Zhu Zhuqing condemned Dai Mubai for kissing her back then, which made her family mistakenly think they were very much in love. Zhu Zhuqing became more and more emotional as she spoke, finally crying and running away. Hu Liena arrived afterward. When she learned that Zhu Zhuqing was Dai Mubai's fiancée, she came to negotiate with Dai Mubai. She promised to tell Dai Mubai the monster's whereabouts, provided Dai Mubai explained his relationship with Zhu Zhuqing in detail.
Dai Mubai was eager to find the monster, so he followed Hu Liena to that empty house. Tang San was worried Dai Mubai would be at a disadvantage, so he followed closely with Xiao Wu. Tang San found the street deserted; all the chickens that were there during the day had disappeared. Hu Liena took Dai Mubai to the house and opened a door that couldn't be seen from the outside.
Outside the door was also a village, but it was empty. The two of them went into the village to investigate. Tang San and Xiao Wu also followed, but found no clues. They returned to the house and suddenly saw a chicken. Xiao Wu determined that the chicken was there to monitor them. Tang San took Xiao Wu out through that door again and searched the empty village. Xiao Wu felt a sad atmosphere in the village.
They suddenly saw Dai Mubai collapsed by the roadside. Hu Liena claimed she had just lured the monster away. Tang San saw that she had an injury on her hand but didn't think too much of it, and carried Dai Mubai back to the house. Hu Liena only knew that the monster was very strong and Dai Mubai had been injured head-on by it. The next morning, Dai Mubai woke up groggily.
He felt sore all over and clearly remembered that shortly after he and Hu Liena passed through that door last night, the black monster emitting fire appeared. Neither Hu Liena nor Dai Mubai was a match for the monster and were knocked unconscious on the spot. Tang San told Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing to go find the village chief and say the monster appeared near his house, telling them to lure the village chief out.
Tang San found something was off about the village chief, and there was an extra pair of used bowls and chopsticks in his kitchen, suspecting that Ma Hongjun had been hiding at the village chief's house all along. Dai Mubai followed Tang San to the village chief's house and found that Zhu Zhuqing had already found Ma Hongjun. Ma Hongjun looked dazed. Zhu Zhuqing quickly went to fetch water to wash his face. Tang San heard that the monster had a chance to kill Dai Mubai but spared him. Ou Si Ke had a sudden thought that the monster ate chicken manure.
Episode 11 Recap
Tang San re-examined the clues everyone had gathered. He concluded that the fire was an accident. If Ma Hongjun's father was burned to death, but there was no new grave in the village, Tang San suspected that Ma Hongjun's father was either a Soul Beast or a Soul Master. Ma Hongjun protested vehemently, admitting that his father was the fiery unidentified object.
That night, Ma Hongjun woke up groggily, discovering his house was on fire and his father had turned into that form. No matter how he called out, his father remained unresponsive. The village chief arrived in time to save Ma Hongjun, and a passing merchant told the Shi Lan Ke School's school head about it.
The village chief worried that the students would kill Ma Hongjun's father, so he concealed the matter, intending to help Ma Hongjun find his father after they left. Dai Mubai suggested taking Ma Hongjun to see his father. Tang San saw the chicken outside the door, with a lot of chicken manure nearby, and found it very suspicious. Dai Mubai took Ma Hongjun, Tang San, and Zhu Zhuqing to that house and went in through that door again.
Dai Mubai was worried that they wouldn't be a match for the monster if they fought, so he told Zhu Zhuqing to protect Ma Hongjun and leave, then go ask the school head for help. Early in the morning, the village chief was called by Hu Liena and Xiao Wu to look at the fiery monster, but halfway there, the two of them disappeared.
The village chief rushed home and saw Ou Si Ke alone in the house, while the others were gone. The village chief was eager to inquire about the whereabouts of the others. Ou Si Ke revealed their movements and said the entrance was in the unoccupied house. He realized he had spoken out of turn, but it was too late. The village chief stealthily knocked Ou Si Ke unconscious.
The four of them, Dai Mubai and the others, walked while looking around. Suddenly, many sparks appeared before their eyes, and the fiery black monster suddenly emerged. Ma Hongjun recognized it as his father and shouted loudly, but the monster was unresponsive. Dai Mubai fought the monster, using his White Tiger Severing Wind Wave to attack it, but the monster was unharmed.
Zhu Zhuqing used her Nether White Claw to attack the monster, but aside from splashing many sparks, she still couldn't injure the monster. Ma Hongjun begged Tang San not to harm his father. Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai respectively used Nether Mutation and White Tiger Vajra Claws to deal with the monster, but the monster remained completely still. Tang San immediately summoned his Blue Silver Plant, wrapped the monster, dragged it away, and hid it behind him.
Dai Mubai gritted his teeth in anger. The village chief arrived shortly after with the unconscious Ou Si Ke. Taking advantage of the chaos, he took Ma Hongjun away, and falsely claimed that the students were Soul Masters who would capture his father, study the cause of his mutation, and finally kill him.
The village chief took Ma Hongjun back to his burnt-down home and set up an invisible wall of fire in the courtyard, telling Ma Hongjun to wait inside the house for his Martial Soul to appear. Ou Si Ke woke up groggily and shouted loudly for Ma Hongjun not to go home. Ma Hongjun didn't listen at all and entered the house by passing through the wall of fire. Xiao Wu and Hu Liena saw this scene.
Xiao Wu quickly went back to report to Tang San and the others. Just as the village chief was about to take Ou Si Ke into the house, Hu Liena acupuncture-pointed him on the spot. Tang San forbade Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing from harming the monster, explaining that the monster only retaliated because they actively attacked it yesterday. Tang San also discovered that the chickens in the village were Martial Souls used to monitor them.
Tang San deliberately mentioned the lack of chicken manure in front of a chicken, and as a result, there was chicken manure on the ground today. Dai Mubai suspected that everyone in the village was a Soul Master; otherwise, they couldn't control so many Martial Souls. Hu Liena wanted to go inside and see the true form of that Martial Soul. Xiao Wu saw a multi-colored chicken next to Ma Hongjun through the crack in the door.
Hu Liena recognized it as a Phoenix and guessed that the Phoenix was Ma Hongjun's Martial Soul. Xiao Wu had many questions in her mind. Just then, the black monster arrived with Tang San and others, so Xiao Wu eagerly asked the village chief about the whole story. When the village chief learned that the Phoenix had appeared in the house, he cheered joyfully. That was the Evil Fire Phoenix he had long awaited.
The village chief revealed the secret: three hundred years ago, Soul Masters fought in the Douluo Continent, and the Soul Master who possessed the Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul also participated in that great century-long battle. The people in the village were descendants of that Soul Master, but because they didn't have Soul Rings, they could never become Soul Masters.
The village chief used a special medicine to make Ma Hongjun possess the mutated Evil Fire Phoenix as his Martial Soul. That night, the village chief wanted to take the sleeping Ma Hongjun back for experiments. His father tried to obstruct him in every way, but was controlled by the medicine and couldn't help himself. His Martial Soul began burning within his body, and he ultimately turned into the fiery black monster.
Tang San wanted to help Ma Hongjun's father and also tell Ma Hongjun the truth. The village chief resolutely refused, stating that he had researched for many years specifically to use Ma Hongjun to make his clan rise again. Lan De waited for a long time, but did not see Tang San and the others return. He was worried, so he went directly to the village to see what was happening.
The village chief directed Ma Hongjun from outside to touch the body of the Evil Fire Phoenix. Ma Hongjun had no choice but to comply. He successfully awakened the Evil Fire Phoenix and instantly gained two Soul Rings. The village chief tried his best to instigate, falsely accusing Tang San and Dai Mubai of coming to harm his father. Ma Hongjun believed it. Zhu Zhuqing took the opportunity to hold the village chief hostage.
Ma Hongjun was enraged and used his Evil Fire to attack them. Dai Mubai resisted desperately and was knocked to the ground by Ma Hongjun's powerful strength. Tang San tried to summon his Blue Silver Plant to deal with Ma Hongjun, but was unsuccessful. Dai Mubai got back up to confront Ma Hongjun. The fiery black monster suddenly embraced Ma Hongjun. Ma Hongjun cried out and fell to the ground, losing consciousness.
Ma Hongjun woke up groggily in a dream, seeing his father right beside him. Everything in the house was perfectly intact, with no trace of being burned. His father clearly explained that he had burned his own Martial Soul and life to create a space where he gave all his strength and Martial Soul to Ma Hongjun, encouraging Ma Hongjun to create his own future.
His father said goodbye to Ma Hongjun, promising to give him all the memories, and that he would wake up after knowing the truth. Ma Hongjun woke up from his painful memories. He was like a different person, fiercely condemning the village chief's actions. The village chief had tormented his father his entire life and also destroyed his home. The village chief kept saying that he had to do it for the sake of his clan's rise.
Ma Hongjun wanted to kill the village chief to avenge his father. Tang San desperately tried to stop him, but Ma Hongjun was already out of control. Tang San attempted to subdue him with his Blue Silver Plant, but the Blue Silver Plant was quickly burned through by the fire. Dai Mubai, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing collectively went forward to deal with Ma Hongjun, but they were all knocked to the ground by him.
Episode 12 Recap
Ma Hongjun was completely out of control, his whole body was like a large fireball, and everywhere he went, raging flames ignited. School head Lan De arrived in time to subdue him, but Ma Hongjun's body was still on fire, and the fire would continue to burn. The entire village would be burned down soon. Lan De could defeat Ma Hongjun and suppress him, but he couldn't put out the great fire, unless Ma Hongjun was awakened or killed.
Even if Ma Hongjun was awakened, he would quickly exhaust his Martial Soul and life, and the final outcome would still be death. Disregarding Lan De's dissuasion, Tang San decided to try and wake up Ma Hongjun. He endured the pain of being scorched by the fire to pull Ma Hongjun up and persuade him to put away his Martial Soul. Ma Hongjun hated the village and the village chief.
Tang San earnestly persuaded him, promising to continue being his brother and asking the school head to be his teacher. Tang San encouraged Ma Hongjun to bravely face the present and create his own world. Ma Hongjun was moved by his sincere words and immediately put away his Martial Soul. The great fire instantly extinguished. Ou Si Ke brought a basin of cold water and splashed it on Ma Hongjun.
Seeing the fire extinguished, he thought it was his own doing and felt smug. Dai Mubai, Tang San, Ou Si Ke, and others came together to confront the village chief and demand that he hand over the medicine for mutated Martial Souls. The village chief was forced to take out the only bottle of medicine left, repeatedly claiming it was given to him by someone named Bule.
The village chief had given this medicine to everyone in the village, and Bule had also instructed him to send the Soul Masters who successfully mutated to Suotuo City Soul Fighting Field to participate in matches. If the Soul Master won, Bule would actively contact the village chief. Tang San gave the bottle of medicine to Ma Hongjun to handle. Mutated Martial Souls had always been a problem that Martial Soul Hall had not overcome.
Hu Liena wanted to buy the medicine from Ma Hongjun and send it to Martial Soul Hall for research, so that more Soul Masters like the villagers of Yehuo Village could rise up. She promised Ma Hongjun an unimaginably high price. Ma Hongjun resolutely refused. This medicine had killed his father, and he didn't want more people to suffer this kind of pain. Dai Mubai, Tang San, and others took Ma Hongjun away from Yehuo Village.
Tang San asked Lan De to keep Ma Hongjun. Lan De knew he didn't have money for tuition but still agreed to accept him. Ou Si Ke told Ma Hongjun that after graduating, he should serve Shi Lan Ke School. Lan De took the students back to the school, prepared bedding for Ma Hongjun, and asked Dai Mubai, Ou Si Ke, and others to look after Ma Hongjun.
The school head called Tang San and Xiao Wu away to see Yu Xiaogang. To thank Tang San for saving his life, Ma Hongjun voluntarily helped him wash his sheets. Ou Si Ke insisted that he was the one who saved Ma Hongjun, and vividly described how he woke Ma Hongjun up by splashing him with cold water, intending to get Ma Hongjun to wash his sheets too.
Dai Mubai couldn't stand it and couldn't help but tease Ou Si Ke a few times. Yu Xiaogang reminded Tang San and Xiao Wu to stay away from Hu Liena. Lan De felt that Yu Xiaogang was too sensitive, saying that Hu Liena came for Dai Mubai and wouldn't harm Tang San. Ou Si Ke thought Ma Hongjun's experience was very dramatic and wanted to write it down to make a fortune. He tried his best to please Ma Hongjun.
Just then, Ningrongrong, the little princess of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, arrived at Shi Lan Ke School in a dusty state to register with the school head. Ou Si Ke was deeply attracted by her clear and refined appearance and didn't recover for a long time until Ningrongrong woke him up. He enthusiastically helped Ningrongrong carry her luggage. Ningrongrong proactively greeted Ma Hongjun, but Ma Hongjun remained expressionless and said nothing.
Ningrongrong became angry and embarrassed, speaking rudely to Ma Hongjun. Ma Hongjun suddenly lost control and attacked Ningrongrong. Dai Mubai rushed over upon hearing this and quickly subdued Ma Hongjun. Ma Hongjun suddenly became clear-headed and repeatedly apologized to Dai Mubai, then fainted. Everyone quickly carried Ma Hongjun into the dormitory. Yu Xiaogang diagnosed that Ma Hongjun's condition was temporary loss of control caused by his Martial Soul mutation. Ou Si Ke was so scared he avoided him.
Xiao Wu took Ningrongrong to see Lan De and briefly introduced the situation at Shi Lan Ke School. Ningrongrong was very disappointed with the school's facilities and accommodation conditions. Lan De came to see Ningrongrong upon hearing the news. Ningrongrong took out a letter of recommendation from her father, Ning Fengzhi. Lan De was completely unconvinced and used the excuse that this year's enrollment was full.
Ningrongrong promised to waive the money Lan De had borrowed from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. Lan De immediately changed his mind and accepted Ningrongrong as a student. By now, Shi Lan Ke School had a total of seven students. Early in the morning, the school head told Ningrongrong to run twenty laps to train her stamina. Ou Si Ke voluntarily accompanied her. Ningrongrong suspected Lan De was deliberately targeting her.
She didn't even finish one lap before going shopping in Suotuo City. Ou Si Ke had to finish the run alone. Ma Hongjun was worried about going berserk again, so he surrounded his bed with iron plates. Tang San felt this wasn't necessary and firmly believed Ma Hongjun could control his Martial Soul. Dai Mubai made sarcastic remarks from the side, claiming only true strong individuals could do that. Ma Hongjun was greatly angered.
Tang San didn't believe it and swore to change this situation. Zhu Zhuqing's purpose in coming to the school was to become stronger, and the first step was to defeat Dai Mubai. Xiao Wu's goal was to defeat Lan De, because defeating Lan De would allow her to change the school's rules, and then she could enter the boys' dormitory. Zhu Zhuqing advised Xiao Wu not to trust men easily.
Xiao Wu thought Tang San was very good and also revealed that Hu Liena had come for Dai Mubai. Ningrongrong didn't return to the school until it was dark. Lan De severely reprimanded her in person, knowing she hadn't finished her run, and listed everything she had done in Suotuo City. Ou Si Ke tried his best to defend Ningrongrong. Lan De advised Ningrongrong to leave the school as early as possible.
Ningrongrong was unconvinced, thinking the other students in the school were not as powerful as her. Lan De then had everyone demonstrate their Martial Souls and skills. Only then did Ningrongrong realize that everyone except Xiao Wu was stronger than her.
Episode 13 Recap
Ningrongrong boasted that she was the best support-type Soul Master and even summoned her Martial Soul, Qibao Amber Pagoda, to show off. Lan De was quite dismissive, thinking her talent was not as good as Ou Si Ke's and her Martial Soul power was not as strong as Tang San's. He advised her to go home as early as possible.
He also told Ningrongrong that Ou Si Ke was a support-type Soul Master with full inherent Soul Power, which made Ningrongrong sulk and storm back to her room. Lan De reminded the other six students to abide by the rules here, otherwise, they should leave voluntarily. Dai Mubai thought about going to the Suotuo City Soul Fighting Field overnight to participate in Soul Master competitions to improve his power.
Tang San and Xiao Wu also wanted to go together to see the excitement. They met Ma Hongjun head-on. Ma Hongjun was eager to try, wanting to find Bule through the competition to avenge his father. Tang San took him along. Ou Si Ke came to find Lan De to plead for Ningrongrong. Lan De didn't really want to drive Ningrongrong away and agreed not to punish Ningrongrong with running laps anymore.
Ou Si Ke took the opportunity to ask Lan De about Ma Hongjun's mutated Martial Soul. Yu Xiaogang explained the reason in detail. The fact that the evil fire burning from Ma Hongjun's Martial Soul didn't burn himself should be the result of his father burning his Martial Soul to protect his son. Ou Si Ke recorded all this knowledge in his notebook.
Ou Si Ke couldn't wait to bring good news to Ningrongrong and advised her to stay in the school with peace of mind. Ningrongrong didn't want to leave at all. She was very interested in Ou Si Ke's Martial Soul and showed off her Soul Skills one by one. Unable to resist Ningrongrong's persistent pestering, Ou Si Ke had no choice but to summon his Martial Soul. Ningrongrong was stunned. To defeat Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing practiced day and night.
Seeing this scene, Lan De earnestly advised her to let go of her knot and figure out what she truly needed in her heart. Zhu Zhuqing fell into contemplation. Lan De bought betting slips for the Soul Fighting Field and planned to go back and study them carefully. Dai Mubai and the other three soon arrived at the Soul Fighting Field. It was packed with people and very lively.
Dai Mubai helped Ma Hongjun get his Soul Fighting badge and then went up to the stage first to compete. Tang San encouraged Ma Hongjun to perform well. He and Xiao Wu watched from below, observing who might be interested in Ma Hongjun. Ma Hongjun chose his opponent for the match. As soon as he got on stage, he used his mutated Martial Soul to attack, rushing towards his opponent spitting fire all over his body.
The opponent was so scared he retreated without fighting. Ma Hongjun won several matches in a row, but the fierce flames on him not only burned the facilities on the field but also injured the spectators. Bule, the arena boss, was overjoyed to learn that the mutated Martial Soul, Evil Fire Phoenix, had appeared. After the matches ended, the money Ma Hongjun won from the matches was not enough for the compensation.
Tang San had to borrow money from Dai Mubai to compensate for the losses at the Soul Fighting Field. Lan De saw the Suotuo City tabloid and learned that Dai Mubai had taken Ma Hongjun and others to the Soul Fighting Field competition last night. Ma Hongjun's mutated Martial Soul had shocked the entire arena. He was furious and severely lectured Dai Mubai and the others. Ma Hongjun lied, claiming he went alone. Lan De didn't believe him at all.
Tang San admitted he went with Ma Hongjun. Dai Mubai tried his best to distance himself, but Lan De had already guessed that he had taken Ma Hongjun and the others. Ma Hongjun didn't want to implicate Lan De and voluntarily offered to leave the school. Lan De used the excuse that Ma Hongjun hadn't paid tuition and firmly refused to let him leave, also forbidding anyone from going to the Soul Fighting Field for matches.
Yu Xiaogang supported the students going to the Soul Fighting Field competitions, as it could help them improve their power. He asked Dai Mubai to accompany Ma Hongjun to train in controlling his Martial Soul. Ma Hongjun tried several times but couldn't do it. Dai Mubai was strict with him and didn't go easy. Ma Hongjun failed repeatedly, but he didn't get discouraged and continued to practice again and again.
He even practiced at the Soul Fighting Field at night, but the result was always injuring his opponents, forcing him to compensate for the damages. Yu Xiaogang guided Ma Hongjun, and he gradually found the knack, but he still couldn't fully control his Martial Soul. Ou Si Ke desperately tried to please Ningrongrong, bringing meals to her dormitory, but Ningrongrong didn't appreciate it and was picky about the food.
Ou Si Ke quickly went back to exchange it, but she was still not satisfied. Ou Si Ke continued to go back to exchange it. Dai Mubai, Tang San, and others watched the show from the side. When Ningrongrong learned that Ma Hongjun was practicing controlling his Martial Soul, she quickly came down to advise him, but Ma Hongjun was determined. He would rather get injured than fail the practice. Dai Mubai retorted Ningrongrong sharply.
Ningrongrong sulked and returned to her dormitory without looking back. Zhu Zhuqing advised Ningrongrong to get rid of her princess attitude and not be angry with Dai Mubai. Ningrongrong thought she was defending Dai Mubai. Zhu Zhuqing forbade her from speaking nonsense. After Ma Hongjun's unremitting efforts, coupled with Dai Mubai's strict supervision, Ma Hongjun was finally able to control his Martial Soul freely. Dai Mubai took Ma Hongjun to the Soul Fighting Field for a match.
Ma Hongjun successfully defeated Dai Mubai using his Martial Soul. Bule instantly took a liking to Xiao Wu and sent people to capture Xiao Wu to keep him company. Tang San took Xiao Wu back to the school, but they were stopped by a group of strangers halfway.
Episode 14 Recap
Bule sent thugs to capture Xiao Wu. Tang San summoned his Blue Silver Plant and scared the thugs away. Tang San and Xiao Wu followed closely to that tavern. Bule ordered the thugs to kill Tang San and bring Xiao Wu to his room. Tang San and Xiao Wu teamed up and knocked out all the thugs effortlessly. Bule was scared out of his wits.
When he learned that Tang San was the Soul Master who awakened Ma Hongjun, he promised to make him bigger and stronger. Tang San didn't buy it at all and forced Bule to give him the medicine for Martial Soul mutation. Bule told him to get it from the cabinet himself. Xiao Wu opened the cabinet and triggered a mechanism inside. A poisonous gas drifted out, and Xiao Wu was unfortunately poisoned.
She could only last for half a month at most. Tang San threatened Bule to hand over the antidote. Bule confessed that only people from the headquarters had the antidote. He gave Tang San a letter, telling him to go to Xing Dou Town in three days to meet the person from the headquarters.
Tang San took Xiao Wu to find Yu Xiaogang and Lan De to discuss it, wanting to go to Xing Dou Town to find the antidote to save Xiao Wu. Yu Xiaogang was worried about the two of them going alone because there was a forest next to Xing Dou Town, and he was concerned that Soul Beasts from the forest might attack them.
Lan De wanted to take the other students with him, but he was worried that Hu Liena would report to the Martial Soul Hall, so he lied, claiming he was helping Ou Si Ke improve his Soul Power. Ou Si Ke didn't want to go and wanted to stay behind to work on his art creation.
Lan De ordered him to go and also told the students to coordinate their stories, instructing everyone to hide the real reason from Hu Liena. Lan De let Yu Xiaogang take Tang San and Xiao Wu ahead while he and the other students would follow behind. Lan De revealed that Ou Si Ke had already reached full Soul Power last year. Ningrongrong didn't believe it and asked him to demonstrate it on the spot.
Ningrongrong couldn't help but look at him with admiration. When Hu Liena learned that Tang San and Xiao Wu were going to Xing Dou Town, she suspected that they had already met Bule. She forced them to hand over Bule, promising them the best reward. Tang San flatly refused. Yu Xiaogang took Xiao Wu and Tang San to Xing Dou Town and found that the people there were rushing and the atmosphere was strange, full of mystery.
They walked cautiously, observing the people and things around them. Seeing the carcass of a flamingo hanging at a street stall, Tang San was greatly puzzled. Yu Xiaogang suddenly saw unidentified people following them. He publicly displayed his seven Soul Ring power, scaring those people away, and they fled in a panic. Yu Xiaogang took Tang San and Xiao Wu to find an inn to stay. Xiao Wu was curious how Yu Xiaogang had seven Soul Ring power.
Yu Xiaogang had to admit that it was just a humorous prop made by Ou Si Ke, only temporarily used to scare opponents. Tang San wanted to take the letter to meet the person from the headquarters, and Xiao Wu also went with him. The streets were bustling with people coming and going. Xiao Wu wondered why so many people came here to hunt Soul Beasts. Tang San believed this was due to the overall environment.
Only by changing the rule of survival that involves killing Soul Beasts to improve Martial Soul could humans and Soul Beasts coexist peacefully. Xiao Wu immediately felt sad and tentatively asked Tang San if, one day, she were chased by thousands of Soul Masters, she hoped he would pretend not to know her. Tang San clearly stated that he would protect Xiao Wu at all costs. Xiao Wu felt warmth in her heart.
Tang San waited but the person from the headquarters never came. Seeing that the poison in Xiao Wu's body was spreading day by day, he had no choice but to ask Yu Xiaogang for help. Yu Xiaogang suggested asking people from the Martial Soul Hall for help. Just then, Yu Xiaogang heard that a group of students was blocked by Soul Beasts, and one of them had a White Tiger Martial Soul.
Yu Xiaogang guessed that Lan De, Dai Mubai, and the others were in danger and immediately rushed to rescue them. Just as Tang San and Xiao Wu were about to return to the inn, they were surrounded by the group of unidentified people. Fortunately, Ye Zhiqiu took action in time, killing the two leaders on the spot. Tang San recognized that Ye Zhiqiu was the person from the headquarters and begged him to detoxify Xiao Wu.
Ye Zhiqiu told Tang San to go to Xing Dou Forest tomorrow to find a woman named Du Gu Yan. Du Gu Yan was about to hunt a Soul Beast to advance to the third Soul Ring. Tang San just needed to shatter a small bottle filled with yellowish-green poisonous gas in front of her. He promised to detoxify Xiao Wu after the matter was done.
Yu Xiaogang met Lan De and the students halfway and learned that they were safe. He took them back to the inn. Tang San reported in detail to Lan De about what Ye Zhiqiu asked him to do. Lan De wanted to study the bottle of medicine with Yu Xiaogang and repeatedly instructed Tang San not to tell anyone about it. Tang San took Xiao Wu out and immediately ran into Hu Liena.
Hu Liena persistently questioned the progress of the matter, but Tang San refused to answer. Yu Xiaogang advised Tang San to think twice. If he shattered the bottle in front of Du Gu Yan, he might poison everyone present. Tang San was anxious to save Xiao Wu; he didn't want to wait any longer and was willing to take the risk.
Lan De found out that Du Gu Yan had entered Xing Dou Forest, and with her were a Soul Saint with seven Soul Rings and a Soul Douluo with eight Soul Rings. Yu Xiaogang didn't want Tang San to take risks and suggested finding Ye Zhiqiu's weakness first, and then using that to find the antidote. Yu Xiaogang agreed to take the students to Xing Dou Forest together, letting them each use their abilities to clear various obstacles.
Yu Xiaogang and Lan De took the students to Xing Dou Forest, lying that they were looking for a thousand-year-old Soul Beast for Ou Si Ke to improve his Martial Soul Power. They encouraged everyone to keep their spirits up and be wary of the various Soul Beasts in the forest. Lan De asked Ou Si Ke to display his Tool Martial Soul to replenish everyone's physical and mental strength. Ou Si Ke hesitated repeatedly, but couldn't resist Lan De's persistent urging. He had no choice but to summon his Martial Soul, the Big Sausage, which made everyone laugh.
Episode 15 Recap
Ma Hongjun ate the Martial Soul Big Sausage summoned by Ou Si Ke. Ningrongrong also wanted to eat it, so Lan De asked him to give one to everyone. Ou Si Ke had no choice but to do as he was told; he felt very embarrassed. Ningrongrong thought it was amazing the first time she saw his Martial Soul. Hu Liena took the opportunity to persuade Ou Si Ke to join the Martial Soul Hall.
Ou Si Ke was not interested and enthusiastically recommended the plays he had written to her, but Hu Liena avoided him. Lan De reminded everyone to be careful everywhere; although this was only the outer area of the Xing Dou Forest, very fierce Soul Beasts could still appear. Tang San casually mentioned that he had poked out the eyes of a Human Faced Demon Spider when he was a child.
Yu Xiaogang was very surprised; Tang San didn't even have a Martial Soul back then, so it was impossible for him to injure a Human Faced Demon Spider. Tang San didn't dare to mention using the Xuan Tian Gong Method and quickly found an excuse to cover it up.
Yu Xiaogang heard that Human Faced Demon Spiders were very retaliatory, so Lan De told Tang San to stay by his side to avoid being attacked by the Human Faced Demon Spider. Yu Xiaogang summoned Luo San Pao. Luo San Pao smelled Su Yuntao nearby. Yu Xiaogang had previously made it remember Su Yuntao's scent, which was why Luo San Pao could detect Su Yuntao tracking them at this moment.
He wanted to find Su Yuntao to clarify the real reason for Hu Liena's visit to Shi Lan Ke. Before leaving, he also handed the bottle of poison to Lan De for safekeeping. Lan De led the students through the forest. Suddenly, he felt something approaching them. Tang San used his Zi Jin Mo Tong and saw it was a Phoenix-tail Cockscomb Snake. Zhu Zhuqing revealed her Martial Soul and attacked the snake, but missed and almost fell.
Fortunately, Dai Mubai hugged her from behind in time. Tang San and Ningrongrong each summoned their Martial Souls to deal with the snake together. The snake was very fast and couldn't be approached. Finally, Lan De subdued the snake. Just as he was about to kill it, the Seven Soul Ring Snake Matron Chao Tianxiang rushed over to stop him. Lan De bargained with Chao Tianxiang, asking her to pay money to buy the snake's Soul Ring.
Chao Tianxiang firmly refused. Lan De ordered Ou Si Ke to kill the snake, and they successfully absorbed the snake's Soul Ring. Chao Tianxiang was furious and raged. In a fit of anger, she attacked Lan De but was defeated by him. Chao Tianxiang suddenly heard her husband Meng Shu's call for help and rushed over to see what was happening.
On the other side, Yu Xiaogang found Su Yuntao, but secretly discovered that he had been attacked and killed by a figure in black. He had Luo San Pao track the figure in black and found that the figure in black was looking for the Xing Dou Beast King in the forest to discuss cooperation. Chao Tianxiang quickly found Meng Shu.
The couple accompanied Du Gu Yan to the Xing Dou Forest to hunt Soul Beasts and improve her Soul Ring. A Titan White Ape passed by. Chao Tianxiang wanted to work with her husband to fight the Titan White Ape, but Meng Shu felt they couldn't possibly win and could only bypass the area. Ou Si Ke successfully absorbed the Phoenix-tail Cockscomb Snake's Soul Ring. Unexpectedly, his next Soul Skill turned out to be Kiwi.
Ningrongrong finished it in two bites. Ou Si Ke told her to eat it with the skin. Ningrongrong gave some to Ma Hongjun to try. After eating it, Ma Hongjun flew up into the air. Although it only lasted for half a stick of incense's time, it could be life-saving at a crucial moment. Hu Liena persuaded Ma Hongjun to join the Martial Soul Hall, but Ma Hongjun politely declined.
Lan De tested everyone's Soul Power and found that currently only Tang San and Xiao Wu could advance to the next Soul Ring. Originally, they could have taken the opportunity to hunt Soul Beasts in the Xing Dou Forest to advance their Soul Rings. But Lan De noticed that something was wrong nearby and wanted to quickly take the students out of the big forest.
Tang San didn't want to give up just like that; he wanted to find Du Gu Yan to get the antidote to save Xiao Wu. Lan De's mind was made up. Just as he was about to take the students away, the Titan Giant Ape suddenly appeared. Lan De fought intensely with it and was knocked unconscious on the spot. Dai Mubai intervened in time but was also quickly defeated.
Chao Tianxiang, Meng Shu, and Du Gu Yan saw this scene from afar and were so scared that they quickly fled. Tang San, Ma Hongjun, and others were no match for the Titan Giant Ape. Seeing this, Tang San could only take Xiao Wu and run away, but the Titan Giant Ape knocked Tang San unconscious and took Xiao Wu away. Lan De and the others quickly came over to wake up Tang San.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Wu had been captured by the Titan Giant Ape. Tang San was anxious. He lied, saying he had left his Dragon Beard behind in the previous spot, and asked Ou Si Ke to go back with him to look for it. Tang San was ready to go rescue Xiao Wu.
He told Ou Si Ke to go back and regroup with Lan De and the others, while he himself would go into the forest to search for Xiao Wu. When Lan De learned that Tang San was going to find the Titan Giant Ape to take revenge, he couldn't help but worry for him and sent everyone to split up and chase after him. Along the way, Tang San encountered a Human Faced Demon Spider and vowed to kill it to make it his third Soul Ring.
Episode 16 Recap
Ningrongrong knew from her father since she was a child that Support-type Soul Masters themselves were not strong in combat power; only by finding partners they could entrust their lives to could they maximize their abilities. As she walked this path, Ningrongrong found that Ou Si Ke and the others were people worth entrusting her life to. Hu Liena was quite disdainful of this. Tang San wanted to absorb the Human Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring.
Yu Xiaogang arrived in time to stop him, explaining that this Human Faced Demon Spider was already 2000 years old, and Tang San could not absorb its Soul Ring, or he would surely die. But Tang San was eager to save someone and couldn't care less. Just as he was about to absorb the Human Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring, the couple Chao Tianxiang and Meng Shu brought Du Gu Yan to stop him again.
Tang San recognized the cherry blossom mark on Du Gu Yan's head at a glance, recalling the task Ye Zhiqiu had given him. Dragon Duke Meng Shu wanted the Human Faced Demon Spider's corpse to extract the poison from it for his granddaughter, Du Gu Yan. If Tang San gave him the Human Faced Demon Spider, he promised to kill a Soul Beast for Tang San to enhance his Soul Ring.
Tang San considered for a long time, then asked him to help rescue Xiao Wu. If he did, Tang San would agree to give them the Human Faced Demon Spider's corpse. Meng Shu knew the power of the King of the Forest, the Titan Giant Ape, deeply, and concluded that Xiao Wu had a slim chance of survival, stating he was powerless to help.
Tang San disregarded Yu Xiaogang's dissuasion and risked his life to absorb the Human Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring, resulting in him being shocked unconscious on the spot by the powerful impact. Du Gu Yan quickly went to help him up. Chao Tianxiang clearly saw a greenish-yellow gas floating out from Tang San's body and entering Du Gu Yan's sleeve.
She was so scared and flustered, repeatedly confirming that Du Gu Yan felt nothing unusual, but still she was not at ease and wanted to wait until Tang San woke up to ask for clarification. Tang San was entangled by the Human Faced Demon Spider's silk and finally trapped in an airtight cocoon. Yu Xiaogang was extremely anxious, waiting for the result after Tang San broke out of the cocoon.
Chao Tianxiang believed Tang San was surely dead because no one could come out alive from a Demon Spider's cocoon shell. Suddenly, the cocoon was kicked open, and Tang San emerged alive, but he had four spider legs on his back; this was the Human Faced Demon Spider's Soul Bone. Lan De rushed over upon hearing the news and discovered Tang San was suffering a backlash.
If the Soul Bone was not removed in time, Tang San would become a bloodthirsty person. However, if the Soul Bone was removed, Tang San would never be able to advance in his life and would only remain at the three Soul Ring level. Yu Xiaogang decisively decided to remove the Soul Bone. Unexpectedly, Tang San suddenly regained consciousness, continuously shouting Xiao Wu's name.
It turned out that the Titan Giant Ape and Xiao Wu were of the same race, and he had come to protect Xiao Wu. After Xiao Wu replenished her energy from him, she asked the Titan Giant Ape to leave quickly to avoid being seen by others. However, the Titan Giant Ape was worried and had been quietly protecting her from behind. Xiao Wu saw Tang San suffering a backlash from afar and was very anxious.
Tang San kept shouting her name, and the Titan Giant Ape mistakenly thought Tang San was harming Xiao Wu, so it prepared to fight Tang San. Xiao Wu desperately stopped him. Yu Xiaogang and Lan De arrived shortly after and wanted to remove the Soul Bone from Tang San's body, but Xiao Wu, knowing that Tang San might never be able to advance after removing the spider legs, firmly disagreed with them doing so.
Du Gu Yan was Zhu Zhuqing's older sister. She had come this time specifically to bring Zhu Zhuqing home. When she saw Zhu Zhuqing with Dai Mubai, she started attacking Dai Mubai fiercely. Zhu Zhuqing quickly stopped them. Dai Mubai was knocked unconscious. Du Gu Yan wanted to take Zhu Zhuqing home and also placed a tracking bug on her body. Dai Mubai suddenly woke up and shielded Zhu Zhuqing. Ningrongrong saw this scene from behind a big tree.
Xiao Wu wanted to transfer Tang San's three Soul Rings onto herself first, and then remove the Soul Bone, so that it would not affect Tang San's advancement. The Titan Giant Ape disagreed with Xiao Wu taking the risk, but her mind was made up. She exerted all her strength to absorb the Soul Rings from Tang San, resulting in her chest being pierced by the spider legs. She still refused to give up.
Tang San finally regained consciousness, but Xiao Wu fainted on the ground due to exhaustion. The Titan Giant Ape was heartbroken, guarding Xiao Wu's side and howling. Ma Hongjun and Ou Si Ke rushed over upon hearing the news, mistakenly thinking the Titan Giant Ape wanted to kill Xiao Wu. Ou Si Ke took out sausages and kiwi to lure the Titan Giant Ape, but he was completely unmoved.
Xiao Wu, worried about her identity being revealed, quietly sent the Titan Giant Ape away. Chao Tianxiang, Du Gu Yan, and Meng Shu arrived shortly after and saw that Tang San's spider legs had deeply penetrated his bone, making it impossible to remove them. Meng Shu wanted to kill Tang San to eliminate future troubles. Ningrongrong rushed over to stop him and even invoked her father's status as a Sect Master. Meng Shu had no choice but to back down.
Tang San finally woke up. Seeing Xiao Wu injured and unconscious, he quickly took her back to the dormitory. Meng Shu, Chao Tianxiang, and Du Gu Yan came to find Tang San, discovering that he was safe and sound and had successfully advanced to the three Soul Ring level. Chao Tianxiang repeatedly pressed Tang San about the greenish-yellow dense smoke on his body, but he was ignorant.
After the grandfather, grandmother, and granddaughter left, Tang San suddenly remembered that the greenish-yellow dense smoke was the poison given to him by Ye Zhiqiu. He quickly went to chase after the Chao Tianxiang trio, but they were already gone. Tang San suspected that the bottle of medicine from Ye Zhiqiu was not poison, otherwise he would have been dead long ago.
However, Yu Xiaogang believed it was indeed poison, but because Tang San had absorbed the Human Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring, and the Human Faced Demon Spider also had potent venom, perhaps that was why he wasn't poisoned. Dai Mubai accused Hu Liena of leaving the Xing Dou Forest without regard for everyone's safety. Hu Liena claimed she left for her own safety.
Knowing she could no longer join their team, she cornered Dai Mubai and used her Mental Ability, forcing him to talk about his family matters. Zhu Zhuqing restrained Hu Liena from behind, and only then did Dai Mubai regain consciousness. Hu Liena repeatedly claimed she wanted to understand Dai Mubai. Dai Mubai warned her that he would kill her if there was a next time.
Episode 17 Recap
Ye Zhiqiu found that Tang San had successfully placed the bottle of poison on Du Gu Yan, but unexpectedly Tang San was not poisoned to death. The reason Bu Le asked Tang San to find Ye Zhiqiu was to ensure he never returned. Ye Zhiqiu felt Tang San had great potential and invited him to join their organization. Tang San was not interested. Ye Zhiqiu clarified that their leader was Tang Hao, a Titled Douluo with nine Soul Rings.
Tang San heard Ye Zhiqiu mention that his father was a Douluo and repeatedly confirmed that Tang Hao's Martial Soul was the Hao Tian Hammer. Tang San never expected that the mastermind behind creating mutated Martial Souls and controlling Yehuo Village was his own father. He was eager to find his father and ask for clarification.
Ye Zhiqiu told him to participate in the fighting arena competition in Xisi City and challenge the Fierce God Team to win; only then would he be qualified to find Ye Zhiqiu at Canghui School in Tiandou City. Tang San wanted to participate in the competition, but Ye Zhiqiu reminded him that his power was insufficient. Tang San recalled what his father said before leaving: as long as he became powerful enough, his father would appear before him.
While Tang San was pondering, he discovered that Ye Zhiqiu had disappeared. He hurried back and fed Xiao Wu the antidote given by Ye Zhiqiu. The poison in Xiao Wu was successfully removed, but she remained unconscious. Yu Xiaogang guessed that because the Soul Rings in Tang San's body: Mandragora Snake, Haunted Vine, and Human Faced Demon Spider, all had potent toxins, and these toxins had fused within his body, Tang San should be immune to all poisons.
Yu Xiaogang told him to use the Blue Silver Plant to directly touch Xiao Wu's wound, which would thoroughly remove the toxins from Xiao Wu's body. Tang San disregarded the difference between genders and aimed the Blue Silver Plant at Xiao Wu's chest wound, successfully absorbing the residual toxins from her body. Tang San went to ask Yu Xiaogang about his father's situation.
Yu Xiaogang still couldn't say much, only admitting that his father was Hao Tian Douluo, and that those things were definitely not done by him; there must be a hidden reason. Tang San wanted to find out the truth, otherwise, he couldn't face Ma Hongjun. Yu Xiaogang patiently tried to persuade him, but Tang San was still unable to let it go. Xiao Wu's body recovered completely. Lan De and Yu Xiaogang led the students back.
Tang San proactively apologized to Ma Hongjun, admitting that his father was the mastermind behind the Yehuo Village incident. Ma Hongjun trusted his character and, furthermore, they didn't know if what Ye Zhiqiu said was true or false. Instead, he advised Tang San not to take it to heart. Tang San was deeply moved and vowed to do everything he could to stop his father from creating mutated Martial Souls.
Lan De and Yu Xiaogang successfully brought the students back to the school. Lan De advised Yu Xiaogang not to reveal the news of Su Yuntao's death and worried that he might leave the school. Yu Xiaogang only cared about his students and promised to continue staying at Shi Lan Ke School.
That night, Dai Mubai boiled a pot of scalding hot water, hoping to force the bug out of Zhu Zhuqing's body and kill it, so that Zhu Zhuqing would be free. Zhu Zhuqing sat in the bathhouse, and the small bug, unable to withstand the heat, crawled out of her hair. Just as Dai Mubai was about to grab it, the bug quickly entered his body.
Dai Mubai had no choice but to sit in the scalding hot water to force the bug out. Zhu Zhuqing stepped on the bug and killed it. Ma Hongjun came to find Tang San to go to the fighting arena together to settle the score with Bu Le. Tang San bound Bu Le with the Blue Silver Plant. Bu Le tried to argue in every way, claiming repeatedly that everything was done by the headquarters.
Ma Hongjun summoned his Martial Soul and burned Bu Le, making him scream in agony. Ma Hongjun didn't want to kill recklessly and stopped in time, allowing Bu Le to escape by chance. Tang San saw that Ma Hongjun was suppressing his grief and anger and spared Bu Le's life, which made him see Ma Hongjun in a new light. Bu Le went alone to a tavern to drown his sorrows with alcohol.
Ye Zhiqiu suddenly came to confront him, complaining that he had exposed their identity, making it known to everyone now. Ye Zhiqiu killed Bu Le on the spot to silence him. Yu Xiaogang held enhanced training classes for the students. Dai Mubai, contrary to his usual behavior, came to class. Yu Xiaogang assigned the first training task, which was to eat a large bowl of meat.
Xiao Wu didn't eat meat, and Ningrongrong, who was dieting, didn't want to eat and even wanted to complain to Lan De. Zhu Zhuqing clearly stated that the soup contained a Star Luo Royal Secret Recipe, which was very helpful for enhancing Martial Soul and power. Yu Xiaogang announced that they would eat this every morning from now on.
Xiao Wu took a bite of the meat and immediately started throwing up non-stop, but she forced herself to finish it in order to become stronger. Yu Xiaogang took the students to the forest for training. Tang San prepared carrots for her, and Xiao Wu was ecstatic. Ou Si Ke hurried over upon hearing the news to join in the fun and also wanted to eat carrots.
Xiao Wu loved carrots so much that she couldn't help but reveal her three Soul Rings. Tang San was stunned speechless. Xiao Wu only had one Soul Ring; it was impossible for her to gain three Soul Rings overnight. Xiao Wu desperately tried to find excuses to cover it up.
Episode 18 Recap
Yu Xiaogang prepared a basket of equipment for each student. Besides wilderness survival essentials, there were also stones of different weights. He tasked them with reaching the destination within a set time. If even one person failed to complete it, all students would be punished, and they were not allowed to use Soul Skills, relying solely on physical endurance and stamina. Ningrongrong carried the lightest equipment, but she was exhausted after walking for only a short while.
Ou Si Ke proactively came to help her. Tang San noticed that Ningrongrong and Ou Si Ke were walking at the back, so he discussed with Dai Mubai, wanting to take the stones from Ningrongrong's basket to lighten her load. Dai Mubai was unusually gentle, and Tang San felt that Dai Mubai had changed, not only willing to attend Yu Xiaogang's classes but also listening attentively to him and being much gentler towards Tang San.
Dai Mubai admitted that Tang San's performance in the Star Dou Great Forest was chivalrous and courageous, and he developed admiration for him. Dai Mubai led the students to climb to the first goal. Everyone sat down to rest briefly and took out the water from their baskets, only to find that Yu Xiaogang had prepared saltwater for them. Dai Mubai and the other six continued on their journey.
He proactively took Ma Hongjun's stones, while Tang San took the stones from the other companions. The two of them forged ahead with heavy loads. The students helped each other, supporting one another along the way to complete this training. Yu Xiaogang and Lan De felt greatly comforted. That evening, Tang San once again dreamed of arriving at the Blue Silver Plant forest and heard that familiar gentle voice calling his name. Tang San searched everywhere, but no one responded.
He was startled awake by the dream and saw Ma Hongjun sitting on the bed, looking dejected. Ma Hongjun missed his father. Tang San gently tried to comfort him. Ou Si Ke was woken up and learned that Dai Mubai had gone to practice, wanting to verify if the White Tiger Vajra Transformation could last longer. Dai Mubai came to the forest to practice, but unexpectedly, Hu Liena stopped him.
Hu Liena displayed her ability of Soul Absorption and Charm, forcing Dai Mubai to reveal all his secrets. Dai Mubai was controlled. Dai Weis arrived in time to stop Hu Liena and rescue his younger brother Dai Mubai. The two of them engaged in a big fight. Hu Liena manipulated Dai Mubai's White Tiger Vajra Transformation Soul Skill to attack Dai Weis.
Dai Weis showed no mercy and struck Dai Mubai, knocking him down on the spot, which brought Dai Mubai back to his senses. Dai Weis also mocked Dai Mubai. Dai Weis vowed to kill Hu Liena and then took Dai Mubai away. Ningrongrong was curious about the relationship between Xiao Wu and Tang San. Xiao Wu repeatedly explained that Tang San was her older brother.
Ningrongrong felt that they must like each other, which was why they addressed each other as siblings first, but Xiao Wu was naive about relationships between men and women. Zhu Zhuqing woke up and, worried about Dai Mubai, couldn't wait to go find him. Hu Liena persuaded Dai Mubai to join hands with her against Dai Weis, even threatening him by stating she was a direct disciple of the Martial Soul Hall's Grandmaster.
Dai Weis didn't care at all and struck her fiercely. Fortunately, Tang San arrived in time and firmly bound Dai Weis with the Blue Silver Plant. Dai Mubai used the White Tiger Violent Light Wave against Dai Weis. Lan De and Yu Xiaogang saw the light wave from the air and quickly came to help. Lan De controlled Dai Weis. Dai Weis insisted on taking Dai Mubai away. Dai Mubai dared not disobey his order.
Tang San and Lan De both urged him not to leave and promised to support him. Dai Weis gave Lan De seven days to bring the students to the fighting arena for a competition. If they lost, Shi Lan Ke School must disband. Lan De ignored Dai Mubai's plea and agreed to Dai Weis's condition. Lan De heard that Hu Liena had used mental power to control Dai Mubai and repeatedly pressed her for the reason.
Hu Liena had no choice but to admit that she liked Dai Mubai. She proactively offered to help everyone fight against Dai Weis. Yu Xiaogang disagreed and did not believe she would sincerely help them. Yu Xiaogang told Hu Liena about Su Yuntao's death. Hu Liena was instantly stunned and desperately demanded to know who the murderer was. Yu Xiaogang did not know the person either and suspected it was someone Su Yuntao knew well.
Lan De instantly saw Yu Xiaogang's intention, which was to use Hu Liena to draw out the Martial Soul Hall's Grandmaster, Bi Bi Dong. Bi Bi Dong learned that Su Yuntao had been killed and sent people to thoroughly investigate the truth. There were still five days left until the competition day. Yu Xiaogang knew that simple training could not significantly improve the students' Soul Skills. He decided to formulate different training programs tailored to each student's characteristics.
He and Lan De would train the students separately, making them clearly see their own shortcomings and weaknesses, and then come to ask for guidance on their own, thus achieving targeted training. Lan De thanked him for his painstaking efforts. After Yu Xiaogang and Lan De's patient guidance, the students quickly discovered the deficiencies in their Soul Skills.
Episode 19 Recap
玉小刚 guided Ningrongrong and Ou Si Ke on their auxiliary Soul Skills, telling them that auxiliary Soul Masters could also fight. He first went through Ou Si Ke's treasure chest, which contained various magic props. Yu Xiaogang wanted these props to play a role in the competition. Ou Si Ke was half-believing, so Yu Xiaogang decided to test them personally. Lan De called Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing together for training. Their characteristic was speed.
Even with her instant movement Soul Skill, Xiao Wu couldn't match Lan De's speed. She was unconvinced, thinking that the head of the school couldn't be faster than her instant movement, there must be a problem. She used instant movement to attack Lan De again. Zhu Zhuqing quickly found the problem; it turned out that from the start to the end of her activation, Xiao Wu generated wind around her.
Lan De successfully avoided her attack by predicting her landing spot. Xiao Wu successfully discovered the issue and began targeted training. Xiao Wu safely avoided the wind chimes, and Zhu Zhuqing covered her. Xiao Wu, without anyone noticing, ran around behind Lan De, who praised her highly. Yu Xiaogang arranged for Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Tang San to jointly strike a large stone. They practiced for a long time, but the large stone remained motionless.
Dai Mubai wanted to give up. Tang San quickly found the problem: their three Martial Souls were powerful when used individually, but when put together, they weakened each other. Tang San found Ou Si Ke to be the target and finally determined the best attack sequence. After the unremitting efforts of Lan De and Yu Xiaogang, the students' Martial Soul power was maximized.
Lan De and Yu Xiaogang discussed further strengthening each student's advantages to achieve significant progress in a short time. To help the school reduce its financial burden, Tang San insisted on working at the blacksmith shop every night to earn money. When Tang San saw the wind chimes hanging in the blacksmith shop, he couldn't help but think of his father Tang Hao. Every blacksmith shop had signature wind chimes.
Tang Hao had specially made wind chimes for Tang San and even held him to ring the string of wind chimes. Tang San was emotionally moved by the scene, his heart filled with mixed feelings, which Xiao Wu saw entirely. Tang San started training before dawn every day, wanting to break the large stone with the Blue Silver Plant, but each failure decreased his confidence.
Yu Xiaogang encouraged Tang San and talked about his own experience years ago when his Martial Soul 'Tang San Cannon' failed during training and mutated, making it difficult for his Soul Power to advance further. He later went to the Martial Soul Hall to study Martial Soul theory, but had to leave due to some incidents.
It wasn't until he met Tang San that he was inspired to start researching Martial Soul theory again, thinking that perhaps fate would bring him new surprises this way. Tang San only wanted to do his best to make his father proud. Yu Xiaogang encouraged him and cheered him on. Ou Si Ke collected material for plays everywhere. He hid behind the large stone, eavesdropping on Yu Xiaogang and Tang San's conversation, and recorded it.
Finally, he accidentally made a noise. He was embarrassed to come out from behind the stone, but Yu Xiaogang forcibly pulled him out to practice Soul Skills. Xiao Wu and Ma Hongjun collected a lot of herbs for treating bruises and burns and exchanged them at the blacksmith shop for that string of wind chimes. Xiao Wu gave it to Tang San as a gift, hoping he wouldn't be homesick anymore.
Tang San was very happy to receive the wind chimes, but Yu Xiaogang noticed Tang San's weakness of being too emotional. Although being emotional can sometimes be a strength, Tang San's repeated loss of rationality out of concern for Xiao Wu's safety was too dangerous. Yu Xiaogang reminded Tang San to remain rational at all times and not act impulsively, because only by handling problems calmly could he and his loved ones be safer.
Based on the students' training, Yu Xiaogang and Lan De analyzed that if they were ultimately to defeat Dai Weis, the key would be the control-type Soul Master Tang San. As long as they trained Tang San's control ability well, the frontal attack would be left to Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu would be responsible for sneak attacks,加上 along with the assistance of Ou Si Ke and Ningrongrong.
Their weaknesses could compensate for each other, and their strengths could be amplified, making their cooperation even more perfect. With only two days left until the competition, Lan De and Yu Xiaogang arranged a match to test the students' training results, having Ningrongrong and Ou Si Ke fight against Ma Hongjun. All the students came to watch, only Hu Liena was absent. The head of the Martial Soul Hall sent another deacon to replace Su Yuntao to protect Hu Liena.
Hu Liena told him to kill Dai Weis, and then sent the deacon to see Dai Weis. Ningrongrong and Ou Si Ke teamed up to defeat Ma Hongjun. Ma Hongjun was sincerely convinced of his loss. Lan De also praised Yu Xiaogang's training methods. Yu Xiaogang made careful arrangements, making Dai Mubai the captain and Tang San responsible for on-field command. Dai Mubai was not convinced and volunteered to be the overall commander.
Yu Xiaogang agreed to his request in front of everyone, but privately instructed Tang San to be prepared to take over the command work; if Dai Mubai failed, he must step up. Tang San immediately felt immense pressure.
Episode 20 Recap
In the blink of an eye, the day of the competition arrived. Dai Mubai brought the students to the Soul Fighting Arena. From afar, he saw that Dai Weis was injured. Dai Mubai showed concern for him, but Dai Weis didn't want to chatter too much and told him they would meet on the stage later. In fact, Dai Weis was heavily injured, but he still insisted on competing.
Dai Mubai decided to use successive attacks against Dai Weis, just without arranging for Ou Si Ke and Ningrongrong to participate. Dai Weis changed into his battle robe and entered the stage. Tang San had Ou Si Ke summon his Martial Soul, the Big Sausage, and gave it to Dai Weis to restore Soul Power, but he didn't appreciate it at all. The battle began.
Dai Mubai called on Tang San, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ma Hongjun, and the five of them surrounded Dai Weis. They took turns attacking, summoning their respective Martial Souls. Dai Weis was powerful and quickly defeated them one by one. The five of them launched a new round of attacks. Zhu Zhuqing was injured while protecting Dai Mubai. They were defeated again.
Tang San didn't want to sit and wait for death, so he went offstage to find Ou Si Ke for help. Tang San called Ningrongrong and Ou Si Ke onto the stage to face the challenge. Dai Weis looked down on auxiliary Soul Masters. The two of them each used magic props to attack Dai Weis. Dai Weis's wrist was locked, and Ma Hongjun took the opportunity to sneak attack Dai Weis.
Tang San summoned Blue Silver Plant and tied it around Xiao Wu's waist. Xiao Wu flew up and kicked Dai Weis out of the arena. According to the competition rules, a participant kicked off the stage loses. Dai Weis had to agree to Dai Mubai staying at Shi Lan Ke school and agreed to meet him at the Douluo Continent Martial Soul Competition. After this competition, Dai Mubai began to reflect on his mistakes.
He had always thought that Soul Masters should rely on absolute power to win. He didn't expect that Tang San could easily defeat his older brother Dai Weis, who had extremely strong Martial Soul power, just by using auxiliary Soul Masters. Yu Xiaogang advised him to let go of his ingrained rules and accept techniques and auxiliary power. Dai Mubai was greatly inspired. He had been disdainful when Tang San used other moves to defeat Zhao Wuji.
After Ou Si Ke and Ningrongrong defeated Ma Hongjun, he still thought it was just luck. It wasn't until the end of today's competition that he finally understood the importance of teamwork. Yu Xiaogang announced on the spot that Dai Mubai was the captain and Tang San was the soul of the team, hoping they would work together wholeheartedly. The two of them tightly held each other's hands.
Ou Si Ke thought of today's competition and was so moved that his eyes filled with tears. It was the first time he felt useful. Ningrongrong offered him words of comfort. Xiao Wu's foot was injured, so Tang San carried her back to the school. The two of them were happily talking and laughing. Lan De and Yu Xiaogang walked behind the students.
Lan De noticed someone was following them, so he and Yu Xiaogang attacked from front and back, blocking the two people. Unexpectedly, the people who came were Yu Xiaogang's nephew Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan. Tang San specially bought medicinal balm for bruises and applied it to Xiao Wu's foot. Xiao Wu playfully asked him to braid her hair, and Tang San seriously did as she asked. Xiao Wu was blooming with joy inside.
Zhu Zhuqing and Ningrongrong returned to the dormitory, and only then did Tang San find an excuse to leave. The two of them were certain that Tang San and Xiao Wu had feelings for each other that went beyond that of siblings, but Xiao Wu was completely unaware. Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan explained their purpose to Yu Xiaogang and Lan De.
They watched the match last night and suspected that someone had injured Dai Weis beforehand, otherwise, they couldn't have won. Yu Tianheng explained their purpose was to invite Dai Mubai and Tang San to join the Heaven Dou City Royal school team and participate in the Douluo Continent Martial Soul Competition. Dai Mubai firmly refused to leave Shi Lan Ke. Tang San dared not go because of Xiao Chenyu's death. Lan De encouraged Dai Mubai to participate.
Yu Tianheng promised to help Tang San resolve the trouble in Nuoding City. Tang San still wanted to stay at Shi Lan Ke; here he had his beloved teacher and close classmates. Yu Tianheng no longer insisted. He promised that the Royal school team would help Dai Mubai defeat Dai Weis, and Dai Mubai was tempted. Ningrongrong complained to Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing about the various restrictions and rules of her family.
She came to Shi Lan Ke to seek freedom. Zhu Zhuqing and Ningrongrong couldn't help but tease Xiao Wu, concluding that she was the most formidable among the Shi Lan Ke Seven Monsters, and that as long as someone provoked Xiao Wu, Tang San would avenge her at all costs. Zhu Zhuqing also joked about Xiao Wu and Tang San. Finally, the three of them went to eat turnip cake. Dai Mubai was conflicted.
He was reluctant to leave Shi Lan Ke, but he also wanted to join the Royal school team to establish a foothold in his family. He also told Tang San his true identity was the prince of the Star Luo Kingdom, and his brother Dai Weis was the first in line to the throne of the Star Luo Kingdom. Since childhood, he had lived under his brother's shadow.
He wanted to become strong, not to compete for the throne, but just to be recognized. And Zhu Zhuqing's breaking off their engagement might also have been because she looked down on him. But Tang San thought Zhu Zhuqing had feelings for him, otherwise, she wouldn't have risked her life to protect him.
Tang San also said that no matter what decision Dai Mubai made, everyone would support him, because he was always the captain of the Shi Lan Ke Seven Monsters. Lan De looked through the Shi Lan Ke school's archives. Yu Xiaogang found that the students from back then had all become famous Soul Masters.
Lan De was deeply emotional, saying that Shi Lan Ke never relied on any power, so it could only rely on strength to cultivate a large number of highly skilled students.
Episode 21 Recap
Tang San asked Dugu Yan if she knew Ye Zhiqiu from Cang Hui school. Dugu Yan did not know him, and even disdained such an unknown school as Cang Hui. Yu Tianheng suspected that Cang Hui school sent Ye Zhiqiu to recruit talented individuals, but Dugu Yan thought it was impossible. The more Dai Mubai thought about it, the more something felt wrong.
Yu Tianheng had promised to help him defeat Dai Weis, which was a struggle for the throne of the Star Luo Kingdom. A small school simply did not have this capability. Dai Mubai brought Tang San to confront Yu Tianheng. Yu Tianheng had to admit that Xue Qinghe, the crown prince of the Heaven Dou Kingdom, wanted to help Dai Mubai and arranged for them to meet and discuss in detail. Dugu Yan suddenly fainted on the ground.
Tang San discovered that Dugu Yan was poisoned. Only then did he remember the bottle of yellowish-green potion that Ye Zhiqiu had given him, suspecting that the poison had taken effect, but he did not say it explicitly. Dugu Yan took the Lianqiao Fruit given by Ou Si Ke, which could cure a hundred poisons, but showed no signs of improvement. Yu Tianheng dared not delay and wanted to take Dugu Yan back to Heaven Dou City to detoxify her.
He told Dai Mubai and Tang San to go to Xisi City to meet Xue Qinghe within thirty days. Tang San remembered that Ye Zhiqiu had once asked him to go to Xisi City to accept the challenge from the Fiend Squad. Since Xisi City had no city lord and was a necessary route to Heaven Dou City, meeting there would be very hidden.
Lan De and Yu Xiaogang called the students together for a meeting and publicly announced their agreement for Dai Mubai and Tang San to join the Heaven Dou City Royal school team. He also wanted to bring the other students to participate in this grand event, telling everyone to prepare themselves and depart early tomorrow morning. Neither Dai Mubai nor Tang San wanted to leave Shi Lan Ke.
Lan De clearly stated that the purpose of Shi Lan Ke school was to cultivate good Soul Masters and advised them to broaden their horizons. Hu Liena wanted to travel with Lan De and the others, and Lan De did not refuse. Tang San wanted to challenge the Fiend Squad when passing through Xisi City, but he did not want Xiao Wu to worry, so he asked Yu Xiaogang to keep it a secret from Xiao Wu.
Early in the morning, Lan De and Yu Xiaogang led the students on their journey. Hu Liena followed far behind. They travelled through mountains and rivers, eating and sleeping outdoors. Ou Si Ke beat a rhythm with his feet, and the others took out their personal items to join in. Everyone danced to the rhythm, relieving the fatigue of the journey. Along the way, everyone helped each other, and they soon arrived at a vast, endless desert.
In the distance, they saw several large pillars in the wilderness, with people tied to them who had been sun-dried to death. Tang San suggested burying the bodies of these people. A copper Soul Fighting badge fell out of the clothes of one of them, indicating that the person was a senior Soul Master. Lan De reminded everyone to be extra careful.
Ou Si Ke wanted to go and unlock the chains of another person, but unexpectedly, he was still alive. Just as Tang San was about to feed him a Big Sausage, that person suddenly died, and three Soul Rings immediately appeared on his body. Lan De and Yu Xiaogang led the students through twists and turns to the bustling Xisi City. The streets were filled with people coming and going, and merchants gathered, making it very lively.
The students were dazzled. Tang San was solely focused on going to the Soul Fighting Arena here; he was not interested in the people or things around him. Xiao Wu suddenly saw someone selling adorable Sand Strider Beasts by the roadside. These were very gentle Soul Beasts in the desert. Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ningrongrong all liked them very much. Ou Si Ke suggested buying a Sand Strider Beast for each girl.
Yu Xiaogang then told them the story of the Sand Strider Beasts. Sand Strider Beasts could control sandstorms and had powerful control abilities in the desert. Merchants utilized this point to coexist peacefully with the Sand Strider Beasts. Xiao Wu hoped that all Soul Beasts could coexist with humans, but the Sand Strider Beast was just an exception, and Xiao Wu was disappointed. Lan De informed the students that they would depart for Heaven Dou City early the next morning.
Because there was an issue in Heaven Dou City, Xue Qinghe could not come to Xisi City, so he sent his palace steward, Ma Xiuno, to Xisi City to apologize to Dai Mubai and Tang San and arrange to meet them in Heaven Dou City. Dai Mubai flatly refused, forbidding Xue Qinghe from interfering in the affairs of the Star Luo Kingdom. Hu Liena was eavesdropping outside the door and was caught by Xiao Wu on the spot.
Tang San came out when he heard the news. Dai Mubai told Tang San not to mind Xue Qinghe's invitation. Afterward, Xiao Wu and Tang San went to stroll through the night market. Xiao Wu and Tang San heard a woman's tragic cry at the street corner and hurried over to see what was happening. From the neighbors, they learned that her husband had been beaten to death while competing against the Fiend Squad in the Soul Fighting Arena.
Nine out of ten Soul Masters who competed against the Fiend Squad died; even if they didn't die, they would be tied up outside the city and dried into human jerky. Afterward, the woman saw someone carrying a large saber walking towards them and was so frightened that she fled in panic. Tang San carefully looked at the person who came and recognized him as Wang Sheng.
Hu Liena burst into Ma Xiuno's room and desperately questioned him about Xue Qinghe's whereabouts and the purpose of Xue Qinghe seeking Dai Mubai. Ma Xiuno claimed ignorance to every question. Wang Sheng accompanied Tang San and Xiao Wu while they strolled through the streets and admitted that he had killed Xiao Chenyu and then fled all the way to Xisi City.
Wang Sheng learned that Xiao Wu liked sweets very much, so he grabbed a handful from a roadside vendor. The vendor dared not speak out in anger. Xiao Wu firmly refused to eat the snatched candy. Tang San noticed that the vendor was very afraid of Wang Sheng. Wang Sheng claimed that he did not pay for things when buying here and boasted that this was the power of the strong.
Wang Sheng had long heard that Ye Zhiqiu had asked Tang San to come to Xisi City. He was also a member of the Fiend Squad, and his Martial Soul had already mutated into a Blood Tiger.
Episode 22 Recap
Tang San heard that the Fiend Squad had killed many people in the arena. Wang Sheng claimed it was to establish prestige for their squad in Xisi City, thereby becoming famous. He knew Ye Zhiqiu had sent Tang San to challenge him and promised to show him leniency. Tang San shook his head and said nothing.
When he learned that Wang Sheng had been ordered by captain Meng Li to throw the wife of the dead Soul Master outside the city, he was even more furious. He condemned him for transferring his hatred for Xiao Chenyu onto others. The two started arguing violently. Wang Sheng worried that Tang San would give up the challenge because of this, and Meng Li would personally come to catch him and also take action against his companions.
Tang San had waited for this challenge for a long time; he would not give up. Early the next morning, Lan De was going to take the students to Heaven Dou City. Tang San used the excuse that he still had things to do in Xisi City and asked for leave from Lan De.
Xiao Wu wanted to be with him, and Yu Xiaogang also did not want Tang San to take risks, so he decided to stay and challenge with him. Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, and Xiao Wu sent everyone to the city gate. Xiao Wu bid farewell to her companions with tears, vowing to challenge the Fiend Squad with Tang San and strive to let him see his father earlier.
As Lan De and his group were about to exit the city gate, they encountered a sandstorm. Yellow sand instantly filled the entire sky. People were blown around. Lan De and the others were quickly scattered by the sandstorm. Dai Mubai searched everywhere for Zhu Zhuqing, accidentally meeting Ningrongrong on the way, and took her back to the inn. Dai Mubai then returned to look for Zhu Zhuqing.
Ou Si Ke was blown into a small alley and saw Ma Hongjun curled up in a corner of the street. He quickly went over to meet up with him. The two couldn't stand steadily and could only find things in the alley to use as cover. A Sand Strider Beast came near them. Ma Hongjun immediately lost control, covered in fire, and charged straight at the Sand Strider Beast.
Ou Si Ke summoned his Martial Soul and forcefully woke Ma Hongjun up. Only then did Ma Hongjun realize he had lost control. Dai Mubai searched everywhere for Zhu Zhuqing. Zhu Zhuqing had no choice but to come out from her hidden corner. A sandstorm blew in. To protect Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing was injured by a blown-off object. Dai Mubai took her back to the inn and repeatedly apologized to her.
Ningrongrong was very surprised, not expecting the usually arrogant Dai Mubai to also apologize proactively. Tang San and Xiao Wu supported each other, wanting to return to the inn, when they suddenly saw Hu Liena being blown up by a whirlwind. Tang San summoned his Blue Silver Plant, wanting to rescue her, but couldn't get close because the whirlwind was too strong. Hu Liena was blown around by the whirlwind and could only circle in the air.
Tang San worried that she would hit a wall and get injured, so he tied his Blue Silver Plant to Xiao Wu's wrist. He rushed into the whirlwind without regard for his own safety and held tightly onto Hu Liena. Xiao Wu pulled them with all her might. Tang San used great effort to finally rescue Hu Liena from the whirlwind. Hu Liena thanked Tang San for saving her twice.
Although Tang San hadn't thought much about saving her, Hu Liena's heart rippled for Tang San. Tang San was worried about the safety of his other companions. Afterward, the three of them supported each other back to the inn, wanting to inquire about the whereabouts of the others. Tang San learned that the others had not returned and wanted to go out and save people.
The clerk guarded the door tightly, advising him not to go to his death, because the Sand Strider Beasts were still howling outside. Ma Xiuno came out upon hearing the news and pleaded with Tang San to take him out of the city, saying he had important matters to attend to. Ma Xiuno called Tang San to his room, where there was a cub of a Sand Strider Beast.
Tang San concluded that the Sand Strider Beast outside was looking for its child and wanted to send the cub out. At this moment, Wang Sheng brought Meng Li and members of the Fiend Squad to find Tang San. Ma Xiuno pleaded with Meng Li to take him out of the city. Meng Li learned that he was the steward of the Heaven Dou City royal family and, in a fit of anger, wanted to kill him.
Ma Xiuno was so scared that he repeatedly pleaded for mercy and hastily claimed he could resolve the sandstorm. Meng Li learned that he had secretly captured the cub, which caused the mother beast to go mad and trigger the sandstorm. Meng Li told Ma Xiuno to send the cub back. He was worried about provoking the mother beast. Tang San proactively offered to send the cub back. Xiao Wu went together with him.
Episode 23 Recap
Tang San held the Sand Strider cub, with Xiao Wu protecting him by his side. They went to the area where the sandstorm was densest and finally saw the mother beast. The mother beast was agitated. Tang San put the cub down, and it quickly ran to its mother. Tang San repeatedly explained that he had not harmed the cub. After the mother beast left with the cub, the sandstorm instantly disappeared.
Ou Si Ke and Ma Hongjun came upon hearing the news and met up with Tang San and Xiao Wu. The four of them rushed back to the inn together. Meng Li praised Tang San for doing a good job and told him to kill Ma Xiuno, saying that this would mean Tang San passed the test. Tang San did not want to kill innocent people, but Meng Li was relentless.
Wang Sheng also tried hard to persuade Tang San on the side. Tang San would rather give up the challenge. Meng Li killed Ma Xiuno on the spot and then mocked Tang San with malicious words. Tang San was furious, grinding his teeth. He guessed that the Soul Masters who were exposed to the sun in the desert outside Xisi City were also killed by the Fiend Squad. Meng Li admitted this without hesitation.
Tang San vowed to defeat the Fiend Squad to save this city. Meng Li agreed to meet him in the Douluo arena. Lan De and Yu Xiaogang arrived at the inn with the students and learned that Meng Li, the captain of the Fiend Squad, had killed Ma Xiuno. Tang San took Xiao Wu out for a walk on the street to relax. He worried that the mastermind behind the Fiend Squad was his father.
Xiao Wu firmly believed that Tang Hao was not a bad person. Tang San felt that he didn't understand his father at all and vowed to find Canghui school in Heaven Dou City and persuade his father not to kill innocent people indiscriminately. The residents of Xisi City came one after another to cheer for Tang San, firmly believing that he would definitely win. Tang San was very moved.
Yu Xiaogang told Dai Mubai and the others about Tang San going on stage to challenge the Fiend Squad, explicitly stating that Tang San was going to his death. Dai Mubai, wanting to protect his teammates, said that it was Tang San's own business and had nothing to do with them, which earned scorn from the others. But privately, Dai Mubai quietly called Ma Hongjun aside and discussed helping Tang San with him.
Zhu Zhuqing followed afterwards and also wanted to participate in the fight. Tang San took Xiao Wu to the blacksmith shop to forge iron nails. The shop owner not only prepared enough refined iron for him but also let him make iron nails for free, only asking him to defeat the Fiend Squad. Tang San made a total of six sets of iron nail crossbows.
If he failed the challenge, he asked Xiao Wu to take these crossbows and iron nails to Heaven Dou City and give them to Dai Mubai and the others, hoping these weapons could increase their chances of winning in the competitions in Heaven Dou City. That night, Dai Mubai and the other team members came to find Tang San.
They did not allow Tang San and Xiao Wu to act alone and insisted that the Shi Lan Ke Seven Devils challenge the Fiend Squad together. Ningrongrong also promised to help inquire about Ye Zhiqiu's background. The seven of them were eager to fight and swore together. Tang San was deeply moved. Lan De and Yu Xiaogang overheard this while hiding outside the door and were deeply relieved.
Yu Xiaogang seized the opportunity to suggest that Lan De treat them to a meal. Tang San distributed the crossbows and iron nails to everyone, and Dai Mubai gladly accepted them. Early the next morning, Lan De and Yu Xiaogang waited early in the courtyard, cheering on the students. Hu Liena called Tang San aside individually and advised him not to fight a losing battle, otherwise, he would lose his life.
Tang San did not want the people in the city to be ravaged by the Fiend Squad anymore; he was already prepared. Tang San and the group of seven arrived at the Douluo arena with high spirits. Meng Li boasted that the entire Xisi City belonged to them and advised Tang San to surrender early. Tang San ignored him. Ningrongrong threw out several iron beads. Ma Hongjun unleashed his Phoenix Fire Line, igniting those iron beads.
The members of the Fiend Squad were immediately engulfed in thick smoke. Tang San seized the opportunity to summon his Blue Silver Plant. Xiao Wu cooperated with him, and Zhu Zhuqing and Ou Si Ke attacked together. The Fiend Squad arrayed themselves and fought back. Dai Mubai leaped down to attack Meng Li, and Zhu Zhuqing followed closely to reinforce him.
Episode 24 Recap
Tang San and Xiao Wu cooperated perfectly, using the Soul Skills of the Blue Silver Plant and Human Faced Demon Spider Martial Soul to tightly wrap the members of the Fiend Squad in a net woven from Blue Silver Plant. Ou Si Ke threw over a prop horn filled with oil. Ma Hongjun seized the opportunity to use his Blazing Phoenix, and the raging fire instantly surrounded Meng Li and his teammates.
Seeing that they were about to be burned to death, Meng Li suddenly shouted and broke free from the spider web. The others also used their power to break free from the restraints. It turned out that Meng Li deliberately gave Tang San and the others a little hope, and then immediately began a frantic, dog-like attack. The Shi Lan Ke Seven Devils lined up, each using all their strength and activating their Martial Souls to meet the challenge.
Although everyone fought back desperately, the difference in Martial Soul power between the two sides was vast. Meng Li and the members of the Fiend Squad were all sinister and ruthless, and the Shi Lan Ke Seven Devils gradually couldn't hold their own. Wang Sheng lifted Ningrongrong high up. Ou Si Ke jumped up with all his might to protect her. Meng Li attacked Xiao Wu. Tang San fought Meng Li recklessly.
Dai Mubai was severely injured trying to save Zhu Zhuqing. Ma Hongjun fought alone and was quickly defeated. With an order from Meng Li, he wanted to kill all the Shi Lan Ke Seven Devils. Tang San signaled everyone to use the divine crossbow hidden weapons. The seven people simultaneously fired the iron nails from the divine crossbows. Meng Li and the members of the Fiend Squad were caught off guard and all hit.
Dai Mubai unleashed his White Tiger Violent Light Wave. Tang San added momentum, completely defeating the Fiend Squad in one go. After the battle ended, the Shi Lan Ke Seven Devils had not yet recovered from the thrilling fight they had just experienced. The seven of them huddled together tightly. Lan De, Hu Liena, and Yu Xiaogang were the first to run out and congratulate them. The common people also rushed over together to cheer for them.
The people from the city all came to the inn to give gifts to the Shi Lan Ke Seven Devils. Ou Si Ke was overwhelmed. Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and others went to attend the city's celebration dance. Tang San went to see Dai Mubai and saw Hu Liena guarding his side. Tang San knew that she liked Dai Mubai.
Hu Liena had witnessed the power of Tang San's Martial Soul and only hoped that they wouldn't stand on opposing sides in the future. After Hu Liena left, Dai Mubai quietly called out to Tang San. Only then did Tang San realize that he was pretending to be asleep and didn't want to get entangled with Hu Liena. Tang San went out and saw Ye Zhiqiu. Ye Zhiqiu called him aside and congratulated him on completing the challenge.
Tang San found that Ye Zhiqiu didn't care about the lives of the Fiend Squad at all. Ye Zhiqiu kept claiming that he had merely used the strength of the Fiend Squad. Tang San was so angry that he gritted his teeth, condemning Ye Zhiqiu as too cruel for treating the Fiend Squad as puppets and allowing them to kill innocent people indiscriminately. Ye Zhiqiu, however, shamelessly suggested that Tang San join the Royal Academy team as an undercover agent.
If he could successfully enter the finals, he would be able to meet Tang Hao. If Tang San dared to betray them, his fate would be the same as Bu Le's. Tang San didn't expect that he had killed Bu Le. Ye Zhiqiu kept saying that he was acting under orders from headquarters. Tang San secretly vowed in his heart that he would fight this battle alone and did not want to involve his classmates.
Lan De and Yu Xiaogang set off with the students, hurrying towards Heaven Dou City. Ningrongrong, in the name of the Qibao Amber Pagoda clan, wanted to buy Tang San's technique for making the divine crossbow. Yu Xiaogang explained that the divine crossbow could only deal with Soul Masters below the four Soul Ring level. Ningrongrong didn't care; she thought she would have her father talk to Tang San in Heaven Dou City.
Yu Xiaogang noticed that Tang San had been worried and guessed that Ye Zhiqiu had come to see him. Tang San only wanted to reach the finals so he could see his father. Yu Xiaogang advised him to let go of his psychological burden. Meng Li and the members of the Fiend Squad had lost all their Martial Soul power. They were tied to pillars in the desert, waiting to die. Ye Zhiqiu suddenly arrived.
He asked Wang Sheng about Tang San's situation. Wang Sheng did not provide any valuable information and was killed on the spot by Ye Zhiqiu. Lan De and Yu Xiaogang brought the students on their journey to Heaven Dou City. It was lively and prosperous here, with buildings of various shapes along the streets, looking magnificent. The students were dazzled. Lan De and his group quickly found the Royal school.
Ma Hongjun was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes. He never expected to be able to come to the Royal school, which he had dreamed of his entire life. Ningrongrong, however, was not surprised; she had been here with her father when she was a child. The guards at the school learned that Lan De and his group were introduced by Yu Tianheng and asked Xue Beng to take them inside to register.
Ou Si Ke, Xiao Wu, and others saw the dazzling array of fruits on the table and couldn't help but feast. Xue Beng was displeased and spoke disrespectfully about Shi Lan Ke School. Dai Mubai got into a fierce argument with him. Yu Tianheng rushed over upon hearing the news. Xue Beng couldn't help but complain to him. Yu Tianheng kindly appeased Xue Beng, arranged accommodation for Lan De and his group, and then took them to the Academic Affairs Office to handle the enrollment procedures.
Episode 25 Recap
Yu Tianheng took Xiao Wu and others to rest. Lan De, Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, and Dai Mubai came to the Royal school's Academic Affairs Office to report. Chief Meng Shenji urged Tang San and Dai Mubai to complete the enrollment procedures as soon as possible. Dai Mubai wanted to retain his student status at Shi Lan Ke School. Meng Shenji disagreed. Tang San also did not want to give up his former teachers and classmates.
Meng Shenji immediately canceled their admission qualifications. Xue Qinghe arrived afterward. He first talked with Dai Mubai about their brotherly battle. Immediately after, Xue Qinghe provided a guarantee and arranged to loan students from Shi Lan Ke School to join the Royal team. He said they could return to Shi Lan Ke School after the competition ended. Meng Shenji agreed to handle the loan procedures for Tang San and Dai Mubai tomorrow. He just didn't understand Xue Qinghe's intention.
Xue Qinghe admitted that he valued Dai Mubai's identity. He didn't want Dai Weishi to control the Xingluo Kingdom. That would be a great threat to Heaven Dou City. If Dai Mubai controlled the royal family, he could rest easy. Dai Mubai was so angry that he gritted his teeth. Xue Qinghe invited Tang San and Dai Mubai to visit the Heaven Dou Sunset. Hu Liena also followed closely behind.
Lan De and Yu Xiaogang had to return to their lodging first. Tang San told Xue Qinghe about Ma Xiunuo's death. He didn't care. Tang San pressed him hard about the mastermind behind Canghui School. Xue Qinghe heard it was the Hao Tian Douluo who had been missing for a long time. He knew nothing else. Xue Qinghe asked Hu Liena about the Martial Soul Hall's purpose in holding this Soul Master Tournament.
Hu Liena kept saying it was to promote the Martial Soul spirit and strengthen exchanges between the various schools. Hearing her high-sounding answer, Xue Qinghe didn't ask further. Xue Qinghe was determined to win. Students from any school were acceptable. He just didn't want the Martial Soul Hall's plot to succeed. Dai Mubai wanted to advance to the Four Soul Ring level before the finals. Only then could he compete with Dai Weishi. Tang San agreed to cultivate with him.
Xue Beng came to challenge Dai Mubai at his door. Dai Mubai was not there. Ma Hongjun, Xiao Wu, and Ou Si Ke vied to take up the challenge. Xue Beng was very impatient. He struck first. Xiao Wu beat Xue Beng until he was bruised and swollen in just a few punches and kicks. Xue Beng was of Heaven Dou royal blood. His father was Prince Xue Xing.
Prince Xue Xing called Yu Tianheng to question Lan De and Yu Xiaogang and demand punishment. He insisted on kicking Xiao Wu out of the school. Otherwise, Tang San and Dai Mubai would not be allowed to enroll. Tang San firmly refused. He wanted to be with Xiao Wu. Hu Liena came to find Xue Qinghe. She claimed to be the direct disciple of Bi Bi Dong, the leader of the Martial Soul Hall.
The reason the Martial Soul Hall was holding the Martial Soul Tournament was to cooperate with Heaven Dou City. Xue Qinghe didn't believe her at all. Hu Liena invited him to find a place to talk privately. Xue Qinghe wanted to first resolve the situation for Xiao Wu and the others before talking. Prince Xue Xing was relentless. Xue Qinghe arrived in time to help Xiao Wu out of the predicament.
He also advised Prince Xue Xing to consider the overall situation of Heaven Dou City. Du Gubo rushed over upon hearing the news. Without saying a word, he took Ou Si Ke hostage. Lan De quickly stepped forward to plead for Ou Si Ke. He was tightly bound by Du Gubo's Soul Ring. Du Gubo also bound the other members of Shi Lan Ke School one by one. Tang San summoned his Blue Silver Plant.
Du Gubo clearly stated that he was not there to help Prince Xue Xing but to find Tang San. Xue Qinghe persuaded Du Gubo using his royal status and reputation. He asked him to let Tang San go for now. Du Gubo gave Xue Qinghe face. He decided to catch Tang San at another time. As he left, he also left a harsh warning, telling Tang San to wait and see.
Tang San knew it was because he had accidentally poisoned Dugu Yan. Xue Qinghe sent the people from Shi Lan Ke School away. He told them to participate in the competition under the name of another school. Hu Liena came out to continue talking with Xue Qinghe. Yu Tianheng explained in detail to Lan De and Yu Xiaogang that Dugu Yan was Du Gubo's granddaughter. He just didn't understand how Tang San had provoked Du Gubo.
Immediately afterward, he took Lan De and the others to Lan Ba School. It was overgrown with weeds and in disrepair. Yu Tianheng clearly stated that the school director only accepted students based on talent, and they could enroll even without money. Due to talent loss and financial problems, Lan Ba School was facing a shortage of new talent. Currently, only the school director remained. Yu Tianheng explained his purpose outside the gate. The school director was unmoved.
Lan De reported his name. The school director immediately opened the door. Yu Xiaogang never expected the school director to be Liu Erlong. Afterward, Lan De, Yu Xiaogang, and Liu Erlong reminisced privately. Liu Erlong directly asked Yu Xiaogang if he was married. Yu Xiaogang was scared out of his wits. Seeing this, Lan De quickly found an excuse to slip away. Lan De couldn't resist the students' persistent pestering. He told the story between the three of them in detail. Lan De, Yu Xiaogang, and Liu Erlong were once the renowned Golden Iron Triangle.
Episode 26 Recap
Ningrongrong was not interested in the Golden Iron Triangle, she only wanted to know about the relationship between Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang. Lan De admitted that Liu Erlong liked Yu Xiaogang very much, but Yu Xiaogang fell in love with Martial Soul Hall's supreme leader Bi Bi Dong. From then on, the Golden Iron Triangle also disbanded. Ou Si Ke was curious if Lan De had someone he liked. Lan De quickly changed the subject.
Yu Xiaogang told Liu Erlong in detail about his experiences over the years. Liu Erlong learned that he had not been in contact with Bi Bi Dong. She was willing to rename Lan Ba School to Shi Lan Ke School, so that Yu Xiaogang could take the students to participate in the competition rightfully. Liu Erlong also asked Lan De to be the school director, and she and Yu Xiaogang would both be teachers.
Hu Liena went to negotiate with Xue Qinghe. Xue Qinghe had long ago found out that she was not Hu Liena. He tied her up using his six-Soul Ring tool Martial Soul. Hu Liena had to admit that Hu Liena was already dead. She was Bi Bi Dong's daughter, Qian Renxue. The purpose of this trip was to replace Dai Mubai and subsequently seize the royal power of Xingluo Kingdom.
Hu Liena used the Soul Skill Bi Bi Dong had taught her to effortlessly dispel the tool Martial Soul. Xue Qinghe was instantly stunned. Qian Renxue showed the luminous pearl on her chest. In an instant, she exchanged bodies with Xue Qinghe. Using Xue Qinghe's body, she gave the order not to let anyone enter the room and instructed the guards to place food outside the door every day. Liu Erlong changed the school sign to Shi Lan Ke School.
She also gave the position of school director to Lan De. Immediately after, Liu Erlong took Yu Xiaogang and Lan De to register. Due to Prince Xue Xing's interference, he forced them to repay the 2000 gold soul coins they owed the Martial Soul Hall before allowing them to register. The three of them discussed and decided to perform street art to earn money on the spot. They also took out the play written by Ou Si Ke to perform.
Ningrongrong and Zhu Zhuqing refused to play the princess. Ou Si Ke had no choice but to ask Ma Hongjun to play the frog princess. Ningrongrong, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing, among others, cleaned the school inside and out spotlessly. Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun reluctantly cooperated with Ou Si Ke to perform street art for money. Ou Si Ke was fully invested, and he acted very seriously, receiving high praise from the audience.
Ningrongrong sold Tang San's divine crossbow at a high price to her father. She immediately came to inform Tang San. Tang San thanked her for her strong assistance. Ningrongrong hoped that Tang San and Dai Mubai would successfully reach the finals. Tang San also wanted Shi Lan Ke School to become the best, and the Shi Lan Ke School team to be number one in the world.
Xiao Wu saw a vendor selling rabbits on the street, felt the rabbits were pitiful, and wanted to release them all. Ningrongrong quickly followed to find her. The two of them suddenly found that Tang San was nowhere to be seen and quickly returned to the school to report. It was dark, but Tang San still hadn't returned. Lan De and Yu Xiaogang reviewed the whole situation and suspected that people from the Royal school had captured Tang San.
Tang San woke up groggily and found himself captured in a mountain cave. He looked around inside and out. From a distance, he heard someone calling his name. Du Gubo suddenly arrived and forced Tang San to confess to poisoning Dugu Yan. Tang San admitted that Ye Zhiqiu had told him to poison Dugu Yan, but he hadn't actually poisoned her.
He explained that he had lost his mind while absorbing the Human Faced Demon Spider Soul Ring, and the bottle of poison had accidentally leaked. Du Gubo was a Poison Douluo, most skilled in using poison. However, he was powerless against the poison in Dugu Yan. It was a highly toxic poison that was constantly mutating. Du Gubo was very surprised that Tang San was also poisoned, yet he couldn't have survived. He forced Tang San to produce an antidote.
Tang San had no choice but to admit that he was immune to all poisons. This was because he had the venom of the Mandragora snake and the poison sac of the Human Faced Demon Spider in his body, and no poison could harm him. Du Gubo forced him to drink a poisonous liquid for a test. Xiao Wu broke into the Royal school to find Tang San. She was blocked by guards.
Xiao Wu was enraged and knocked them unconscious with a few punches and kicks. Yu Tianheng heard the news and rushed to stop Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu was relentless and attacked him with all her might. She was knocked unconscious by Yu Tianheng on the spot. Yu Tianheng wanted to send someone to notify the people from Lan Ba School to take her away.
Prince Xue Xing flatly refused and ordered Xiao Wu to be hung outside the school gate for public display. Lan De, Yu Xiaogang, and Liu Erlong arrived in time to rescue Xiao Wu. Prince Xue Xing threatened and intimidated Lan De. Lan De ignored him and left, supporting Xiao Wu. Du Gubo made Tang San drink many poisons in one go, but he remained unharmed. Du Gubo pressed hard, demanding to know why the Canghui School had poisoned Dugu Yan.
Tang San was also unaware, and he also wanted to find out the secret of the Canghui School. So he went with Du Gubo. Halfway there, Du Gubo discovered that the jade pendant on his chest suddenly flashed red light. Only then did he realize that he was also poisoned. He dared not move forward. Du Gubo had previously transfused Dugu Yan's blood into his body. The closer he got to the Canghui School, the stronger the poison became.
Du Gubo realized that Ye Zhiqiu's target was him. Tang San had no choice but to go to the Canghui School alone to find out the truth. Tang San arrived at the Canghui School. He confronted Ye Zhiqiu and exposed his plot to poison and harm Du Gubo. Ye Zhiqiu took him to see the school director. Tang San's heart was in his throat. Unexpectedly, the person who came out was not his father.
Episode 27 Recap
The person who came out of the room claimed his name was Shi Nian, a teacher at Canghui School. Tang San was eager to know the whereabouts of Hao Tian Douluo. Shi Nian told Tang San that he could meet Hao Tian Douluo if he found a way to enter the finals of the Soul Master Tournament. Shi Nian kept saying he wanted to be friends with Tang San.
Tang San felt he was very kind and followed his words obediently. Shi Nian asked him to tell Du Gubo that if he wanted to resolve the poison in the bodies of the grandfather and granddaughter, he should come to Canghui School to find Shi Nian. Tang San memorized everything one by one and went all the way to see Du Gubo with a foolish smile.
Du Gubo saw him like this and didn't know what to do for a while. Tang San vaguely heard that familiar voice from the depths of his heart calling his name. There were also many Blue Silver Plants around him. Only then did Tang San suddenly wake up, not knowing what had just happened. Du Gubo concluded that he had been controlled by a mental-type Martial Soul.
Yu Tianheng came to ask Xue Qinghe to mediate the conflict between Shi Lan Ke School and Prince Xue Xing. Hu Liena, disguised as Xue Qinghe, opened the door, and he flatly refused. Yu Tianheng had no choice but to leave dejectedly. Du Gubo brought Tang San back to the mountain cave. Because Tang San wanted to participate in the Soul Master Tournament, he proposed that Du Gubo provide 2000 gold soul coins and also help capture Shi Nian.
As long as these two conditions were agreed upon, he would agree to exchange his blood with Dugu Yan's using the Blue Silver Plant. Tang San didn't want his teachers and classmates to worry, so he wanted to go back and report his safety first. Du Gubo brought Tang San to Lan Ba School. Seeing that the entrance was full of people from the Royal School, Du Gubo knocked them out one by one.
Tang San entered and saw Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng dueling. Dai Mubai was defeated again and again. Seeing that Tang San was willing to exchange blood to save someone, Du Gubo infused Soul Skills into Tang San's body to help him duel. Tang San briefly learned about what happened from Ningrongrong. Upon learning that Xiao Wu was hung outside the gate of the Royal School, he was enraged and took over from Dai Mubai.
He knocked Yu Tianheng to the ground with one punch. Prince Xue Xing had no choice but to leave dejectedly with his men. Tang San entered the house to see Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu finally woke up. Du Gubo urged Tang San to quickly go back and save Dugu Yan. Tang San quickly said goodbye to Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu wanted to go with him, so Du Gubo took both of them back to the mountain cave together.
Tang San didn't want Xiao Wu to see the blood exchange scene and wanted her to hide away, but she insisted on watching from the side. Tang San summoned Blue Silver Plants and implanted them into Dugu Yan's body, exchanging their blood through the Blue Silver Plants. Yu Xiaogang learned that Tang San was going to exchange blood with Dugu Yan and worried that if Tang San couldn't persevere, neither of them would survive.
Yu Xiaogang woke up Luosan Pao and told it to track Tang San's scent. Tang San desperately transfused blood for Dugu Yan. His physical strength gradually failed. Du Gubo cheered Tang San on from the side, saying that if they stopped halfway, both of them would die. Xiao Wu infused her Martial Soul power into Tang San from behind, allowing Tang San to continue transfusing blood for Dugu Yan.
Du Gubo sensed someone approaching the mountain cave and quickly came out to stop them. Yu Xiaogang, Lan De, and Liu Erlong used their Martial Soul combination skill - Holy Dragon. Du Gubo summoned poisonous fog to surround them. Yu Xiaogang summoned Luosan Pao to attack. Xiao Wu used all her might. She exhausted all her Martial Soul power and completely depleted the Soul Skills from her two Soul Rings. Finally, she fainted on the ground.
Tang San continued to transfuse blood for Dugu Yan and finally completely resolved the poison in Dugu Yan's body. Du Gubo ruthlessly attacked the Golden Iron Triangle. Yu Xiaogang desperately protected Liu Erlong. Fortunately, Tang San appeared in time. Du Gubo learned that Dugu Yan was completely detoxified and quickly went inside to check. Liu Erlong personally witnessed Yu Xiaogang protecting her with his body. Lan De also testified. Liu Erlong felt warmth in her heart.
Lan De wanted to take Xiao Wu and Tang San away. Tang San wanted to wait until he personally saw Dugu Yan wake up. Soul power is a Soul Master's personal strength and cannot be given to each other, but Xiao Wu was able to transfer Soul power to Tang San. Du Gubo concluded that Xiao Wu was unusual. Xiao Wu woke up, having nothing left.
Tang San wanted to return the Martial Soul power to her, but she had no Soul Rings and couldn't receive Tang San's Soul power. Tang San promised to accompany Xiao Wu to rebuild her Soul power. Afterward, Tang San wanted to use this method to detoxify Du Gubo. Du Gubo politely declined, saying it was enough that Tang San saved Dugu Yan.
Episode 28 Recap
Tang San asked Du Gubo to fulfill his promise and get 2000 gold soul coins. Du Gubo claimed that his food and expenses were all provided by the royal family, and he had no money. Tang San asked him to check if Shi Nian had controlled Hao Tian Douluo. Du Gubo felt it was impossible. Only a mental-type Martial Soul with nine Soul Rings could control Hao Tian Douluo.
Tang San was very dissatisfied, complaining that Du Gubo did not keep his promise and could not fulfill either request. Du Gubo promised to show him a way to make money. Du Gubo brought Tang San and Xiao Wu to a mystic mountain valley. Various medicinal herbs grew here. It was a valley formed after the great battle between a nine-Soul Ring Douluo and people from the Martial Soul Hall. Du Gubo was still a seven-Soul Ring user back then.
He watched the making of medicine and tested poisons here, eventually cultivating to nine Soul Rings. Tang San wanted to make money quickly to pay the registration fee. Waiting to pick herbs and sell them was too slow. So, Du Gubo brought him to an invisible barrier and asked him to find a way to go inside and find more valuable treasures. Du Gubo had tried for many years but couldn't pass through the barrier.
Tang San tried touching the barrier. Suddenly, he heard that gentle, familiar voice reminding Tang San to use the Blue Silver Plant. Tang San summoned the Blue Silver Plant and effortlessly led Xiao Wu through the barrier. Du Gubo was stunned. Tang San and Xiao Wu seemed to have entered a magical world. It was filled with strange flowers and rare herbs.
Xiao Wu recognized rare immortal-grade medicinal herbs like the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum and the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid at a glance. They continued moving forward. A shimmering halo woven from Blue Silver Plants appeared before their eyes. Tang San felt a sense of déjà vu, as it had appeared in his dreams countless times. Xiao Wu tried touching the halo, but she was shocked and fainted. Tang San was burning with anxiety, wondering who had cast a spell on Xiao Wu.
The gentle voice reappeared. She claimed to be Tang San's mother. Tang San had never heard his father mention this, so he didn't believe her. His mother had to admit that she had asked Tang Hao to conceal it. As long as Tang San didn't have the talent to learn the Xuan Tian Treasure Record, he could live a simple and ordinary life and would never come here. If Tang San appeared here, it meant he had the talent.
His mother recounted the events in detail. On the day Tang San was born, Qian Xunji, the head of the Martial Soul Hall, led many experts on a thousand-mile pursuit after her. One reason was her identity, and the other was to reclaim the Xuan Tian Treasure Record. This was because the Xuan Tian Treasure Record was a cultivation method that existed outside of Soul Masters and Soul Beasts.
If one mastered this method, there would be no need to hunt Soul Beasts to enhance one's Martial Soul, completely resolving the long-standing conflict between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts. The Martial Soul Hall would also completely disappear from the Douluo Continent. Regrettably, neither she nor Tang Hao could cultivate this method, which was why Qian Xunji pursued them relentlessly.
His mother regretted not being able to accompany Tang San as he grew up and not giving him familial warmth, which was why she specially created this spatial interlayer for Tang San. Even Tang Hao couldn't enter. His mother repeatedly instructed Tang San not to seek revenge and to cultivate the Xuan Tian Treasure Record and Soul Skills to their peak to completely eliminate the existence of Soul Masters in the Douluo Continent and restore a peaceful world.
His mother specially left this large area of immortal-grade medicinal herbs for Tang San. Finally, his mother also gave Tang San two special gifts: the Acacia Lovebroken Red and the Eyes of Ice and Fire. His mother had hidden all her soul power in the Acacia Lovebroken Red flower before her death, which could help Tang San become a true powerhouse. The Eyes of Ice and Fire could absorb Soul Beasts beyond one's capacity.
Tang San didn't want anything but his mother to return. His mother instructed him to stay close to Tang Hao and absolutely not let him seek revenge against the Martial Soul Hall. After saying these long words, his mother's voice disappeared forever, and the halo before his eyes also vanished. Tang San wept uncontrollably. His first close interaction with his mother in this life ended so quickly. Dugu Yan recovered as before.
Learning that Tang San had saved her life, she lied that she and Tang San were deeply in love, forcing Du Gubo to bring Tang San back. Du Gubo didn't dare to delay and quickly went out to find people. Xiao Wu woke up groggily. Tang San recounted his longing for his mother since childhood and also understood the reason why his father had always expected him to work hard and become strong. Xiao Wu tried to comfort Tang San.
As they were about to leave, Xiao Wu discovered that her Martial Soul power was full, and she could even advance to the fourth Soul Ring. Tang San guessed that it was the power of the Acacia Lovebroken Red left by his mother. Xiao Wu summoned the Acacia Lovebroken Red and found that it had merged with her and was protecting her. Tang San learned that the Eyes of Ice and Fire would disappear after use.
He was reluctant to absorb the spring water of the Eyes of Ice and Fire left by his mother, so he summoned the Blue Silver Plant and took Xiao Wu away from here. Du Gubo had been waiting outside the barrier. Seeing Tang San and the others come out, he urged Tang San to marry Dugu Yan as soon as possible. Dugu Yan had to admit that she was lying and just wanted Du Gubo to bring Tang San back.
Dugu Yan even pretended to kiss Tang San to tease her grandfather, which made Xiao Wu very jealous. Tang San asked Du Gubo to help the Shi Lan Ke School team pass the finals. In return, he would use the Eight-Angled Mysterious Ice Grass he collected from the spatial interlayer to detoxify him. Du Gubo knew that this immortal grass could cure all poisons. After careful consideration, he readily agreed.
Tang San brought Xiao Wu back to the school and gave each classmate some immortal-grade medicinal herbs. They couldn't wait to take them back to their rooms and eat them. Tang San gave Yu Xiaogang a Nine-Rank Purple Ganoderma and also brought immortal grass for Lan De and Liu Erlong. Yu Xiaogang couldn't wait to know the origin of these immortal-grade medicinal herbs. Tang San recounted his experience of entering the spatial interlayer and receiving his mother's gifts in detail.
Tang San swore to find the murderer of his mother. Yu Xiaogang advised him not to seek revenge and explained that Qian Xunji was already dead and had a daughter named Qian Renxue.
Episode 29 Recap
Tang San wanted to eliminate all the people from the Martial Soul Hall who chased his mother one by one. He earnestly begged Yu Xiaogang to tell him the truth of that year. Yu Xiaogang clearly remembered that Tang Hao was once Qian Xunji's right-hand man and one of the top experts. After the Golden Iron Triangle disbanded, Yu Xiaogang followed Tang Hao to the Martial Soul Hall, dedicating himself to the research of mutated Martial Souls.
Shortly after, Tang Hao rebelled against the Martial Soul Hall and was hunted by Qian Xunji. Yu Xiaogang also left the Martial Soul Hall, and the research on mutated Martial Souls was thus put on hold. After Qian Xunji died, his wife, Bi Bi Dong, took over the Martial Soul Hall. Yu Xiaogang no longer paid attention to the affairs of the Martial Soul Hall until mutated Martial Soul medicine appeared in Yehuo Village.
Only then did Yu Xiaogang realize that someone was still researching mutated Martial Souls. Tang San believed that his father was doing this to avenge his mother. Tang San wanted to enter the finals, then stop his father and persuade him not to harm innocent people for revenge. Yu Xiaogang promised to help him reach the finals. Xiao Wu had been distracted.
Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong kept asking, and Xiao Wu finally said that Dugu Yan liking Tang San made her feel flustered. The two of them concluded that Xiao Wu had fallen in love with Tang San and told her to try kissing Tang San to find the feeling of liking him. After taking the Nine-Rank Purple Ganoderma, Yu Xiaogang finally gained his third Soul Ring. From now on, he could smoothly improve his Soul Skills.
Tang San was also happy for him. Du Gubo came to find Tang San overnight and promised that he could enter the finals smoothly without competing. Tang San didn't want to take a shortcut; he wanted to compete fairly based on his own strength. He only asked him to help him out if his opponents used dirty tricks. Du Gubo no longer insisted. He was then eager to seek revenge on the people from Canghui School.
Tang San desperately stopped him and told him to hang the jade pendant up, so that the people from Canghui School wouldn't know his poison had been detoxified, to see their ultimate goal. Du Gubo could only give up and even gave Tang San the nickname "Little Poisonous Thing." Xiao Wu racked her brains to find an opportunity to kiss Tang San, but she was interrupted by others every time. She was burning with anxiety.
Ning Rongrong was curious about Xiao Wu's progress. She quickly went to see what was happening. Zhu Zhuqing also followed closely. Tomorrow was the registration deadline. The immortal-grade medicinal herbs that Tang San brought back could all be sold, but the buyer was coerced by Prince Xue Xing and agreed to pay two days later. Lan De discussed with Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong and planned to ask Xue Qinghe for help tomorrow.
Xiao Wu finally waited until everyone was gone. She wanted to kiss Tang San, but suddenly heard Zhu Zhuqing shouting loudly. She quickly followed Tang San out and learned that Ningrongrong had been taken away. The others also rushed over upon hearing the news. They quickly went out to rescue her but were blocked by a shining sword. Lan De found that this sword's soul power was astonishing, and they were no match for it.
Lan De sent Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang to the branch of the Qibao Amber Pagoda to report the news, and sent Xiao Wu and Tang San to the auction house overnight to keep an eye on the immortal-grade medicinal herbs and get the auction money back as soon as possible to pay the registration fee.
As Lan De expected, Ning Fengzhi, the sect master of the Qibao Amber Pagoda, sent Sword Elder Chen Xin to take Ningrongrong back to the branch and forbid her from returning to Shi Lan Ke School. Someone had hired Chen Xin to act during the finals and promised to help Ningrongrong elevate her Martial Soul to the Nine Treasure Glass Pagoda after the matter was done. Ningrongrong summoned her Martial Soul.
Unexpectedly, after Ningrongrong ate the immortal-grade medicinal herbs, her Martial Soul had already been elevated to the Nine Treasure Glass Pagoda. Ning Fengzhi promised to bid at the auction and did not allow Ningrongrong to leave even half a step. Tang San and Xiao Wu arrived at the auction house. Due to Prince Xue Xing's obstruction, the bidding price for the immortal-grade medicinal herbs dropped again and again.
Prince Xue Xing sent someone to relay a message to Tang San: as long as Tang San and Xiao Wu left Shi Lan Ke, he would allow him to join the Royal School and obtain the qualification to compete. Tang San would never compromise. Thanks to Ning Fengzhi arriving in time, he bought all the immortal-grade medicinal herbs for the price of 2500 gold soul coins. Ou Si Ke rushed to the branch of the Qibao Amber Pagoda.
Chen Xin locked Ningrongrong in the room. Ou Si Ke pleaded with Chen Xin to save Ningrongrong. Chen Xin refused to listen and had someone chase him away. Ningrongrong released fireworks from the crack in the door to ask Ou Si Ke for help. Ou Si Ke quickly rushed in to reason with Chen Xin, convinced that he kidnapped Ningrongrong for the position of sect master. Chen Xin used three swords to threaten Ou Si Ke.
Ou Si Ke released thick smoke and rescued Ningrongrong from the backyard during the chaos. Just as Ou Si Ke was about to take Ningrongrong away, he was caught red-handed by Chen Xin. Chen Xin attacked him violently. Ou Si Ke was beaten and repeatedly begged for mercy, promising to leave and not rescue Ningrongrong again.
Episode 30 Recap
Ou Si Ke said he wouldn't rescue Ning Rongrong verbally and desperately tried to please Chen Xin. Chen Xin relaxed his guard. Ou Si Ke seized the opportunity to summon his Martial Soul, the Kiwifruit, ate it quickly, and while Chen Xin wasn't paying attention, he picked up Ning Rongrong and flew away. Ning Rongrong thanked him. Ou Si Ke lost focus for a moment and forgot the time. The two of them fell to the ground.
Ning Rongrong pulled Ou Si Ke up, and they returned to the school. Ning Fengzhi bought Tang San's immortal-grade medicinal herbs for 2500 gold soul coins and also paid the handling fee for Tang San. He admitted to sending people to take Ning Rongrong away and stated that Ning Rongrong would not be allowed to go to Shi Lan Ke School anymore, nor would she participate in this Soul Master tournament.
As the registration deadline was approaching, Tang San didn't have time for anything else. He pulled Xiao Wu and followed Lan De to register, signing up under the name of the Shi Lan Ke School team. Prince Xue Xing handed the list of the Shi Lan Ke School team to Tai Long. Tai Long was very dismissive of them. Prince Xue Xing told him to destroy the Shi Lan Ke team on the first battle stage.
Ning Fengzhi returned to the branch and learned that Ou Si Ke had rescued Ning Rongrong. He couldn't help but complain to Chen Xin. Chen Xin felt that Ou Si Ke was quite good and instead advised Ning Fengzhi to let go of Ning Rongrong. Ou Si Ke brought Ning Rongrong back to the school and only then realized that Chen Xin was a nine-Soul Ring expert.
He felt a bit scared afterward, worried that Ning Fengzhi would send people to capture Ning Rongrong and take her home again. Ning Rongrong bandaged Ou Si Ke's wounds and promised him that she would not leave Shi Lan Ke. Yu Xiaogang received the tournament schedule. The Shi Lan Ke team's first match was against the Royal School's second team. Since all the students had eaten the immortal-grade medicinal herbs that Tang San brought back, everyone had full soul power.
As long as they killed Soul Beasts to upgrade their Soul Rings, they could improve their competitiveness in a short time. Lan De and Yu Xiaogang discussed and decided to go to the nearby Sunset Forest to find their respective Soul Beasts. Lan De, Liu Erlong, and Yu Xiaogang took the students to the Sunset Forest. To save time, Yu Xiaogang had everyone split up. Lan De took Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ma Hongjun.
Ou Si Ke and Ning Rongrong followed Liu Erlong. Yu Xiaogang was responsible for Tang San and Xiao Wu. Liu Erlong used the excuse that she didn't know the way and insisted on staying with Yu Xiaogang, letting Ning Rongrong and Ou Si Ke follow Lan De. Yu Xiaogang had no choice but to give in. Xiao Wu saw that Liu Erlong liked Yu Xiaogang. Liu Erlong readily admitted it. Yu Xiaogang was very embarrassed and quickly changed the subject.
Liu Erlong first encountered a giant green caterpillar. She summoned her Martial Soul, the Crimson Fire Dragon, and burned the caterpillar to death without any effort. Liu Erlong changed clothes after every battle. Yu Xiaogang asked Xiao Wu to help her. Liu Erlong revealed that only Yu Xiaogang had seen her change clothes. Yu Xiaogang repeatedly explained that it was out of necessity.
The Human Faced Demon Spider tracked their aura and appeared in front of Tang San and the others, but it disappeared in a flash. They pursued it all the way. Yu Xiaogang felt that the situation was not good, but it was too late. A huge Ground Demon Spider jumped out from underground. The demon spider spat silk into a huge spiderweb cage, completely surrounding Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong.
Yu Xiaogang loudly reminded Tang San and Xiao Wu to run quickly. The two of them sprinted into the depths of the forest to escape. The Ground Demon Spider pursued relentlessly. Liu Erlong summoned her Martial Soul and burned the spiderweb. Tang San tightly bound the Ground Demon Spider with his Blue Silver Plant. The demon spider thrust its leg towards Xiao Wu's chest. Tang San extended his spider leg to protect Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu took out the flower of Acacia Broken Heart Red from her chest. Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong arrived shortly after and found that Xiao Wu was safe and sound, only then knowing that the flower had saved her life. The Ground Demon Spider broke free from the Blue Silver Plant's restraint. Liu Erlong used her power to subdue it. Tang San wanted to absorb the Ground Demon Spider's Soul Ring to upgrade his Soul Skills.
Yu Xiaogang reminded him not to take risks. The Ground Demon Spider was at least ten thousand years old, and if he failed, he would lose his life. Tang San wanted to use the Eyes of Ice and Fire, left to him by his mother, to absorb the Ground Demon Spider's Soul Ring.
Liu Erlong, Yu Xiaogang, and the other two went to rendezvous with Lan De and his group, only to learn that Ou Si Ke, Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ma Hongjun had each killed Soul Beasts and advanced to three Soul Rings. Because of the effects of the immortal-grade medicinal herbs, their soul power was still full, so they killed Soul Beasts again to advance to four Soul Rings.
Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun had hunted Soul Beasts that exceeded their limits and had not yet woken up. The Douluo Continent Soul Master Tournament officially opened. The first match of the opening ceremony was the Shi Lan Ke School team against the Royal School's second team. Since Tang San was absorbing a Soul Ring, and Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun had not yet awakened, Lan De sent Ou Si Ke to the stage first.
A giant lotus flower descended from the sky in the middle of the stage. The referee did not appear, giving instructions through the pistil. Everyone present was amazed. Ou Si Ke used an iron crutch to release smoke and took the opportunity to fly into the sky. The stage was filled with smoke. His opponent quickly found him and knocked him to the ground. Ou Si Ke used the item's ice freezing function to hold himself in place.
He supported himself with his hands and did not fall. Ou Si Ke stunned his opponent with electricity and gently touched him with his finger, pushing him off the stage. Ou Si Ke won the first round. Ning Fengzhi, who was watching from the side, thought highly of him and discussed with Chen Xin about letting him join the sect. The second member of the Royal School's second team came onto the stage to challenge Ou Si Ke.
Ou Si Ke voluntarily withdrew and gave up this round. Ning Fengzhi was very disappointed in him and immediately decided not to let him join the sect. Liu Erlong wanted to be the second to go on stage. Yu Xiaogang could not figure out the identity of the referee and advised her not to act rashly. Prince Xue Xing sent someone to remind the referee to favor the royal team. The referee was Ju Douluo of the Martial Soul Hall.
Upon hearing the news, he came to find Prince Xue Xing and promised to help him, even helping him compete with Xue Qinghe for the royal succession. Prince Xue Xing did not accept it at all, believing that the Martial Soul Hall had no place interfering in the royal struggle of the Heaven Dou Empire.
Episode 31 Recap
Shi Nian and Ye Zhiqiu were also watching the match from the side. They found that Tang San had not appeared. Shi Nian wanted to see the strength of the Shi Lan Ke School team before deciding whether to treat them as chess pieces. Ning Rongrong was the second to go on stage. She revealed her Qibao Amber Pagoda but quickly retracted it. Ning Rongrong released several iron balls, detonating the gunpowder Ou Si Ke had left on the stage.
She used the smoke to attack her opponent. The opponent couldn't stand steadily, and both of them fell off the stage. The referee ruled that both of them were out. Zhu Zhuqing quickly went to help Ning Rongrong up. Ou Si Ke gave Ning Rongrong a big sausage to replenish her energy. Lan De sent Zhu Zhuqing on stage third. Her opponent was also a female Soul Master. Zhu Zhuqing knocked her opponent out without any effort.
The Shi Lan Ke School team won another round. The Royal School's second team sent their fourth Soul Master onto the stage to fight Zhu Zhuqing. He immediately saw that Zhu Zhuqing had used the heavy armor from the previous Soul Master and quickly found Zhu Zhuqing's weakness. Zhu Zhuqing fought him with all her might in a decisive battle. Her opponent used all his skills to attack her, which was exactly what Zhu Zhuqing wanted.
Although she was injured, the restraint of the heavy armor was removed. Zhu Zhuqing used her Underworld White Claws to knock her opponent off the stage. The Royal School's second team lost another match. As the competition progressed, Tang San was still absorbing the ten thousand year demon spider's Soul Ring in a spatial interlayer, using the Eyes of Ice and Fire.
At this moment, Tai Long was the last member of the Royal School's second team to go on stage. With a few punches and kicks, he knocked Zhu Zhuqing to the ground. Ning Rongrong loudly urged Zhu Zhuqing to surrender. She was unwilling, struggling to jump up and fight Tai Long to the death. As a result, she was knocked off the stage, and Zhu Zhuqing was forced out of the competition. Ma Hongjun woke up first.
He saw the note on the table, but he couldn't read. Dai Mubai woke up and saw the note on the table, only then realizing that the competition had already started. Without a second thought, he pulled Ma Hongjun and hurried towards the Soul Fighting Arena. Ju Douluo called out several times, but no one from the Shi Lan Ke School went on stage. Just as the final three-second countdown began, Tang San arrived on time.
He revealed his four Soul Rings, one of which was a ten thousand year black Soul Ring. Tai Long was unconvinced. He had no Soul Skills and attacked Tang San using his physical strength. Tang San used his Blue Silver Plant and demon spider Soul Skills to tightly bind Tai Long and push him off the stage. When Tai Long woke up, he realized he was already out. The Shi Lan Ke team achieved today's victory. Dai Mubai rushed over.
Hearing that the match had ended and seeing that Zhu Zhuqing was the most seriously injured, he picked her up without a word and left. The others also happily left the Soul Fighting Arena. Prince Xue Xing summoned Tai Long to hold him accountable and told him to have his grandfather, the Soul Douluo Tai Tan, kill Tang San tonight. That night, Tang San locked himself in his room to study the "Xuan Tian Treasure Record".
Xiao Wu came to see him. Tang San wanted to create a power system different from that of Soul Masters. Xiao Wu was naturally very happy about this. If Soul Masters didn't need to kill Soul Beasts to upgrade their Soul Rings, humans could live in peace with Soul Beasts. Tang San felt it was very difficult to achieve.
He tried to combine the Xuan Tian Skill with the Blue Silver Plant, but the Xuan Tian Skill could only be auxiliary. Shi Nian heard that Prince Xue Xing had asked Tai Tan for help to deal with Tang San. He thought it over repeatedly, decided to give up Tang San as a chess piece, and sent Ye Zhiqiu to find Du Gubo. Tai Long and Tai Tan suddenly burst in and captured Xiao Wu, threatening to kill Tang San.
Tang San clearly knew he was an eight-Soul Ring expert, but he was unwilling to surrender just like that. Tai Tan told Tang San to find a way to enter that door, and he would agree to let him go. If he couldn't get in, he should meekly accept death. Tang San summoned his Blue Silver Plant to tightly entangle Tai Tan, but he easily broke free completely.
Tang San secretly summoned his Hao Tian Hammer from his back and fiercely smashed at Tai Tan. Although Tang San quickly retracted the hammer, he was still discovered by Tai Tan, who fiercely interrogated him about his relationship with Tang Hao. Tang San found all sorts of excuses to prevaricate. Yu Xiaogang came to find Tang San and discovered the unconscious Xiao Wu.
He realized the situation was bad, so he called upon Lan De and Liu Erlong to come and rescue Tang San. Yu Xiaogang told Tang San to say his father's name. Tai Tan immediately knelt down on the spot and called Tang San "Young Master". Before Tai Tan could explain everything, Du Gubo suddenly arrived and knocked Tai Tan and Tai Long unconscious.
Tang San repeatedly explained that they were not enemies and begged Du Gubo to wake Tai Tan and Tai Long up. Tai Tan wanted to talk to Tang San alone, so Du Gubo had no choice but to step aside. Tang San asked Xiao Wu to stay. Tai Tan introduced himself as having the surname Tai, and said that if it wasn't for Tang Hao saving them back then, the Tai family would have been wiped out.
Episode 32 Recap
Tai Tan elaborated on the past events in detail. Tang Hao knew that people from the Martial Soul Hall were pursuing him and did not want to implicate Tai Tan, so he told him to look for the elusive Seagod Island.
After much effort, Tai Tan arrived at the edge of the Douluo Continent and was preparing to find a ship to Seagod Island when he heard that the Martial Soul Hall was hunting down Tang Hao and his wife everywhere. Tai Tan immediately rushed back to Martial Soul City, only to find out that Tang Hao's wife had been killed and Tang Hao was seriously injured and missing. Tai Tan used his connections to inquire everywhere but found nothing.
Tai Tan led his people to attack the Martial Soul Hall, wanting to avenge Tang Hao. Qian Xunji was only focused on chasing down Tang Hao with his people, so Tai Tan thus offended the Martial Soul Hall and could only lead his entire clan to flee. They finally arrived at Tiandou City, where Prince Xue Xing took them in. Tai Tan asked Tang San about Tang Hao's whereabouts, wanting to apologize to him.
Tang San suspected that his father, Tang Hao, was behind the Cang Hui School. He only wanted to reach the finals so he could see his father. Tai Tan firmly believed in Tang Hao's character; he would never do anything harmful and unjust, much less hurt the innocent. Tang San did not want people to know about his relationship with Tai Tan and asked Tai Tan to keep it a secret.
Shi Nian mistakenly thought that Du Guyan and Du Gubo had not been detoxified, so he sent Ye Zhiqiu to deliver the antidote and asked Du Gubo to take action during the finals. Du Gubo felt something was wrong with Ye Zhiqiu; his spirit seemed to be controlled by someone. He used his nine Soul Ring power to control him and then came to inform Tang San.
Tang San, Yu Xiaogang, and others came to the cave to see Ye Zhiqiu. Du Gubo lifted Ye Zhiqiu's spiritual control, and he remembered everything. He explained the truth to Tang San, saying that he, like Tang San, was a chess piece controlled by Shi Nian. Ye Zhiqiu wanted to resist Shi Nian. Among the people he knew, there were not many who had a bottom line and were trustworthy.
Tang San was someone with a bottom line, and he was willing to trust Tang San and then help Tang San find the person behind the Cang Hui School. Tang San wanted to lend him a hand, but Ye Zhiqiu politely declined, wanting to try it himself first and talk about it after tomorrow's competition. Early the next morning, Yu Xiaogang brought Tang San and Xiao Wu to the Soul Fighting Arena early to watch the matches.
Today, the opposing sides were the Royal School's second team and the Cang Hui School team. On the Cang Hui School's spectator stand, there were only Shi Nian and Ye Zhiqiu. Tang San noticed that Ye Zhiqiu's expression was very calm. He glanced at Shi Nian and was instantly locked by Shi Nian's gaze, unable to move. Xiao Wu kept feeding Tang San things to eat, and only then did Tang San slowly wake up. The match began.
Ye Zhiqiu fought alone against the six members of the Royal School team. Tai Long was the first to go on stage. He summoned his Martial Soul and rushed over, shouting, to attack Ye Zhiqiu. Ye Zhiqiu simply tapped lightly and knocked Tai Long off the stage. Everyone present was stunned; no one saw Ye Zhiqiu reveal his Martial Soul, yet he achieved victory so easily. After the match ended, Ye Zhiqiu won six consecutive rounds and emerged victorious.
Tang San and Yu Xiaogang came onto the stage to look for clues left by the Soul Skill Ye Zhiqiu used and finally found some microorganisms. Zhu Zhuqing was seriously injured. Dai Mubai stayed by her side step by step, taking meticulous care of her and even personally changing her dressing. Zhu Zhuqing felt warmth in her heart and started worrying that he wouldn't be able to defeat Dai Weishi.
Dai Mubai advised her to rest assured and recover, not to worry unnecessarily. Yu Xiaogang rushed back to discuss countermeasures with Dai Mubai, telling him the results of today's match. The Shi Lan Ke School team's next match was against the Xiang Jia Sect School, one of the Seven Great Sects. Yu Xiaogang told Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun not to go on stage for now, but to wait until after two rounds when they face the Cang Hui School.
Tang San worked overtime at the blacksmith shop to make armor, wanting to give one to each student for self-defense. Xiao Wu was by his side, cheering him on and wiping his sweat. On the day of the Shi Lan Ke team's match against the Xiang Jia Sect team, Tang San led Xiao Wu, Ou Si Ke, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing onto the stage. The opposing five members came up together, either lining up or forming a circle.
Their defense was tight. Tang San directed his teammates to break through them one by one. Tang San and the others worked in perfect harmony, each using their secret Soul Skills. First, they eliminated two people, then immediately forced two more off the stage. When the Xiang Jia Sect team had only one member left, he automatically surrendered. Tang San couldn't wait to go back and report the good news to Yu Xiaogang.
Yu Xiaogang was researching Ye Zhiqiu's Martial Soul and Soul Skills. Regarding the corrosive nature of the microorganisms, he told Tang San to finish the match quickly when he goes on stage. If the match is delayed for too long, he will be controlled by the microorganisms released by Ye Zhiqiu.
Episode 33 Recap
Yu Xiaogang found out that the Shi Lan Ke School team's next match was against the Blazing Fire School. The Blazing Fire School only recruited Fire-type Martial Soul users. Yu Xiaogang told Tang San to focus on improving the fire resistance of his Blue Silver Plant and also asked Ma Hongjun's Evil Fire Phoenix to help him train. Shi Nian was very satisfied with Ye Zhiqiu's performance.
Ye Zhiqiu wanted to launch a surprise attack on him using his Martial Soul Soul Skill when he was unprepared, but he was discovered by Shi Nian. However, the competition had already started, and the roster for the Cang Hui School was confirmed. If Ye Zhiqiu died, the Cang Hui School would lose its qualification. Shi Nian could only give him a harsh lesson first.
Ye Zhiqiu wanted to see Tang Hao, and also wanted to see the other teammates controlled by Shi Nian. Shi Nian promised to talk about it after entering the finals. Ma Hongjun helped Tang San train the fire resistance of his Blue Silver Plant. His fire Soul Skill caused no damage to the Blue Silver Plant.
Yu Xiaogang found Liu Erlong and used her fire Soul Skill for testing, and discovered that Tang San's Blue Silver Plant was still completely unharmed. Tang San guessed it was because he had absorbed the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well left by his mother. Prince Xue Xing came to see Ning Fengzhi overnight, persuading him to take Ning Rongrong home. Ning Fengzhi saw through his trick at a glance, which was to disrupt the Shi Lan Ke School team.
However, Ning Fengzhi couldn't figure out why Prince Xue Xing was targeting the Shi Lan Ke School everywhere. Today, the Shi Lan Ke School team was facing the Blazing Fire School team. Tang San led Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, Ou Si Ke, and Zhu Zhuqing onto the stage. They completely looked down on the Blazing Fire School team, boasting that they would win the championship of this competition.
The opposing five members positioned themselves in five directions and launched a fire attack together. Tang San summoned his Blue Silver Plant to surround his teammates in the center of the stage. Flames surged from the five directions, like five walls of fire, but they couldn't get close to them at all. Tang San wanted to lead his companions to break through the fire walls, but suddenly felt his consciousness become hazy.
The five people successively fell to the ground and fainted. The Blazing Fire School easily claimed victory. After the match ended, Yu Xiaogang severely reprimanded Tang San and the others, criticizing them for being too careless and underestimating the enemy. The opponents defeated them without even fully unleashing their Soul Skills. Tang San repeatedly admitted his mistake, and the others also realized the seriousness of the problem and fell into deep self-blame.
Ning Fengzhi saw this scene in the room and praised Yu Xiaogang for doing the right thing, saying that young people like Tang San and the others should be frequently corrected to keep them clear-headed. Tang San was unwilling to admit defeat just like that. He vowed to compete with the Cang Hui School. The students were also filled with excitement and encouraged each other. Ning Fengzhi felt greatly relieved when he saw this scene.
He also spoke about the time he was coerced. At that time, a titled Douluo came to find Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin, forcing them to watch the Soul Master Tournament live. Afterwards, one person had to be killed, or the Qibao Amber Pagoda Sect would be destroyed. Ning Fengzhi had no choice but to send Ning Rongrong to the Shi Lan Ke School because the Shi Lan Ke School was not qualified to participate.
Unexpectedly, the Shi Lan Ke School also appeared on the field. He could see that Tang San and the others were determined to win, so he could only support their decision. Everyone tried their best to persuade Ou Si Ke to withdraw from the competition because Ou Si Ke's dream was to establish a theater troupe and write more plays.
Although Ou Si Ke did not want to leave the team, he was thinking about his cherished dream, feeling very conflicted. He could only find an excuse to leave first. Ou Si Ke went wandering around a nearby prop shop. Prince Xue Xing suddenly brought people to find him and gave him the Prosperous Star Troupe, one of the three major theater troupes in Tiandou City. This was something Ou Si Ke had always dreamed of. When Tai Long learned that Prince Xue Xing had bought the Prosperous Star Troupe and given it to Ou Si Ke, he immediately came to inform Tang San.
Episode 34 Recap
Tai Long cursed at Ou Si Ke, saying he was a traitor for leaving the Shi Lan Ke team for a small theater troupe. Tang San, instead, was happy for Ou Si Ke, saying that the theater troupe had always been his dream, and Tang San could not selfishly hinder Ou Si Ke from pursuing his ideal. Instead, he spoke kindly to Tai Long to persuade him.
Prince Xue Xing asked Ou Si Ke to withdraw from Shi Lan Ke School and revitalize the Prosperous Star Troupe. He kept urging Ou Si Ke to sign the transfer agreement. Ou Si Ke was reluctant to give up such a good opportunity, but he was even more reluctant to leave Shi Lan Ke. Finally, with a heavy heart, he refused Prince Xue Xing's bribe. Ou Si Ke immediately returned to the school, insisting on fighting alongside everyone.
The students were united in purpose and vowed together to achieve the final victory. Today was a crucial battle; the winner would have a chance to enter the finals. Yu Xiaogang and the students were eager and ready to go. From Cang Hui School, only Ye Zhiqiu went onto the stage. The entire Shi Lan Ke School team participated. Dai Mubai was the first to take his stance and reveal his Soul Ring.
The referee, Ju Douluo, immediately recognized that he had eaten the Wonderous Velvet Sky-reaching Chrysanthemum and wanted to take him as his disciple on the spot. He claimed that his Soul Skills could only be cultivated by people who had eaten this type of immortal herb, and in all these years, he had only seen one person who had eaten it.
Not wanting to miss this rare opportunity, Dai Mubai was only focused on winning the match and was not interested in this. Ju Douluo could only wait until he finished the match to talk further. Tang San directed his teammates to reveal their respective Martial Souls, preparing for a chaotic fight against Ye Zhiqiu. Unexpectedly, Ye Zhiqiu suddenly surrendered automatically and left the stage without looking back.
The members of the Shi Lan Ke team looked at each other, unsure of Ye Zhiqiu's true intention. They won this match without losing a single person. After the match ended, Ye Zhiqiu went directly to Tang San to explain the truth. Shi Nian was very optimistic about Tang San and decided to let Shi Lan Ke enter the finals.
As he left, Ye Zhiqiu cheered for Tang San and gave him a note, inviting him to meet in the city that evening. As soon as Ju Douluo got off the stage, he went to find Dai Mubai and desperately begged him to become his disciple. Dai Mubai did not want to betray Shi Lan Ke School and his teacher, and resolutely refused Ju Douluo's kind offer.
Prince Xue Xing felt that Xue Qinghe had been very strange recently and suspected he was being controlled by people from the Martial Soul Hall, so he brought people to confirm. Qian Renxue, who had transformed into Xue Qinghe, calmly led Prince Xue Xing into the room. When Prince Xue Xing saw the controlled Xue Qinghe, his judgment was confirmed.
Just as he was about to go out and call people to arrest the fake Xue Qinghe, he found that the guards had already been controlled. The fake Xue Qinghe, under the charge of attempting to assassinate the Crown Prince, ordered Prince Xue Xing's arrest. Xiao Wu felt that Tang San had been very strange after meeting Ye Zhiqiu, so she came to find him overnight to ask for the reason.
Tang San was very surprised that Xiao Wu could see through everything in his heart. He then took out the note Ye Zhiqiu had given him and took Xiao Wu to meet Ye Zhiqiu in the city. Ju Douluo hid to the side and saw this scene. Ou Si Ke stayed up all night helping Ningrongrong make earrings to give to her. Ma Hongjun was curious about his feelings for Ningrongrong, and Ou Si Ke admitted it without hesitation.
Liu Erlong helped Yu Xiaogang wash clothes, and fearing they wouldn't dry by tomorrow, she used her fire Martial Soul to dry them. Yu Xiaogang felt it was a waste for her and couldn't help but complain a few words. Liu Erlong was willing to do anything for him.
Lan De had been practicing outside all night to create an opportunity for himself and Liu Erlong to be alone in the morning, but it was freezing outside, and Lan De quickly couldn't bear it anymore. He had to come into the room to urge Liu Erlong to leave. Yu Xiaogang, naturally, couldn't be more pleased and also chimed in, repeatedly urging Liu Erlong.
Suddenly, a petal of the Wonderous Velvet Sky-reaching Chrysanthemum floated in, and all three of them were drugged unconscious. Dai Mubai formulated a battle plan and loudly called for Ma Hongjun and the others to come discuss. Only then did he discover that Lan De, Yu Xiaogang, Liu Erlong, Ningrongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, Ou Si Ke, and Ma Hongjun were all unconscious. Dai Mubai didn't hesitate to carry Zhu Zhuqing out.
Ju Douluo suddenly appeared and admitted that he had done all of this, surprised that Dai Mubai was most concerned about Zhu Zhuqing. Ju Douluo once again forced Dai Mubai to be his disciple, promising to help him defeat Dai Weishi and even guaranteeing to make him the king of the Star Luo Kingdom. Dai Mubai forbade him from interfering in this matter and told him to find someone else to be his disciple.
Ju Douluo claimed that his cultivation would have no one to inherit it and that only Dai Mubai was qualified to be his disciple. He promised to help Dai Mubai cheat to win the following matches. Dai Mubai learned that he would first have to become a member of the Martial Soul Hall to be qualified as Ju Douluo's disciple. Dai Mubai was very resistant and only begged Ju Douluo to wake Zhu Zhuqing up.
Ju Douluo gently waved his hand, and Zhu Zhuqing woke up. Tang San and Xiao Wu arrived on time to meet Ye Zhiqiu. Ye Zhiqiu led the two of them to an empty courtyard, where the other four students from the Cang Hui School team were held. They were all mentally controlled by Shi Nian. Ye Zhiqiu stole an antidote and wanted to help Du Gubo detoxify.
Just as Xiao Wu wanted to approach that room, two phantom-like Void Spears suddenly appeared. Xiao Wu was very curious and fought with the Void Spears. The spear split into four. Xiao Wu flipped up and down, dodging the attacks. Suddenly, several Return Mirrors appeared before her eyes. Ye Zhiqiu advised Xiao Wu to stop, but Xiao Wu wanted to try once more. Countless Void Spears shot out from the Return Mirrors, surrounding Xiao Wu.
Ye Zhiqiu told Tang San to persuade Xiao Wu to come back quickly, or she would surely die. Xiao Wu used Instant Movement to quickly jump out of the encirclement. Ye Zhiqiu loudly stopped his companions from using their power and led Tang San and Xiao Wu into the room. They saw four people who were like walking corpses. They were controlled by Shi Nian's Martial Soul, Remnant Dream, and forced into their respective dreams.
They were already unconscious and unable to communicate with anyone. To allow Ye Zhiqiu to compete, Shi Nian had only sealed his memory. Ye Zhiqiu wanted to save his companions, which was why he sought help from Du Gubo and Tang San to defeat Shi Nian and completely escape from Cang Hui School.
Episode 35 Recap
Tang San eagerly asked Ye Zhiqiu if the person behind Cang Hui School was Tang Hao. Ye Zhiqiu had only met that person once, and he was in the form of a black smoke when talking to Shi Nian. Ye Zhiqiu didn't know the person's true appearance. Tang San secretly vowed in his heart that if his father was indeed the person behind Cang Hui School, he would stop his father from continuing to do evil at any cost.
Early the next morning, the Shi Lan Ke team was to set off for Martial Soul Hall city. Ning Fengzhi had sent strong horses and soft carriages beforehand, hoping they could travel comfortably to Martial Soul Hall city. Yu Xiaogang dismissed the carriage team on the spot, wanting to use this opportunity to improve the students' endurance. Ningrongrong complained incessantly. Lan De went ahead to negotiate with people from Martial Soul Hall.
Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang then led the students on the road. Yu Xiaogang and his group trekked over mountains and waded through rivers, traveling day and night. Everyone helped each other; the journey was arduous but happy. Liu Erlong felt sour thinking about Yu Xiaogang meeting Bi Bi Dong, the Supreme Pontiff of Martial Soul Hall.
Yu Xiaogang admitted that he and Bi Bi Dong had been in love, but she chose to marry Qian Xunji, who was the Supreme Pontiff at the time, so Yu Xiaogang had to withdraw. Ou Si Ke and Ningrongrong accompanied each other all the way, and he gave Ningrongrong the earrings he made for her to make her happy. Dai Mubai explained to Zhu Zhuqing about kissing her years ago.
Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai had gone through life and death together for so long, she had long since let go. Four school teams arrived outside Martial Soul Hall city one after another, but only Shi Lan Ke School was late. Lan De was burning with anxiety; all five teams needed to complete the procedures together to successfully enter the city.
Ju Douluo told Lan De to go ahead and handle the competition procedures, while he would wait at the city gate for the students to arrive. Lan De had no choice but to comply. Just then, Xue Qinghe led a magnificent procession into Martial Soul Hall city. Ju Douluo and Lan De were both very curious. In fact, Xue Qinghe was impersonated by Qian Renxue. She came directly to report back to Bi Bi Dong.
Qian Renxue had initially planned to transform into Dai Mubai to control the Star Luo Kingdom, but later discovered that Dai Mubai had a very powerful older brother, Dai Weishi. She temporarily changed her mind and successfully replaced Xue Qinghe. Qian Renxue suggested to Bi Bi Dong to integrate the forces of Martial Soul Hall and Tian Dou City, conquer the Star Luo Kingdom in one fell swoop, unify the world, and establish a Martial Soul Kingdom.
Bi Bi Dong loudly reprimanded her. Qian Renxue felt wronged and couldn't help but complain. She had been fighting on the front lines, facing death multiple times. It was thanks to Tang San's timely rescue that she returned alive. Bi Bi Dong curiously inquired about Tang San's situation. Qian Renxue was very sad and complained that Bi Bi Dong didn't care about her life or death.
Upon learning that Tang San had four Soul Rings, and his fourth Soul Ring was a ten-thousand-year Soul King, Bi Bi Dong summoned a ten-thousand-year Demon Fox and told Qian Renxue to go advance her fourth Soul Ring. Yu Xiaogang and his group arrived at Martial Soul Hall city covered in dust, seeing Ju Douluo waiting at the city gate. Ju Douluo wanted to take Tang San to see someone.
Dai Mubai adamantly refused, worried that Tang San would be in danger. Ju Douluo guaranteed Tang San's safety, only then did Dai Mubai agree to yield. Ju Douluo brought Tang San to meet Bi Bi Dong, the Supreme Pontiff of Martial Soul Hall. He remembered what his mother had said before she died, and he suppressed the hatred in his heart to meet Bi Bi Dong. As soon as Tang San entered, he saw Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue displayed her newly advanced ten-thousand-year Soul Ring to challenge him, boasting that she would win this competition. Bi Bi Dong controlled Tang San and easily discovered that Tang San had a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring and possessed both the Blue Silver Plant and Hao Tian Hammer Martial Souls. Bi Bi Dong determined that he was Tang Hao's son and clearly stated that she did not participate in the pursuit years ago.
Tang San pressed her hard, asking who participated in the pursuit of his parents, but Bi Bi Dong avoided answering and told him they would meet on the competition grounds. Tang San came out dejected. Qian Renxue proactively offered to see him off and also take him for a tour of Martial Soul Hall city. Gui Douluo suddenly appeared.
He had been ordered to notify the people of the Star Luo Kingdom and had now returned to report back to Bi Bi Dong. Tang San noticed that his back was just a black shadow, which instantly formed into a human shape and disappeared. Tang San recalled that Yu Xiaogang had personally witnessed the person who killed Su Yuntao was a black shadow.
Qian Renxue firmly believed that Gui Douluo would not kill people and suspected that the person behind Cang Hui School had impersonated Gui Douluo to kill Su Yuntao. Qian Renxue asked Tang San to investigate the person behind Cang Hui School. Tang San suggested entering the library to check the records of Martial Soul Hall's actions over the years. Qian Renxue immediately became alert.
Tang San lied, claiming he wanted to check the love history between Yu Xiaogang and Bi Bi Dong, only then did Qian Renxue relax her guard. Yu Xiaogang guessed that Ju Douluo had taken Tang San to meet Bi Bi Dong, so he came to find Bi Bi Dong overnight to demand for Tang San. The two former lovers were now like strangers. Bi Bi Dong repeatedly explained that she had already released Tang San.
Yu Xiaogang turned around and wanted to leave, but Bi Bi Dong desperately tried to make him stay, promising to make him a well-known Soul Master. Yu Xiaogang was not interested in this; they chose different things and different paths. Then, Yu Xiaogang left without looking back. Qian Renxue gave her Martial Soul token to Tang San, allowing him to access the library to check documents anytime.
When they went out, they encountered Xie Yue, the captain of the Martial Soul Hall team. Xie Yue used his Soul Skill to attack Tang San. Qian Renxue desperately tried to stop him, telling Tang San to leave quickly. Xie Yue was unwilling and told Tang San to state his name, saying they would meet on the competition grounds. Tang San encountered Yu Xiaogang after leaving. Yu Xiaogang also didn't know the exit of Martial Soul Hall.
The two of them had to search as they walked. Unexpectedly, the Martial Soul token was very authoritative, and people everywhere they went were respectful. Tang San decided to use this token to go to the library first. Yu Xiaogang and Tang San also didn't expect that Hu Liena, who only had four Soul Rings, would possess such a useful token.
Episode 36 Recap
Tang San held the Martial Soul token and entered the library with Yu Xiaogang to look through old documents. He and Yu Xiaogang searched separately. Tang San was eager to find out who pursued his parents back then. At the same time, Dai Mubai took the other members into the city and ran into Dai Weishi head-on. Without a word, Dai Weishi broke the claw of Dai Mubai's White Tiger Martial Soul, forcing him to withdraw from the competition.
He threatened that if they met on the competition grounds, he would take Dai Mubai's life. While searching the documents, Tang San asked about Bi Bi Dong. He learned that her Martial Souls were Death Spider Emperor and Soul Eating Spider Emperor. Tang San suspected he had just been controlled by Bi Bi Dong, which was why he involuntarily revealed his Martial Soul. Yu Xiaogang immediately became alert. Even a Titled Douluo couldn't control someone else's Martial Soul.
He suspected Bi Bi Dong had cultivated other Soul Skills. Tang San suddenly saw a figure that vanished in an instant. He quickly chased after it and found that the section of the documents about the pursuit of his parents by Qian Xunji, the former Supreme Pontiff of Martial Soul Hall, had been taken by that person just now. What remained were only records of Qian Xunji being severely injured and difficult to recover, and the nationwide grand sacrifice.
Yu Xiaogang looked through the documents from before the pursuit and discovered that Qian Xunji had sent an elite fleet to Sea God Island, led by Tang Hao. Yu Xiaogang analyzed that Tang Hao met Tang San's mother on Sea God Island, and the pursuit was related to this sea voyage. Yu Xiaogang and Tang San returned to their lodging early the next morning. Lan De handed them the competition schedule.
The Tian Dou Royal School team and the Martial Soul Hall team were in one group, while the Shi Lan Ke School team, Blazing Academy, and Cang Hui School were in another group. The first battle was against the Star Luo Kingdom team that Dai Weishi was on. Tang San and Yu Xiaogang learned that Dai Mubai had been injured by Dai Weishi and rushed over to see.
Upon learning that Dai Mubai's Martial Soul was crippled, Dai Mubai was disheartened and only wanted Zhu Zhuqing to stay by his side. Tang San was worried for Dai Mubai and hoped he would cheer up soon and get his Martial Soul repaired as quickly as possible.
Yu Xiaogang and Lan De racked their brains to come up with a way to stimulate Dai Mubai's fighting spirit: they would put Zhu Zhuqing in danger, and Dai Mubai would definitely try to save her without hesitation. Zhu Zhuqing was willing to cooperate with them to help Dai Mubai regain his Martial Soul. Du Gubo and Ning Fengzhi both received a secret order to assassinate Bi Bi Dong. Du Gubo came overnight to discuss with Tang San.
Tang San suspected that the person behind this was his father, but Bi Bi Dong denied participating in the pursuit back then. Tang San wanted to stop his father from murdering Bi Bi Dong. He discussed it with Xiao Wu, wanting to find Ye Zhiqiu after the competition tomorrow to clarify. The most important thing right now was to help Dai Mubai win this battle. Dai Mubai remained depressed.
Ma Hongjun and Ou Si Ke tried their best to cheer him up, but he remained dispirited. Yu Xiaogang rushed over to notify Dai Mubai that Zhu Zhuqing had gone to challenge Dai Weishi to a duel, to fight for Dai Mubai's position as king. Without a word, Dai Mubai chased after her. Zhu Zhuqing came to confront Dai Weishi. The two started fighting as soon as they disagreed.
Dai Weishi launched a ruthless attack on Zhu Zhuqing, threatening to cripple one of her legs. Dai Mubai arrived in time to rescue her, charging forward fearlessly to fight Dai Weishi. His fighting spirit rekindled, and Dai Mubai's Martial Soul also repaired itself. At this moment, Ju Douluo suddenly arrived to stop the fight between the brothers, forbidding them from contacting each other privately outside the competition grounds. Dai Mubai decided to have a one-on-one match with Dai Weishi tomorrow.
Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but worry for him. Ju Douluo suggested that Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing use their Martial Soul Fusion Skill. Only if both of them had eaten Immortal Grade Herbs and had absolute trust in each other could they fuse.
Ju Douluo suddenly received a message via bird from the Star Dou Great Forest, learning that the two Beast Kings were driving a great tide of Soul Beasts out of the forest, heading straight for Martial Soul City. Ju Douluo immediately returned to report to Bi Bi Dong. Bi Bi Dong ordered Ju Douluo and Gui Douluo to stay, while the other Titled Douluo would go out of the city together to face the Beast Kings.
Gui Douluo also wanted to participate, asking Ju Douluo to stay and serve as the competition referee, and also protect Bi Bi Dong. Xiao Wu was worried that the Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest would be killed and wanted to go out of the city to stop them, but it was too late. Tang San advised her not to worry, believing that the Beast Kings wouldn't let the Soul Beasts die in vain.
Shi Nian separately used his Soul Skill on the four students from the Cang Hui School team, making them enter a state of frenzy, and told Ye Zhiqiu to lead them into the competition. Afterward, Shi Nian gave Ye Zhiqiu an arrowhead and told him to go see someone at Martial Soul Hall, and not to ask around. The competition officially began. The final winners would receive two Soul Bones provided by Martial Soul Hall.
The first day's match was the Shi Lan Ke School team versus the Star Luo Kingdom team. Bi Bi Dong personally came to supervise the battle. Ju Douluo announced a five-on-five melee. Dai Mubai proactively requested one-on-one matches, taking the field with Zhu Zhuqing. Dai Weishi and a female team member met them. Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing took their positions and fused their Martial Souls.
Episode 37 Recap
Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing took the field to fight Dai Weishi and his teammate. Tang San unintentionally saw Ye Zhiqiu and took Xiao Wu to see him. Ye Zhiqiu was ordered by Shi Nian to go to Martial Soul Hall to meet someone and took out that arrowhead. Tang San learned that person only recognized the arrowhead and not the person, and proactively offered to go investigate. Xiao Wu wanted to go to Martial Soul Hall together.
Tang San worried she would be in danger, but Xiao Wu insisted on facing it with him. Dai Weishi greatly underestimated his opponent. He fought against Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing alone. Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai used their Martial Soul Fusion Skill to launch a fierce attack on him. Dai Weishi countered. Zhu Zhuqing coordinated with Dai Mubai to use White Tiger Violent Light Wave, knocking Dai Weishi down on the spot. His female teammate came up to assist.
Dai Weishi was not convinced, forcefully pushed her away, and insisted on fighting Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing alone. As a result, he couldn't stand steadily and fell on the stage. Ju Douluo announced that Shi Lan Ke School won. After the match ended, the teammates came together to congratulate Dai Mubai. Dai Mubai thanked Zhu Zhuqing for her full cooperation, saying he wouldn't have won otherwise.
Ou Si Ke also wanted to try a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Ningrongrong, but she disdained the idea. Ou Si Ke asked Lan De to treat everyone to a celebratory meal, and Lan De readily agreed. The next match was between the Royal School and the Martial Soul Hall team.
Dai Mubai stayed to watch, wanting to seize the opportunity to grasp the opponents' strength and tactics so he could know himself and the enemy when they fought in the future. Zhu Zhuqing, Ma Hongjun, Ningrongrong, and Ou Si Ke watched this match together. Tang San took Xiao Wu to Martial Soul Hall. There were no guards there because Tang San had the Martial Soul token, and the two of them successfully entered the main hall.
A Martial Soul Hall deacon led them to a secret room behind Bi Bi Dong's seat. Tang San saw two Soul Bones placed inside at a glance. Those were the prizes for the champions of this Soul Master Grand Competition. The deacon told Tang San to insert the arrowhead into the Soul Bone and urged them to leave quickly. The Royal School sent out five team members, led by Yu Tianheng.
The Martial Soul Hall team only had Captain Xie Yue and Yan, two people. Qian Renxue watched from the side. Xie Yue launched the first attack and effortlessly knocked out the other four people. Yu Tianheng struggled hard. He summoned his Martial Soul to counterattack, but was firmly controlled by Xie Yue. Yu Tianheng could only admit defeat. Du Guyan from the Royal School was not convinced and rushed up to attack Yan.
Yan used his fire Soul Skill to meet the attack. Du Guyan was surrounded by raging flames. Yu Tianheng persuaded her to stop, and Du Guyan had to admit defeat. Yan was unrelenting, continuing to unleash fire on her. Qian Renxue stopped him in time and invited the Royal team members to join Martial Soul Hall. The deacon committed suicide on the spot, creating the illusion of stealing property and committing suicide out of fear of punishment.
Tang San immediately took Xiao Wu to the library to check the people who had viewed the documents about the pursuit incident over the years. Unexpectedly, that person turned out to be Ju Douluo. This was as Tang San expected; Ju Douluo was the mole in Martial Soul Hall. He had colluded with Cang Hui School, wanting to get rid of Bi Bi Dong. Tang San immediately took Xiao Wu to find Ye Zhiqiu to report this matter.
When Bi Bi Dong presented the awards to the champions, the arrowhead inserted in the Soul Bone could serve as an assassination tool. Tang San decided to personally find Ju Douluo to clarify. Ju Douluo reported to Bi Bi Dong about the deacon stealing gold Soul coins and committing suicide out of fear of punishment. Bi Bi Dong was very disdainful.
Ju Douluo found that teams like Shenfeng School, Blazing Academy, and Thunderbolt Academy were established at the same time and were also focused on cultivating similar types of Martial Souls. Ju Douluo suggested eradicating all of them to prevent future trouble. Bi Bi Dong speculated that these schools were experimenting with the path of Martial Soul extremization and was also certain that there were other forces in Douluo Continent besides Martial Soul Hall that wanted to contend with it.
Today's match was Shi Lan Ke School versus Blazing Academy. Yu Xiaogang gave a pre-match pep talk beforehand, encouraging the team members to work together and avenge their past shame. Everyone was stirred up and swore to fight with their backs against the wall. The Blazing Academy team members still used their previous tactics. They released their fire Martial Souls, completely surrounding the Shi Lan Ke School team members.
Tang San jumped out of the big fire and used Blue Silver Plant to tightly bind the Blazing Academy members. Xiao Wu, Dai Mubai, and Ou Si Ke worked together, defeating the opponents with one blow in a flash. The Blazing Academy team members proactively admitted defeat. After the match ended, Huo Wu gave her Martial Soul essence to Tang San and also revealed that Thunderbolt Academy and Shenfeng School from Star Luo Kingdom had both disappeared after being eliminated.
Huo Wu knew her team would soon disappear too. She said if Tang San saw her Martial Soul disappear, it meant she was dead. She hoped Tang San would help rescue her team. Huo Wu suspected Martial Soul Hall, Tian Dou, and Star Luo Kingdoms, but lacked concrete evidence. Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Dai Mubai went separately to search for the eliminated school teams. They found that everyone was gone, and even Huo Wu, whom they had just met, was nowhere to be seen. Tang San suspected Ju Douluo was responsible.
Episode 38 Recap
Tang San and Dai Mubai both suspected that the collective disappearance of the eliminated school teams was related to Ju Douluo. His purpose was to frame Bi Bi Dong, then legitimately take over control of Martial Soul Hall. Tang San knew they couldn't defeat Ju Douluo, so he decided to use the power of Martial Soul Hall to capture him and ask for the reason.
Tang San, Dai Mubai, and Xiao Wu went to find Qian Renxue and told her the whole story. Qian Renxue did not believe Ju Douluo would do such a thing and wanted to investigate it herself. Yan lost control every time he attacked; only Ju Douluo could restrain him. Xie Yue was greatly displeased with Yan, and the two started fighting after a disagreement. Qian Renxue arrived in time to stop them.
She asked Yan to help distract Ju Douluo but did not tell him the real reason. Qian Renxue brought Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Dai Mubai to Ju Douluo's residence. They saw that the room was filled with colorful chrysanthemums.
Dai Mubai saw the competition's division plan on the table; Cang Hui School was clearly altered to deliberately put the Royal School and Martial Soul Hall in the same group, with the intention of letting Cang Hui School enter the finals, so Ju Douluo could join forces with Cang Hui School to kill Bi Bi Dong. Xiao Wu casually touched a flower petal, and she and Tang San were instantly transported to a locked cell.
Tang San used his Blue Silver Plant to open the lock. Dai Mubai turned around and found that Xiao Wu and Tang San were gone. He quickly followed Qian Renxue to find Bi Bi Dong and told her everything about their suspicion of Ju Douluo. Bi Bi Dong did not believe Ju Douluo would betray her and forcibly sent Dai Mubai away. Qian Renxue was very annoyed, complaining that Bi Bi Dong never trusted her.
She had successfully controlled Xue Qinghe and imprisoned Prince Xue Xing. After the competition ended, she could take control of the entire Tian Dou City under the identity of Xue Qinghe. Bi Bi Dong thought she was delusional. Qian Renxue suppressed the anger in her heart and advised Bi Bi Dong to talk to Ju Douluo. Bi Bi Dong forbade her from interfering in this matter, telling her only to help the Martial Soul Hall team win the championship.
Qian Renxue did not want to be a pawn in her hands anymore, even having to hide their mother-daughter relationship. Bi Bi Dong insisted she was only Qian Renxue's teacher. Qian Renxue stormed off in a huff. Tang San opened the cell door and saw the bones of many Soul Beasts in other cells. Xiao Wu guarded the piles of white bones, heartbroken.
She had thought that Soul Beasts transforming into human form could coexist peacefully with humans, but the result was still a brutal massacre. Originally, when a Soul Master absorbed a Soul Ring, the Soul Beast's body would disappear, but now seeing so many white bones, Xiao Wu guessed that someone had killed the Soul Beasts but did not absorb their Soul Rings, instead sealing the power back into the Soul Beast's body.
Tang San suddenly realized the situation was bad; Ju Douluo was slaughtering Soul Beasts to frame Bi Bi Dong, which is why the Azure Ox Python in the Star Dou Forest was willing to cooperate with Ju Douluo to target Martial Soul Hall. Tang San worried that Ju Douluo would return and run into them, wanting to take Xiao Wu and leave as quickly as possible. Qian Renxue and Dai Mubai met Ju Douluo head-on and quickly hid.
They were worried that Tang San and Xiao Wu would be caught, so Dai Mubai planned to split up with Qian Renxue. Dai Mubai stopped Ju Douluo, pretending to discuss apprenticeship matters with him. Qian Renxue returned to Ju Douluo's residence to continue searching for Tang San and the others. Xiao Wu touched a chrysanthemum petal at the door and instantly returned to Ju Douluo's room, but Tang San had not returned.
She touched that chrysanthemum petal again and returned once more to the cell where the Soul Bones were hidden. The two realized that Xiao Wu could travel through the spatial interlayer via the chrysanthemum petals, so Xiao Wu pulled Tang San and touched the chrysanthemum petal again, returning once more. Qian Renxue learned about the cell where the Soul Bones were hidden and went to check it with them.
Dai Mubai deliberately led Ju Douluo to the Shi Lan Ke School's residence and persuaded Ju Douluo to leave Martial Soul Hall, promising to become his disciple if he did. Ju Douluo resolutely refused. To buy time for Tang San and the others, Dai Mubai made various excuses to delay. Ju Douluo sensed something was wrong and instantly disappeared. Ju Douluo returned to his residence, then went to that cell to search thoroughly.
Qian Renxue knew that Bi Bi Dong trusted Ju Douluo greatly and decided to deal with Ju Douluo herself. Tang San discussed with Qian Renxue, wanting to make a move on Ju Douluo on his way back to Martial Soul Hall.
Dai Mubai rushed to find Tang San to discuss, wanting to seek help from Du Gubo and Ning Fengzhi, keeping it a secret from Ou Si Ke, Ma Hongjun, and others, so that even if something happened in the future, the Shi Lan Ke School could be cleared of responsibility. Tang San went to find Du Gubo overnight. Du Gubo learned that Du Guyan had also disappeared with the team members and agreed to help him deal with Ju Douluo.
Yu Xiaogang convened a meeting with the students early in the morning, analyzing the strengths and tactics of the other teams one by one. The students were full of confidence. Tang San unintentionally saw Shi Nian pass by the entrance and quickly followed him. Shi Nian agreed to take Tang San to see Tang Hao, but only if Tang San let Shi Lan Ke School lose to Cang Hui School, allowing Cang Hui School to win the championship.
He was willing to give each student of Shi Lan Ke School a Soul Bone. But Tang San was unwilling to fight a losing match for Soul Bones, believing it was an insult to the competition and the hard-training students. Shi Nian asked him to meet the person he was supposed to meet first before making a decision.
Episode 39 Recap
Tang San went to meet Hao Tian Douluo with an excited heart. Outside, it was raining heavily. That person stood with his back to him, holding an umbrella. The moment that back turned around, Tang San's heart tensed up beyond measure. He repeatedly confirmed that the man in front of him was his father, Tang Hao. Tang San was surprised and delighted, and couldn't wait to express the confusion in his heart.
Tang Hao confessed freely to what he had done. He promised that after killing Bi Bi Dong, he would compensate Ma Hongjun and others for their sacrifices. Tang San felt that the person in front of him was both cold and unfamiliar. Tang Hao revealed his plan to Tang San without any concealment. As long as Shi Lan Ke School lost to Cang Hui School, Cang Hui School would smoothly win the championship.
Bi Bi Dong would present the award to the champion. Tang Hao had previously trained a Soul Master with a Cang Bai Kong Jian Bian Yi Martial Soul. He could only attack once in his life, causing the opponent to lose control of their Martial Soul, and then this Soul Master would die of old age.
Tang Hao first had Xu Wu Zhi Mao and Gui Lai Jing block Bi Bi Dong, and then had the space Soul Master attack Bi Bi Dong to control her. The Titled Douluo ambushing beforehand would use Gui Lai Jing as cover to go on stage and fight Bi Bi Dong. The arrowhead hidden in the Soul Bone could then kill Bi Bi Dong.
Tang San did not want to see so many people sacrifice themselves for this and bitterly pleaded with Tang Hao to stop. Tang Hao had meticulously planned for so many years and did not want to give up now. Just then, Dai Mubai brought the students of Shi Lan Ke School to find Tang San. They and Tang Hao started fighting fiercely. Tang San desperately tried to stop them, worried that the students would get injured.
Tang Hao attacked them without question. Tang San took out a wind chime to persuade Tang Hao. He raised his hand and threw the wind chime aside, and even threatened Xiao Wu's life to force Tang San to agree to withdraw from the competition. Tang San suddenly realized something was wrong. The man in front of him was not his father at all, but Shi Nian.
And the injured students were also fake, because the wind chime was a symbol of home for him and his father; his father would not casually throw it away. Shi Nian had no choice but to reveal his true form, admitting that he wanted to control Tang San. Unexpectedly, Tang San revealed that his father was Hao Tian Douluo. He decided to go along with the plan and try to make Tang San give up the competition.
Tang San resolutely refused. He guessed that the mastermind behind Cang Hui School was Ju Douluo. Shi Nian unleashed his power to continue controlling Tang San. Tang San summoned his Blue Silver Plant and also awakened the power his mother had hidden within him, completely defeating Shi Nian. Shi Nian instantly collapsed to the ground, like a walking corpse. The students of Cang Hui School lost Shi Nian's control and gradually woke up.
Ye Zhiqiu thanked Tang San for his strong assistance and wanted to take the students away from Martial Soul City, and also take Shi Nian with them. Tang San went to find Du Gubo, Ning Fengzhi, and Chen Xin to discuss a countermeasure against Ju Douluo. They ambushed him on the road he had to take back to Martial Soul Hall. Ju Douluo quickly discovered them. They forced Ju Douluo to confess all his crimes.
Ju Douluo didn't explain and started fighting them fiercely. Qian Renxue came to find Tang San to get back the Martial Soul Token and scolded Tang San severely. Tang San lied, saying he was investigating the relationship between Yu Xiaogang and Bi Bi Dong, but ended up investigating other things. However, because he used Qian Renxue's token, the record showed it was Qian Renxue. Tang San suddenly realized the situation was bad.
Ju Douluo would not have used his own token to check the documents. Tang San suspected that someone had used Ju Douluo's token to check the truth of the pursuit back then and had taken those few pages of documents. Tang San asked Qian Renxue about the close relationship between Ju Douluo and Gui Douluo. He concluded that Gui Douluo had stolen Ju Douluo's token to do these things, wanting to frame Ju Douluo.
Tang San quickly rushed to stop Du Gubo and Ning Fengzhi. Tang San and Qian Renxue quickly arrived at the agreed location and loudly stopped the fight between Ju Douluo and Du Gubo. Bi Bi Dong arrived in time, knocked out Du Gubo, Chen Xin, and Ning Fengzhi, and took them away. Tang San told Bi Bi Dong his suspicions truthfully.
Unexpectedly, she had already known all this, and she also knew that Cang Hui School had withdrawn from the competition. Bi Bi Dong promised to release Du Gubo and the others after the competition ended, to prevent them from interfering with the competition. Everything would be discussed after the competition concluded. Bi Bi Dong knew who was behind trying to harm her and also knew that the participating elites were safe. She promised to release them after the competition.
Bi Bi Dong also revealed one thing: Ju Douluo was researching variant Martial Souls in a secret space. Besides the two of them, only Soul Beasts could enter easily, which Xiao Wu could do. Bi Bi Dong temporarily did not expose Xiao Wu's identity as a Soul Beast, wanting to wait until after the finals. Ju Douluo once again tried to persuade Dai Mubai to be his student, but Dai Mubai flatly refused. The final battle was imminent.
Yu Xiaogang and Lan De gave a pre-battle mobilization talk to the students. After this battle, they would all graduate. Ning Rongrong was reluctant to leave. Lan De said goodbye to each student individually, placing great hopes on them, and wanting to know their future aspirations. Dai Mubai wanted to go back and revitalize the Xing Luo Kingdom. Zhu Zhuqing wanted to go with him.
Ou Si Ke would continue to stay at Shi Lan Ke School to recruit students, and then go to the Qibao Liuli Sect to find Ning Rongrong. Tang San wanted to continue searching for his father. Xiao Wu was willing to follow him for a lifetime. Ma Hongjun wanted to explore Douluo Continent.
Episode 40 (Ending) Recap
Today is the day of the finals. Bi Bi Dong personally came to supervise the battle. The seven monsters of Shi Lan Ke School swore an oath together. They were united in purpose, determined to win. The Martial Soul Hall team was led by captain Xie Yue, with Yan and Qian Renxue as main members, and the other four were temporarily put together. When the competition began, the seven monsters of Shi Lan Ke activated their Martial Souls together.
Xie Yue sent out four reserve members to meet them. Tang San and the others effortlessly knocked those four people to the ground. Xie Yue remained unmoved, kicking the four people aside, declaring that he would defeat Tang San and the other five first, and then deal with Ou Si Ke and Ning Rongrong, the two support type Soul Masters. At Tang San's command, the seven monsters of Shi Lan Ke went into battle together.
Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing respectively fought against Yan and Qian Renxue. The four engaged in fierce combat. Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing closely cooperated, battling their opponents. Xie Yue threw his weapon, the Yue Ren, to attack Tang San. Tang San moved up and down, skillfully dodging the incredibly sharp Yue Ren. Xie Yue revealed his five Soul Ring strength, which surprised Tang San, but he was not afraid and fought against Xie Yue.
Xie Yue pressed Tang San step by step, with deadly moves. The Yue Ren flew up and down around Tang San. Tang San's neck was cut when he was slightly careless. Ning Rongrong and Ou Si Ke stepped forward to cover Tang San. They used all their strength to fight against Xie Yue. Ma Hongjun summoned his Martial Soul to cooperate with them against Xie Yue. Xie Yue quickly retracted the Yue Ren.
Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing used their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, driving the arrogant Yan off the stage. Yan was unwilling, but Ju Douluo announced that he was defeated and out. Liu Erlong was overjoyed and couldn't help but tightly hug Yu Xiaogang's arm. Bi Bi Dong saw everything. Next, it was Qian Renxue and Xie Yue against the seven monsters of Shi Lan Ke School. Xie Yue locked onto Tang San as his target.
Tang San was knocked to the ground. The others fought against Qian Renxue together. Qian Renxue was completely surrounded. Qian Renxue first dealt with Ma Hongjun and Zhu Zhuqing, then was held back by Xiao Wu. Xie Yue threw the Yue Ren to relieve her. Seeing that the Yue Ren was about to slash Xiao Wu, Tang San loudly reminded her to teleport. Xiao Wu instantly moved and dodged the danger. Qian Renxue didn't appreciate Xie Yue's gesture at all.
She voluntarily stepped off the stage and admitted defeat. Xie Yue didn't care at all, claiming that his Martial Soul Hall team only had him, and Qian Renxue and Yan were just making up the numbers. Xie Yue used his most powerful three Soul Rings on the Yue Ren. The Yue Ren circled above the heads of the Shi Lan Ke School team members. Tang San, Xiao Wu, Dai Mubai, and Zhu Zhuqing desperately dodged.
Tang San ordered Ou Si Ke and Ning Rongrong to leave the arena to avoid being cut, so they had to step down. Xie Yue summoned the Yue Ren and slashed towards Dai Mubai. Tang San had to use his spider legs to protect Dai Mubai. As a result, the spider legs were cut off one by one by the Yue Ren. Tang San summoned his Hao Tian Hammer and smashed towards Xie Yue.
Xie Yue revealed his three Soul Ring Yue Ren to counter. Xiao Wu took advantage of his unpreparedness and kicked Xie Yue hard in the face. He was caught off guard and was kicked off the stage. Ju Douluo announced that Shi Lan Ke School had won. The seven monsters of Shi Lan Ke held hands and went onto the stage together to receive their award. Xie Yue left dejectedly.
Bi Bi Dong personally went down to present the award to the champion. She brought out the Soul Bone. Gui Douluo suddenly appeared. He ordered the several Titled Douluo ambushing nearby to assassinate Bi Bi Dong. As a result, they were all controlled. Bi Bi Dong had already made meticulous arrangements, just waiting for Gui Douluo and his companions to take the bait. Gui Douluo, under the banner of justice, wanted revenge for Qian Xunji.
Bi Bi Dong admitted to killing Qian Xunji. She had long known that Gui Douluo had formed Cang Hui School, and had also contacted Soul Beasts from the Star Dou Forest, as well as several Titled Douluo. Bi Bi Dong just wanted to wait for him to gather everyone before catching them all in one swoop. Gui Douluo thought that since his Martial Soul had no physical form, Bi Bi Dong couldn't do anything to him.
Unexpectedly, Bi Bi Dong used her power to prohibit him from using his Martial Soul, and also knocked all the several Titled Douluo to the ground. Gui Douluo immediately went limp. Bi Bi Dong asked Ju Douluo to distribute the Soul Bones to the students of Shi Lan Ke School, except for Xiao Wu. Bi Bi Dong grabbed Xiao Wu.
Tang San and the others swarmed forward, trying to save her, but they were all controlled by Bi Bi Dong and couldn't move. Tang San gritted his teeth in anger and argued with Bi Bi Dong. Bi Bi Dong clearly stated that Xiao Wu was not a Soul Master at all, but a hundred-thousand-year-old little rabbit who had taken human form. Tang San didn't care at all.
He didn't care that Xiao Wu was a Soul Beast, only that Xiao Wu was the person he loved most and was willing to be with her for a lifetime. Bi Bi Dong dealt a fatal blow to Tang San. Tang Hao appeared in time and saved Tang San. Bi Bi Dong was not convinced and revealed her nine Soul Rings to fight against Tang Hao.
Tang Hao summoned his Hao Tian Hammer and knocked Bi Bi Dong to the ground. Xiao Wu took the severely injured and unconscious Tang San away. Tang Hao reminded Xiao Wu to think carefully. Humans and Soul Beasts could not coexist peacefully, and the road for them together would be very difficult. Xiao Wu was already prepared to endure hardship. Tang Hao felt sympathetic. Tang San's mother was also a hundred-thousand-year-old Soul Beast.
He didn't want Tang San to repeat the same mistakes. Currently, their strength was too weak. Only by becoming strong could they be fearless. Xiao Wu understood Tang Hao's intentions and was willing to choose to leave. Xiao Wu recalled scene after scene of her past with Tang San from their acquaintance until now, and her heart was filled with mixed emotions. Xiao Wu gently kissed Tang San. Tang San shed tears of emotion while unconscious. The tear drops fell to the ground, and instantly Blue Silver Plants grew on the ground. Tang San woke up amidst calls for him to wake up.
