Chapter 14: Surprise

Shen Zhiyou, that waste, actually wants to compete with Shen Qianxi, the number one beauty and talented woman in the Flowing Fire Country, to try archery?!!!

The news exploded through the crowd like a drop of boiling water falling into warm oil.

At that time, the conversation between Shen Qianxi and Shen Zhiyou did not deliberately avoid other people, so the ladies sitting next to Shen Qianxi listened to all their conversations.

So, one to ten, ten to hundred, three incense sticks in less time, everyone present heard the news.

This Shen Zhiyou is not stupid, but crazy, otherwise, how could he agree to Shen Qianxi's request for the competition? You must know that Shen Qianxi's archery skills were personally taught by the martial arts teachers of the princes!

They were all waiting to see Shen Zhiyou's joke.

This man must not be too self-conscious...... Many people sighed silently in their hearts.

The archery competition was arranged in the last part of the feast, and at this time in previous years, most ministers thought that it was best to finish it as soon as possible so that they could go home and sleep. Because, it is no surprise that the final winner is produced between those princes, and among them, the third prince Xuanyuan Chang and the sixth prince Xuanyuan Qi have won the first place the most times - almost every championship is produced between these two people, unless neither of them comes to the competition.

One of them is the son of Concubine Rong, and the other is the sister-in-law of the queen's mother, the meaning of which is self-evident.

Because there is no suspense about the result, the ministers have nothing to do with it, and they just applaud.

Tonight is different, the first beauty Shen Qianxi wants to crush the waste in person, this kind of thing is very exciting when you think about it.

So, when His Majesty announced the official start of the archery competition, the ministers not only did not fall asleep as before, but gathered around both sides of the school field with a hundred times more energy, stretching their necks to look in.

The archery competition is divided into two parts, one is a fixed target, the other is a moving target, and the person with the highest number of rings in the end wins.

As if he felt that the atmosphere of the competition was not tense and exciting enough, His Majesty the Emperor also directly took out the rewards of this competition and placed them high on the rostrum.

Polar Ice Lotus?! It's actually a Polar Ice Lotus!

The crowd was even more boiling, the Polar Ice Lotus was a ninth-order spiritual material, growing in an extremely cold region, which could be encountered but not sought.

Unexpectedly, this time, His Majesty actually took out a ninth-order spiritual material as a reward, which is really a big deal.

Shen Zhiyou's ears moved, and he keenly captured the words "ninth-order spiritual material".

Is it a ninth-order spiritual material, very good, Shen Zhiyu hooked her lips and smiled.

Originally, she just wanted to win against Shen Qianxi, but she didn't expect that the ninth-order spiritual material she had in mind was placed in front of her like this.

In this way, her goal is not just to win against Shen Qianxi.

She wants to come out on top and get the highest reward!

Shen Zhiyou's eyes flashed with the light of ambition.

-------------------------------

At the order of His Majesty the Emperor, the game began.

Shen Zhiyou took the bow and arrow handed over by the little eunuch, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes.

Her archery skills were taught by Wei Lingxiao himself.

At that time, she saw the soldiers training archery on the school field, and thought it was fun, so she shouted that she wanted to learn it too.

At that time, Wei Lingxiao really spoiled her, seeing that she was excited to learn archery, he not only took time out of his busy schedule to teach her, but also took out his most precious longbow.

According to Wei Lingxiao, the longbow was given by his mother on his fifteenth birthday, and he usually chopped it off when other people touched it.

Later, Wei Lingxiao even created a longbow for her that belonged to her, with her name engraved on it.

Wei Lingxiao said that this longbow was as unique as her person.

A trace of pain crossed Shen Zhiyou's heart, and the hand holding the bow handle couldn't help but tighten tightly.

The betrayal came so suddenly that she was not mentally prepared at all.

The sweeter the memories of the past, the deeper the pain of the present.

It's just that Shen Zhiyou, who has no father and mother since she was a child, has always been a strong woman, she rarely shows her pain on her face, but hides it deep in her heart.

If no one cares for her, then she will protect herself.

"Heh, Shen Zhiyou, don't you even know how to hold a bow and arrow, do you want me to teach you?"

Shen Qianxi stood beside Shen Zhiyou, glanced at her contemptuously, and sneered.

She saw Shen Zhiyou standing there like a log, without any action, and took it for granted that Shen Zhiyou couldn't shoot arrows, so she confessed.

Shen Zhiyu opened her eyes abruptly and suppressed her unnecessary emotions deeply.

"Whether or not to shoot archery is not based on 'talking', but by 'doing'. Shen Zhi said lightly, skillfully put the arrow on the longbow and pulled it away.

Hmph, the posture is quite correct, Shen Qianxi thought disdainfully, just stopped ejaculating first, and waited to see Shen Zhiyou's joke with his arms crossed.

Archery is not just about posture.

Shen Zhi raised her chin slightly, her eyes half-narrowed.

Her divine sense was very powerful, and the arrow target from a distance of 100 meters seemed to her as if it was close at hand.

"Whoosh!"

Shen Zhiyou's hand let go, and the arrow flew straight towards the target.

Hit the bull's-eye!

Not only that, Shen Zhiyou was like hanging up, arrow after arrow, arrow after arrow, almost without stopping, and shot all the arrows behind him, and the arrows were firmly nailed to the bull's-eye.

Ten arrows, all hit the bull's-eye!

Shen Qianxi, who was waiting to see Shen Zhi's good show, was stunned, and the people around him were also stunned.

This...... Is this true? They're not blind, are they?!

Some people even couldn't help but pinch themselves fiercely-

Hiss – not dreaming.

It's just that the reality they see is more incredible than a dream.

Shen Zhiyou, how many "surprises" are waiting for them tonight?
