The sword-practicing scene was filmed in two separate scenes.
When the weather changed, the crew had to use water pipes to "artificially rain" the film.
Shi Xi thought that Chu Yuan's performance was so perfect that he would pass the test in one take.
Director Yan lived up to his name, and after yelling "Cut!", he said, "Chu Yuan, don't look so serious. Tang Dao hasn't been burdened with hatred yet, so relax."
Departments, get ready, let's do it one more time.
Shi Xi's eyes widened.
She was so focused on Chu Yuan's actions that she didn't notice his expression.
Did it NG?
Shi Xi quietly moved behind Director Yan and looked at the scene in the camera.
Chu Yuan returned to his original position with the knife, and showed no dissatisfaction upon hearing Director Yan's request.
Even after winning the Best Actor award, Chu Yuan remained hardworking and conscientious.
Shi Xi's feelings for Chu Yuan are growing stronger.
Who doesn't like a handsome and earnest man?
Zhu Lin watched from the side, feeling somewhat uneasy.
Really?
Could Shi Xi have taken a liking to Chu Yuan?
Zhu Lin wondered whether she should tattle on him.
After Chu Yuan filmed seven takes, Director Yan finally nodded in satisfaction, "Cut, prepare for the next scene."
Chu Yuan was so tired he couldn't even lift his sword. He lay on a rest chair, waiting for the props team to prepare for the rain.
The next scene is a sword dance in the rain.
Shi Xi watched the camera from the side and thought that even the parts where Chu Yuan made mistakes were perfect.
He truly deserves his reputation as a popular actor; he's handsome, hardworking, has excellent acting skills, and is approachable.
Zhu Lin watched in terror, clutching her phone and contemplating whether to tattle on him.
The props team quickly prepared everything, and Chu Yuan returned to the middle of the bamboo forest to continue practicing his swordsmanship.
In the rain, Chu Yuan exuded an even stronger sense of unwavering masculinity.
So handsome!
Shi Xi's eyes were shining, wishing she could move Director Yan over and sit in the director's chair to watch.
The scene of practicing swordsmanship in the rain was filmed three times, with a few additional shots taken in between, and then it was done.
Shi Xi also noticed Director Yan's seriousness about filming and his absolute disapproval of any mistakes.
In one scene, Chu Yuan finished practicing his swordsmanship and lost his balance.
Originally, it could have been cut out in post-production, but Director Yan insisted on reshooting it.
That's really strict.
Shi Xi sighed.
Director Yan: "Let's change locations and film the next scene."
Shi Xi unconsciously straightened her body.
The next scene will be hers.
Yes, although she is the second female lead, she is the male lead's ideal woman, and she will appear in the first episode.
And it will be offline soon.
Back at Tang Clan, they prepared to film Shi Xi's scenes.
Shi Xi plays Tang Xi, the daughter of the Tang Clan leader. She is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and songs, and her weapon is a hidden sword.

The rain grew heavier, and after finishing his Tang sword practice, he rushed back to the Tang Clan.
Turning the corner of the corridor, I saw Tang Xi holding an umbrella.
Her slender, snow-white hands slowly opened the umbrella, and as the edge of the umbrella rose, the girl beneath it looked up.
"Cut—Shi Xi, it's 'raise your eyes,' not 'look up.' Don't stare so wide!"
Shi Xi: ...I didn't glare! My eyes are naturally big!
Despite her inner turmoil, Shi Xi obediently replied, "Okay."
The scene where Shi Xi holds the umbrella was reshot.
"Don't laugh, you don't need to laugh! Just open the umbrella normally!"
"Why are you holding on so fast? Are you in a hurry to be reborn?"
Shi Xi: Damn it!
"There needs to be a time difference between opening the umbrella and looking up. If you slow down, the post-production team won't slow down your movements!"
"Why is your expression so stiff? Can't you even act?"
Shi Xi: Anyone would have a stiff expression after ten takes!!
"Ten-minute break!" Director Yan slumped back into his chair in annoyance.
Shi Xi rubbed her face and stepped forward, asking, "Director Yan, can I see what we filmed earlier that wasn't okay?"
