The journey of film and television world is endless

Given Liu Yuan's current status, he wasn't high enough to mingle with the upper nobility, so he was unaware of the Smiling Tree Knight and the King's affairs. However, on his way back to his residence, he passed by the Godswood and saw Lyanna looking dejected. A black-haired young man was with her, not one of the Stark brothers, seemingly trying to curry favor with her. But even Liu Yuan could tell that Lyanna was indifferent.

Liu Yuan quickly detoured, wondering if these nobles would take their unhappiness out on him. He went in another direction, intending to pass through the Godswood. But before he had gone far, he ran into Eddard Stark. The girl he was kissing was Ashara Dayne. Unexpectedly, this taciturn Eddard was quite the operator; it had only been a few days! And he had already charmed the most beautiful girl. They seemed too engrossed to notice Liu Yuan.

Alright! Liu Yuan continued to tiptoe away, avoiding disturbing them. After a large detour, he was about to leave the Godswood when he heard a series of heavy breaths from a man and a woman ahead. He recognized both of them: the man was Brandon Stark, and the woman was Barbrey Ryswell, the daughter of a lord from the Northern Riverlands. Liu Yuan's face instantly darkened. What was going on? Was it really this difficult to get home?

The morning sun streamed through the window, and Liu Yuan woke up, stretching his limbs. Ever since he had been blocked several times by those amorous couples the night before, he had stopped going near the Godswood.

The short sword he had obtained from the bottom of the lake, according to Old Parker's explanation, was actually forged from the famous Valyrian steel. Unlike the magical metal mithril, it possessed unique power and properties. Valyrian steel was a man-made alloy, made special by special forging techniques and the application of magical spells.

Valyrian craftsmen repeatedly forged the steel to balance and remove impurities, then applied spells or other unknown substances to give the steel extraordinary qualities. Valyrian steel was light, hard, and sharper than any other steel. Its function and structure were similar to Damascus steel, with its own beautiful water-like patterns.

The crafting process for Valyrian steel alloy was lost after the Doom of Valyria. Therefore, existing Valyrian steel swords were extremely precious and rare. Nowadays, only the master craftsmen of Qohor possessed the technique to reforge Valyrian steel. Old Parker had once traveled across the Narrow Sea to Qohor to learn this skill. However, the Qohorik strictly guarded the secrets of the reforging technique, and anyone who pried into these secrets would be punished. In the end, Old Parker returned empty-handed, but rumor had it that the scholars of the Citadel had discovered that Qohorik craftsmen secretly performed blood sacrifices, killing slaves to create weapons comparable to those of the Freehold.

In Westeros, most of the existing Valyrian steel swords were kept in the hands of long-established noble families, and almost every one had its own name and story. For example, the Stark family's 'Ice,' the Mormont family's ancestral sword 'Longclaw,' and the Targaryen family's ancestral sword 'Blackfyre'.

The entire continent of Westeros had only about two hundred Valyrian steel weapons. This was far from enough to satisfy all the lords who desired a Valyrian steel weapon. Lord Tywin had repeatedly approached impoverished families in the Seven Kingdoms, offering large sums of money to buy their Valyrian steel swords to replace the Lannister family's ancestral sword 'Brightroar,' but had been repeatedly rejected.

Great, another thing that can't be exposed. Fortunately, no one knew that Liu Yuan possessed a Valyrian steel weapon. He took the blade off, re-polished it, and installed it in the gun barrel to make a 'sword in a staff,' a weapon for close combat. He wouldn't reveal it unless absolutely necessary.

Since the encounter at the God's Eye, Prince Rhaegar returned with the Smiling Tree Knight's shield. He was like he had a cheat mode turned on, repeatedly defeating opponents and advancing all the way.

The competition was very intense, with many established knights joining the fray, such as Ser Gerold Hightower, the Lord Commander of the Kingsguard, Ser Oswell Whent, Lord Robert Baratheon, Ser Rickard Lonmouth, Lord Jon Hunter, Ser Wills Tyrell, Eddard Stark, Lord Jon Connington, Ser Jonothor Darry, Prince Lewyn Martell, and Prince Oberyn Martell, all of whom were eliminated along the way.

Today, as the final day of the finals, 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, making his legs weak.

Next, Prince Rhaegar defeated Ser Arthur Dayne of the Kingsguard. Liu Yuan felt that he was clearly throwing the match. The final was Prince Rhaegar Targaryen against Ser Barristan Selmy. Prince Rhaegar's gentle voice came from inside his dragon-shaped helm: "Ser Barristan, although I know I am not as strong as you, especially after your performance at the Storm's End tourney, I am honored to fight you."

Barristan also said modestly: "Hahaha, Prince Rhaegar, you jest. We have had wins and losses against each other in King's Landing and Storm's End. Your skills are superb, and I do not think I have absolute certainty of defeating you."

"Thank you for your affirmation, Ser Barristan, then here I come." As soon as he finished speaking, Rhaegar spurred his horse forward, and Barristan also charged.

"Clang!" Splintered wood flew as the two lances shattered upon impact, the first round ending in a draw. The two turned their horses around. At this point, mutual probing was meaningless. Barristan's acting was much better than Arthur's. The two fought for a full twenty-five rounds, destroying more than forty lances.

Finally, he exposed a small flaw and was unhorsed by Prince Rhaegar. Rhaegar fought this battle with great enthusiasm, and even the audience enjoyed it immensely.

"Hooray! Rhaegar! Rhaegar! Rhaegar! Rhaegar!"

"Long live Prince Rhaegar! Rhaegar! Rhaegar!"

……………………

A roar of cheers soared into the sky at the moment of Rhaegar's victory. Even the mad Aerys II smiled at this moment; this was his son, and also the glory of the Targaryen family.

Prince Rhaegar raised his lance and rode around the field, welcoming the cheers of the crowd. Then, in the spotlight, he used his lance to lift the winter rose wreath, which was also the queen's crown symbolizing love and beauty.

Rhaegar scanned the surroundings, then rode his horse to the stands. Princess Elia Martell, Rhaegar's wife, was sitting there, and she smiled brightly as Rhaegar approached.

Prince Rhaegar's gaze passed over Elia and landed on Lyanna. He didn't know why, but his heart was agitated, and his mind was filled with the girl's pretty figure. Rhaegar's horse did not stop; he passed by his wife, and Elia's smile instantly froze.

Miss Whent, who was not far from her, was excited. This tournament was held in her name, and she was also qualified to receive the queen's crown symbolizing love and beauty.
