"Igor…"
"I think I rember the General ntioning this na once."
"At that ti, his expression was hard to describe…"
In the hospital room.
Yanqing fell into deep thought.
But he couldn't quite recall what Jing Yuan had specifically said back then.
In fact.
Yanqing wasn't even sure.
Whether the Igor Jing Yuan ntioned was the sa Igor from Belobog.
He could only keep watching.
If there really was a connection, it would definitely be revealed in Honkai: Star Rail in the end!
"You… aren't here to participate in the Martial Ceremony too, are you? Are you also here to challenge that guy nad Yanqing?"
Suddenly.
The storyline ntioned his na!
Luka was seen wandering around Starwatcher Avenue.
Asking for directions.
During a casual conversation, the topic of the swordsman defending the Xianzhou arena ca up.
This was normal.
And reasonable.
But!
The person randomly asked happened to be Yanqing!
The passerby turned out to be myself!
In the storyline, it seed that to avoid awkwardness, he didn't reveal his identity.
Instead, he said, "You could say that. As a martial artist, one must constantly challenge oneself."
Luka nodded, "Yeah, I agree! A warrior must always challenge themselves and face strong opponents. If you stop moving forward and let the current strong opponent intimidate you, then every past battle loses its aning."
"To represent the Luofu Xianzhou in defending the arena… Yanqing must be a formidable warrior, right? Thinking about it, I'm actually feeling a bit unsure!"
Yanqing sighed, "When I step onto the arena, I feel the sa as you. Although I have confidence in the skills I've honed over the years, in the end, I don't know what kind of strength my opponent might have, and I also carry fear in my heart."
Luka seed to have found a rare kindred spirit in a foreign land.
He enthusiastically said, "Haha, I actually have a trick to help you overco your fear before the match—"
"Find a spacious, empty place and shout your opponent's na out loud until you truly believe from the bottom of your heart that you can defeat the strong opponent who scares you."
...
""Cross-Server Chat""
"Yanqing: I'm fighting myself?"
"Haha, it's not wrong. Challenging Yanqing is indeed challenging yourself."
"Formidable warrior: Just finished fighting Hoolay, who illuminated the vast rivers."
"It seems whether one knows Yanqing can be a criterion for Luofu to judge outsiders. Many Borisin spies didn't know him before."
"The problem is, now the entire universe knows Yanqing. How to deal with that? No way to deal with it!"
...
Facing Luka's invitation.
Yanqing mustered his courage and tried it out: "I! Will definitely win! The one standing on the arena in the end will definitely be !"
Luka, on the other hand, was even more impassioned!
He shouted at the high-speed Starskiff intersection: "I! Luka! Will definitely win! I will definitely defeat Yanqing!"
"Co on, buddy, shout a couple of tis too~ Let's cheer ourselves up!"
"Huh? too?" Yanqing raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Co on, shout with !"
"I can definitely defeat Yanqing!"
Luka was very enthusiastic and excited.
Facing soone in such high spirits, it's often hard to interrupt them.
Yanqing struggled for a mont.
But he still mustered his courage.
"I can definitely defeat Yanqing!"
"Yanqing is definitely not my match!"
...
"Yanqing, don't do this, I'm a bit scared…"
"So young yet so old."
"You two, this is the street!"
"Help, help, I've already turned off the sound!"
"Yanqing clearly had a hundred ways to refuse, but he chose the one with the most barrage comnts."
"Passerby: What the hell!"
"Yanqing: I can definitely defeat Blade, Dan Heng, Jingliu, Jing Yuan, Feixiao, Yunli, Hoolay…"
"Passing Cloud Knight: General Jing Yuan, sothing's wrong! Yanqing, the brave guard, has gone mad. Mara has struck early!"
"Lord Yanqing must have his reasons for doing this."
"This is too Elation!"
"Passerby: Is the job pressure of a Cloud Knight brave guard so high? It's driving the kid crazy."
"Help, I'm so embarrassed."
"Although it's quite funny, it also feels really nice... It warms my cold, dead body..."
...
Inside the hospital room.
Yanqing watched this scene unfold.
He felt a bit parched.
What is this awkward yet touching sensation!?
Fortunately.
After going through so much.
He had gradually learned to face things with composure.
If it were before.
He might have died of embarrassnt on the spot.
Not stepping out for days or even weeks.
Afraid that people would gossip behind his back...
Now.
He could only let out a long sigh.
Silently accepting this abstract form of art.
"You're right, after shouting a few tis, I feel much more confident."
Yanqing seed to have completely given up on treatnt along with Luka.
He even felt a bit happy.
And Luka, with the deanor of soone who had been through it all, said, "I didn't lie to you! Although I haven't seen much of the world, I have plenty of experience when it cos to fighting. I hope it can help you!"
"Thank you, Luka. It's getting late, I should go prepare for the tournant."
"Brother, you haven't told your na yet?"
"...Just call Cold Edge. In the language of Xianzhou, it ans a cold sword. We'll et again if fate allows, Luka."
Watching Yanqing's figure fade into the distance.
Luka couldn't help but sigh, "...Cold Edge, what a good person with such a cold na."
...
"?"
"So edgy?"
"Yanqing has officially transitioned from elentary school to middle school."
"My na is... Invincible Swordsman123! Are you scared now?"
"This is going into Yanqing's collection of embarrassing monts."
"Hahaha why don't you just call yourself War Wolf?"
"I get it, this is a tribute to Jingliu!"
...
Seeing the barrage of comnts in the live stream.
Yanqing's mouth twitched slightly.
Ever since his online alias [Invincible Swordsman123] was exposed, he had changed it to another one he thought was cool.
—Cold Edge!
Who would have thought!
In the eyes of other players, it still wasn't cool enough.
Now it's been exposed again in the storyline of "Honkai: Star Rail"!
Damn it,
Now I have to co up with another online alias.
...
Penacony.
In a quiet bar.
Two Galaxy Rangers were watching the scene.
The shop owner was already used to it.
In fact.
This bar was a base for the Galaxy Rangers in Penacony.
Boothill said disdainfully, "This martial arts ceremony, only little cuties would go! It's a complete waste of ti!"
Rappa responded, "Your Highness Silver Spear Asura, I beg to differ. This Red Oni Ninja with the prosthetic arm has a pure and unadulterated fighting spirit, definitely not an ordinary person."
"Tch, if I were there, I'd take the championship right away."
"But, hunting down those scum from the AtaviSearch Forest is way more exciting!"
Rappa nodded, "The Evil Ape Ninja has sent evil spirits to taint the Dreamscape of Penacony, it's our duty as Ninja Rangers to stop them."
Boothill looked around.
Although internal ssages from the Galaxy Rangers indicated that Dr. Primitive's henchn had co to Penacony—
But so far.
There was no clear evidence pointing to this lead.
Due to his status, Boothill couldn't openly investigate various Dreamscape monts.
Not because he was a wanted criminal or a Galaxy Ranger...
But because.
Ever since he appeared in the storyline.
Now wherever he goes, he gets surrounded by a bunch of little cuties!
Like his precious expired SoulGlad, they just won't let go!
So Boothill planned to have Rappa investigate various regions.
While he himself would operate in the shadows.
At that mont.
Rappa let out a surprised exclamation.
"Your Highness, the Silver Spear Asura, look! You've made it to the Martial Ceremony as you wished!"
"And what's more! You have to engage in a ninja duel with the Red Oni of the Shinobi Prosthetic!"
Boothill's mouth twitched.
Only after saying this would the little cutie participate in the competition.
And now, he actually had to step onto the stage?
What kind of interstellar joke is this!?
How could I possibly take part in such a showy performance match?
