Episode 21: Xiao Yu and Zhou Ji secretly compete with each other
However, when Song Zhu tried to explain, Zhou Ji didn't care, as if he had already forgotten why he left.

Xiao Yu tried to change the subject. He asked Uncle Hu about investigating the people coming from the Imperial College.In Uncle Hu Sans report, Xiao Yu learned that people from the Imperial College and people from Luoyang Third Academy lived in the same inn and were training at the same time.This convinced him that these people would help the people from Sanshuyuan cheat in the competition.In order to reveal the truth, Xiao Yu decided to ask Hu Sanshu to go to the Imperial College to investigate the identity and background of these people and who was instigating them.
