• Long Tian, Long Hai, and Long Lu tested their new Coiling Dragon Staffs by knocking Ma Hongjun unconscious, then joined the fight against Tang San as Li Qin withdrew with injuries.
• Tang San’s Clear Sky Hammer matched Long Lu’s Coiling Dragon Staff, but the brothers’ enhanced speed and coordinated attacks forced Tang San to defend and evade.

• Bibi Dong ordered Xu Zi to coordinate with his teammates to deal killing blows to Tang San and draw out Tang Hao, but Xu Zi told his teammates not to interfere in the one-on-one duel.
