A guide for the Wardance ceremony and the Skysplitter.
Xianzhou Luofu Wardance Guide
Foreword
Distinguished guests, welcome to the venue of this Luminary Wardance — The Skysplitter, floating above the delves of the Xianzhou Luofu.
As everyone knows, the Luminary Wardance is the traditional martial arts celebration of the Xianzhou Alliance. It was originally established to honor the Cloud Knights who guarded the Xianzhou ships and cleansed the plagues under the orders of Reignbow Arbiter. The Cloud Knights of Xianzhou worked diligently and competed in martial arts to honor those who had made sacrifices.
Over time, the vision for the Luminary Wardance far exceeded a mere tournament and celebration. It eventually evolved into an opportunity for bonding. The Wardance is an opportunity for us to bridge the distance across the universe and invite martial artists from different planets of the cosmos to share the stage, where they can display their fighting spirit and demonstrate the value of alliance.
Today, you will witness the participants' might and enjoy the sceneries around the Xianzhou.
Overview of the Tournament Venue
The venue of this Luminary Wardance is the Skysplitter. The Skysplitter was once an active fighter jet in service during the Third Denizens of Abundance War. Out of the combat starskiffs of similar tonnage, the Skysplitter has transported countless Cloud Knight heroes to the battlefield and provided low-altitude support for ground forces during the Battle of the Fanghu, the Assault of Sakin Chadu, the Insect Disaster of Karalik, and many other notable campaigns.
After receiving numerous accolades and amassing various scars throughout the years, the Skysplitter was decommissioned peacefully. Subsequently, the craftsmen of the Artisanship Commission removed its combat armor, and it was now ready to welcome guests with a completely new look. In the months it took to modify and renovate it, the internal cabins of the Skysplitter were completely redesigned to suit various needs including being used by contestants for preparation, by the audience to watch the tournament, by the media for broadcasts, to welcome external guests, for food and entertainment, and even host various commercial events.
Tournament Area: Where Skill Meets Passion
The Viewing Zone and the Finals Zone are located on the massive open-air deck at the center of the Skysplitter. What used to be internal cabins and the lower deck have been remodeled and now serve as the Preliminary Zones. This allows the spectators to get up close and personal to experience the thrill of battle.
In the Preliminary Zones, there is an internal ring road on the bottom level, a landing pad, and multiple functional rooms. The area is also equipped with medical rooms, training rooms, rest areas, and recreational areas to allow competitors the opportunity to properly train and rest in between their matches.
Viewing and Leisure: Enjoying Every Moment
The Viewing Zones located throughout the Skysplitter provide an unobstructed view of the tournament. They are also equipped with comfortable seats and real-time data analysis on the screens to ensure that spectators can understand what's going on in the matches as they enjoy the visual spectacle. There are also VIP rooms and Media Zones available to suit the business needs of different individuals.
The Resting Zone and Dining Zone on the Skysplitter serve specialty delicacies from all over the cosmos. There is also Luofu cuisine provided by multiple dining establishments from areas such as Aurum Alley and Exalting Sanctum, building an ideal place to relax and socialize after enjoying the matches.
During the tournament, special events such as cultural exchange sessions and contestant meet-and-greets will also be organized on the Skysplitter. For more details, please refer to the official announcements.
Exploring the Ship: Echoes of History
Experience the history of the Luofu's Sky-Faring Commission as well as the life of the Skysplitter — from its construction to its deployment, up until it was decommissioned and repurposed — through holographic images and physical exhibits by stepping into the History Gallery located at the bow of the ship. Let us witness how new legends are forged in this vast sea of stars together.
Even though the command center no longer serves the role of a military command center, the original control panels and strategic astral charts have still been retained. This allows visiting tourists to immerse themselves and take on the role of captain of the ship, and experience what it's like to take part in strategic planning.
Opening Hours
The tournament takes place between 04:00 to 16:00 system time each day. During this period, the Viewing Zone will be open to visitors. For special events and the evening light shows, please refer to the official announcements.
