Synopsis

The chapter focuses on the growing resentment among non-Jaegal martial artists due to preferential treatment given to clan members, which is described as "natural" but causes anger. A martial artist named Kang Gichan openly challenges this disparity, leading to a duel against a Jaegal clan member. Kang Gichan wins decisively using a real sword, which surprises onlookers who expected Jaegal sword skills to be more impressive, particularly their famed sword formations. The chapter ends with Kang Gichan seeking a demonstration of these formations.
