    Anyone here who is not
    following this animation?
[00:25] ---
    Welcome to the Songhai
    Spiritual Sword Art Assembly.
[00:29] ---
    "SWORD"
[00:32] ---
    Students from all the major
    factions in Songhai are invited
[00:34] ---
    to exhibit their unique sword skills.
[00:38] ---
    Log on to the webcast
    section of Bilibili,
[00:39] ---
    give your bullet comments,
[00:41] ---
    and you are eligible for
    a lucky draw for the prizes.
[00:43] ---
    Now let's have the five
    swordsmanship masters.
[00:47] ---
    Master No. 1 is the hero of Songhai,
    captain of the Seven-Star Squad,
[00:51] ---
    swordsmanship master Zhuo Yi.
[00:55] ---
    Then we have the highly experienced
    teacher of distinctions from Faction 59,
[00:58] ---
    Instructor Xie.
[01:02] ---
    The last two are the
    well-known sword dance team
[01:05] ---
    most popular in the cultivation section
    of Bilibili, Ling Yuan and Hanser.
[01:16] ---
    Sword cultivation in
    ancient times took power
[01:17] ---
    as the sole standard
    to rank spiritual swords.
[01:20] ---
    But in peacetime,
[01:22] ---
    we don't have to fight
    with our swords anymore.
[01:24] ---
    So, this program is not a
    contest of the power of swords,
[01:27] ---
    but an opportunity to find
    the art and beauty in swords.
[01:31] ---
    What's more,
    the organizer of this assembly
[01:32] ---
    has prepared handsome
    prizes for the viewers.
[01:35] ---
    The first prize is the ticket
    for a ride to Fort Skyloop.
[01:39] ---
    So, be interactive.
[01:42] ---
    All right, so much for
    the commercial break.
[01:44] ---
    Now let's have the first practitioner,
[01:46] ---
    someone who has been
    most talked about these days.
[01:48] ---
    The girl at the center of attention,
[01:49] ---
    the daughter of the Flower
    Fruit Water Curtain Group,
[01:51] ---
    Sun Rong.
[02:07] ---
    "Adapted from the story of the same
    title by author Ku Xuan from
    Chinese Qidian Website of Yuewen Group"

    A Sword Dance Of The Five Elements"
[03:49] ---
    Dear instructors,
[03:51] ---
    I am Sun Rong
    from Songhai Faction 60.
[03:54] ---
    Miss Bankruptcy,
[03:55] ---
    at the sword competition last year, quite
    a number of your swords were damaged.
[03:59] ---
    You even sacrificed your
    sword spirit in order to win.
[04:03] ---
    You are right.
[04:04] ---
    That's why I've been practicing
    very hard to improve my skills.
[04:07] ---
    The reason I come onto this stage
    is to have the dear instructors
[04:09] ---
    give me some enlightenment
    on my sword skills
[04:11] ---
    so that I can challenge myself.
[04:12] ---
    Good. Very spirited.
[04:14] ---
    What are you going to show us?
[04:16] ---
    The Sun's ancestral sword skill,
    Ocean Dance.
[04:32] ---
    This is...
[04:33] ---
    This is... a group
    dance of spiritual swords.
[04:35] ---
    She can control over
    a dozen spiritual swords
[04:38] ---
    to perform such an
    elegant sword dance.
[04:40] ---
    The Sun's ancestral sword
    skill deserves its fame.
[04:43] ---
    It does have something special.
[05:13] ---
    Look out!
[05:24] ---
    Are you all right, Kang?
[05:26] ---
    I was so scared.
[05:31] ---
    Miss Sun, it is dangerous to try
    to control so many swords at a time.
[05:34] ---
    Please do what you can manage.
[05:37] ---
    Is that all she's got?
[05:39] ---
    That was embarrassing.
[05:42] ---
    Typical of the Sun's.
[05:43] ---
    Is that it?
[05:45] ---
    "SWORD"
    We appreciate the show
    that Miss Sun presented,
[05:46] ---
    "SWORD"
    
    although there was a little accident.
[05:48] ---
    Let's go on with the webcast
    and have our next performers.
[05:52] ---
    --My 5-year-old niece would've
    played better than she did.
    --Are you all right, Sister Sun?
[05:56] ---
    I'm very sorry that
    was a faulty performance.
[05:59] ---
    Without my sword spirit,
[06:01] ---
    I can't achieve anything.
[06:03] ---
    Sister Sun,
[06:05] ---
    why don't you bring your
    sword to my shop tomorrow?
[06:06] ---
    I'll calibrate it for you.
[06:10] ---
    Thank you.
[06:12] ---
    That was not your fault.
[06:18] ---
    It happened so fast that
    I failed to cut to commercials.
[06:19] ---
    Operation team, post a
    blog message to say sorry.
[06:21] ---
    Wait a minute.
[06:22] ---
    After the accident, the ratings of
    the webcast have been rising.
[06:24] ---
    "Spiritual Energy Index"
    After the accident, the ratings of
    the webcast have been rising.
[06:26] ---
    What?
[06:28] ---
    I had thought nobody would
    want to watch programs of arts.
[06:30] ---
    The Spiritual Energy Index is soaring.
[06:33] ---
    "Spiritual Energy Index"
[06:34] ---
    "Spiritual Energy Index"
    That was a blessing in disguise.
[06:36] ---
    Go on with the webcast. Go on.
[06:42] ---
    Foolish mankind.
[06:48] ---
    Biased points of view.
[06:49] ---
    Doesn't deserve its fame.
    Attempted murder is arrestable.
[06:53] ---
    --You'll all be finished.
    Miss Sun is the best.
    --We appreciate the show
    that Miss Sun presented,
[06:56] ---
    although there was a little accident.
[06:58] ---
    Let's go on with the webcast
[06:59] ---
    and have our next performers,
    also from Faction 60, an elite duo.
[07:12] ---
    "Chen Chao" "Guo Hao"
[07:14] ---
    May I ask you, sword practitioners,
    why you come onto this stage?
[07:17] ---
    Do you want to challenge
    yourselves as well?
[07:19] ---
    No, we just want to present a little show.
[07:24] ---
    We have a fellow practitioner
[07:27] ---
    who has run into great
    difficulties in her life.
[07:29] ---
    She always tries to
    put on a smiling face,
[07:31] ---
    but we know what kind of
    pressure she is really under.
[07:38] ---
    We are sorry we cannot help
    you overcome the difficulties.
[07:41] ---
    What we can do is bring
    you this little show.
[07:43] ---
    We hope you are truly happy every day.
[07:45] ---
    It is so nice to have friends like you.
[07:47] ---
    What are you going to show us?
[07:50] ---
    You must have heard of snatching
    a sharp blade with bare hand.
[07:52] ---
    But snatching a blade
    is of very low difficulty.
[07:55] ---
    What I'm going to show you today is
    snatching a sword with bare hand.
[08:00] ---
    It is the year 4396 already,
[08:02] ---
    and you are still playing
    this tired old trick?
[08:05] ---
    I'm not going to simply
    snatch a sword with bare hand.
[08:07] ---
    I'm going to do that blindfolded.
[08:17] ---
    --Are you kidding me?
    --Go for it.
[08:21] ---
    This golden spiritual body
    is a buddha-like sword spirit.
[08:24] ---
    He can't summon
    a complete sword spirit.
[08:27] ---
    Just two arms of it.
    What is there to show off?
[08:30] ---
    Are you ready, Chen Chao?
[08:57] ---
    Dear instructors and viewers,
[08:59] ---
    that was Chen Chao's
    demonstration of his Iron Head.
[09:05] ---
    Brother Chen Chao's
    Iron Head is so powerful.
[09:09] ---
    "thick guys' weird behaviors
    snatching a sharp blade
    with bare hand turned iron head"
[09:17] ---
    What's going on?
[09:18] ---
    The number of online viewers
    has gone over one million.
[09:20] ---
    The Spiritual Energy Index
    has broken the platform record.
[09:24] ---
    A little more,
[09:25] ---
    and I'll have collected
    enough spiritual energy.
[09:31] ---
    We appreciate the surprise show
    that the elite duo presented.
[09:34] ---
    Now let's have our next performer,
[09:36] ---
    Yisha Bei from Songhai Faction 59.
[09:53] ---
    This is a sword formation.
[09:54] ---
    These hundreds,
[09:56] ---
    no, thousands of flying swords
[09:58] ---
    are all under micro control.
[10:00] ---
    This is a time of scientific cultivation.
[10:03] ---
    Enhanced with body control systems,
    it is not a problem anymore
[10:05] ---
    to control thousands of
    spiritual swords simultaneously.
[10:08] ---
    Time has changed.
[10:10] ---
    If you practice flying
    sword skills in the old way,
[10:12] ---
    controlling tens of swords
    would have hit the upper limit.
[10:16] ---
    We are back, Sister Sun.
[10:20] ---
    Chen Chao...
[10:21] ---
    Is he alive?
[10:23] ---
    Don't worry.
    The doctor has checked him out.
[10:25] ---
    He is alive.
[10:26] ---
    Thank you all.
[10:27] ---
    I was...
[10:29] ---
    Don't be stupid.
[10:30] ---
    Are you in a better
    frame of mind now?
[10:35] ---
    Where is Wang Ling and Xiaoyu?
[10:38] ---
    We appreciate the fabulous show that Yisha
    Bei of Songhai Faction 59 brought us.
[10:42] ---
    Now the last performer of the day,
[10:45] ---
    from Faction 60, Lin Xiaoyu.
[10:56] ---
    She is... Lin Xiaoyu?
[11:01] ---
    Sister Lin without
    her glasses is so beautiful.
[11:05] ---
    What a beauty!
[11:13] ---
    She's killing me.
[11:16] ---
    Beautiful.
[11:18] ---
    I like her.
[11:21] ---
    I love this goddess.
[11:51] ---
    This girl is lovely.
[11:53] ---
    --I like her so much.
    --Who is this Lin?
[12:06] ---
    Five hundred million
    viewers online now.
[12:08] ---
    A record high in human history.
[12:12] ---
    Now, begins my plan.
[12:35] ---
    The tree burns so brightly.
[12:38] ---
    Something is not right.
    Sister Lin is circling around again.
[12:51] ---
    No.
[13:44] ---
    Using skills of the wood
    element to alter the setting
[13:47] ---
    and create dreamy stage effects.
[13:48] ---
    Then burn it all.
[13:51] ---
    New vitality is
    generated after the fire.
[13:53] ---
    A sword dance employing
    all the five elements.
[13:56] ---
    If I'm not mistaken,
[13:57] ---
    the sword dance must
    be Rebirth from Ashes.
[14:01] ---
    That's why she's a genius girl
    once in a thousand years.
[14:16] ---
    The most fabulous stage plan!
[14:18] ---
    "What just happened?"
    "I call it"
    "The Best"
[14:21] ---
    One billion. One billion.
[14:23] ---
    What just happened?
[14:29] ---
    Thanks to the
    contributions of all students,
[14:31] ---
    I have collected the 1 billion spiritual
    energy I need to power my magic.
[14:37] ---
    Watch my Ultimate Control.
[15:07] ---
    "Songhai Department Store"
[15:14] ---
    It took me great endeavors
[15:16] ---
    to collect one billion spiritual energy to
    trigger this world-class Ultimate Control.
[15:21] ---
    Now all human beings worldwide
    are puppets under my control.
[15:26] ---
    It is a shame that
    you are not able to hear
[15:31] ---
    such a genius scheme of mine.
[15:33] ---
    Excuse me.
[15:34] ---
    Who are you?
[15:36] ---
    How did the two of
    you escape my control?
[15:38] ---
    Because your magic formation
    has lost its effect.
[15:42] ---
    How?
[15:43] ---
    That's impossible.
[15:44] ---
    It's such a big formation.
[15:45] ---
    How can you possibly wreck it?
[15:47] ---
    I simply moved the position
    of the key 2 meters forward.
[15:53] ---
    "SUN"
[15:59] ---
    "SUN"
[16:06] ---
    Who the hell are you?
[16:07] ---
    How did you know my plan?
[16:11] ---
    Damn you.
[16:13] ---
    Now I have to do it the violent way.
[16:30] ---
    Thank you for saving me, mini-TV.
[16:31] ---
    Wait.
[16:32] ---
    Something is wrong with the mini-TV.
[16:50] ---
    Wait a minute.
[16:51] ---
    I can't release the Ultimate Control.
[16:54] ---
    It is not the Ultimate Control alone.
[16:57] ---
    It is mixed with demon spirit and
    has taken command of their senses.
[17:00] ---
    These people are not
    common puppets now.
[17:02] ---
    They are...
[17:04] ---
    ...self-moving evil dummies.
