Danny sits alone in the banquet hall. His mask is off now and a purple bruise is on his face from his fight with Fat Cobra. Lei Kung enters silently and stands behind him but he does not turn around. "You fought well, Daniel Rand-K'ai," he tells him, "You have honored K'un L'un."

"I didn't care if I won or lost," Danny says quietly, still not turning toward him.

"I... know that."

"I'm glad it's over. It means I can get Misty and Colleen out of here sooner."

"You realize K'un L'un will only appear once every fifty years now."

"Isn't that what you wanted?"

"What?"

"I spoke to Dog Brother #1 and the Bride of Nine Spiders. They didn't care too much if they didn't spend time on Earth and I know how K'un L'un feels about the outside world. Chances are, the rest of the Seven Cities feel the same way. The Seven Cities fight to lose and they don't even realize it."

"Daniel Rand-K'ai,... you possess the power of the Iron Fist. It is a great honor. You should feel proud you have been given this rare gift and the chance to compete in this tournament."

"You have no idea how I feel."

Kei Lung closes his eyes in sadness and simply walks away, leaving Danny.

Colleen and Misty sit silently in their cells. Soon, a figure appears at the barred metal door, so they look up to see Davos peering through the bars. "What the hell do you want?," Colleen asks.

"I have been asked to come watch over you two," he tells them cheerfully, "It seems your beloved Daniel Rand will attempt to rescue you."

"Once the tournament is over, we'll be set free," Misty responds, "That was the deal."

"This tournament may not have the sort of ending everyone expects."

Musicians play drums and Chinese flutes. Fat Cobra steps out of the shadows of the basement along with The Green Mist of Death. Together, they walk out into the middle of the arena while the audience clap and streamers fall from the sky. It's now the third and final round. The arena is still damaged from Danny's fight but there is still room for a small podium in the center. Fat Cobra and Green Mist step onto it, turn to the stands, and bow. Crane Mother stands before them and spreads her arms, "Dear citizens of the Seven Cities of Heaven, it has been too long since we were able to complete a tournament. The third round will be the deciding contest. The final cities to remain in the tournament are Z'Gambo and Peng Lai Island. The winner of this match will determine which city will return to the Earth once a decade."

Danny enters the basement area and watches alongside Dog Brother, Tiger's Beautiful Daughter, and Bride of Nine Spiders. In the arena, Crane Mother comes forward, "Before we begin this round, I would like to make a confession...". The Council turn to each other curiously as she speaks. "As the queen of K'un Zi, I have taken it upon myself to study the black arts and learn all I can about our existence. While the rest of the Seven Cities of Heaven focused inward on themselves and did all they could to shy away from the outside world, I welcomed it... embraced it, even from afar." Fat Cobra and Green Mist look at each other, completely baffled. "I learned of secret passageways between worlds, hidden realms," Crane Mother continues, "During my studies all these years, I have come across the revelation that there is an Eighth City of Heaven." There is a murmur among the audience, particularly the Council. Crane Mother drops her arms at her sides, "Yes, dear citizens of the Heart of Heaven... we are not alone. There is one more City of Heaven and it has kept itself a secret from us."

Danny turns to the other Immortal Weapons, "An Eighth City of Heaven? What does this mean?"

"I... don't know," Dog Brother answers.

"The Eighth City has been aware of us for some time. They have been watching us, biding their time," Crane Mother continues as she hangs her head, "When I discovered it, I was captured and given a choice. I was commanded to help them destroy the Council and their Immortal Weapons. In exchange, I would be allowed to live and my city would remain untouched."

The Council rise to their feet at once. Lei Kung shouts to her, "Crane Mother, if this is true and we share an enemy, then we can join forces and destroy the Eighth City together."

"I have already made my choice," Twin knives fall out of her sleeves and drop into her palms, "All of you must die."

She turns and hurls her knives at Fat Cobra and Green Mist with great force and speed. Fat Cobra quickly snatches the knife out of the air before it strikes him and Green Mist simply turns to fog and allows the knife to pass through him. A second later, Crane Mother disappears in a black cloud. The entire arena stares in disbelief, then her Daughters rush through the stands, weapons drawn as they face down the citizens of the Heart of Heaven. The Council are likewise swarmed by Daughters who box them in their section and threaten them with swords and spears. Danny and the other Immortal Weapons rush onto the arena floor as more enter through the main gate.

"I need to get to Colleen and Misty," Danny tells them.

"Go," Hua commands, "We'll cover you!"

"Good luck," Dog Brother tells him.

Danny rushes to the main entrance where some Daughters block his way. He gets ready to fight, but soon notices a swarm of spiders crawling past him and soon, they make their way to foes guarding the gate. They drop their weapons and begin swatting at the spiders but eventually, they cover them bring them down to the ground. Danny turns and notices Bride of Nine Spiders who winks and smiles at him. He smiles back and quickly leaves. As the Daughters follow, Dog Brother and Hua stand back-to-back and begin cutting them down with their blades. Green Mist whips around, taking out several from the stands. "Go to your homes!," he shouts to the citizens and they quickly flee the area.

Meanwhile, Lei Kung and the rest of the Council face down their assassins. "Have courage, brothers and sisters," he tells them, "Let us show them the reason we are the rulers of the Seven Cities!" The kings and queens rush the Daughters and begin to over power them with kicks and punches. One daughter brandishes twin blades and menaces Lei Kung who simply shoves two fingers into her neckline, killing her instantly. As they deal with their would-be killers, a line of armored archers stand ready across the arena and take aim. Once they have their targets in their sights, they launch their arrows and Lei Kung turns in time to see a volley of arrows heading straight for them. There is no time to react but once the arrows get near, they quickly disappear in a blur of movement.

Fat Cobra stands on the other side of their section with an arm full of caught arrows, "My kings and queens, I respectively ask you to go to the basement where you might be safer." The Council agree and quickly rush down the steps to take cover in the basement. Fat Cobra turns his attention to the archers across the way and in a blur of movement, begins throwing the arrows back and they are quickly mowed down.

Outside the arena, Danny spots Crane Mother's tower in the distance and runs for it.
