Tch," the other girl clicked her tongue. "You sure about this, even someone like me knows your making trouble, casting yourself as the Diviner in a thing like this."

"If you're not making trouble, are you really making art?"

Yu Nuan squinted at her. "That's a dangerous thought."

"That is cultivation, you can't achieve the peak without dangerous thoughts," Ling Qi said
Ah so this is the scandal. Chao is gonna have fun being the center of attention for hosting such a provocative performance. He's gonna love it

A party is never dull if you bring a Ling

"the true Power of Friendship, after all, is having five other people there to help you beat someone up." -Ryuugi, and probably a bunch of other people.

Reference materials:

I don't think this side story ever got posted on SV? Bonus: The Great Diviner

It is said in legend that as the power of the Horned Lord and the Diviner waxed, the eight Beast Kings who remained came together in council of war and united to bring down the conqueror once and for all. Their footfalls shook the earth and their savagery shook the skies, and though they were defeated in the end, echoes of that terrible march remained etched in the folklore of the Emerald Seas forever more. This art is part of a ballad said to have been composed for the last Weilu dukes, and though its origin is suspect, its power is not.
(plus further descriptions for the actual moves)

This is clearly the better idea for a party having a good result. Attempting to mitigate the scandal of doing this at all.

But it would be very memorable if we made this all about "join us, or we will cry when you die". Doubling down on a scandal making this unforgettable.

Honestly, both paths feel like they're in tension with the original purpose of the art - treating the beasts as powerful, rather than inevitable losers. But I'm inclined to go with the second, actually:

Keep in mind that having multiple sources of debuffs means they can stack.

"I'm here!" Ma Jun's voice echoed from up the east entrance, where she came sprinting in, gown hiked up in her hands.

"I was worried you might be too distracted," Ling Qi said lightly, remembering her dance with Gan Guangli's friend.

She flushed, "Th-thats…"
"At last, Lord Gan isn't going to fly in all of a sudden"
*Casts worried gaze around*
"He isn't...right?"

I like the idea of the BKSD condtructs being more savage and disposable than if we used them for buffs.

This whole event is about connection and community. It seems appropriate to keep the theme.

I really like the framing of "our wood arts are for allies and cold arts are for enemies"
