I Am Nobody Episode 15 Recap
> I Am Nobody Recap
After his match, Wang Ye prepared to leave, having already booked his ticket back. He called someone from Wudang, explaining that his opponent was too strong and he couldn't achieve the final victory without using Qimen Manipulation, which had now been exposed. The person on the other end, likely his master, immediately hung up the phone and forbade him from returning to Wudang, referencing the heavy casualties the sect suffered during the Jiashen Calamity.
As Wang Ye was about to leave, Zhuge Qing approached him with his luggage. Wang Ye kindly offered to help with his suitcase. Before leaving, Zhuge Qing revealed he had overheard Wang Ye's conversation using the Listening Wind Chant. He told Wang Ye that he had already given Zhang Chulan a choice, and Zhang Chulan had made a different one, but now Zhuge Qing was offering Wang Ye a choice he had to make himself.
He noted that Wang Ye coming to Mount Longhu was also his own choice and encouraged him not to be troubled or look gloomy. Wang Ye called him out for using the Listening Wind Chant. Zhuge Qing said he and Zhang Chulan were similar, knowing what shouldn't be done but doing it anyway. He admitted he hated trouble but offered to help Wang Ye if he found himself in difficulty, promising to do anything within his power.
Wang Ye remarked he shouldn't have befriended someone like him, wanting to keep some mystery, but Zhuge Qing said he wanted to be friends. The next match was between Feng Shayan and Feng Baobao. Feng Shayan eagerly anticipated the fight, ready to compete against Feng Baobao, who was casually eating a cucumber.
Feng Baobao went up to Feng Shayan and, realizing Zhang Chulan was her next potential opponent, told Feng Shayan that she was there to remove any threats to Zhang Chulan, and since Feng Shayan no longer posed a threat, her job was done. Feng Baobao then declared she was abandoning the match and started to leave. Feng Shayan was angered by this perceived insult and prepared to strike Feng Baobao, but her father, Chairman Feng, intervened.
He reminded Feng Shayan that he had told her the previous night not to participate due to her injuries and that she was no match for Feng Baobao anyway. He pointed out that Feng Baobao had shown her courtesy by withdrawing and told her to apologize and admit defeat. Feng Shayan asked if she was the "smallest price" he had mentioned.
Her father confirmed it was and reminded her that she was the only one in their Feng family who did not know Detained Spirit Manipulation, but he treated her fairly regardless. As Feng Shayan reluctantly prepared to apologize, Jia Zhengliang rushed into the arena, telling Feng Shayan not to apologize.
He challenged Feng Baobao himself, declaring he was there to fight for Feng Shayan's honor because she wanted to challenge a worthy opponent and was angry at being insulted, asking if that was wrong. Feng Baobao pushed him away. Chairman Feng told Jia Zhengliang to stop, but Jia Zhengliang defied him, saying Chairman Feng was Feng Shayan's father, not his, and couldn't control him.
Feng Shayan yelled at Jia Zhengliang for speaking disrespectfully to her father, but Jia Zhengliang claimed he was helping her. Chairman Feng told both of them to stop talking. Feng Shayan then addressed Feng Baobao, apologizing for her behavior and admitting defeat in the match. Jia Zhengliang again protested her apology, questioning if it was wrong to feel insulted and angry, and told Shayan she was her father's child, not a dog, implying she shouldn't blindly obey.
Chairman Feng ordered Jia Zhengliang to be silent and said he could stay and fight by himself. Feng Shayan then apologized to her father for her actions, saying she had been insensible, and formally admitted defeat. As Feng Shayan left the arena, Feng Baobao apologized to Chairman Feng for his daughter's display. Jia Zhengliang followed Feng Shayan, saying he didn't mean to embarrass her and that her earlier strike had hurt him.
Feng Baobao was officially declared the winner and advanced. In the next match, Feng Xingtong faced Wang Bing. Wang Bing revealed he also possessed a Qi Spirit, showing off Master Kunsheng, who he treated disrespectfully like a pet. Feng Xingtong countered by invoking his own Qi Spirit, Master Liu, and later, Wang Zizhong, a medical savant Qi Spirit. Wang Bing used a technique to consume his Qi Spirit, declaring he would become invincible. Master Liu was in danger.
Despite the rules forbidding intervention, two individuals from the Deng family tried to intervene but were stopped by someone from Celestial Taoist Mansion. Wang Bing explained his family also knew Detained Spirit Manipulation. He then attempted to consume Master Liu as well, calling him a "wonderful tonic." Feng Xingtong, desperate to protect Master Liu, had Wang Zizhong transform into needles to pierce his major meridians, forcefully circulating Innate Qi despite causing severe injury to himself.
Wang Bing pressed his attack on Master Liu. Feng Xingtong used "Detained Spirit: Set Free" to release Master Liu, telling him to escape. Wang Bing was furious at losing Master Liu and demanded compensation, then turned his attention to Wang Zizhong, attempting to consume him too. Feng Xingtong fought to protect Wang Zizhong but reached his limit.
Wang Zizhong, seeing Feng Xingtong's state, expressed his fondness for the boy and sacrificed himself by scattering his primordial spirit using Detained Spirit Manipulation: Break Treasure Clear Wind Order. Wang Bing defeated the injured Feng Xingtong. After the match, Chairman Feng went to see his son Feng Xingtong, who was badly injured. Feng Shayan also arrived and, seeing her brother's condition, angrily prepared to seek revenge. At that moment, Old Master Wang Ai, Wang Bing's great-grandfather, arrived with Wang Bing.
Old Master Wang Ai told Feng Shayan to leave, but Chairman Feng allowed her to stay. Chairman Feng questioned Old Master Wang Ai about how the Wang family knew Detained Spirit Manipulation. Old Master Wang Ai revealed that Chairman Feng's own grandfather, Feng Tianyang, had taught the technique to Wang Ai's father. He explained that during the Jiashen Calamity, Feng Tianyang was captured by the Wang family.
To save his life and his family, Feng Tianyang begged Wang Ai's father for mercy and handed over the complete technique of Detained Spirit Manipulation, also swearing never to pass on the complete technique to his descendants. Furthermore, to repay the kindness of being spared, he revealed the names of other Eight Supremes creators he knew, effectively betraying his comrades.
Old Master Wang Ai stated that the Feng family's current prosperity and safety were due to Feng Tianyang's surrender and the Wang family's subsequent protection. He said the other sect leaders who captured other creators also understood this arrangement and didn't press Feng Tianyang further, as whoever caught a creator claimed their technique. Old Master Wang Ai explained that this history was a high secret in the outsider world, which is why Feng Shayan's generation didn't know it.
He declared that the Feng family's current glory was earned through Feng Tianyang kneeling and betraying his accomplices, and was preserved by the Wang family. Chairman Feng was shocked, realizing he had been accepting the Wang family's kindness unknowingly and had been arrogant in thinking he could be their equal.
He knelt before Old Master Wang Ai, explaining that his kneeling was not out of fear of Old Master Wang Ai, but to thank Wang Ai's father for the great kindness of saving the Feng family lineage. He swore that from that day forward, he, Feng Zhenghao, and The All-Encompassing Guild would follow Old Master Wang Ai's lead and serve him.
Old Master Wang Ai told him to get up, saying he was just reminiscing, but Chairman Feng insisted he was rightfully enlightened by the truth. Old Master Wang Ai then left, suggesting their families should interact more in the future. After he left, Feng Shayan asked her father why he had knelt. Chairman Feng explained it wasn't fear of them, but fear that the turmoil of the Jiashen Calamity repeating.
He said compared to that secret, their current grievances were insignificant, and they had to endure for now. The time came for the semi-final match between Feng Baobao and Zhang Chulan. Feng Baobao immediately declared Zhang Chulan was too powerful and she was no match for him, then dramatically fell to the ground, allowing Zhang Chulan to win. The crowd reacted angrily, shouting that the match was rigged and demanding refunds.
After the match was announced, the crowd rushed towards Zhang Chulan, furious about the fake performance. Feng Baobao quickly got up. Zhang Chulan was surprised by the crowd's reaction, realizing their fake performance was too obvious and exaggerated. Members of Celestial Taoist Mansion arrived, stating that while they would prevent interference during a match, they would not intervene after it was concluded, effectively allowing the crowd to vent their anger on Zhang Chulan.
The next semi-final match was between Zhang Lingyu and Wang Bing. Wang Bing was confident, unleashing his techniques. Zhang Lingyu responded with his Lightning Palm, easily overwhelming Wang Bing's techniques. Wang Bing was shocked and disbelieving, claiming Zhang Lingyu was a fake and no one could defeat him so easily.
He began to rant, blaming Feng Xingtong for not giving him Master Liu, Lu Jin for offering the Infinite Heavenly Talisman as a prize instead of his great-grandpa Wang Ai just taking it directly, and his great-grandpa Wang Ai for making him compete instead of getting the talisman himself.
He declared he was born at the top and everything he wanted, like Master Liu and the Infinite Heavenly Talisman, should be his, expressing anger at the obstacles and calling others "trashes" for opposing him. Zhang Lingyu called Wang Bing shameless, worse than Zhang Chulan, and also incompetent. Zhang Lingyu defeated Wang Bing. Before the final match, Zhang Lingyu had breakfast with his master. His master asked if Lingyu blamed him for holding the contest for Zhang Chulan's sake.
Zhang Lingyu replied that he was indebted to his master and respected his character, virtue, and cultivation, which he aspired to learn from for a lifetime. He said he would never blame his master, even if he didn't understand his decisions. His master was relieved and instructed Zhang Lingyu for the final match: not to consider his master's intentions but to use his full strength and fiercely discipline Zhang Huaiyi's grandson, Zhang Chulan.
Finally, the day of the championship match arrived. Zhang Lingyu, the Celestial Taoist Mansion High Official, faced Zhang Chulan, the inheritor of Qi Apotheosis. As they prepared to compete in the finals of the 100th Outsider Martial Arts Contest, Zhang Lingyu told Zhang Chulan to show him his true power, stating that today, only one of them would walk out of the arena standing.
