The next morning, the master is astonished to find that his disciple is already taking the entrance exam. He exclaims that he has found a "treasure," and that he will have to lecture the young man on the art of sword-fighting. The master laments that his son's lack of aptitude for asking for help has led him to believe that he is incapable of grasping the mysteries of the world. He admits that he can do some things on his own, but that he must rely on others to solve the problems he is faced with. He resolves to take his leave of the child first, and hopes that the child will meet a person who will take good care of him.
