There's a catch

Darn drama just got better and actually gave me what I wanted!

The Old Heretic tests Ouyang Ke and Guo Jing in three rounds of tests in combat, music and divination knowledge. But in actuality the tests measure their martial arts skills and mastery, inner strength/qi, and reciting the Nine Yin manual from memory.

Guo Jing already proved his superiority in combat skills and musical defense from the various training he learned from the Mongols, the Seven Freaks, Priest Ma Yu, the Old Beggar Qi Gong, and the Old Urchin Zhou Botong. What the Old Heretic doesn't know is that the Urchin had also made Jing-ge memorize the Manual while in training.

The selection of the son-in-law has been decided but there's a catch. The heretic has made a vow to his dead wife to burn the manual stolen by Mei Chaofeng, but since he failed to retrieve it, he decides to burn his son-in-law to-be instead.
