Chapter 264: 100 Versailles Yan Lu, exclusively favors _1



Let alone spear techniques, they can’t even lift the longer weapons.

Being able to wield a long spear is considered a skill.

And the Bai Family’s army is most famous for its charging spear technique, not to mention actors, even the martial arts directors of “Great Yong” can’t properly use the charging spear unless they go to traditional schools to find those old folk artists.

If the casting isn’t done well, not only will the audience not buy it, but it will also affect the overall quality of the show.

They are not filming a web series, but a proper traditional drama.

What they need is a Bai Xiangjun that fits more closely with history, not one that relies solely on stunt doubles.

Man Xi, who can act decently and also handle a spear, thus became the director’s first choice.

But no one expected…

Yan Lu could wield a charging spear?

“Where’s the long spear?” After the director paused for a moment, he immediately instructed the crew, “Give her the long spear.”

There weren’t many people left at the audition, aside from Man Xi nobody had specifically learned the long spear, and the crew had already put the spear away.

Now, they hastily brought out the long spear.

The spear used for the audition on set was brown and longer than the spear Yan Lu was accustomed to, yet a bit lighter. She reached out to grasp the shaft of the spear, closed her eyes slightly, and remembered the teachings of Bai Lian that day.

And her practice over the past nearly twenty days.

Just by holding it, the director and everyone on set felt something subtle—

The modern circular hall seemed to recede at an accelerated pace; the wooden floor tiles beneath their feet gradually got covered by sand, and the surrounding walls turned into thousands of soldiers and horses, into towering loess mountains…

Yan Lu lifted her head, her eyes suddenly snapping open.

With her left hand supporting the spear and the right hand gripping it, she flipped her wrist upwards and pushed down with her left hand to thrust the spear!

The flexibility of the spear transmitted the force from the base to the tip, and everyone on set could see the front half of the spear vibrantly shaking!

The director and assistant director, who had the clearest view, stood up straight from their benches, eyes fixed on the quivering long spear, with only Yan Lu and her spear in their sights.

But that wasn’t all.

Yan Lu stamped the ground and turned her stride, as Bai Lian once said that her martial arts weren’t orthodox, so she could rely on technique without needing a very strong physical condition.

Her right hand was still at one-third of the spear’s length; with her left hand pressing down on the butt, she combined the force of her waist with her horse stance before the vibrations of the spear had ceased, and fiercely reversed the direction of the spear to thrust backwards!

Her body hadn’t turned, but a hint of cold light arrived first!

The tip of the spear, adorned with a ten-centimeter-long red tassel, fluttered slightly with the tremble of the shaft.

In the audition hall, there was no other sound, just a shadow cast on the wall, holding a long spear—the silhouette as if blended into the wall itself, harmonizing with Xiangcheng into a picturesque scene!

Yan Lu’s eyes were fixed on the tassel, she breathed slightly hard, her cheeks flushed, and the intensity in her eyes slowly receded.

Gradually withdrawing the spear, she calmed her state and looked up at the director with her lips pursed, expressionless, “I haven’t mastered it yet; this is all I have for now.”

The director and the others finally came back to their senses.

If they thought Man Xi was very good, her performance excellent, then for Yan Lu’s charging spear, they could only describe it with two words

Astonishing!

Because everyone present would think of those lines: Dressed in bright armor and riding spiritedly as a youth, a woman who never admitted defeat to men

Iron armor and a charging spear with a flowing pennant!

“Ah?” The director looked at Yan Lu’s expressionless face, momentarily unsure if she was being modest or joking, “Not mastered yet?”

This is called not mastered?

“Far from it,” Yan Lu was clear about her goal, to fully learn everything Bai Lian had taught her, “Director Wan, I will work hard and study diligently.”

She had held the spear for twenty days, each practice focusing on steady aim; although not perfect, she had gained some insights.

Every move Bai Lian made was a feint and changed constantly; each spear thrust created a breeze, and when exerting force, she stood as firm as a stake, combining strength and skill.

The more she learned, the more Yan Lu understood that she was merely scratching the surface of the art.

Her moves, compared to Bai Lian’s, were essentially for show; faced with her, Bai Lian wouldn’t even need to move; the vibrating long spear could directly knock her weapon away.

Director Wan Qiushan:

Wan Qiushan had directed many martial arts TV dramas, and he had only seen this level of performance in those action actors with real skills; the younger generation were mostly idols, and someone with real martial arts skills like Yan Lu was virtually unseen.

Seeing Yan Lu like this, as if she still needed to study hard, wasn’t she—

Aiming to become a grandmaster?

That was what he thought, but Wan Qiushan straightened his expression and carefully observed Yan Lu; from the moment she walked in, her movements had naturally carried a bit of “Great Yong” temperament.

She wasn’t short either, 169.
