The morning after the zombie attack, Soran returns to college. Houhou tells him that she’ll be going to the same college he is, and she asks him to show her the power he used to fight the zombies. Soran jokes around, but Houhou takes out her knife and attacks him. Soran refuses to fight back, remembering his grandfather’s words. The time to use the power that his father, Yotoku, made him practice when he was young... Then, something envelopes Soran’s body. As the two of them fight, Ro Ryou, who physically looks like a young boy, and the zombie who defiled the grave are gathered in an abandoned building somewhere. At their feet is Shakurin’s body, and a beautiful woman named Natsuka appears as well. Now, Soran has no choice but to fight, and Natsuka, Ro Ryou, and the Zombie are beginning to make their move as well. What did Shakurin leave to Soran when he died? And what will Soran do now that he remembers Shakurin’s words?

Not only has he become Houhou’s servant, but now his roommate is calling him suspicious! Just as everything’s going against him, Soran gets a friend request for a social network on his phone. And it’s from a cute girl! Soran gets excited, but Houhou tells him there’s someone she wants him to meet that evening. Soran wants to go on his date, so he ignores his master’s phone call. The girl who appears at the meeting spot is Kenken, who is as cute as her picture, and very kind as well. Meanwhile, Houhou is with Jo San, who she was supposed to introduce to Soran that night. Infuriated, she uses GPS technology to track him, saying that she’ll need to give him a very harsh lesson. What will happen with Soran’s date? Will Houhou find him? What will happen next?

Excited by his first chance at a date, Soran is easily deceived by Kenken and his Kinkou is sealed away. Natsuka, Ro Ryou, and Kenken capture him. Houhou and Josan come to save him. A battle begins as the helpless Soran is left tied up in the corner. As more and more outsiders and zombies join the fight, Soran is saved by a new power user, Saru. The place becomes a war zone as all the outsiders use their powers. The capture of Soran brings the two outsider organizations into open conflict. Who will survive? And what will happen to Soran?

In the prison on the bottom floor is Kenken, who was betrayed by Zensei and captured by Express Delivery. Jo San tries to get information about Zensei from her, but she refuses to talk. Suddenly, Jo Yon, his older brother, appears, and when she won’t answer his questions he tries to use force. Soran tries to stop him, and it feels like a battle could break out in the prison at any second. Soran wants Jo San to go easy on Kenken, and Jo San is about to agree, when Jo Yon interrupts and refuses. At last, Kenken talks. Why did they steal Chou Shakurin’s body? What does Zensei want? Why did Kenken try to join Zensei? The truth is revealed.

Soran is kidnapped, and met by Chou Reigyoku. Reigyoku uses kinkou, the techniques that Soran was taught by his father when he was little. His kinkou is more powerful than Soran’s, so Soran has no way to fight back. At the same time, Houhou goes to save him, but Fuu Saen blocks her path. As the two of them fight, they can feel Reigyoku’s ki off in the distance. They agree to a temporary truce and go towards Soran and Reigyoku. Soran is about to give up in the face of Reigyoku’s overwhelming might. Houhou arrives and says, “Show him your power!” His grandfather, Shakurin, had taught him a power even stronger than kinkou. Soran’s kinkou begins to change color. What power does he have?

Soran has become a Tenshi candidate, and now he lives in a villa with Houhou. When she sees how nervous he becomes when he’s alone with a girl, Houhou decides to make a man out of Soran. Soran is angered by her selfish decision, and says he’s not going to listen to her anymore. He leaves the house, and Houhou is left standing there alone. Fuu Saen of the Tengekai is waiting for him. Soran is taken to the Tengekai, which is actually a huge corporation called the Tenge Group. He is met by Fuu Saen’s father, Fuu Chonhao, who is the leader of the Tengekai.

Houhou goes to the Tengekai to take back Soran. She defeats one outsider after another, but then she is stopped by Ja Jongu. He is on a different level than the other foes, and she can’t even touch him. Meanwhile, Soran is with Saen, who has been told by her father to date him. The seal doesn’t respond to Saen! Saen is serious about dating him so Soran runs away. Saen says if he’s serious about running, she’ll stop him with everything she has. She uses her teleportation powers to attack him and he has no way to fight back. Both he and Houhou are losing the fight. Two battle take place inside the Tengekai Building. What will happen to Soran and Houhou?

Houhou has no way to stop Ja Jongu’s attacks, and decides that she can’t win the way she’s fighting. She takes off her heels and uses her full power. Meanwhile, Soran negotiates with Saen so that if he can defeat her teleportation attacks she’ll let him go. She agrees, and launches her next attack. But her fist is stopped! What new power has Soran come up with?

Houhou defeats Ja Jongu, and Soran defeats Fuu Saen, but a sneak attack from Jongu pierces Houhou’s heart and she collapses. Angry at his dirty trick, The president of the Tengekai defeats Ja Jongu, and the outsiders of the Tengekai try to treat her wounds. Jo San and Jo Yon arrive and tell the Tengekai that they will treat her instead. Do the two of them know a way to save her before Ro Ryou makes contact with Soran, saying he’s come to show him how his grandfather, Shakurin, died. What does he show Soran? Then, Jo San and Jo Yon's father comes out of his coma and says he’s going to tell them about the past. What does he tell them about Houhou’s past? What about his relationship with Shakurin? The mysteries of the past are revealed.

Jo San and Jo Yon’s father, Jo Shou, tells them about Houhou’s past. When Jo Shou was a child, his father and mother saved Houhou when she was being attacked by men in the mountains of the Chinese countryside. At the time she was very quiet, had no memories, and only remembered her name. Jo Shou started to live with her. Houhou trained very hard to control her ki, and Jo Shou would spend time training with her and farming with her. One day, the village was attacked by bandits. The bandits set their eyes on Houhou. Jo Shou’s father begged them to let her go, but they attacked with their sharp blade. What happened to his father? What happened to Houhou?

Jo Shou’s father is killed, and his mother begs Houhou to take revenge. Houhou kills the bandits without emotion. It is a terrifying sight. She saved the village, but the villagers treat her like monsters and drive her away. She separates from Jo Shou and is left alone deep within the mountains. Several years later she lives a lonely life, and decides to go find her family. Jo Shou finds a picture of Houhou. It’s been decades since he last saw her, but she hasn’t changed at all. What happens to her when she arrives in town? What does Jo Shou do? What will Soran do now that he is a part of the outsider world, and knows the truth? His destiny continues from the past. But what will his future be?

The Raten Taishou is beginning soon, and the various competitors are making their way to the tournament. To sweeten the pot, Rikukin announces that he will give his Tsuutenroku technique to the winner of the Raten Taishou.

Soran and friends arrive at Ryuukozan where the Raten Taishou is being held. They make their way through the mountains and across difficult terrain to finally arrive at the tournament, where they get their first taste of the combat abilities of the other competitors.

Soran's first match of the Raten Taishou begins. As Soran is known for being heir to the great and powerful kitaigen style, his opponents decide to work together against him. Meanwhile, Shokatsu Sei, master of the ancient kimon tonkou style, breezes through his first match with overwhelming strength.

The first round of the Raten Taishou has concluded, and 32 competitors remain. That night, Soran is shocked when he learns from Chou Reigyoku's apprentices why the Tenshi's disciple respected by all seems to hate him so much. Meanwhile, Fuu Houhou's opponent Ou Niken notices something different about her...

Soran's opponent fails to turn up in time for his match, earning him a reputation as a cheater. Elder Rikukin and his group of trusted young outsiders realize Koketsu is being manipulated by the evil organization Zensei. Meanwhile, Soran receives a summons from Elders Ou Ai and Ro Ji, who demand he hand over his Kitaigen style

Fire user Kouhin is irritated that his opponent Shokatsu Sei will not fight at full strength. Shinki user Shoushou struggles against Zenshin style user Koumei. Meanwhile, Chou Soran learns from Rikukin the real reason he gathered outsiders at the Raten Taishou

When Soran is shocked to learn from Elder Shinchuu that his grandfather Chou Kaigi was a member of Zensei, the Tenshi and Rikukin explain what happened to him. On their way back, Soran is invited to a party by Rikukin's granddaughter Riku Rinron

Soran has opened up to the other young outsiders, but his next opponent uses Toumon, the style that killed his grandfather. As the tricks he's been using will be ineffective against this opponent, Soran demonstrates the true power he's kept hidden inside himself. Meanwhile, Houhou struggles against Shoushou. While watching her match, the Tenshi and Rikukin begin to realize there's something about her that makes her different from ordinary outsiders.

While struggling against Shoushou, Houhou recalls Niken's words and begins her counterattack. Ouya and Shokatsu Sei's match is next. Shokatsu Sei has realized Ouya is a fangshi and Qimen Dunjia user like himself. During their match, Ouya encourages Shokatsu Sei to stop fighting and admit defeat, but...

Determined to know the truth, Shokatsu Sei uses his Qimen Kenzou Shinpou in an attempt to discover the secret behind Ouya's mysterious and powerful Qimen Dunjia. His is one of eight secret arts: Fuukou Qimen. Later, Fuu Saen faces off against Ja Seiryan. The match quickly turns hostile when an impatient Saen destroys Ja Seiryan's phone, interrupting his phone call.

The match between Fuu Shinton and Tou Yuufuku is a showdown of summoners. Meanwhile, Ouya is nearly buried by Houhou at Soran's request, and arrives at the arena just before his match is declared forfeit. However, Ouya makes a surprising suggestion to Soran.

Soran decides to continue seeking the truth. Ouya respects his choice and forfeits the match, thus ending the battle between them. Next is Fuu Saen and Houhou's match. Fuu Saen forfeits, and Houhou advances to the semi-finals. Finally, in the match between Fuu Shinton and Elder Ou Ai's great-grandson Ou Hei, both combatants use Kourei Kenshou. Only members of the Fuu family should know how to use the secret art of Kourei Kenshou, so how is it that Ou Hei is able to use it...?

Ou Hei attempts to use his Shokurei ability to steal Fuu Shinton's treasured spirit Ou Shichuu from him. Shinton makes the difficult decision to let Ou Shichuu's spirit pass on and loses to Ou Hei. Chou Soran, Fuu Houhou, Chou Reigyoku, and Ou Hei advance to the finals, and the tournament nears its end.

The final round of the Raten Taishou pits Chou Soran against Chou Reigyoku. Losers Shokatsu Sei and Ouya begin leaving Ryuukosan and heading now. On the day of the finals, Reigyoku receives encouragement from his master the Tenshi and his fellow disciples. Meanwhile, Fuu Houhou tells Soran he hopes he wins the Raten Taishou. In order to learn the truth he and Houhou carry, Soran heads into the final match against Reigyoku.

The rollercaster final between Chou Soran and Chou Reigyoku continues, which has become a contest between Soran's positive power Yougorai and Reigyoku's negative power Ingorai. However, when Reigyoku uses Suizourai, Ingorai's true form, Soran struggles. Enveloped by Reigyoku's Suizourai, Soran recalls the lesson he learned from his grandfather Chou Shakurin as a child.

Chou Soran appears to have defeated Chou Reigyoku when he uses his ace in the hole. However, Reigyoku gets back up, and Chou Soran prepares himself for defeat. Then Reigoyku's body begins acting strangely... Meanwhile, at Rikukin's orders, Tsuu Kinka and Riku Rinron guard Ryuukosan against an attack from Zensei. However, there's no sign of the organization.

Having won the Raten Taishou, Chou Soran attempts to learn the Way of the Tenshi from the Tenshi. Meanwhile, Zensei finally appears on Ryuukosan and attacks the Tenshifu. The Tenshifu's monks struggle against Zensei's overwhelming numbers. Chou Reigyoku is surrounded by Zensei leader En Tou and his underlings. That's when Rikukin and the feiends he fought during the Raten Taishou arrive.

Rikukin takes over for Reigyoku in his fight against Zensei leader En Tou, forcing him to retreat. However, Ryuukosan is swarming with Zensei thugs, and the battle isn't going well for the Tenshi.

Ryuukosan is danger, and the Tenshi finally makes his move. Meanwhile, the tables are turned on Rikukin and Chou Reigyoku when Zensei's Four Sorcerers appear. The cornered Rikukin amplifies his rage to its limit and begins running out of control. All-out battle breaks out between the forces of Ryuukosan and Zensei!

The Tenshi prepares to sacrifice himself in order to return the rampaging Rikukin to his senses. Meanwhile, while searching for Houhou, Soran spots Riku Rinron and Tsuu Kinka, whose lives are in danger. Will he save the girls who are surrounded by a large group of Zensei members? But he must find Houhou as soon as possible! What will Soran do...?

While saving Riku Rinron and Tsuu Kinka, Soran kills a person for the first time in his life, reminding him of the value of human life. Meanwhile, Zensei members Baron and Ryuusei stand in Houhou's way as she searches for Soran. What is their purpose...?

The battle between the Tenshifu and Zensei is over. While the Tenshifu was able to drive back their enemies, both sides suffered heavy casualties. However, their troubles are far from over.

The Tenshi's servant Hane is actually Kyoukei, acting Master of Zensei, who believes Den Shinchuu possesses an important secret concerning the Koushin War. He reveals that he hid his identity to get closer to Den Shinchuu and planned this attack so he could acquire that secret. However, when Den Shinchuu refuses to talk, Kyoukei summons Meikonjutsu user Ro Ryou and tries to steal Den Shinchuu's memories.

Den Shinchuu's death leaves Chou Soran and the members of the Tenshifu overcome by sadness. As the sun rises, news of Zensei's attack on the Tenshifu spreads throughout outsider society in the blink of an eye. Meanwhile, Ouya has been expelled from the Butou style and is heading to his home of Beijing alone, followed by mysterious figures. Finally, dark clouds appear to be gathering over Butousan, home of the Butou style.
