They became friends and decided to attend a martial arts competition held in Beijing together. All the way up to Beijing Yuan taught Hu new wugong and prior to the final contest at the Jyuying Lou, Yuan defeated many famous martial arts masters.

He regretted this and turned to the medicine man, Dushou Yaowang, for help. Because of this he became familiar with Dushou Yaowang's female disciple Cheng Lingsu. He treated her like his own sister, but she fell in love with him. When he was injured with lethal poison, she sucked the poison out with her own mouth then she was poisoned and died, but he survived.
