Zong WeiXia never thought Yin TianZheng could stand back up again. Seeing that he's no longer at an advantage, plus afraid of his Eagle Claws, Zong WeiXia said, "If my Qi Shang Fist is indeed nothing, then let's match fists." He wanted to make Yin TianZheng stick to just fist, not claws. This way, he can win due to superior inner power. When Zhang WuJi heard him talk about Qi Shang Fist, he thought back to that night when his godfather told that story about killing Reverend Kong Jian, then later forced him to memorize the formula. When he couldn't memorize correctly, he even got scolded. But now, he has figured out the workings of this fist form. After all, no inner power in the world can match Jiu Yang Shen Gong. Plus, Qian Kun Da Nuo Yi is made to point out how best to utilize one's power, combining all the intricacies of all the martial arts in the world. So knowing that means knowing all other martial arts. Which is why all the martial arts in the world are like open books to him. He then heard Yin TianZheng said, "Forget three fists, I can take thirty!" He then said to Kong Zhi, "Reverend Kong Zhi, I'm still alive. Are you going back on your promise?"

Kong Zhi waved his hand, said, "Everyone stop for a moment." Apparently, after Yin TianZheng found out what happened on the Brightness Peak, he had to trap Kong Zhi with words. Saying that they can't try to win by numbers. And proposed one-on-one match ups. But the remaining top level Ming fighters still could not handle their opponents. And in the end, only Yin TianZheng remained. Zhang WuJi realizes that although his grandfather is much better now, he still cannot utilize his inner chi. He's only matching palms with Zong WeiXia because he has to, in order to defend the sect. Therefore he said, "Elder Yin, I'll go take those fists for you. If I can't handle him, then you can go." Yin TianZheng realizes that this youngster's inner power is astonishing, much higher than himself even at full strength. But no matter how good he is, he still cannot fight every single person in the six major sects. So in the end, this youngster will turn out just like himself, half dead. Although he is willing to die for the Ming sect, there's no reason for an outsider, especially someone so young and skillful, to do the same. He asked, "Which sect are you from, little friend? You're not a Ming sect member, are you?" Zhang WuJi said, "Although I am not a Ming sect member, nor a Heavenly Eagle sect member, I have always respected you. I am willing to help out." Yin TianZheng can't figure out what's going on, but just as he wants to ask more, Zong WeiXia said, "Here comes my first fist, old man."

Zhang WuJi said, "Elder Yin said you're not worthy of fighting him. You have to beat me first."

Zong WeiXia immediately became angry, said, "Who the hell do you think you are? Let me show you the power of my Qi Shang Fist." Zhang WuJi thought, "Only by bring up the plan of Yuan Zhen can we solve this misunderstanding. Otherwise, how can I possibly beat all these people? Besides, how can I possibly fight my martial uncles?" So he said, "I've long known the power of Kong Dong's Qi Shang Fist. After all, didn't Reverend Kong Jian die from your Qi Shang Fist?" This sentence startled the Shaolin sect. They knew that from looking at the body, Kong Jian did indeed die from the Qi Shang Fist. Kong Wen, Kong Zhi, and Kong Sheng discussed this for a long time, finally decided that no one in the Kong Dong sect has the power to kill someone who has learnt the 'Golden Invincible Body' skill. Later they found out that the Kong Dong elders were in the southeast area, while Kong Jian died in Luo Yang*. Other than the five Kong Dong elders, no one else can even come close to harming Kong Jian, so they let it go. Besides, there are the words 'Cheng Kun killed Kong Jian' nearby. So when they found out that it's Xie Xun who pretended to be Cheng Kun, it all became clear. Only now, when Zhang WuJi brought this up again, did they all become startled. Zong WeiXia said angrily, "Everyone knows that Xie Xun is the killer. What does this have to do with us?" Zhang WuJi said, "Were you there to see this? Did you help him out?" Zong WeiXia thought, this little kid doesn't look like a beggar, nor some farm kid, what's he doing here? I bet it's the Wu Dang people who sent him, trying to cause problems between Shaolin and us. I better be careful." He said seriously, "Kong Jian died in Luo Yang. Us five elders were at Yun Nan* How can we have seen it?"

*Luo Yang was the capital of the Tang dynasty, and roughly in the central regions of China today. Yun Nan is a lot more to the south. Just felt like sharing some of the very miniscule knowledge I have of China's history and geography.

Zhang WuJi said loudly, "That's right! If you were at Yun Nan, then how do you know Xie Xun killed Kong Jian? Everyone knows that he died in the hands of the Qi Shang Fist. Xie Xun is not a member of the Kong Dong sect. How can you pin this crime on him?" Zhong WeiXia said, "Because the words 'Cheng Kun killed Reverend Kong Jian' appeared at the murder scene. Everyone knows that Xie Xun did all these crimes."

Zhang WuJi thought, "My godfather never told me this. He felt only pain and regret for killing Kong Jian. How could he possibly write something like this?" He then laughed, said, "Everyone can write these words. I can say that you wrote those words. It's easy to write words, but hard to learn Qi Shang Fist." He then turned to Kong Zhi and said, "Reverend Kong Zhi, isn't it true that Reverend Kong Jian was killed by Qi Shang Fist, and that Xie Xun was not a disciple of Kong Dong?"

Before he could respond, another monk came out, holding an iron staff in his hand. He yelled, "Little kid, which sect are you under? You think you're worthy of talking to my teacher? This just happens to be Yuan Yin. Back when Shaolin and the others went to Wu Dang to get Xie Xun's location, he's the one who said it was Zhang CuiShan who killed those Shaolin disciples. Zhang WuJi remembers this person, and his blood immediately began to boil. He kept thinking, "Zhang WuJi, oh Zhang WuJi. You're here to settle this misunderstanding, not to seek revenge. Otherwise, it can turn out really bad. You can settle this with Shaolin later." Although he knows what's the right decision, the tragic death of his parents keep appearing in his head. Sweat came down his face.

Yuan Yin then said, "If you aren't a Ming sect member, get out of here now. The Buddha is lenient. We won't stop you if you don't interfere." Zhang WuJi said, "Where's Reverend Yuan Zhen? Ask him to come out. I have some questions." Yuan Yin aid, "Brother Yuan Zhen? Why do you want him? Get out of the way. I don't have all day for rascals like you. Which sect are you under?" He saw the way Zhang WuJi pushed Zong WeiXia, knowing his teacher must be very good. Which is why he kept asking for his sect. Zhang WuJi said, "I'm not a Ming sect member. But I do know that someone purposely provoked the six major sects into fighting the Ming sect. I just want to settle this misunderstanding. Although I'm young, I do know the truth." After he said this, everyone in the six major sect began to laugh at him. With many people saying things like, "This kid's crazy. What's he blabbering about?" "Who does he think he is? Abbot of Sholin? Master Zhang of Wu Dang?" "Did he get the Dragon Saber in his dreams?" "Haha! Haha!" "He thinks we're all little kids. Oh man, my stomach hurts from the laughing!" Only Er Mei's Zhou ZhiRuo held her head low, not saying anything. Ever since she found out Zhang WuJi's identity, knowing he's the little boy she met on the boat, she has thought of him as an old friend. Later when he took her master's three palm strikes, saving those under the Golden Flag, she felt great admiration towards him. Now, seeing the crowd laughing, she cannot but help feel bad and sympathetic.
