Tang San and his group arrived at Shrek Academy and discovered that the academy was being watched. They decided to sneak in to investigate. However, Dugu Bo, seriously injured, appeared and stopped Tang San, pleading with him to rescue the Fourth Prince, Xue Beng. Xue Beng, worried about Emperor Xue Ye’s safety, had ventured into the imperial palace and was captured by Xue Qinghe, who was waiting in ambush.

Xue Qinghe still faced doubts among the ministers regarding Xue Beng’s alleged assassination of Emperor Xue Ye. To secure his position, Xue Qinghe forced Xue Beng to confess his “crime” in front of the ministers. Xue Beng, however, swore to reveal Xue Qinghe’s true identity instead. Xue Qinghe mocked him, saying he was unworthy of competing with him.

He warned that if Xue Beng refused to cooperate, Emperor Xue Ye would continue to live a life worse than death, suffering unbearable torment. Unable to bear his father’s suffering, Xue Beng reluctantly agreed to publicly confess. Xue Qinghe then forced Xue Beng to swallow a poison. The poison inflicted excruciating pain but was not fatal. It could be temporarily alleviated by taking the antidote. If Xue Beng consumed the poison, Xue Qinghe would trust him.

Left with no choice, Xue Beng swallowed the poison. Yang Wudi treated Dugu Bo’s wounds, assuring the group that as long as he rested, he would recover. Seeing Dugu Bo in such a state, Ma Hongjun feared Xue Beng might have already been killed. Dai Mubai speculated that Xue Qinghe wouldn’t kill the prince but would use him to publicly admit to assassinating Emperor Xue Ye, thereby earning the trust and support of the ministers.

If anyone attempted to rescue Xue Beng, they would be labeled as traitors plotting to assassinate the emperor. Xue Qinghe would then appear as the hero who “suppressed the rebellion,” securing his throne with a clean reputation. Despite knowing it was a trap, the group decided they had no choice but to take the risk. Rescuing Xue Beng and Emperor Xue Ye was their only chance to turn the situation around.

Tang San and the others prepared to infiltrate the palace to rescue Xue Beng and Emperor Xue Ye. He instructed Dugu Bo to stay at the academy and recover. Yu Xiaogang advised Tang San to send a signal if they encountered danger, so he could bring reinforcements from the spirit master army. Tang San cautioned that Xue Qinghe had long coveted the Tiger Seal and might collude with Spirit Hall to seize it, urging Yu Xiaogang to remain vigilant.

Ning Rongrong promised to contact her father, Ning Fengzhi, to have members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan protect the academy. Xue Beng finally saw Emperor Xue Ye, unconscious and lying in bed. He forced Imperial Physician Yang to drink a poison he had concocted, threatening him to produce the antidote. However, the physician, unconcerned with his own life, only cared about whether anyone could counteract his poison.

Xue Beng knocked him out and placed both Emperor Xue Ye and the physician into his Shunyi Qiankun Bag. However, since the bag could only hold living beings for an hour, Xue Beng knew he was racing against time. If the bag turned from green to red, the occupants would be in grave danger. As Xue Beng tried to sneak out of the palace, he was intercepted by Xue Qinghe.

Tang San’s group arrived at the palace to find it fully under Xue Qinghe’s control. Xue Qinghe had indeed colluded with Spirit Hall, using their forces to attack the spirit master army. Tang San rescued Xue Beng, who informed him that Emperor Xue Ye was in the Shunyi Qiankun Bag and could only survive for an hour.

Tang San launched a signal flare to call for reinforcements, but Xue Qinghe sneered, saying help would never arrive as Tang San’s allies were already overwhelmed. Tang San confronted Xue Qinghe and discovered that he was not a Soul King but a Soul Sage. His martial soul turned out to be the Angelic Spirit, unique to Spirit Hall. Xue Qinghe revealed his true identity as Qian Renxue, a descendant of the former Supreme Pontiff of Spirit Hall.

Qian Renxue informed Tang San that Spirit Hall had already sent forces to attack Shrek Academy. She claimed his companions were severely injured, and the reinforcements he was waiting for would never arrive. Tang San saw that his companions had exhausted themselves battling the Porcupinefish Titled Douluo and needed to recover their spirit power. To buy time, he suggested collaborating with Qian Renxue. Tang San proposed two conditions for cooperation.

First, Qian Renxue must kill all those who had participated in the attack on Xiao Wu, including the Titled Douluo. Qian Renxue replied that she might consider it, but only if Tang San first achieved the rank of Titled Douluo. For his second condition, Tang San demanded the destruction of Spirit Hall, declaring it his eternal enemy. Dai Mubai and the others regained their spirit power and assured Xue Beng they had a plan.

They would use a fusion technique to summon Dai Mubai’s true martial soul form, which could rival a Titled Douluo. They intended to hold off the Porcupinefish Douluo while Oscar escorted Xue Beng to safety. However, even with their combined efforts, they were ultimately defeated by the Porcupinefish Douluo. In a desperate bid, the group risked their lives to hold him back, giving Oscar and Xue Beng the chance to escape.

Within Qian Renxue’s Angelic Domain, Tang San found himself unable to use his spirit power. To stall for time, he praised Qian Renxue for her patience and perseverance, remarking on how she had endured twenty years in disguise for her grand ambition. Xiao Wu, sensing their companions could no longer hold on, urged Tang San to act. Under the crushing pressure of the Angelic Domain, Tang San was overwhelmed and unable to fight back. At this critical moment, Xiao Wu appeared.
