In this chapter, Cai Ming tells his uncle that he wishes to learn some martial arts from the young general, who is guarding the border between the two countries. Cai Ming asks his uncle why he wants to learn from the general, and his uncle tells him that he has not seen the general's majesty before. He also tells Cai Ming that Cai Ming wants to challenge the general to a fight because Cai Ming saw Cai Ming having an affair with Cai Ming's uncle, General Guizhou, and Cai Ming wanted to get revenge. The uncle tells his nephew that he knows Cai Ming better than Cai Ming, and that he is not jealous of Cai Ming because he knows that the two of them are martial arts masters. He says that he would like to be a general like Cai Ming and serve the emperor and his majesty.
