Synopsis

The chapter begins with the protagonist confirming he's back in his old room, before his martial arts training. He remembers a time when he was beaten up and the inn was destroyed because of a rumor about his desire to see a famous singer. Surprisingly, he finds he now possesses qi, a power he didn't have previously. He quickly progresses in his martial arts, realizing this power is likely connected to a heavenly pearl he swallowed, and decides to re-explore the prefecture.
