Fu Yao entered the Tiandou Competition arena alone. Observing that everyone else was paired up, she stood alone on the balance beam. Unexpectedly, Changsun Wuji appeared and offered his help, surprising Fu Yao. He simply told her to remember his kindness, hinting at a future repayment. Together, they defeated their opponents on the balance beam. Meanwhile, Pei Yuan and Yan Jingchen were also on a balance beam.
While Yan Jingchen showed compassion, Pei Yuan ruthlessly eliminated fellow disciples, even taking lives, claiming she did it for Yan Jingchen's glory and was willing to bear the day's injustices for him. They reached the center, retrieved a Dragon Bone Umbrella, detached the pearl, and became the first pair to complete the challenge, earning admiration. Other teams, including Gao He and Chen Yunzhe, and Wang Yuan and Xu Tiankai, also succeeded.
Fu Yao and Changsun Wuji quickly secured a Dragon Bone Umbrella. Changsun Wuji took the lead in holding it, pulling Fu Yao close by her waist as they descended. He teased her playfully, but the umbrella suddenly shattered, sending them plummeting. Knowing Fu Yao could swim, Changsun Wuji propelled her into the water, while he crashed against the cliff wall.
As Fu Yao fell, she released her stove poker, which transformed and embedded itself at the bottom of the deep pond. She landed in the pond and saw small figures made of water demonstrating combat moves. A water sword materialized in her hand, and she involuntarily mimicked the movements. After the training, the water figures merged into her, causing intense pain and unconsciousness. With the Dragon Candle rapidly burning down, Fu Yao hadn't returned.
The elders discussed the ancestral rules, stating that participants who obtained the pearl from the Dragon Bone Umbrella would receive instructions from the Instruction Box of Lu Que, granting them entry into the next round, regardless of the time. Simultaneously, in the Qiongcang realm, anomalies occurred in the Hall of Fantasy, with swirling black mist indicating an awakening power. The Hall Master, Fei Yan, appeared, joyful at the emergence of the five-colored stone girl, signaling the return of Di Feitian.
As the Dragon Candle burned out, Yan Lie declared the second round of the Tiandou Competition over. Suddenly, strange clouds appeared over Mount Xuanyuan, resembling a dragon and snake exhaling mist, stretching for thousands of miles. Yan Lie speculated that a true dragon's presence caused it. Qi Zhen, unaware Changsun Wuji was absent, secretly believed Yan Lie's "true dragon" referred to him.
Afterwards, Yan Lie reprimanded Yan Jingchen for allowing Pei Yuan to carry the pearl out of the arena, emphasizing Yan Jingchen must always prioritize his own interests. Yan Jingchen then asked about Fu Yao, expressing distress upon learning she had fallen off the cliff and wanting to search for her. Yan Lie forbade it, calling Fu Yao a servant and warning against excessive concern. Fu Yao was rescued from the deep pond by Uncle Zhou, who summoned Physician Zong Yue.
When Fu Yao awoke, her external injuries were minor, but she had no memory of the competition, including Changsun Wuji's help. Zong Yue, unable to treat her internal injuries, left the Xuanyou faction. Yan Jingchen, watching from the shadows, left relieved to see her unharmed. That night, Fu Yao had restless sleep, plagued by fragmented dreams of the Tiandou Competition, with Changsun Wuji fighting alongside her.
The next day, Qi Zhen questioned Changsun Wuji about his activities, warning against trivial pursuits after learning he went to catch crickets. Changsun Wuji feigned foolishness and flattered Qi Zhen, alleviating his suspicions. Soon after, Fu Yao arrived to speak with Changsun Wuji. He acted lecherously, prompting Qi Zhen to leave, though he instructed Yun Hen to observe them secretly.
Inside, Fu Yao asked Changsun Wuji if he had partnered with her in the competition, as she dreamed of him despite her memory loss. He denied it but teased her about dreaming of him. Their intimate exchange led Yun Hen to believe Changsun Wuji's playboy reputation. In the Ancestral Hall, Yan Lie removed the name plaques of five disciples lost in the competition, declaring their non-existence within Mount Xuanyuan.
Yan Jingchen found it cruel, but Yan Lie emphasized Xuanyuan's legacy was built on survival of the fittest. He placed all his hopes on Yan Jingchen, urging him to leave Mount Xuanyuan with Pei Yuan for Kunjing, leading the sect to a greater future. Yan Lie analyzed the political landscape, noting Qi Zhen's cunning and the new Prince's (Changsun Wuji's) apparent foolishness, suspected as a ruse. He advised Yan Jingchen to discard emotional burdens and proceed cautiously.
Changsun Wuji visited Zong Yue for chess, but his mind was on Fu Yao's condition. Zong Yue suggested a memory-erasing medicine to prevent her from disrupting their plan. Changsun Wuji refused, stating he had his own arrangements. Since being rescued, Fu Yao had been experiencing extreme drowsiness, waking up in different locations, tormented by dreams of forced training. Changsun Wuji became interested in this.
One night, Fu Yao asked Qi to tie her to the bed, but she still woke up in the forest. As it rained, she spontaneously recalled the combat moves from her dreams and began to dance with a long sword. Changsun Wuji witnessed this and intervened as she approached qi deviation, transferring true qi to save her.
Concurrently, the elders of the Xuanyuan Sect discovered that one of the twelve pearls was missing, and the Instruction Box of Lu Que indicated the absent pearl was within the Xuanyou faction.
