Li Ming left with Li Pan Cheng and Xue Na to return to the family's residence in the capital, where a powerful family member was severely injured, creating a vulnerable situation. Despite their departure, Li Ming and Hao Qi parted amicably, maintaining a good relationship between their families. Li Ming publicly announced his defeat to Hao Qi, leading to a cautious silence among inner strength practitioners in the Lan Ying Republic, who were now hesitant to challenge Hao Qi. Hao Qi recognized that those with power coveted martial arts skills, but any failed attempts to harm him would result in lifelong enmity. He anticipated that the upcoming sparring matches would be genuine tests of strength. On the third day after Li Ming's departure, a government official named Linghu Qi visited Hao Qi, discussing the importance of the sparring matches and expressing the government's support for Hao Qi's future endeavors.

The chapter concluded with a light-hearted exchange about sparring, where Hao Qi humorously declared his loss.
