Tang San continued training with his father, Tang Hao. Tang Hao instructed Tang San to go all out and fight him. However, even with his Mysterious Jade Hand, Tang San was unable to block several of Tang Hao's hidden weapons. Realizing the vast power gap between himself and his father, Tang San confidently declared that he wouldn’t remain weak forever. Tang Hao noticed the unique techniques Tang San was using and asked if they were taught by Yu Xiaogang.

In response, Tang San showed his Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, explaining that he had accidentally found the book and discovered it to be a secret treasure of the Tang Sect. The book contained detailed instructions on crafting hidden weapons. Tang Hao acknowledged that the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record had indeed taught Tang San many things. Feeling regretful as a father, he admitted that he had taught Tang San far too little.

Tang Hao reminded Tang San that since he had inherited the teachings of the Tang Sect, he should consider himself a disciple of the Tang Sect and strive to carry forward its legacy. Tang San assured his father that he cherished this opportunity and that once he found rare metals, he would forge all the powerful hidden weapons described in the book.

Eager to improve his strength and reunite with Xiao Wu, Tang San decided to absorb the Spirit Condensing Wisdom Skull, which he had won in a competition. He believed that absorbing the skull would strengthen his body, enabling him to endure more intense training. He asked Tang Hao for assistance in the process.

Tang Hao warned him that absorbing a high-intelligence skull over 50,000 years old would indeed enhance his spiritual power but would also place immense physical and mental strain on him. Given Tang San’s current condition, Tang Hao believed it would be suicidal to attempt absorption. He advised Tang San to rest and recover fully before trying, promising to assist him as a protector when the time came.

Meanwhile, Da Ming and Er Ming grew concerned about Xiao Wu personally collecting Purple Crystal Soft Jade, as she was now just an ordinary human Soul Master. If she were discovered by Spirit Hall, it could place her in grave danger. To protect her, the two decided to handle the collection themselves, leaving Xiao Wu to focus solely on her cultivation. When Xiao Wu learned about their plan, she became furious, insisting that cultivation required her own efforts.

She argued that relying on others would leave her helpless in future battles against enemies. Xiao Wu firmly demanded that they stop interfering with her training. She took the Purple Crystal Soft Jade collected by Er Ming and resumed her cultivation without their involvement. Spirit Hall agents lingered around Shrek Academy, questioning students about Xiao Wu’s whereabouts. The teachers at the academy were deeply worried.

To ensure Ma Hongjun left the academy safely, Liu Erlong intentionally injured him during a demonstration duel. Yu Xiaogang and the headmaster explained to Ma Hongjun that cultivation required various trials and experiences. Understanding their reasoning, Ma Hongjun decided to leave the academy to explore the outside world. After his departure, Liu Erlong revealed that sending the children away was meant to remove distractions, allowing the teachers to confront Spirit Hall directly.

When they arrived to face Spirit Hall, they discovered that the agents had already been defeated by Ma Hongjun. It turned out that he had understood the teachers’ true intentions: they wanted to deceive him into leaving to avoid danger. Wanting to contribute one last time to Shrek Academy, Ma Hongjun had secretly taken action against Spirit Hall. In the end, everyone bid a heartfelt farewell to Ma Hongjun as he left to begin his journey.

Yu Xiaogang received an invitation from Emperor Xue Yue to visit the Heaven Dou Palace. Recently, numerous Soul Masters had gone missing, and the emperor suspected something unusual. He had tasked Crown Prince Xue Qinghe with investigating the matter. The emperor also offered Yu Xiaogang the position of Chief Royal Soul Master, expressing admiration for his ability to train the Shrek Seven Devils, who had earned widespread acclaim.

The crown prince praised the brilliance of each member, especially Tang San, who had left a lasting impression. Impressed by Yu Xiaogang’s educational philosophy, Emperor Xue Yue hoped he could cultivate more talent for Heaven Dou. Yu Xiaogang accepted the invitation. Tang San was eager to absorb the spirit bone, but his impatience concerned Tang Hao. To test Tang San’s resolve, Tang Hao allowed him to attempt it under his supervision.

As Tang San began the absorption process, he fell into a hallucination. In the illusion, Xiao Wu appeared and told him that she missed him so much that she came to find him. She begged him to stay with her, away from the outside world. When Tang San insisted on returning to Shrek Academy, "Xiao Wu" objected, saying they could live together peacefully without involving anyone else.

Recognizing that this was not the real Xiao Wu, Tang San broke through the illusion and successfully absorbed the spirit bone. Tang Hao, pleased with his progress, told Tang San that if he could endure ten of his father’s strikes within five years, he would be allowed to reunite with Xiao Wu. Tang San trained relentlessly and, within three years, managed to withstand ten of Tang Hao’s strikes. Overjoyed, he rushed to find Xiao Wu.

However, upon finding her, Tang San noticed something strange. Xiao Wu insisted she was safe, yet she no longer wore the Blue Silver Grass bracelet that symbolized their connection. When Tang San asked about it, she claimed she had lost it. Realizing something was wrong, Tang San uncovered the truth: he was still trapped in an illusion and had yet to break free.
