Chu Linglong and Xiao Liuzi jointly faced Su Bo and Mo Shaoyan from Dianjing Vally. A two-on-two duel emphasized coordination andtacit understanding. Chu Linglong's skill was no match for her opponents, and she was thrown off the stage. Wu Tong mocked and taunted from the side. Xiao Liuzi, stimulated by the moment, unleashed his potential and defeated his opponents, winning back face for the Shaoyang Sect.

The Xuanyuan Sect was once the head of the five major sects, but now it has fallen to the bottom, feeling resentful. The Demon Realm Hall Master, also the Master of Tianxu Hall, to provoke the relationship between the five major sects, signaled Dilang to give the Kunyin Pill to the Xuanyuan Sect disciples to take, allowing their skills to greatly increase. This way, they could win over the Xuanyuan Sect and obtain information about the spirit key.

Elder Lingshi of the Xuanyuan Sect was angry about his disciples' low skill level and the shame they brought before others. The Xuanyuan Sect had already secretly refined forbidden drugs to increase skill in order to win the competition, but this caused several disciples to die suddenly one after another, and even the sect leader almost suffered from qi deviation. The sect suffered a terrible change.

Dilang put the Kunyin Pill into Elder Lingshi's tea, and his skill indeed greatly increased. Lingshi naturally chose to cooperate with Dilang. Chu Xuanji privately practiced sword moves diligently, but practicing alone, she could never grasp the meaning. Just then, Yu Sifeng appeared and used the method of feeling food to help Chu Xuanji understand the meaning of the sword moves. Chu Xuanji's starting stances indeed improved greatly, and she accidentally tore Yu Sifeng's personal pouch.

Hidden in the pouch was a silver hairpin left by Yu Sifeng's mother. According to Yu Sifeng, he grew up in Lize Palace since childhood and had never met his parents, only having his mother's portrait and this silver hairpin as keepsakes. Yu Sifeng and Chu Xuanji had similar childhoods, which made them even closer. Sifeng promised to help Chu Xuanji find all the fragments to restore her six senses.

The two also agreed to descend the mountain together for training after four years. The Hairpin Tournament continued on the second day. Shi Feng of the Xuanyuan Sect won several matches in a row. However, Shi Feng seemed unable to control the true qi within his body.

Shi Feng worried that he would also die from true qi explosion like the other disciples, but Lingshi confidently asserted that the pill he personally refined was very safe and persuaded Shi Feng away. Dilang appeared before Lingshi from time to time to propose exchange conditions. The Hairpin Tournament continued. Wu Tong faced Xiao Liuzi. During the match, Wu Tong used a curse to secretly injure his opponent. The curse went straight towards Chu Xuanji outside the arena.

Yu Sifeng and Hao Chen were worried about Chu Xuanji and both wanted to help, but Yu Sifeng acted faster and protected Chu Xuanji. However, the Master of Dianjing Vally spoke up to protect Wu Tong, saying that even though the malicious technique Wu Tong used almost injured someone, it ultimately did not violate the rules of the Hairpin Tournament. Chu Lei had no choice but to announce Wu Tong as the winner.

Xiao Liuzi losing the match made Chu Linglong and Chu Xuanji unhappy. They clamored to settle the score with Wu Tong. Yu Sifeng agreed that Wu Tong should suffer a little and came up with a perfect plan to teach Wu Tong a lesson. Yu Sifeng knew that Wu Tong came from a humble background and always wanted to make a name for himself.

After the competition, he had consumed too much skill and urgently needed money to buy pills to replenish his internal power. So, Yu Sifeng used the excuse of searching for a lost spirit snake and used ten luminous pearls as bait to lure Wu Tong into the forest. As expected, Wu Tong fell into the trap set by Yu Sifeng and was hung from a tree.

Wu Tong still refused to beg for mercy and even used hidden weapons to try to harm Chu Linglong. Fortunately, Yu Sifeng took Chu Linglong and dodged, otherwise the consequences would have been unthinkable. The four people successfully punished Wu Tong and were having a happy time. Shi Feng of the Xuanyuan Sect still had insufficient internal power and had no chance of winning in the next match.

Lingshi had no choice but to cooperate with Dilang, revealing exactly which major sects were guarding the four spirit keys in exchange for the Kunyin Pill. The spirit keys were not easy to obtain as they were guarded by the sect-guarding divine artifacts of the major sects. Half of the Hairpin Tournament was over. Chu Linglong and Xiao Liuzi were still bickering noisily, leaving Yu Sifeng and Chu Xuanji somewhat unhappy.

Yu Sifeng's unhappiness was because after the Hairpin Tournament, he would not be able to see Chu Xuanji every day. However, Yu Sifeng promised that no matter how difficult it was in the future, he would still meet with Chu Xuanji. Yu Sifeng was Chu Xuanji's best friend outside of the Shaoyang Sect, so naturally, she would not easily forget him.

Yu Sifeng originally wanted to give Chu Xuanji a treasure that would allow them to contact each other no matter how far apart they were, but he discovered that the silver hairpin left by his mother was missing. It turned out that Sifeng had accidentally lost it when saving Chu Linglong that day without realizing it. The next day, Yu Sifeng and Chu Xuanji went to search for it and encountered Wu Tong's sneak attack again.

However, Wu Tong was not willing to reconcile with Yu Sifeng easily. He took out the silver hairpin and demanded that Yu Sifeng kneel down and beg for mercy. Chu Xuanji could not stand seeing Wu Tong bully Yu Sifeng and spoke up several times to defend him. Chu Xuanji's actions deeply moved Yu Sifeng. The silver hairpin was very important to Yu Sifeng, so Wu Tong naturally would not hand it over easily.

Wu Tong took the opportunity to grab Chu Xuanji as a threat to force Yu Sifeng to kneel. Yu Sifeng pretended to agree to use the opportunity to rescue Chu Xuanji, but he was still unable to retrieve the hairpin. At night, Chu Xuanji and Chu Linglong planned together to steal the silver hairpin. However, Wu Tong entered the men's bathhouse. Chu Linglong was temporarily shy, so only Chu Xuanji went in.

Chu Xuanji searched Wu Tong's clothes everywhere, found the silver hairpin, and fled outside. When Wu Tong chased out, he happened to see Chu Linglong and mistakenly thought it was Chu Linglong who entered the bathhouse to steal the hairpin. The two tangled for a while. Chu Linglong saw Wu Tong, who was half-dressed, and shyly left. Yu Sifeng looked at his mother's portrait and muttered to himself.

The silver hairpin could be retrieved later, but being able to always remember his mother's appearance was more important. Chu Xuanji excitedly held the silver hairpin and handed it to Yu Sifeng. Yu Sifeng was touched and accepted the hairpin. Chu Xuanji had ignored the wound on her foot while getting the hairpin. It was Yu Sifeng who carefully and thoughtfully applied medicine. When he learned how Chu Xuanji retrieved the hairpin, Yu Sifeng became flustered and stammered again.

He said that seeing a boy bathe was a very bad thing for a girl, but Chu Xuanji thought that she had also seen Yu Sifeng bathe and it didn't have much of an effect on her. Yu Sifeng was momentarily shy and could only patiently explain that men and women should not intimately interact, telling Chu Xuanji not to easily let other boys get close to her in the future.

But wasn't Yu Sifeng, who was applying medicine for her, a boy himself? Chu Xuanji's curious question made Yu Sifeng even shyer. Just then, the rest of the people from Lize Palace returned to their rooms. Yu Sifeng, acting resourcefully in a moment of urgency, pulled Chu Xuanji to the same bed for cover and extinguished the light. The others spoke sarcastically about Yu Sifeng, but he paid no mind. However, Ruo Yu seemed to have noticed something.
