According to the results of the competition, the winners for the male group are Yi Feng and myself.
Now, the last round of the competition will commence, Xiu Qin
and Bai Cao.
Between the both of you, one will emerge as the only winner for the female group.
Here, Bai Cao, drink this and replenish your energy.
Let me help you massage your leg.
Hey! Why are your muscles so tight?
Are you okay? Is it because you're too nervous?
Relax a little. Your muscles will tighten and change shape if you are too nervous.
Just think that to be able to emerge as the winner of B group is already a very big deal.
Whether or not you can defeat Senior Xiu Qin, it'll all be up to luck. Relax, don't be so nervous.
Bai Cao?
Relax.
Bai Cao?
Senior Ruo Bai! What are you trying to do?
- Senior Ruo Bai. - Your physical strength declines very quickly.
The use of brute force works when you were fighting against Xiao Ying.
But, Xiu Qin is your opponent in the next round.
I know.
But, physical strength is the only thing that I have.
Let her sober up. We'll officially start in 5 minutes.
Why did Senior Ruo Bai do that? How can he treat a girl like this?
It's fine, Xiao Ying. Luckily, Senior Ruo Bai poured water on me to wake me up.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to compete later on.
Quick, sit down. I'll continue to massage your other leg.
Loosen up a little.
Does it feel good?
No matter how good Bai Cao is,
she still shouldn't be able to defeat our Senior Xiu Qin, right?
Most importantly, Bai Cao has no experience in competitions at all.
Exactly! No matter what, she won't have a higher chance of winning than my sister does.
How can you guys say that? The other day when Kim Min Joo and Bai Cao battled, no one thought she would win, but she did!
Green! Red!
Once I win this round, I can take part in the Hall Challenge Matches.
Teacher, I will make sure to see you again!
Attention! Bow!
Ready!
Start!
- All the best Senior Xiu Qin! - Come on, Bai Cao!
- All the best to the both of you! - Sister, all the best!
This kind of fearless and persistent fighting technique,
it would probably work against less skilled opponents.
But, not when it comes to a highly skilled opponent.
Bai Cao is fighting so strenuously, yet it seems like her moves don't have much of an impact.
Look, her face is full of sweat, but Senior Xiu Qin's face isn't even red yet.
But, why? Why isn't Senior Xiu Qin making her moves yet?
There isn't a need for her to do so.
I saw that the flower pot was broken, so I came over to clean it up.
Sorry to have disrupted you.
Stop!
One, Two, Three...
- Four, Five, Six. - You aren't qualified to represent Song Bai Martial Arts Hall in the Hall Challenge Matches.
Seven, Eight.
Are you okay to continue?
Ready!
Start!
She should just admit defeat.
The competition is already like this. She should just concede.
Xiu QIn is waiting for Bai Cao's energy to be drained.
When she doesn't even have the strength to lift her leg up,
then Xiu Qin can just knock her down with just a kick.
My sister is a little too much!
Come on.
Xiu Qin is getting ready for a K.O.
- Bai Cao! - Sister!
Bai Cao!
Stop!
I already told you, you aren't my opponent!
One.
Two. Three.
Teacher promises you that I will be there to cheer you on when you are in the finals of the Hall Challenge Matches.
Four. Five.
Six.
Teacher,
I won't give up.
Even if I can't see clearly,
I will still give it my all.
Are you okay to continue?
Carry on!
Sister!
One, Two, Three, Four,
Five, Six, Seven, Eight,
Nine, Ten!
Qi Bai Cao wins!
Bai Cao.
I'll do it myself!
That Qi Bai Cao really went overboard!
She dared to sneak an attack on you in the open.
To think that our Hall Master was so good to her and broke the rules to let her join Song Bai!
Yet she dared to sneak an attack on Senior Xiu Qin
and stole the opportunity to be the representative.
Exactly! She usually seems to be diligent and honest,
even going out of her way to help others. I never imagined she's actually this kind of person.
I don't think she's that bad.
- Maybe she just— - What do you mean she isn't?
She always pretends to be a little white rabbit.
But when the time comes, she becomes a big wolf!
She can do anything just to win.
Our Senior Xiu Qin is so skilled,
how could Bai Cao defeat her if she did not cheat?
That's enough! Shut your mouths!
- Hey, Yin Yin, your words were too harsh. - I didn't do anything wrong!
Bai Cao, where are you headed?
I have to hurry and wash everyone's uniform. All of them must be waiting!
But, you just hurt yourself in the match today.
You should rest more.
Don't worry, I'm fine! I wash everyone's uniform everyday.
Their uniforms must be full of sweat since everyone was training so hard these days.
It can't be left unwashed even for a day or else they will have nothing to wear.
But, Senior Chu Yuan specifically said you are to rest.
It's okay, don't worry! I'm not tired.
I still have to train after doing the chores.
There's only 2 weeks until the Hall Challenge Matches.
I have to make the best out of my time and practice since I'm representing Song Bai.
I have to do my very best!
But Bai Cao...
Don't you think Qi Bai Cao is good at pretending to be nice?
Pass me your uniforms, I'll wash them.
There's no need to.
Look guys, she's pretending to be a little white rabbit again. Let's go!
Seriously, cheating? What were you trying to do?
Exactly, there will probably be no hope for us if she represented us.
Little Bai Cao.
Are you alright? Are you still angry at them?
No, I'm not.
Actually, since the day that you successfully kicked Kim Min Joo
and made Song Bai proud in front of Chang Hai,
everyone has already started to like and accept you.
It's just that they may have misunderstood you today
and thought you had covertly attacked Senior Xiu Qin.
I did not sneak on her.
I know, I believe you.
But, they think that you did attack Senior Xiu Qin covertly and that you don't want to admit it.
You see, it's because
just as Senior Xiu Qin turned her head,
you just happened to be staring at her intently.
So, you think that I did attack her covertly too, don't you?
No, no! Listen to me.
If...I only used my eyes to access the situation, it kind of seemed that way.
But, I know that you will not lie.
So, if you said you didn't do it, I definitely believe you.
Actually, they...I mean, they have their reasons for doing so.
Bai Cao, they are really nice people. I'm serious!
They are just very concerned about the Hall Challenge Matches.
It's all just a misunderstanding! As time passes, they will know what kind of person you really are.
So don't be mad at them, okay?
I got it. I'll go practice.
As long as I can see Teacher, nothing matters.
Senior, you will definitely be chosen.
Don't worry. There won't be an issue.
I think that it will definitely be you. Don't worry so much.
Generally, those that win the competition will be able to represent us.
Okay.
Look at Qi Bai Cao. What is she even worth?
Don't worry Senior, it'll definitely be you. All the best!
Yeah, you're the best.
Assemble.
Now, I will announce
the name list for Song Bai's representatives in the Hall Challenge Matches.
After yesterday's internal selection competition,
the male participants are
Hu Yi Feng.
I have to stay up late for training again.
And Ruo Bai.
The female participant is...
Although in yesterday's competition,
Bai Cao defeated Xiu Qin in the end,
but after considering their performance and abilities,
the final decision...
will be for Xiu Qin to compete.
Sister, that's great! Did you hear that? It's you, you!
First Senior Sister!
Bai Cao.
First Senior Sister!
Why?
You don't have to trouble yourself next time. I'm just visiting a patient in the outskirts of town.
There's nothing to do on the weekends. And my dad just bought me a new car anyways.
You have to be my very first passenger.
What's wrong?
Brother Chu Yuan, this plant looks so cute. It looks just like the one that I dropped the other day.
It's that plant.
Who is that?
- Let's go. - Okay.
Enough. Start practicing now.
Okay.
Why?!
It was definitely me who won! Why won't you let me participate?
What do you think?
If it was already decided to be Senior Xiu Qin before the competition,
then why did you still make everyone go through the internal selection competition?
Didn't you say that the winner of the selection competition would be able to represent Song Bai?
It was obviously me who won.
Wasn't it you who said it yourself that I was the winner?
What are you shouting for?
Everyone who has eyes knows that
when compared to Senior Xiu Qin, your skills aren't as good as hers.
If you hadn't cheated, how would Senior Xiu Qin have lost?
Using an despicable method to win,
you are not qualified to represent Song Bai in the Hall Challenge competition!
I did not sneak an attack!
How dare you deny it?
I already said, I did not cheat!
I did not sneak the attack on Senior Xiu QIn.
At that time, I already had no strength left.
Everything was a blur. I couldn't see clearly.
I did not know that she wasn't paying attention.
I only attack based on my instincts.
Furthermore, you already gave the command to continue the match.
Even if I saw that she wasn't paying attention, I would still attack!
This is a competition. It's her fault for not paying attention, not mine!
If you nullified my rights to take part in the Hall challenge competitions because of this,
I am unwilling to accept the decision!
What rights do you have to be unsatisfied?
You, are just a deceitful person! Right?
- Yeah! - Exactly!
I said I didn't cheat!
Senior Xiu QIn, why aren't you saying anything?
Do you also think that I attacked you covertly?
Isn't this the girl from the other day?
I never imagined that she had such a fierce side to her.
All of them said you weren't paying attention at the time.
Why didn't you pay attention? The match was still going on, why did you lose focus?!
You looked down on me. You thought I was going to lose. Am I right?
But, Senior Ruo Bai had already gave the command to continue the match.
Therefore, no matter what,
you lost to me!
- Shut your mouth! - That's enough!
Your victory cannot be doubted.
But, to represent Song Bai in the Hall challenge matches,
Xiu Qin is more suitable than you.
Why?!
If you were to participate,
you'd lose for sure.
For the past few matches, your moves were single and simple.
If you were to rely only on brute force in the Hall challenge competition, you'll be crushed by the opponent.
But, I only lack the experience of being in a competition.
I will do my best!
This is my first time taking part in an actual competition.
There's still 2 weeks to the Hall challenge competition and I have room for improvement too!
Although Senior Xiu Qin has better skills than I do,
but I will do my best to train!
On the competition ground in 2 weeks' time,
maybe...
even though I fought in the way you said, I still won nevertheless!
This opportunity
is really very important to me.
Why...Why won't you give me such an opportunity!?
Brother Chu Yuan,
why don't we go in?
I've already withdrawn.
I'm not qualified to go in anymore.
Then, I'll go in to convince her.
You're such an eager and strong-minded girl.
- Wow! - Xian Wu Martial Art Hall's Fang Ting Yi!
Bai Cao, I guess you still don't understand why Ruo Bai made such a decision.
Why not...You have a match with me.
This way, you might be able to understand Ruo Bai's concerns.
Ruo Bai, although I'm not from Song Bai,
is it okay for us to have a friendly match?
Treat it as an opportunity for this lady here to prove her worth.
Are you willing to?
That's weird. Why would Senior Ting Yi want to have a match with Bai Cao?
Bai Cao against Senior Ting Yi?
At most she'll feel sore after and not be in pain, right?
I'll compete with you.
Ping Ping.
I'm here.
Bring Ting Yi to prepare.
Okay. Senior Ting Yi, let's go!
You too.
Bai Cao,
you really want to fight against Senior Ting Yi?
She is An Yang's, no, our country's top 2 competitor!
You better not compete with her...
No way. I want to compete against her.
To be able to meet Master,
I must prove my worth.
Good luck!
This isn't right,
both of their skills are vastly different.
The usual Yuan Wu Dao competitions are classified according to grades too.
It's to ensure the competition is fair and also for the participants' safety.
If the difference in skills is huge, the life of the weaker one may be endangered.
She chose it for herself.
She should assume the responsibility of the outcome.
If she can't assume responsibility, she should just withdraw earlier.
That's too cruel. You're more like an enemy than the First Senior Disciple.
Attention. Bow!
Ready.
Start!
Let me show you what Yuan Wu Dao really is.
I have to prove my abilities.
Why is she so fast? I cannot even see how she kicked!
- Bai Cao! - Xiao Cao Cao is such a poor thing!
Aiya! Her nose is bleeding already!
Isn't this a little too much?
Bai Cao! Hold on.
Bai Cao.
I'm sorry for hurting you.
However, if you were to participate in the Hall challenge competition,
others may not be as lenient as me.
So, it's for your own good that Ruo Bai didn't want to let you join the competition.
I didn't attack sneakily.
And, it's not that I didn't understand what Senior Ruo Bai said.
I just...I just wasn't willing to accept it.
Little Grass...
I let Master down.
Master sacrificed so much for me to be able to get into Song Bai Martial Arts Hall.
I practiced very hard everyday.
I gave it my everything.
I did my best so as to get the chance to join the Hall challenge competition.
But...
I didn't manage to do it.
Little Grass, Master once said,
with perseverance and hard work,
there will be one day when I become an extraordinary Yuan Wu Dao apprentice.
Master was lying to me, to console me. Wasn't he?
In front of Senior Xiu Qin
and Senior Ting Yi,
I was unable to withstand their blows.
I couldn't even see Senior Ting Yi's kicks clearly.
Don't you think I'm useless?
I'm really useless...
Senior Chu Yuan, this way.
Bai Cao, Senior Chu Yuan is here to visit you.
Let him see your injuries.
What's wrong?
Bai Cao,
you must be in pain.
You took so many hits today.
If you don't receive treatment in time, it might become an troublesome injury in future.
What if you can't practice Yuan Wu Dao anymore?
How will you meet Master Qu then?
I'm fine. I'll recover soon.
Bai Cao.
I'm fine.
There is no need to trouble Senior Chu Yuan.
Qi Bai Cao, can you not be so stubborn about this matter?
You don't want to treat your injuries.
Don't tell me you want to hide in here forever?
XIao Ying, leave her alone for now.
Maybe she just wants some quiet.
But, her injuries...
I saw the match just now.
TIng Yi's kicks were restrained. It wouldn't have hurt someone very badly.
Bai Cao, I'll leave the ointment here.
When she's in a better mood,
help her to apply ointment on the bruised areas.
Feel free to find me if she is hurting elsewhere.
Okay.
Bai Cao, I'll make a move first.
Please, take good care of her.
If there's any problems, look for me immediately.
Okay.
Because of the Hall challenge competitions,
I have to train until this late everyday. I'm so weary.
I haven't played my games in a long time. I must have deteriorated.
Qi Bai Cao really wants to take part,
how good would it be if I could give her my spot in the competition.
She got hit so badly by Ting Yi today.
I wonder how she's doing now.
Ting Yi's totally suppressive technique of fighting,
it might have crushed Bai Cao's confidence.
Hey, Ruo Bai. Let's pay her a visit.
Mind your own business.
Excuse me.
Senior Chu Yuan?
What brings you here?
I have something to talk about with Ruo Bai.
Take your time to talk. I'll go in first.
- Ruo Bai. - I remember you said before,
that once you leave Yuan Wu Dao,
you'll never step onto training and competition grounds.
But, you stepped into the training hall today...
and also the match mat.
Are you regretting it?
Ever since you withdrew from Yuan Wu Dao,
we no longer have anything to talk about.
I want to talk to you about Bai Cao.
I can see that she is a good seedling. She is worth nurturing.
It's just that she suffered a series of attacks today
and isn't in a good condition.
I'm kind of worried about her.
You're the First Senior Disciple. You might be able to help her walk out of the dark.
First Senior Disciple? Back then,
I had a First Senior Disciple, too. He was my role model.
But, he said he wanted to withdraw and he just withdrew. He didn't care that he was wasting his talents and
he didn't care about the expectations others had of him. At that time, why didn't he ask
how much that affected us?
Ruo Bai.
From then on
his mother stayed overseas for a long time
and Song Bai Martial Arts Hall dropped sharply from its high ranks.
Yet, he didn't even give us an explanation for it.
Who was there to help us out of the shock?
It was because...
I'm sorry.
You should leave. Since you've already left, you shouldn't be involved in these.
I hope you'll stay further away from our training hall.
Leave Song Bai disciples alone.
You had to carry too many responsibilities in my place.
I let you down.
Xiao Ying, training is starting soon. What's up with Bai Cao? Why isn't she here yet?
I don't know, she was gone by the time I woke up. She didn't answer my calls either.
It can't be.
First Senior Disciple is here!
Attention!
- Greet First Senior Disciple! - Good morning, First Senior Disciple!
Why isn't Qi Bai Cao here?
Senior Ruo Bai,
Bai Cao is sick!
You know about her matters?
Senior Ruo Bai, that...Bai Cao is hurt quite seriously.
She wanted to come, but I made her stay at home and rest.
If she can't even endure even a little injury, she shouldn't come anymore.
That's enough. Pair up and start training.
Bai Cao, where did you go?
Quan Sheng Martial Arts Hall.
Master, I miss you.
Where did she go?
Senior Ruo Bai.
Because you failed once, you're prepared to give up?
You didn't even come to practice.
Qi Bai Cao.
If you act like this, do you think you can still be counted as being a Yuan Bai Dao martial artist?
I...
You said yourself, in order to meet your Master,
you wanted to attend the competition.
You only failed once, you can't even withstand it?
I let Master down.
- I can't attend the Martial Arts Hall Challenge Matches. - That's right.
You should be sorry to your Master.
Not because you couldn't attend the Competition,
but because you gave up hope due to failure. I believe that Master Qu
would want to see a Qi Bai Cao who keeps improving and with outstanding abilities.
And not the one now, who wanted to give up because she couldn't attend.
I didn't want to give up! I only...
I only feel...
I might not have any abilities or talent.
Yesterday, it was as if Senior Ting Yi could see my every attempt at attacking.
And in the end,
I couldn't even see where Senior Ting Yi was.
Just like what you said.
I can only rely on ferocity.
That's right. That's what I said. It's not enough to rely only on your ferocity.
But, you can't not have your strength either.
To a Yuan Wu Dao candidate, a body's strength is the most basic condition.
What is K.O. victory?
K.O. means when one side overpowers another and they fall
in ten seconds, they can't attend the competition anymore.
That way, no matter what the score was for either party, the one who fell
will always be counted as the loser of the competition.
Then, why would there be K.O. in an official competition?
In the beginning, Yuan Wu Dao wasn't only a sport to strengthen the body.
There's also a lot of power in wrestling and self-defense.
But as Yuan Wu Dao became a competing item,
just by kicking the opposition in the right position would get you points.
So, more and more candidates began to overlook power.
They only focused on technique.
If it continues like this,
Yuan Wu Dao would become a dancing performance and lose its real purpose.
That's why the K.O. rule was made.
The purpose of this rule it to let all competing candidates know,
that if one person could defeat the opposition with the right preparation of power, that person will be the real victor.
That means, even though Master couldn't teach me Yuan Wu Dao,
he determinedly had me practice basic power.
Power is your specialty.
It's also because of your Master that you could have such a power now.
Are you going to give up because of failing once?
Think about this yourself.
Can you face your Master?
Can you face yourself?
If you're like that,
then why not leave Song Bai earlier?!
Xiao Ying, is Bai Cao not going to come again?
I also don't know. There's no class this week.
I haven't seen her the whole day. I don't know where she is either.
Say, Bai Cao was so desperate yesterday.
She wouldn't take it to heart, right?
Don't jinx it!
She only got beaten by Senior Ting Yi. What is there to be depressed about?
Whomever from our Hall fights Senior Ting Yi never wins.
You're still talking? It's only because of you guys.
You kept saying that Bai Cao cheated. I already said, Bai Cao would never lie.
What a waste that she was usually so good to you guys, helping you do your daily duties and cleaning.
You guys still didn't believe her.
We didn't tell her to do it.
Moreover, actually we didn't not like Bai Cao.
We're too focused about that competition. We're worried that if she went to the competition,
doesn't that mean that we already lost?
That's right.
I can't be bothered talking to you guys.
Bai Cao, hurry and come back.
If you still don't come back to practice, Senior Ruo Bai will probably go mad.
Song Bai Hall
Senior Ruo Bai!
Only you three?
Bai Cao is a still a little sick. She just took some medicine and went to sleep.
I'm sorry! I'm late.
Bai Cao, you're here! I was worried, not knowing where you went.
That medicine was so effective. You got well so quickly.
Alright, practice.
Yes!
One!
Two!
Three!
Four!
Five!
Bai Cao, I've troubled you.
Grandpa Chen.
I've already taken a picture of these books and posted it on the internet.
Right now, many young people want buy old books, but they don't know where buy them.
So, they will come here to buy your books soon.
Good, good, That's great!
Bai Cao, I've troubled you.
In the past, your Master helped me. Now, I'll rely on your help.
If I didn't have you two, my bookstore would have closed already.
What is this? Grandpa Chen, don't say that. This is nothing.
You can go do what you have to do.
Okay, okay.Thank you. Sit, sit.
Bai Cao! Do you like it?
That book is too old, I was about to throw it out. If you like it, take it.
Really?
This child. Take it, take it.
Thank you, Grandpa Chen.
You're welcome, welcome!
Tornado Kick
Lazy pig, wake up. Breakfast is ready for you.
I made what you love, fried double-yolk egg. It's downstairs.
What?
Of course me, your brother, made it. Otherwise, who else would understand you, your princess attitude.
What? Reporters want to interview me?
Forget it. I don't think there is anyone who doesn't know me.
Hey. Hello?
What? Train? Do I, Fang Ting Hao, still need to practice?
Okay. Just like that.
Right now, I don't want to do any interviews. Bye.
I saved you. Shouldn't you thank me?
What is this?
Tha-thank you.
You also do Yuan Wu Dao? Which martial arts hall?
Why do I have to tell you? I already said thank you.
Return the book to me.
Return it to you. Okay.
Here.
You really don't know who I am?
Who are you?
It's fine that you don't know me. But, if you tell me where your martial arts hall is,
I will return this to you.
Just those two moves?
You really do know Yuan Wu Dao. Do you really not know who I am?
Do I have to know you because I practice Yuan Wu Dao?
Are you famous?
Of course, I...
Of course, I'm not famous.
But, I also like practicing Yuan Wu Dao.
I see that you're so skilled at it.
But I can consider having you teach me, how about that?
Why do you have to have me teach you?
You! Do you have to be so close to talk?! I'm not even close with you!
Are you shy? I'm just joking with you.
Seeing that I saved you today, give me your number.
I'll give you material benefits. You can write it on my hand.
Pretty girl! Teach me Yuan Wu Dao next time we see each other!
'Get in line?'
Mr. Fang, you're here to visit your mother again?
Mr. Fang Ting Hao! He's so handsome!
In addition, he's in touch with his emotions. He's really very handsome.
Idol, fall in love with me! With me!
Little beauty. How did you sleep last night?
Actually, you look quiet good.
The doctor says your body is better.
Be strong.
Brother.
You little liar, you said you just woke up, how come you are here?
Aren't you the same, you said you went out to play, but you are here instead.
I wanted you to get more sleep since you were out so late last night.
How was the double-yolk fried egg I made? Was it good?
Of course, it tasted good. My dear brother's fried egg is the best in the world.
Hey, hey, hey. You know how to sweet talk.
Hold this, I'll go get a vase.
Mom, Ting Yi and I have come to visit you. We also brought your favourite, Lily of the Nile.
Do you like it?
You always bought a bunch of lilies when we were little
and put it in front of our house.
You said we'll forget all the unhappy things when
we see the beautiful flowers and smell the fragrance.
But, you are no longer at home now.
Rarely anyone would buy flowers.
Oh, right.
Mom, look.
This is a medal me and Ting Yi won when we were in Korea.
Mom look, there's so many medals and barely anymore room for more.
There are not many people who can defeat me now in the martial arts world.
I've already won the world championship.
This is all thanks to your good genes.
But, father doesn't want me to do martial arts anymore.
He wants me to take over Fang Family Enterprise.
Before that, I have one more important competition to attend.
