Episode 28 recap: Hu Zi confessed his feelings to Zhao Xin Tong.
Xiao Yun Zi noticed that the people inside the Giant Wheel Nation were eating a lot, like a bunch of gluttons. When it was her turn to get food, there was none left. The people from the Giant Wheel Nation complained that their daily meals were vegetarian and didn't give them enough energy to work. This made both teams angry, and they were on the verge of starting a fight.
Qi Xiao Xuan led everyone to search for the bow of the ship. When Wang Yu Qian and Hu Zi returned with Zhao Xin Tong, they saw that the courtyard was in a mess, and the two teams were already fighting. Zhao Xin Tong realized that the two teams couldn't get along at all. They wanted to fight as soon as they saw each other, and there was no way to resolve the situation.
The people from the Giant Wheel Nation instructed Xiao Yun Zi, and although she argued with them, she still followed their commands because this matter involved many people and the Dark Sea. When the ship was built, they told everyone that it could only accommodate twenty-one people, which made Hu Zi skeptical.
Ling Zhi recognized the formation used by the Giant Wheel Nation to build the ship and suspected that the formation had been lost for many years. Unexpectedly, the Giant Wheel Nation still had it. Qi Xiao Xuan told everyone that this formation could accommodate many people, and the people from the Giant Wheel Nation mocked the people from the Thousand Feather Nation. This made Xiao Yun Zi angry, as she still had a discriminatory attitude towards the Giant Wheel Nation.
While everyone was having a meal, Zhao Xin Tong wanted Xiao Yun Zi and the people from the Giant Wheel Nation to compromise and resolve their animosity. She wanted everyone to unite, but both sides refused to cooperate and even scattered the food on the table because of a piece of meat. Zhao Xin Tong discussed with Ling Zhi to find suitable solutions to eliminate the resentment between the two clans and unite them. Zhao Xin Tong believed that they needed mutual trust to fight the enemy on the battlefieldto the death.
Ling Zhi proposed electing a commander-in-chief to lead their forces, hoping that it would earn their respect and obedience. She recommended Zhao Xin Tong for this role, and Zhao Xin Tong willingly accepted the responsibility. However, Wang Yu Qian expressed concerns that there would be many monsters in the Ancient Peaks, and a hundred people would be insufficient to stop them.
Qi Xiao Xuan believed that the chosen hundred individuals must be talented and capable of facing overwhelming odds. She suggested selecting them through competition. Zhao Xin Tong felt confident in accomplishing this task. She informed everyone that the hundred individuals would be selected through a series of rigorous screenings among themselves.
At this moment, everyone began recommending members from their own teams. Zhao Xin Tong expressed her desire for the hundred individuals to consist of elite representatives from each nation. She emphasized that if there were internal conflicts, they would be expelled. The others found her reasoning sensible, and everyone started to show mutual respect and cooperation. Hu Zi was delighted to see how the others responded.
Ling Zhi advised Qi Xiao Xuan not to feel guilty about Yan's condition during their visit to the Peak Valley, and not to let emotions cloud their judgment at crucial moments. Qi Xiao Xuan was urged not to give up on competing with Yan for control of the body. Qi Xiao Xuan believed that it was her fault that things turned out this way, but Ling Zhi thought that Qi Yan Ran also bore some responsibility for the situation and didn't blame herself entirely.
Wu Li Dan also wanted to be involved in this matter. Hu Zi had doubts about Wu Li Dan, but Zhao Xin Tong believed in him. Cheng Ji Nian also wanted to seize this opportunity to save his father and was willing to venture into dangerous territory. Hu Zi found Cheng Ji Nian somewhat untrustworthy, but their companions felt that he might have grown.
Hu Zi wanted to prepare a grand feast for the army, and the people enthusiastically offered the vegetables they had grown to Zhao Xin Tong's group. However, she didn't trust Hu Zi's culinary skills. Wang Yu Qian tried to catch a chicken but ended up causing chaos, and the people from the Giant Wheel Nation came to Wang Yu Qian's aid.
Qi Yan Ran worked as a helper in Zhao Xin Tong's army and wanted to contribute. Before setting off, Zhao Xin Tong encouraged everyone to unite and defend each other, blocking the Dark Sea. Finally, the people from the Giant Wheel Nation and the Thousand Feather Nation put aside their grudges and reconciled. Zhao Xin Tong and Wu Li Dan also gained a better understanding of the past conflicts between their ancestors on this night.
Mo Gu Zi intended to personally avenge Xi Men Miao Miao by killing Yi Mei, and Qi Yan Ran secretly took a token, planning to follow everyone to the Dark Sea. Wang Yu Qian felt excited, but Zhao Xin Tong and the others remained calm, unaware of the dangers that awaited them in the future.
Hu Zi confessed his feelings to Zhao Xin Tong, but she was hesitant to listen and asked him to wait until they returned from the Peak Valley. The group prepared to head to the Dark Sea. However, they encountered a problem on the way as Xiao Yun Zi and the people from the Giant Wheel Nation proposed repairing the vehicle together. While they were fixing the vehicle, the entrance to the Dark Sea began to close, leading to a critical situation.
