Synopsis

The chapter revolves around a challenge issued to Jin Sohan by an individual who also seems to have made some of the meeting leaders drink some strange liquid, all while other faction members reveal their affiliations and discuss the possibility of betrayals. Faction Leader Song is criticized for lowering his value, which seems to be tied to his usefulness to Jin Sohan, who threatens to expose hidden assassins. The chapter culminates with the challenge being accepted, with the challenger agreeing to kneel after the duel, showing a high degree of confidence or perhaps desperation.
