The SoulGlad Scorchsand Audition Venue is one of the most complicated areas added to Honkai Star Rail to date, and there are dozens of chests, Origami Birds, Trotters, and Lordly Trashcans to find within it.

The SoulGlad Scorchsand Audition Venue is comprised of several mini zones that feature unique challenges. There are two potential challenges per zone, but you only need to complete one of them to progress through the main story. If you want all the collectibles, though, you’ll have to come back and do everything.

Important note: You need to complete the Scorchsand Vacation side quest in order to unlock the hidden challenges required to access certain chests and rewards.

There are only a handful ofchestsandOrigami Birdslocated in the main area of the SoulGlad Scorchsand Audition Venue. All of them can be found in the initial lobby area before the challenges begin with the exception of one Origami Bird waiting for you near the northern exit.
