China's world No. 8 He Bingjiao and No. 3 Shi Yuqi progressed later as they defeated Thailand's Busana Ongbamrungphan and Japan's Kazumasa Sakai in a women's and men's singles fixture in just half an hour for each.
China's Zheng Siwei/Huang Yaqiong, seeded fourth, brushed aside their non-seeded contenders Wang Chi Lin/Lee Chia Hsin from Chinese Taipei in three games, winning by 21-12, 17-21, 21-16 into the mixed doubles quarterfinal.
