About Other Characters
This part is about what Yanqing thinks about the other characters in Honkai: Star Rail.
The general has no need to show his martial prowess with me around. Since he acknowledges my strength, I need to help shoulder his burdens that much more!
I heard that Miss Yunli was a great swordmaster, so I thought she'd be a good sparring partner, but... she's always eyeing my sword, so I better be careful.
I used to think there was only one way to become a true swordmaster... but General, Jingliu, and even myself... we all ended up on different paths.
When I fought Dan Heng, his spear mastery was almost perfect... but he was completely detached from it as an art. Maybe for him it's just a means to an end?
He can detect any swing of the sword before it lands... Would I be able to defeat him with my swordplay alone?
Tingyun would ask me to write introductory pieces for blades when her Codex on Goods contains a section on them.
I visited the Sky-Faring Commission once and saw Madam Yukong staring alone at the leather target for a long time. She didn't fire a single arrow that day, but perhaps she did shoot thousands in her mind.
Sushang has a good sword, but a good sword is not always an easy-to-use sword. One needs to apply ten times more power to make it perform just one-tenth better.
So, Diviner Fu wants to be the general... Well, firstly, she needs to fix the issue where everyone just wants to nap as soon as she starts to talk.
At first, I thought he always fights using that sword casket. That thing looks really strange... I need to figure out a way to fight him and get him to use his skills for real...
I remember her... One time she was carrying a beautiful sword, so I thought I'd strike up a conversation. But then she swallowed the sword down her throat! To this day I still haven't figured out which sword-fighting style that technique is from...
I always take Doctor Jiaoqiu's sensational stories with a grain of salt... Some people like to call him a weirdo, but the truth is he's experienced a lot of things that I couldn't even imagine...
I learned a very important lesson from General Feixiao: Before taking action, be like a rock and wait for the enemy to move first. While taking action, be like lightning and move faster than anyone else. After taking action, be like a fire and leave no hidden dangers untouched.
Even though I don't understand politics, I know that Cauldron Master Lingsha's job is quite difficult. The general also told me to do my best to assist her in re-organizing the Alchemy Commission.
