In the funeral of PAK, TSUN requested SING to promise to glorify Black Dragon Clique. As the youngest uncle was not fine with having SING to be the leader, they finally decided to choose the successor by fighting competition. In order to have SING to be the successor according PAK’s will, TSUN convinced KEUNG to cheat.

In order to repay the kindness of PAK, KEUNG pretended being defeated by SING. KIU asked FUNG-NIN to visit KWAI when she knew that SING has become the successor. SING and TSUN then misunderstood FUNG-NIN. FUNG-NIN told YUET that TSUN was interested in the jade that FUNG-NIN was wearing. In fact TSUN’s daughter also carried this kind of jade. YUET found out that CHING might be TSUN’s daughter after investigation. On the other hand, in order to let MA putting down his hatred, YUET requested CHING’s assistance by showing MA a play of murdering.

However, MA was approaching YUET when he woke up……

YUET pretended taking a nap after curing MA. MA wanted to kill him but was hardhearted enough when he captured the memory about their past. During their fight, YUET accidentally fell down from the cliff. MA tried to save him but YUET finally sacrificed, as he didn’t want to encumber MA. According to YUET’s will, CHING told MA the truth. MA was then totally collapsed. On the other hand, KONG and WAI wanted to weaken Mayor CHEUK’s power for his opposition of Russian’s mine exploiting plan, which was colluded with KONG and WAI. WAI sent all disciples of Black Dragon Clique into jail. TSUN blamed KWAI. Thus, KWAI requested to talk with WAI afterwards. KWAI threatened him with her death and explained with the conflicts of interests. Finally the disciples were released. In order to convince TSUN letting her to stay at the campus, KWAI persuaded SING to fight with MA.

SING has KWONG to send a letter of challenge to MA in order to regain the fame of Black Dragon Clique. However, MA refused the challenge in the first place but he then accepted after criticizing by NGO. CHING related the truth of YUET’s death to KWAI as she wanted to stop MA from the fight. However, KWAI distorted the message. SING thought MA has murdered YUET. During their fight, both of them were of approximately equal strength.

They wanted to bring MA to the martial arts association in the Capital City, which consequently brought the Mayor with a big trouble. NGO finally accepted. On the other hand, with CHING’s comfort, MA decided to quit from the arena of martial arts.

With NGO’s encouragement, MA stepped back to the arena. By using MAI’s illness as an excuse, FUNG-NIN asked CHING to help in his restaurant that gave KIU a bad feeling. With CHING’s absence, MA then realized he has kind of feeling towards CHING. Having met with CHUEN, FUNG-NIN interrogated MA and beat him badly. NGO helped MA to practice Tai Chi contributing to his big improvement. NGO suggested MA to found a campus for apprentices. MA discussed with CHING and gained her support. In fact, KONG arranged it. In the Mid-Autumn fiesta, NGO nominated MA to join the Huan Meng Association that has discontented the people. On the other hand, CHEUK supported MA to establish his own clique. KONG is triumphant. TSUN inferred MA was MO CHIK’s son by seeing the medal of Divine Skills Camp left by MA. He then kidnapped CHING to further investigate.
