I'm sorry, but I don't see any sense in what you are doing. First you put a value into a required item. Then you press the APPLY button (whatever that button is and does), which - in turn - clears that item. Finally, while saving changes (what changes? You did nothing, really ... inserting & removing a value brings you back to the beginning), you get an error saying that the required item is empty, while it requires the value.
So, what problem are you trying to solve? I, somehow, doubt that the way you are solving it now isn't right.

Are you trying to change the value a list item is set to?
Or are you trying to remove a particular value from those displayed when you open up the list item?
For the first just assign a value to the list item same as if it waa a normal item. Set it to null if you want.
For the second - don't, it never works properly.

You must realize that we know nothing about your form, or your DB, other than what you tell us.
We don't know what blocks or items you have in the form, we don't know what the process is for entering data.
A screenshot would probably help, along with a more detailed description of what you are trying to do.
