Yang Wenguang steps forward from the ranks and says, “The Yang family needs both commanders and generals. I may be young, but I am determined not to let my family fall behind!” Wang Hui responds coldly, “Military affairs are of utmost importance and cannot be handled lightly. Replacing Yang’s commanding position out of personal vendettas endangers the stability of the entire court!”
Yu Taijun angrily says, “Lord Wang, you underestimate the Yang family. For three generations, our family has been loyal and brave on the battlefield, sacrificing for the nation. Which of our actions were for private revenge? Which one was not for the safety of the country and the people?” This renders Wang Hui speechless. 
Emperor Renzong, moved by Taijun’s words, sees an opportunity to act. He announces that Taijun can now freely bestow the commander’s insignia. Wang Hui is displeased and challenges Taijun’s authority. He insists on testing their skills, claiming he would stop if defeated in battle. Taijun smiles lightly and says, “Very well! Go back and prepare. I will have someone face you!” 
After Renzong leaves, Taijun immediately summons her grandchildren, Cui Ying, Miss Eight, Miss Nine, and others, to prepare for tomorrow’s competition. Wenguang notices that he has not been mentioned, and asks urgently, “Great Grandmother, what about me?” 
Prince Chai, believing that the Yang family has a promising future, tries to dissuade Taijun: “Battlefields are dangerous. Wenguang is too young and should stay at home.” However, the Seventh Sister interjects: “Wenguang is my disciple. If he can’t participate, I will also not be able to stay here.” Prince Chai reluctantly agrees, allowing Wenguang to compete. 
Wenguang desperately insists on participating, and the other family members argue. Taijun states, “Stop arguing. Tomorrow, let Wenguang and his mother compete. If he wins, let him go.”
The next day, at the competition grounds, the banners are raised and the bugles sound. Taijun, Yu Taijun, and the gathered generals watch as Wenguang and Cui Ying prepare to compete. 
Both mother and son ride swiftly into the arena, each displaying their respective skills, unwilling to yield. Prince Chai’s intervention allows Cui Ying to win. Taijun, Yu Taijun, Yang Seventh Sister, and other generals all give Wenguang encouragement. 
In the second round, Cui Ying tests Wenguang’s mastery. Despite her forceful attacks, Wenguang remains resilient. However, he starts to falter. Yang Seventh Sister, seeing the unfavorable situation, hastily orders the drums to sound, signaling the end of the round.
In the third round, the match is set to determine victory. Wenguang’s mother tries to hold back and avoid injuring him. Cui Ying shouts that the match must not be compromised, resolving to give her all. As Wenguang is about to land a decisive blow, he intentionally loosens his grip, causing himself to fall off his horse.
