Continuous attack and defense between two cyber swordsmen — one crimson, one ink-blue — in a rain-soaked palace at night. The prompt opens with the all-caps line "EXACT 2 CHARACTERS — NO DUPLICATES"; this kind of hard constraint against character duplication is common practice in multi-character action scenes.

EXACT 2 CHARACTERS — NO DUPLICATES Use only 【@Image1】 as the sole reference image and strict first frame. Only two original cyber-wuxia swordsmen may appear on screen: the Crimson swordsman on the left, the Cyan-Ink swordsman on the right. Preserve the characters' appearance, masks, clothing, body type, the two swords, the rainy nighttime palace city, the lighting, and the spatial relationship from the first frame. Each fighter carries exactly one cyber-Chinese sword. SCENE CONTEXT Generate a complete 15-second, 16:9 landscape, real-time high-speed cyber-wuxia dual-sword battle. The action has already begun from the first frame — no running into frame, no staring standoff, no posing, no taking turns to attack. Both fighters engage continuously throughout; after every heavy strike there must be immediate repositioning, landing, and a rebound — no idling after a clash. GEO SPATIAL LAYOUT Zone A: the vermilion palace wall and bronze door pillars on the left of frame. Zone B: the wet black-stone courtyard and the brightly lit doorway at the center of frame. Zone C: the stone steps, corridor pillars, and railings on the right of frame. The Crimson swordsman advances from Zone A toward Zone B; the Cyan-Ink swordsman counter-charges from Zone C toward Zone B. Every jump, slide-back, near-miss pass, landing, and rebound must land within Zone A, B, or C. The palace gate, pillars, stone steps, railings, curtain of rain, and lighting remain fixed throughout — do not rebuild the background, change the weather, or change the time of day. FORMAT MODE A controlled, multi-shot cinematic action sequence, with every shot belonging to the same continuous rainy-night palace city. Cuts are allowed only at the instant of a genuine blade clash, when sparks fill the frame, or when a character brushes past a pillar or shattered tile occludes the lens. After each cut, character positions, left-right relationship, direction of movement, direction of force, and lighting must all carry over. This is not a game viewpoint, not a player POV, not an over-the-shoulder lock, and not a behind-the-character tracking shot. OPTICS AND CAMERA Primarily use a natural 47° cinematic field of view and an 84° wide angle. 70% of the frame should use two-shot medium and medium-close shots, with both characters' faces, blades, footwork, and points of contact clearly visible. The camera always shoots from a three-quarter front angle or directly to the side of the two fighters, at a distance of 2 to 5 meters. 0—3s: A low-angle three-quarter two-shot medium shot, the camera slowly pushing in while panning right; a very brief impact push-in occurs at the first hard clash. 3—6s: A direct-side, parallel high-speed tracking move, the camera following the two fighters' shared movement; a brief low-angle upward tilt follows the Cyan-Ink swordsman as he leaps, immediately returning to the two-shot medium on landing. 6—9s: The camera moves between two bronze pillars, a foreground pillar sweeping across the lens to complete an occlusion cut; after the cut, the camera maintains the same direction, continuing to shoot the two fighters' rebounds and sword recoveries — never lingering on their backs for long. 9—12s: A slightly-above-shoulder-height, angled downward two-shot medium shot, the camera arcing no more than 90 degrees to show the two fighters' large-scale movement from Zone A through Zone B into Zone C. 12—15s: Return to a low-angle, slightly-off-center front two-shot medium-close shot, the camera pulling back as both fighters charge simultaneously toward the center; a brief directional shake at the final collision, then a fast pull-back of roughly 3 meters after the burst, revealing the palace city and both fighters' residual slide-back momentum. ACTION TIMING [0—3s] Strictly continuing from the first frame. The Crimson swordsman presses forward with a lowered blade while the Cyan-Ink swordsman simultaneously slides back toward Zone C, deflecting the blade outward. Before the Cyan-Ink swordsman finishes sliding back, he immediately delivers a low horizontal slash; the Crimson swordsman blocks while still moving. The Crimson swordsman then thrusts upward from below, and the Cyan-Ink swordsman twists his wrist to press the blade down. Three contacts occur in rapid succession, producing blade vibration, wrist recoil, splashing water underfoot, and brief red-cyan sparks. The Cyan-Ink swordsman lands on the stone steps in Zone C and immediately rebounds. [3—6s] Using the stone steps as a launch point, the Cyan-Ink swordsman leaps back into Zone B in a downward slashing position; the Crimson swordsman meets him from Zone B, blocking hard with the flat of the blade. After the mid-air clash, the Cyan-Ink swordsman is knocked back toward Zone A, bending his knees on landing to absorb the impact, sending stone fragments and puddled water bursting outward to both sides. There is no pause on landing — the Cyan-Ink swordsman immediately spins and counter-thrusts; the Crimson swordsman slides sideways to dodge and knocks the blade tip aside with a parry. [6—9s] The Crimson swordsman plants a foot against the base of a bronze pillar in Zone A and pivots, circling around the pillar before rebounding into Zone B like a cannonball. Simultaneously, the Cyan-Ink swordsman shifts sideways into Zone C for a counter-slash. The Crimson swordsman slides low beneath the blade before thrusting upward, and the Cyan-Ink swordsman raises his sword to block; the second clash pushes the Cyan-Ink swordsman into the Zone C railing, his body brushing against it before he immediately spins to counter-pursue. The railing shakes slightly, rain and debris scattering in the direction of the force. [9—12s] Both fighters cross back from Zone C into Zone B simultaneously, engaging in continuous close-range grappling. The Cyan-Ink swordsman thrusts straight, the Crimson swordsman deflects the blade tip; the Crimson swordsman slashes horizontally, the Cyan-Ink swordsman blocks at close range; the Cyan-Ink swordsman knocks the Crimson blade aside with a parry, then drives diagonally toward Zone A. The Crimson swordsman uses a door pillar to pivot in a half-circle and slash back. The two cross paths at high speed from Zone A through Zone B into Zone C, their footwork, splashing water, robe hems, and blade edges forming a continuous trail of motion. Each clash is immediately followed by the next move. [12—15s] The two fighters stand at opposite ends, Zone A and Zone C, and simultaneously rush along the central axis of Zone B at high speed. The Crimson swordsman thrusts upward from a low stance, the Cyan-Ink swordsman presses down from a high stance. After the first clash, each slides back half a meter before immediately charging back in; on the second clash, the two blades briefly lock, both fighters' knees, shoulders, and backs, and feet all bearing force simultaneously; the third is the final hard clash — red and cyan light briefly flares along the blades at the point of contact, a small burst of metal sparks, raindrops, and gravel exploding outward to both sides. Both fighters slide back three to four meters in opposite directions, still standing, turning, and carrying the momentum of another charge. The final frame must not be static, must not show either fighter falling, and must not show a victory pose. PHYSICS AND EFFECTS A clear physical anchor point must occur every 0.4—0.7 seconds: blade contact, a block, a near-miss pass, a slide-back, a landing, absorbing force, a rebound, or a renewed attack. Every strike must show footing support, power generated from the hips, real contact, blade vibration, body displacement, recoil, and the follow-up move. Ordinary clashes should produce only a small amount of metal sparks, rainwater spray, and a brief flash of red-cyan light along the blades; heavy strikes produce a localized shockwave ring, gravel, and water splashes; only the final collision produces the maximum burst. Red and cyan light may exist only as fine tracery on the blades and at real points of contact — it must never become a beam, an energy blast, a flying sword, an energy wall, or a floating ring of light. LIGHTING AND AUDIO Cold blue storm light serves as the key light, with vermilion lanterns on the left providing red rim light and cyan-green lighting on the right providing cool-toned reflected light. The direction of light, exposure, palace gate, pillars, ground reflections, and rain intensity remain consistent throughout. Retain only the sounds of the storm, blades cutting through the air, metal clashing, blade vibration, footsteps splashing through water, friction against wet stone, the railing shaking, robes whipping through the air, and brief grunts of exertion. No dialogue, no narration, no score, no BGM, no subtitles, no on-screen text, no logo, no watermark. POSITIVE LOCKS Both fighters move simultaneously throughout; after every heavy strike, space opens up immediately with a clear landing point, the feet absorbing the impact before immediately rebounding. Prohibited: turn-based exchanges, stationary trading of blows, idling after a clash, characters auto-resetting to position, background drift, buildings appearing to move, camera resets, a game-style viewpoint, a third character, a third weapon, spears, halberds, shields, slow motion, freeze frames, and scene changes.

✍️ Editor’s Notes

The single most instructive part of this one is the GEO SPATIAL LAYOUT section — it breaks the entire rain-soaked palace-city set into three fixed zones, A, B, and C, and mandates that every jump, backslide, and knockback the characters do has to land inside those three zones. That's essentially pre-drawing a grid board for a 15-second, high-speed multi-shot duel, so the model doesn't have to judge spatial continuity on its own — it just has to walk the ABC positions and it can't break continuity. The FORMAT MODE section specifically calls out ‘not a game POV, not a player perspective, not an over-the-shoulder lock,’ correcting the common tendency for sword-fight prompts to get dragged by the model into third-person video-game camera language. ACTION TIMING breaks every 3 seconds into one combat round and additionally mandates ‘a clear body anchor must appear every 0.4-0.7 seconds,’ quantifying strike rhythm as a frequency rather than a vague ‘fights intensely’ — that kind of quantification does a lot for controllability in high-speed action scenes. The POSITIVE LOCKS paragraph wraps everything up by putting the positive requirements and negative prohibitions together in one place, basically zipping the whole prompt into a compressed summary at the end.
