The journey of the film and television world is endless [continued]

The morning sun shone through the window, and Liu Yuan woke up and stretched his limbs. Since he was blocked several times by the mandarin ducks in the Yihe River the night before, he no longer went to the Shenmu Forest.

The short sword obtained from the bottom of the lake, after the explanation of Old Parker, turned out to be forged from the famous Valyrian steel. Different from the magical metal Mithril, it has unique power and properties. Valyrian steel is not a man-made alloy, but it is made special by special forging technology and magic spells.

Valyria's craftsmen repeatedly forge to balance and remove impurities from the steel, and then apply spells or other unknown substances to give the steel extraordinary properties. Valyria steel is light and hard, sharper than any other steel, and its function and structure are similar to Damascus steel, with beautiful wavy patterns.

The craftsmanship of reforging Valyrian steel was lost after the catastrophe of Old Valyria. Therefore, the existing Valyrian steel swords are extremely precious and rare. Today, only the master craftsmen of Qohor have mastered the technology of reforging Valyrian steel. Old Puck once crossed the narrow sea to Qohor to learn this skill. However, the people of Qohor strictly protect the secrets of reforging technology, and anyone who spy on these secrets will be punished. In the end, Old Puck returned empty-handed, but it is rumored that the maesters of the Citadel have discovered that Qohor craftsmen secretly performed blood sacrifices, killing slaves in order to make weapons comparable to the craftsmanship of the Freehold.

Most of the existing Valyrian steel swords in Westeros are kept in the hands of long-standing noble families, and almost every one of them has its own name and story, such as the Stark family's "Ice", the Mormont family's ancestral sword "Long Claw", and the Targaryen family's ancestral sword "Blackfyre".

There are only about 200 Valyrian steel weapons in the entire Westeros continent. It is simply not enough to satisfy all the lords who are eager for a Valyrian steel weapon. Duke Tywin has repeatedly approached the impoverished families in the Seven Kingdoms and offered to buy their Valyrian steel swords to replace the Lannister family sword "Light Howl" with a large sum of money, but was repeatedly rejected.

Well, it was another thing that could not be seen in public. Fortunately, no one knew that Liu Yuan had a steel weapon. He removed the sword body, polished it again, and installed it in the gun barrel to become a "sword in a cane". It became a weapon for close combat, and he would not show it unless it was absolutely necessary.

------------

Ever since the encounter at the God's Eye Lake that day, when Prince Rhaegar brought back the shield of the Knight of the Laughing Tree, he had been like a cheat, defeating his opponents one after another and advancing all the way.

The competition was very fierce, and many famous knights joined the competition, such as Captain Gerold Hightower of the Kingsguard, Ser Oswell River, Lord Robert Baratheon, Ser Rickard Longmouth, Earl Ian Hunt, Ser Wills Tyrell, Eddard Stark, Lord Jon Connington, Ser Jon Darry, Prince Lewyn Martell, and Prince Oberyn Martell, all of whom were eliminated halfway through.

Today was the final day, and Prince Rhaegar defeated Brandon Stark. Brandon was very open-minded and generously admitted his defeat. Liu Yuan maliciously guessed that he lost because he had been fooling around with women too much and his legs were weak.

Next, Prince Rhaegar defeated Ser Arthur Dayne of the Kingsguard, and Liu Yuan felt that he had let the opponent win. The final match was between Prince Rhaegar Targaryen and Ser Barristan Selmy. Prince Rhaegar's gentle voice came from his dragon-headed pointed helmet: "Ser Barristan, although I feel that I am not as strong as you, especially after your performance at the tourney at Storm's End, I would be honored to fight you."

Barristan also said modestly: "Hahaha, Prince Rhaegar, you are joking. We have won and lost against each other in King's Landing and Storm's End. Your skills are superior, but I don't think I can defeat you with absolute certainty."

"Thank you for your confidence, Ser Barristan. Here I come." As soon as he finished speaking, Rhaegar rode forward, and Barristan also rode forward.

"Bang~" Wood chips flew everywhere, and the two lances were smashed into pieces. The first round was evenly matched. Both sides turned their horses around, and there was no point in testing each other at this time. Barristan's acting skills were much better than Arthur's. The two fought for a full twenty-five rounds, and more than forty competition lances were scrapped.

At last, a small flaw was exposed, and Prince Rhaegar seized the opportunity and shot him off his horse. Rhaegar fought very hard in this battle, and even the audience was very excited.

"Ooooooh! Rhaegar! Rhaegar! Rhaegar! Rhaegar!"

"Long live Prince Rhaegar! Rhaegar! Rhaegar!"

........................

Cheers that reached the sky rang out at the moment of Rhaegar's victory. Even the mad Aerys II smiled at this moment, for this was the glory of his son and the Targaryen family.

Prince Rhaegar held his lance high and rode his horse around the field, welcoming the cheers of the crowd. Then, in full view of everyone, he used his lance to pick up the wreath of winter roses, which was also the queen's crown symbolizing love and beauty.

Rhaegar glanced around and rode to the side of the stands. There sat Rhaegar's wife, Princess Elia Martell, who smiled brightly as she watched Rhaegar approach.

Prince Rhaegar's eyes passed Elia and fell on Lyanna. He didn't know why his heart was agitated, and at this moment, all he could think about was the pretty figure of the girl. Rhaegar's horse did not stop, he passed his wife, and Elia's smile froze for a moment.

Miss Hean, who was not far from her, was excited. This tournament was held in her name, and she was also qualified to get the queen's crown, which symbolized love and beauty. But before she could be happy for long, Rhaegar passed Miss Hean, and her smile froze.

Finally, Rhaegar stopped in front of the Stark family and gently placed the wreath on Lyanna's knees! Now the whole audience was smiling.

"Seven Gods above! What did Prince Rhaegar do?" This is the voice in everyone's heart.

"You..." Brandon Stark, who was beside Lyanna, tried to hold back his anger and question Prince Rhaegar on the spot. Eddard Stark calmly held his brother back, but he didn't look happy at all. This was his own sister, and also his best friend's fiancée.

At this time, Robert was chatting with Ian Hunt and Jon Arryn. Robert's face was not very good. He was already the successor of the Duke of Storm's End, so he couldn't get angry. He could only laugh: "I think Prince Rhaegar is just giving Lyanna the praise she deserves!" But only Robert's friends understood him. The humiliation Robert suffered made him and Rhaegar's feud with him from that moment on.

Barristan regretted that he should have defeated Prince Rhaegar in the final. Otherwise, he could have given the crown of love and beauty to his beloved Ashara Dayne, so as to avoid Prince Rhaegar's reckless behavior.
