Meanwhile at Mr. White's shop, with Guren and the Knights recapping how they found the Fortress, but can't get anywhere near it. Mr. White suggests they could penetrate the force field if they increased their Tenkai Energies somehow. However, he himself doesn't know how.

The Knights' methods for increasing their Energies: Guren "trains" with Max (& later with Gen), Chooki goes fishing, Ceylan falls asleep at his laptop, and Toxsa, who is incredibly paranoid due to Chooki and Ceylan's Brickification jokes, freaks out upon seeing anything square shaped.

An unseen being calling itself Beast King soon tells them the planet is called Beast World. When Bravenwolf complains that they are on an important mission, the Beast King says he'll allow them to leave after completing a mission for him first. An ape like Corekai soon cuts the ground out from underneath the warriors, causing them to fall into a pit. Suddenly Guren and the knights find themselves in their earth forms, stuck dealing with a reality warping monkey calling itself Orangor. The Knights soon run into Beag, and after completing tasks given to them by Orangor are allowed to return to the surface. Realizing that the Beast King only wants to be entertained, Bravenwolf sets up a Tenkai soccer match between the Knights, assisted by Venetta and Vilius, assisted by the corrupted. Will the knights beat the cheating Vilius, or be stuck on Beast World forever? | ||||||
