Codex Mystique Training Recommendations

Recommended Stats to Train

Stats to Raise for Qingque Escapade
Tenacity	Strength

For Codex Mystique, Tenacity should be your main priority, while Strength follows after. You'll also want to take advantage of Qingque's Assist Buffs that reduce Mood consumption and increase training efficiency.

Since Qingque's Assist Buffs will usually keep March 7th's Mood up, you're more free to choose options that give either Tenacity or Strength during Swordart Anecdotes. However, it's still important to pick up extra Mood if you need it.

Swordart Ascension and Sword Moves

First Trial	Swordart Ascension: August Elevation (12 Pts.) Sword Moves to Master: Molten Lapis Scorch Gust
Second Trial	Swordart Ascension: Gaze into Gnosis (33 Pts.) Sword Moves to Master: Blood Pearl Firetwirl Anvil Cutting Cold Inner Radiance Chilled Aroma
Final Trial	Swordart Ascension: Singular Ingenuity (56 Pts.) Sword Moves to Master: Maelstrom in Clouds Petals Adrift Fiery Deity Glacial Leaves Flakes of Rime

For your first run of Qingque's Escapade, it's recommended that you reach August Elevation for the First Trial, Gaze into Gnosis in the Second Trial, and Singular Ingenuity for the Final Trial.

Once you've unlocked all Tenacity Sword Moves, you can focus more on learning the remaining Strength Sword Moves.

Way of Primaveral Blade: Rhetoric Ending Guide

Seek Another Way with Qingque

After the Final Sword Trial, you'll be prompted to choose the story direction. Select Maybe there's another method we can use to get Qingque's ending.

Other Option Leads to March 7th's Ending

If you select the option to defeat him fair and square with your sword, you'll unlock March 7th's ending instead!

This also applies for all other Escapades. However, it's best to get this ending during Huohuo's Escapade so it's easier to win the battle.

Skott Negotiation Answers

1. Discuss his contributions and what he gets in return.
2. Question Skott's indispensability.
3. Imagine a better life.

At Aurum Alley, you'll need to negotiate with Skott instead of defeating him in battle. Activate Emotional Trigger from the Negotiation Strategy before choosing your answers to make Skott lose morale much faster!

Skott Debate Answer 1 in Qingque's Escapade

When Skott talks about the Talent Motivation Department in his first statement, select Discuss his contributions and what he gets in return.

Skott Debate Answer 2 in Qingque's Escapade

Skott will mention his involvement in the Aurum Alley investment project for his second statement. Select Question Skott's indispensability to refute it.

The debate will end here if you used Emotional Trigger for both the first and second statements. Afterwards, you'll unlock the Way of Primaveral Blade: Rhetoric story ending!

Skott Debate Answer 3 in Qingque's Escapade

If you weren't able to use Emotional Trigger or made a mistake in any of the earlier rounds, Skott will eventually talk about how he doesn't have a life of his own. Tell him to Imagine a better life to finally end the debate!
