From what I can see, you pick ##i = 3## so there is no question of a summation starting with ##j = i + 1 ##

what do you mean ? Can you explain further ?
 
I can not. It is a matter of you carefully reading what's printed. Write out the ##i, j, k## of the summations in full. The one in the blue frame is empty when ##i = 3##: it is a non-starter (there is no ##j = 4##).
