Finding:
Each wave of sword rain attacks from Xingqiu's burst snapshots buffs when summoned.

Evidence:
Without thrilling tales, Xingqiu's ATK was 1,181 and one hit from his burst did 432 damage on a crit, as shown here https://youtu.be/JuMcWCxYwow. With thrilling tales, Xingqiu's ATK was 1,485 and one hit from his burst did 544 damage on a crit, as shown here https://youtu.be/kbSCkUKflSE.

In this video https://youtu.be/8Pd2IY0f4wQ, I applied the thrilling tales buff to Xingqiu (ATK became 1,485) and then summoned a wave of Xingqiu's sword rain attacks just before the thrilling tales buff ran out. The result was that the sword rain attacks did 544 damage on a crit (the damage of a hit buffed by thrilling tales). We know thrilling tales expired before the enemy was hit since Xingqiu's ATK was 1,181 on the character screen just before the attack hit.

Significance:
Better understanding of Xingqiu's burst and snapshotting - Although in practice, Xingqiu's burst uses buffs dynamically, once a wave of sword rain attacks is summoned, that wave has snapshotted Xingqiu's stats and is NOT dynamic anymore.
Xingqiu sword rain attack without thrilling tales
ATK - 1,181
sword rain attack (crit) - 432
Xingqiu sword rain attack with thrilling tales
ATK - 1,485
sword rain attack (crit) - 544
A wave of Xingqiu's sword rain attacks snapshots thrilling tales buff
Although the thrilling tales buff expired before the wave of xingqiu's sword rain attacks hit, they did the damage of a wave buffed by thrilling tales.
I assume that Yelan's burst works the same way but I don't have Yelan so idk
