Chapter 378 126: Perfect Completion
"Good, that's it, the two of you cross swords in one hand, while with the other hand you wave the short cloaks in your hands to distract the enemy, then execute gorgeous swordsmanship, and at the end, strike a pose, slowly sheathing the sword back into its scabbard."
Inside the Tianfang Training Hall, where the 'Hat and Short Sword' club is stationed, the PV shooting was in full swing. Some club members continued fencing in the background as extras, while the two boys in front of the camera began to swing and weave their swords in a display that was both elegant and forthright, especially in the few frames where they paused mid-action. The straight sword edge, slanted across the center of the frame, dominated the view, and the wisps of smoke rising from the blade delivered a powerful impact.
In the finale, one member used his short cloak to blind his opponent, then thrust his sword through the cloak, which was split in two by the sharp wind of the sword, while his opponent was declared defeated by a stab near the neck, a space away from the flesh. The swordsman then gracefully spun the blade and slid it back into the scabbard.
"Good! Fantastic, I can already imagine the scene of girls watching this and screaming in excitement~" Li Xun applauded and congratulated from the sidelines.
Afterward, the rest of the club members gathered around to watch the footage, buzzing with discussion.
"The filming is indeed great, this is definitely going to make Xiao Yicheng famous outside the school."
"Damn it, if only my skin were a bit whiter, I'd surely be handsomer than him!"
"How did I not know about such a wonderful opportunity beforehand, it would have been so much better if they had chosen me."
"Jealous, next time we spar I'll have to hit his face hard with the flat of the blade."
...
In the midst of the lively chatter, the first short film about the 'Indigo Sword Cloak' was finished. Li Xun and his team then moved on to the 'Tikos Botanical Re
"Haha, Tilan is shy," laughter and the sound of chasing soon filled the activity room.
After completing the first three styles, the next one was 'Patrolling the Ghostly Night.' Since this short piece was set at night, it was scheduled to follow 'Twilight Melody.'
In the video, twelve figures dressed in black robes sat indoors with moonlight spilling down, they gathered around a giant stone table that resembled a clock face, and then, one by one, elements like the Crystal Ball, skeleton ornaments, wilted blue roses in a corner, scattered Divination Cards on the table, and so on, appeared, with no sound in the scene, one could tell that these members were using various rituals and methods to solve ancient puzzles, encountering spirits in old alleys, and eventually uncovering rust-corroded ancient books from some relic.
At the end of the scene, the member who had restored the ancient book placed it on a high shelf, then slowly removed the pitch-black cloak that had shrouded her figure, revealing the frost-colored garment adorned with raven-blue, exuding understated Elegance and mystery.
"This one was also shot very well, click-click, it will surely attract those who like the mystic style, who like to show off their erudition," Li Xu nodded in satisfaction.
"Then, it's time for our final closing video," she said and looked towards the stage where the unparalleled dancer stood ready in her new outfit, long golden hair adorned with true red ribbons, dressed in a fiery red gradient gown, like a dancing Flame.
The Goldfish Princess half-bent beside the stage, allowing the makeup artist below to draw her eyebrows, her fair and flawless back shimmering under the lights, dazzling to behold, and then she herself picked up a mirror to fill her lips with that captivating red.
Next, the camera moved, and the performance began, amidst the zealous applause of the opera house, she twirled in dance, with a cacophony of voices and a wave of colored lights below.
Then the camera slowly pulled away, the scene gradually becoming hazy until it shifted to the end of the performance.
The Goldfish Princess crossed her hands, bowing on the stage, then golden flowers fell, the curtain slowly closed, and the blackness filled the screen.
Afterwards, the camera re-emerged, showing the protagonist standing up from her bow; her dress had changed from the gorgeous gown to a light pink and fiery red 'Blazing Red Tip.' Compared to her enchanting stage presence, her off-stage beauty and charm were just as mesmerizing.
'Peach blossoms blooming bright, blazing with brilliance.'
The video's end featured words of Eastern poetry, continuing to add a hint of cultural atmosphere.
"Clap clap clap—" Applause erupted in the screening room, and everyone stood up, cheering for the perfect conclusion of the shoot.
"Efnie's dance was really beautiful, indeed there's a reason why she's known as the 'Flame Goldfish Princess.'"
"It's also because her Talent and looks are so great, even the members of the 'Hua Shan Opera' club don't mind her representing their performance,"
"After watching, I really want to buy several sets to collect, they seem like a good choice to give to friends too," the members said as they watched the familiar yet stunning figures in the video, feeling as if a treasure had always been by their side, yet they had never noticed before.
"Right, this one should be considered very good, right? I don't usually pay attention to fashion news, so I don't know where a promotional short film like this stands."
"Far from just good, it will definitely astound the industry," Li Xu patted the shoulder of the student in front of her, speaking with certainty, her face, watching the screen, radiated a passion and joy she'd never felt before.
Yes, this was the feeling, the indescribable and irrepressible sensation that made this work meaningful indeed.
