Reborn in the Hong Kong entertainment industry in the 1980s

Ye Zhini was able to stand out among a group of applicants because she could cook various kinds of chicken and make soup.

"Don't worry, I'll never miss out on soup." With that, Hu Xiaoxiao walked towards the alley.

At the entrance of Zhanzi Alley, she first observed the positions of several cameras, and then went to talk to the cameraman.

The alley in front of them was specifically built for filming alley scenes, hence the dedicated camera positions. Hu Xiaoxiao began to visualize the scene in her mind, how the characters would move within the camera's lens, and how to ensure the cameraman could quickly capture the perfect shot.

Once everything was ready, Hu Xiaoxiao rode a rickshaw into the alley after the director yelled "Action."

The alley at night was dimly lit and eerily quiet.

Xu Guangman and Zeng Xuelin suddenly jumped down from the wall, wielding their knives and slashing down at Hu Xiaoxiao's head with great momentum and murderous intent.

Even though he knew it was a movie shoot, the rickshaw puller was still startled and forgot about the rest of his performance.

Hu Xiaoxiao jumped off the rickshaw and, with a smooth and natural motion, pulled and pushed the actor playing the rickshaw driver out of the frame.

The actor playing the rickshaw driver scrambled away, and only after standing next to the director did he look around the filming set with lingering fear. When those two men came down with their weapons, he genuinely thought he was going to die. It was truly terrifying; in all his years as an extra, he had never filmed such a brutal scene.

In the alley, Hu Xiaoxiao and Zeng Xuelin were engaged in a fierce fight.

In a narrow alley, two assassins with knives stand guard while Hu Xiaoxiao, unarmed, displays incredible skill in dodging attacks.

This alleyway chase scene kept the cameramen on edge for every shot, almost forgetting to breathe, their entire focus on capturing Hu Xiaoxiao's figure. She was too fast, and the assassin's knife was just as quick; if the cameramen relaxed their attention even slightly, they would fall behind.

Gao Zhiyuan also personally directed the filming, constantly capturing every extremely dangerous shot. He believed that every shot he was filming would become a classic, capturing the killer's ruthless movements, the cruelty in his eyes, and Hu Xiaoxiao's agile and highly entertaining skills.

After getting used to Xu Guangman and Zeng Xuelin's playing styles, Hu Xiaoxiao began to study their weaknesses.

Xu Guangman's swordsmanship was wide and powerful. From the momentum of his sword strikes, Hu Xiaoxiao realized that this was not the kind of power a prop sword could produce; there was something wrong with the prop.

While dealing with them, Hu Xiaoxiao observed their fighting styles. Compared to Xu Guangman's open and powerful attacks, Zeng Xuelin's swordsmanship was much more insidious, extremely cunning, fast, and ruthless.

Both men's swordsmanship was disciplined and their basic skills were solid, indicating that they must have been trained by a prestigious school from a young age.

Hu Xiaoxiao has a wide range of martial arts skills, having learned many different styles to broaden her acting range. She possesses a good memory, high comprehension, and excellent physique, so despite being a latecomer to martial arts, she has already mastered various styles without a formal teacher. Furthermore, her extraordinary abilities make her reflexes and quick thinking far superior to ordinary people.

Therefore, even when facing two professional assassins, Hu Xiaoxiao handled them with ease, making them fight at her pace and maintaining control of the entire situation.

Xu Guangman and Zeng Xuelin also realized they had underestimated Hu Xiaoxiao. They exchanged a glance and changed their strategy, switching from a two-on-one assault to one person launching the main attack while the other launched a sneak attack.

Xu Guangman launched a fierce attack, his swordsmanship becoming even more ruthless, his momentum like a mountain pressing down. Zeng Xuelin's swordsmanship was already cunning, and after taking the sneak attack route, he was like a venomous snake emerging from its hole, making him impossible to defend against.

Hu Xiaoxiao quickly made a decision: she would stop dodging and start shooting. The photographers had already taken enough of those dangerous shots of her dodging, and she could fight back.

Hu Xiaoxiao's first priority is to deal with Zeng Xuelin. This man is too insidious and cunning, and his attack methods are extremely shameless. Moreover, he is faster and more agile than Xu Guangman. Once he is dealt with, Xu Guangman will be no threat.

Hu Xiaoxiao deliberately used the method of pulling a kite to separate the two, and then, before Xu Guangman could catch up, she suddenly grabbed Zeng Xuelin's knife.

Zeng Xuelin made the same mistake as Yu Cong: he looked down on women and thought that men could easily defeat women with their strength. When Hu Xiaoxiao came to grab the knife, instead of trying to avoid her, he wanted to compete with Hu Xiaoxiao in strength.

As expected, the knife ended up in Hu Xiaoxiao's hands.

The moment the knife touched his hand, Hu Xiaoxiao knew it was also made of hardwood. The wood was as hard as steel and felt heavy, likely made of ironwood, which even an axe could hardly cut. The thickest part of the blade was nearly ten centimeters long; if the blade were used to strike someone, it would be no different from being hit by an iron rod, with immense destructive power.

very good!

This is exactly the knife she wanted!

Hu Xiaoxiao gripped the knife with both hands, her stance stable, and slashed at Zeng Xuelin with wide, powerful strokes, fast and fierce, with tremendous force.

Zeng Xuelin tried to dodge, but it was too late. He was not as fast as Hu Xiaoxiao, and Hu Xiaoxiao's counterattack was faster than his evasive maneuvers.

He dodged the first blow, but the second one struck his shoulder with a crack, breaking the bone in his shoulder with the wooden sword.

Because a wooden knife was used, the bone broke but the skin didn't crack, and no blood was seen coming out, but the bone inside was pulverized.

Zeng Xuelin felt a sharp pain and his vision went black. He saw Hu Xiaoxiao's knife sweeping across his neck, and he was so terrified that he leaned back.

Xu Guangman caught up from behind, wielding his knife to save Zeng Xuelin. Zeng Xuelin quickly retreated a few steps and reorganized his attack.

Hu Xiaoxiao and Xu Guangman have already clashed. Both of them are using wide and sweeping sword techniques, which are fierce and violent. Their swords collided with a series of bangs. Although they were using wooden swords, they were wielding the force of real swords.

Hu Xiaoxiao's strength increased, and Xu Guangman's wrists began to ache from the force of the blows. Zeng Xuelin came to assist, but without a knife and unable to move one hand, his legwork was fierce, attacking Hu Xiaoxiao from the side.

Hu Xiaoxiao used 80% of her strength to cleave Xu Guangman back more than ten steps with a single strike. Then, she turned her blade and chopped down at Zeng Xuelin's kicking leg.

There was a click.

Zeng Xuelin's leg is broken!

Then Hu Xiaoxiao changed the angle of the knife in her hand, and slapped the back of the blade towards Zeng Xuelin's head.

Even though Hu Xiaoxiao held back her strength out of consideration for Ji Sheng and didn't kill Zeng Xuelin with one blow, Zeng Xuelin's head was still bleeding profusely, and he involuntarily fell to the ground, motionless.

Upon seeing this, Xu Guangman was filled with anger and humiliation. He roared loudly and charged at Hu Xiaoxiao with his knife, disregarding his own life.

Hu Xiaoxiao's eyes turned cold. She found the best spot for filming and exchanged more than twenty blows with Xu Guangman. The blows were so intense that the photographer was having a great time taking pictures. Then, she struck Xu Guangman's wooden sword with her own sword. With a bang, Xu Guangman's sword was broken in two.

Even an axe couldn't cut through the ironwood, but Hu Xiaoxiao managed to chop it down!
