Other than reading books, Ye Futian also went to play chess at Chess Peak to gain a deeper understanding of the way of chess first hand. He became more and more able to see the intricacies of chess, and he deemed that if he was able to master the way of chess, it would do him a lot of good in helping with his training.
He also came to know, in the days he spent there, who Liu Zong was—a student of Xihua Sacred Mountain, a sacred ground of the Orthodoxy in the Eastern State. Furthermore, he was the personal student of the saint and was renowned as number one among the younger generations of Xihua Sacred Mountain. All three mighty ones of Saint Plane served as his teacher, and it was said that if there was a saint to emerge from the next Orthodoxy Battles of the Nine States, there was no doubt that it would be Liu Zong.
