Is the 72-Hour Visa-Free Transit valid, if the flight from Dalian to Warsaw is via Shanghai?

I am a citizen of Lithuania. Coming to Dalian from Fukuoka (Japan) . Flight Fukuoka-Seoul-Dalian. I will stay in Dalian for less than 72 hours. Flight home (connecting flight) Dalian-Shanghai-Paris-Warsaw (stopover in Shanghai is 2h25min without leaving the transit area). Is the 72-Hour Visa-Free Transit valid?
