==Dialogue==
;(First interaction)
:Cangxi: Hmm? A new face, another new participant from somewhere? You can count on this old veteran if you have any questions. I'll have you running off in no time... Ah, that's not right — I'll make you understand the ardor of the Skysplitter's tournament.
:Cangxi: Simply put, all newcomers will eventually hit a wall in this contest. I, Cangxi, am that wall.
: You're pretty smug, aren't you?
::Cangxi: I'm overly smug.
::Cangxi: Don't think I can't sense the sarcasm dripping from your words, not that I care. Smug is my middle name.
: Old veteran? Are you really that old?
::Cangxi: I've joined more competitions than you short-life species could ever experience in your lifetime.
: You think I'm here to participate in the tournament?
::Cangxi: I think you... look like an esteemed guest of the Seat of Divine Foresight. My apologies, I was too loud.
:Cangxi: I was told this once by someone: "Cangxi has never coveted the champion's title, only the crushing of newbies."
:Cangxi: I think that is a fair assessment. I may seem like a hobbyist contender, a compatriot among newcomers. But I have persevered in beating down newcomers for centuries. My beloved moniker by the community is "Newbie Killer"!
: It's not because you can't get ahead to the next level?
::Cangxi: You're gravely mistaken if you think that's the case. I'm not trying to be modest, but I could've advanced long ago with my skills. It's just that this is my comfort zone...
: Doesn't sound like anything good...
::Cangxi: You may not want to be the "Newbie Killer," but it's an awesome nickname to me!
:Cangxi: Of course, I have my reasons for doing this. Think about it: If you view the newcomer's phase as part of a contestant's entire career, isn't it like the adolescence in a person's life?
:Cangxi: When anyone is in their youth, they will undoubtedly run into trials and tribulations. Those experiences of regret and remorse will become beautiful memories in the distant future. Personally, spending your youth without regrets is the most regretful thing!
: The sorrow of youth shouldn't be used to bully the earnest!
::Cangxi: I don't know what you're talking about. I'm not bullying decent folk, I'm just bullying newcomers.
: You're not meant to leave behind regrets in your youth!
::Cangxi: They'll have nothing else but regret when they run into me.
: You make it sound so lofty, but you really just want to feel superior.
::Cangxi: Heh-heh, the look of creeping depression of a newcomer doubting their own ability... It's simply addicting!
:Cangxi: They have no one else to blame for their inferiority. Train harder if you're crap, and get lost if you can't handle loss.

;(Subsequent interactions)
:Cangxi: Train harder if you're crap, and get lost if you can't handle loss. Such is the cold, brutal truth of the Wardance!
: I have a few questions I wish to ask you...
::Cangxi: Don't try to dissuade me, I've got my own principles too. Aside from what we just spoke about, What else do you want to ask?
:: Where did you learn your martial arts?
:::Cangxi: I bet you don't know this: We Vidyadhara can be reborn from the Cyclicality. Even if we can't inherit our abilities from the previous cycle, we can still record what we've learned for the next cycle.
:::Cangxi: The previous "me" was a master martial artist. Before "I" was reborn, I would record all I learned in a journal, including the skill of exhalation, Qi suppression and unarmed combat moves.
:::Cangxi: I trained according to the instructions left behind by my previous self, and my martial arts inevitably improved. On the path of martial arts, I am someone who was born at the starting line. It's not considered cheating if I learn from myself, is it?
:: Any newcomers I should pay attention to?
:::Cangxi: To be honest, I did encounter a pretty troublesome newbie. I was defeated, and unable to leave any regrets for him. If I'm the Newbie Killer, that guy would probably be the "Veteran Slayer."
:::Cangxi: You heard of Luka, that outworlder fighter who challenged Lieutenant Yanqing?
::: I'm his coach.
::::Cangxi: No wonder, he had the aura of a champion on him.
::: I... don't think I do!
::::Cangxi: You can just say you don't know him.
:::Cangxi: Speaking of which, while the previous "me" was an exceptional martial artist, but according to my records, he encountered a red-haired outworlder contestant in the Wardance, I think his name was Igor?
:::Cangxi: That fellow was one-armed, replaced by a metallic prosthetic. The previous "me" was a strict observer of traditional martial etiquette, and wanted to take a photo first, but that outworlder was dishonorable.
:::Cangxi: When the match started, before the previous "me" could even get his pose ready, he was sent flying out of the ring by a vicious uppercut. Because of this, the previous "me" died with a heart full of regret.
:::Cangxi: Hang on... Red-haired, one-armed, prosthetic... we couldn't have run into the metaphorical "blade" of a demigod, could we?
:: Have you any insights on fighting newcomers?
:::Cangxi: Hahaha, great question!
:::Cangxi: Find out about your opponent's weaknesses and make the utmost preparation — actually, this is secondary.
:::Cangxi: You only need to remember one rule — never, ever be merciful. As long as you can accomplish this, newbie or not, you'll be able to crush your opponent.
:: I don't have anything to ask, goodbye.
:::Cangxi: It's fine. You want to lay the hurt on any newbies, come to me for advice anytime.
: I don't have anything to ask, goodbye.
::Cangxi: It's fine. You want to lay the hurt on any newbies, come to me for advice anytime.
==Trivia==
* Despite claiming to be a Vidyadhara, Cangxi does not have the pointed ears that generally indicate a person as one of the Vidyadhara.
* Her quote is taken from a viral Chinese meme in 2023: 
** In October 16 2023, the FPS player 70kg made his debut livestream on . During a game of , 70kg was defeated by with questionable behavior. Guangjun denied that he cheated and came up with the sentence 「菜就多练，输不起就别玩。」 in his livestream, which became the origin of this meme. His gesture of moving his hands while saying the quote is also mimicked by Cangxi.
** Guangjun was later officially banned by the game due to cheating. However, he revealed in his November 13 livestream that the whole game of 70kg versus Guangjun was actually staged, and his cheating behavior was staged for clickbait.
