After Flender sent everyone to eat, he realized Su Zui had defeated both students alone and began to suspect the young man was an extraordinary talent.

Su Zui’s argument with Flender turned into a feud between Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, exposing Dai Mubai’s womanizing and shattering Zhu Zhuqing’s remaining hopes. Flender then challenged Su Zui and Ning Rongrong to fight all the other students at once, promising to renovate the cafeteria if they won.

• Flender challenged Su Zui and Ning Rongrong to fight all the other students present at the same time, promising to renovate the cafeteria if they won.

• Ning Rongrong angrily accused Flender of putting Su Zui at a disadvantage, and Su Zui calmed her and got her to apologize.
• Ning Rongrong explained that Tang San’s Hidden Weapons had injured Zhao Wuji, so Flender took Tang San’s Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges before the fight.

After Su Zui ridiculed Flender's plan to make them run all day, Flender asked him to propose a better approach, and Su Zui began by raising questions about surviving life-or-death battles.
