Closer look
Blue Blossom Compass
Quick Hand Zhang owned this treasure. Light the bell first, then defeat the boss, then exit the arena by the right-hand ramp and walk through the house directly on that side. You will spot a zipline ahead; slide down, jump the poles, then veer to the right on the sand. The chest is there.

Is fighting You Loong compulsory?
It is not, but both the Loong Trident and the Master of the Misty Waters trophy hinge on winning that fight.
Does this You Loong match the one from Pangzhen?
The character is identical, yet the battle on the lake is its own encounter and carries a separate prize.
