Alright last two episodes of the Creation of the Gods Training Camp Cvariety show (Episode 6) (Episode 7)

Episode 6

Hou Wenyuan supervising Chen Muchi's singing

This is an ongoing thing, but the narrator in the edited clips has been purposely speaking in a Western accent to mimic Kris Phillips' accent. But it's obvious that they are fluent and just putting on an accent.

Hou Wnyuan wearing the sheer because there apparently wasn't anything else

Historical etiquette class

According to the teacher, if you're kneeling properly, your knees don't even touch the floor and you're leaning entirely on your calves.

First lesson, kneel for 5 minutes

Hell yeah Ci Sha and Li Yunrui also rocking the sheer

Planning mannerisms for the patricide scene and Su Quanxiao's death scene to reflect the characters' states of mind

Practising walking and holding posture in court too. This is pretty interesting.

Now the war dance!!!!

While the hostage sons were practising the war dance, Yu Shi was in Xinjiang filming his scene so he only had a few days to practise the war dance and had to ask for extra help.

The war dance was the hostage sons' first scene filmed. And they got it done in one go.

Now preparation for the first battle scenes.

Yu Shi's horse kept avoiding the hurdles. The first step was to lead the horse to the hurdle and have the horse kick it to go past. And then afterwards they would get the horse to jump over the hurdle.

Hello Mr. Krabbs

The original dance choreographed for the feast was a more typical celebratory dance by female dancers. But Wuershan liked the war dance so much that he wanted to add it in. I agree that it was a great idea. The war dance with the topless hostage sons has kind of become iconic. As Wuershan said, most other movies and TV shows will have a rather generic dance. Giving the hostage sons a chance to dance gives the hostage son characters an added dimension too.

Yu Shi had to go to Xinjiang to film at the time of the war dance practice because it was August and it would soon be harvest time for the wheat fields.

LOL Wuershan laughing at the reaction meme game

Naran can even understand ancient texts in Chinese now :o She's come so far. I wish I could read ancient Chinese texts!!!

熊孩子 >3

Yu Shi tearing up as he talks about this being his first film and how he'll continue to work hard but that his first film will be special

All the actors on set talking about how much they appreciated this filming experience ;_;

Nana had wanted to be an actress from a young age. When she was a model, she felt a little aimless, but now that she's back on the acting route her goal is clearer to her <3

Naxi teared up too. I would imagine that as an "older" person at the camp, it must be such a positive and moving experience to find a new path for yourself.

In addition to the super cute scroll, Wuershan also got some new swag

Height comparison

Episode 7

Lore quiz!!!! This is kinda fun lol

Ji Fa and Deng Chanyu have a battle in water in the second movie :o I wonder if it's combat or like, an actual war with soldiers and horses.

Oh no they have to practise holding their breath ToT That's so anxiety inducing to me

Looks like they're learning breaststroke

Scuba time

Wu Hankun talking big about how handsome he is and then Hou Wenyuan one-upping him with the narcissism which amuses the teachers so much XD

Now they need Hou Wenyuan to make an ugly face and act silly (presumably because to be a good actor you have to pull faces and not always be thinking about your appearance).

The hostage sons discussing why their characters would not kill Daji in the scene where they discover her in the snow

When Hou Wenyuan was practising a part where Chong Yingbiao was boasting, the Jing Niansong was like "guys nobody is hyping up your beifang da-ge and he's feeling very awkward rn" lol

Ji Fa and Chong Yingbiao play fighting XD And then "fighting for real" during rehearsal

Naran dance performance!

Hell yeah girls' fight

Now horseback riding skills demonstration

The group horseback riding skills are pretty cool. I remember when they were practising their formations before, the instructor was telling them that their circle wasn't round enough, etc. which isn't something I'd normally think about but we see now how good their formations are.

Hell yeah group demonstration WITH WEAPONS now. The spear wielders always look so cool to me

Several drum performances (y)

I noticed that Zhang Xuehan (on the far left) has a smaller drum

Doggo on set

WHAT Hou Wenyuan just found the dog and brought it to camp ^^;; They went around town looking for the dog's owner and also all chipped in some money to get the dog to the vet

Hou Wenyuan and Huang Xiyan were kind of in charge of the dog. And they were both considered for Yang Jian so they were like "is this Xiaotianquan" (Yang Jian's dog in mythological canon)

LMAO Kun-babi 坤爸比 (Like Kun-papa)

Apparently the dog is quite a young one

I guess they found an owner to adopt the dog in the end

Tug of war again, but indoors. They're all super competitive about it.

Basketball time. Huang Xiyan was like "we have to take Lin Yunrui out to play basketball or else he'll grow mould" lol

I forgot to mention this before but one of the guys said that they were all growing their hair out for the movie (i.e. so that they could tie up their own hair as opposed to using a wig like in dramas). So that's why all the guys are wearing headbands and sporting buns/ponytails.

Yu Shi is wearing a basketball jersey with "YU" on the back so presumably it was an old jersey that he actually wore when he was still a basketball player

Yu Shi dunk

Yu Shi was helping Ci Shi to get high up enough

And I'm done! Overall it was really fun watching the behind the scenes of the training camp and to finally get to meet some of the cast members. Some of the games were better than others, and the audio quality was bad. But this was still fun.
