During the process, the masses lit more fireworks and firecrackers to boost their spirits, and the atmosphere was warm.
By the Qing Dynasty, lantern dancing had developed to a higher level, and had certain performance programs and titles. Records in the Eaves Exposed Miscellaneous Records show that during the Qianlong Lantern Festival, there were 3000 lantern dancers in Xichang, Beijing. The dancers sang "Taiping Song" and danced in a circle, changing their formations, forming the characters of Taiping, Ping, Wanwan and Niao in turn.

Finally, Zhang Xu is quoted. Looking at the allusions of Gong Sun Da-niang's development in cursive script after her sword-dancing, we admire that the artistic effect of lantern dancing surpasses that of sword-dancing, and conclude the poem with "Calligraphy Enlightenment in Gong Sun-nian, let alone Dancing Lantern Wins Sword Dancing". The level of lantern dancing performed by 12 women is beyond doubt. The lantern dancing played a role of propaganda revolution during the Anti-Japanese War.
