In this chapter, we learn that the government is using chenfeng as a third-place finisher in the martial arts competition. This is not a good sign, because it means that the country is using him as a second-tier martial artist. We also learn that xin and zhuge have been sparring with each other for a long time, and xin is the better fighter. We learn that zhuge has spent years polishing these weapons, and that they cost tens of thousands of gems to make.
