Reach the statue courtyard

Community-reported

From Covered Bridge, follow the upper village route to Statue Grounds Entrance. Ring the bell, then climb the stone stairs through the gate into the statue-lined courtyard. All Things How reports that Bi Yuan attacks on entry, so finish equipment and healing decisions outside.

Prepare for repeated sword exchanges

Editorial guidance

Use a weapon whose defensive inputs you can repeat. Keep enough resources for a missed defense and make the first attempt about recognizing the complete sword chain. A recording’s damage output does not establish the equipment you need.

Read the chain and the sideways reset

Community-reported

All Things How distinguishes the close sword chain from the sidestep lunge and larger teal attacks. Its examples use particular Pathbreaker and Wayfarer setups; no damage or timing threshold is adopted here.

Move laterally and read each incoming blade.
Opening to look for
Once the incoming group clears.

Healing while another arc is still approaching.

Compare one player’s close spacing

Community-reported

The excerpt below shows the courtyard and a close exchange. Use it to recognize distance and follow-through. Its player’s retaliation is not a required build or a guaranteed punish on another difficulty.

The player exchanges attacks with the green-robed swordsman in the statue courtyard. This illustrates close spacing and a continuing exchange; it does not establish a perfect parry window.

Collect the sword and use the new bell

Community-reported

PowerPyx lists Tianxuan Bronze Sword as the reward. Interact with the crane bell in the arena, identified as The Lady Grounds, for the Young Mistress headband step. Check the quest record before leaving. Continue through the houses toward Smuggler’s Treasure Cellar.

  1. Check the headband collection

    The arena interaction is one of five landmarks.
