The chapter opens with Gu yue's entrance into the spirit ascension platform. She has just completed the second stage of the test and is about to enter the final stage when she is interrupted by the entrance of the third and final stage. Guyue, however, has not yet entered the third stage. The chapter then turns to the history of the "tang sect," which has existed on the Douluo continent for thousands of years. According to legend, the sect's founder, the sea god , wielded the trident of the god of the sea and ascended to the godhood. After the sect regained its power, they moved to the other two continents and were never heard from again. The federal government is also aware of this fact. Gu-yue is the only person who defeated her in the test.
