In the middle of the fight, Maule asks his uncle to ask the other fighters to move back so that Maule can get some rest. Maule's brother, who is also fighting, asks if Maule is from the sky-wind sword sect, and Maule answers that he is the third-generation disciple of his grandfather, the old crank. He says that he will ruin his grandfather's reputation by fighting Maule today, and that he hopes Maule will leave them alone as they travel to the battlefield
