This chapter opens with the Shreffler talking about how his bloodline has made a huge jump in the past few years. He compares the success of his spiritual refinement to that of his alloy forging. He shows the teacher a silver jade that he has made. The teacher asks if he can take it with him. He also shows him a notebook with tips for spiritual refinement and an exclusive alloy forging recipe. He thanks the teacher for his hard work and says he'll show it to everyone. He adds that he made the teacher's badge using the soul-guidance method. The badge will help the teacher in his future. The student dormitory is full of people who are trying to get into the dormitory, but the teacher is not one of them. He tells them that he wants to lower the condition of their last transaction. He says he originally needed 2000 years worth of earth and heaven, but now he only needs one treasure. He gives the student a piece of iron. He doesn't expect the student to be generous, but he's even more generous now.
