This chapter opens with a discussion of the thunder tribulation, which is the most important event of the year. It is the time when the capsule sect and the thousand machines of the heavenly spirit sect will have to compete with each other in order to win the market share. The capsule sect wants to be the first to win, while the machines want to be last. The verdant capsule sect asks the two of them to check on the progress of the three sects in the town, and to prepare for their meeting. The leader of the green capsule sect tells the young man that he has a mission for his disciple, fengxiong, who is now at the stage of foundation building. The young man tells the leader that he was planning to send the disciple to the meeting to prepare himself for the meeting, but that his cauldron has been ruined during the tribulation. He wants to buy a new one to make up for the loss of his old one.
