• At the Central Military Camp, Han Keke argued with Xu Wanqing while waiting for Chen Lie, then recognized him as the person who had knocked her out of the rankings.

Chen Lie received the Northwest General Star award, then proved to officer Zhuo Nuo that he was a protected Blue Star genius rather than an Outer Stars spy.

Chen Lie and the other Special Enrollment Students witnessed Princess Zhu Jingxi and Administrator Candidate Huo Jinghong arrive at the Drill Ground, where Zhu Jingxi’s Vermilion Birds suddenly went berserk and injured students. After Chen Lie demanded compensation for the injuries, Huo Jinghong unleashed his Extreme Realm Pressure, leaving their confrontation unresolved.

• Shen Miaowei explained that Blue Star had several Administrator Candidates and described their elevated status, while Tang Jiu'er told Luo Zhixun about Huo Jinghong and Zhu Jingxi’s reputations.
• Zhu Jingxi asked Huo Jinghong to help pursue an alliance between Blue Star and Red Flame Planet and to introduce her to a fifteen-year-old Blue Star Divine Sense genius.

• Chen Lie demanded an explanation and compensation from Huo Jinghong, who responded by unleashing his Extreme Realm Pressure.

Chen Lie demanded compensation after Zhu Jingxi’s Vermilion Bird injured a student, despite Huo Jinghong’s pressure and threats. Huo retaliated by seeking to strip Chen Lie of his Three-Province Martial Champion title, leaving Feng Shuangshuang and Lu Qingchan distressed as the other students feared for Chen Lie’s future.
