In the middle of the night, Lingxue is still in her room in the tower. She's angry that she's not allowed to leave the room. She tells him to either let her go, or she'll hate him forever. He tells her that he'll let her out if she can level up to a two-star warrior. He then tells her to keep her word and not to let anyone harm her at the academy. He searches the entire campus for her, but he can't find her. He goes to the holy lord and asks him to ask her to return to the sect. The holy lord turns her around and tells her not to go back to the school, but to go to the trial competition the next day. She says that she has made great progress in the two months they've been together, but the competition will be a good chance for her to improve her skills.
