Saga of Primaveral Blade/Story

The Wardance ceremony is approaching, and March 7th has been invited to become Yanqing and Yunli's apprentice in swordplay. As her assistant, you will plan Swordplay Sessions to help her achieve the victory in the eventual duel with swordplay.

March 7th officially starts the journey to learn the art of sword from Yanqing and Yunli and even has a specific goal: "Defeat Skott after 15 days."
She's short on time and has a large study load. Thank goodness there is a teaching assistant like you who can help March 7th schedule her time... Whatever shall she do without you?

March defeats Skott fair and square using the sword skills she learned herself. At the end of the duel, even Skott must admit that March really has some tricks — uhhh, some swords — up her sleeves.

March 7th's swordplay improves significantly thanks to Huohuo's help... Tail raises the point of completely changing Skott's mind. In the end, Skott became a true "lone wolf."
This counted as a change of heart, too. March 7th won without a fight.

March 7th's swordplay improves significantly thanks to Qingque's help... Qingque wanted to have a chat with Skott before the duel. After the chat, Skott completely lost all of his fighting will.
There wasn't even a martial duel of any kind. It was a complete victory in peace.

March 7th's swordplay improves significantly thanks to Jiaoqiu's help... Jiaoqiu's offering of potent Yaoqing medicines reduced Skott's capacities significantly in the final duel.
That was indeed an underhanded tactic. Hopefully, that didn't leave Skott with too much trauma.

March 7th's swordplay improves significantly thanks to Silver Wolf's help... Silver Wolf gave Prome to March 7th and March 7th was able to directly control the IPC mech.
Judging from the outcome, March 7th indeed won against Skott. It just had nothing to do with swordplay.
