Chapter Seventy-One: Unexpected

A total of 70 people participated in this archery competition, and when they heard that they could get the promise of the four princesses, they immediately became 100 participants, and 30 people were eliminated in each round, so they had to be eliminated 40 people in each of the first two rounds.

The drums are beating again, and the first round begins! The waiters blindfolded each of their masters with ribbons, and after confirming that everything was correct, the official begins.

Twenty men in each column shot ten arrows each. The first column soon appeared, Han Li looked at it intently, and found that Gong Heling was the first to come out, stretching the bow and pulling the string, and the formula was done in a good way, and the ten arrows were shot quickly, and all the ten arrows shot by Heling hit the target, and four arrows hit the bull's-eye, and won the jackpot of the first column.

After taking off the ribbon, he immediately looked in the direction where Han Li was, and Han Li smiled at him when he saw him.

Everyone followed the eyes of the five princes curiously, although it was a little far away from being real, but they vaguely saw that it was an extremely beautiful girl. Not only did the fifth prince look at her with such concern, but also this age, coupled with such a temperament, everyone immediately guessed her identity. There was an immediate commotion.

Seeing this, Han Li immediately retreated from the window, and it gradually calmed down below. But it was difficult for each man's heart to be at peace. That's the fourth princess! The four princesses can watch me shoot arrows! If you can be taken by the princess, not to mention soaring into the sky, just to get this peerless beauty is willing to die! Thinking about it like this, everyone was enthusiastic and vowed to show it well.

The next list is very good, especially Teng Tianle, the eldest son of the Teng family, who is the same as Gong Heling, who also hit all the targets with ten arrows and the bullseye with four arrows, and had a tie with Heling. Soon came the last column. Han Li's long-awaited Four Emperor Palaces finally appeared. Watch him pull the bow and strings, incomparably skillful, and every movement is elegant and noble. Ten arrows hit the target, and seven arrows hit the bull's-eye. She couldn't help but applaud him above.

However, her applause was quickly drowned out by a roaring cheer, and even the Jingle and Gu'an princesses beside her were clapping their hands, and Han Li looked away with a little displeasure, but saw that she had not even changed into a bow and arrow suit, and only casually wore a jade-colored palace Jueqing, took off the blindfolded ribbon, and then turned her head to the direction where Han Li was.

At that moment, Han Li seemed to be penetrated by a cold and lonely but noble and loving aura, but only for a moment, he withdrew his gaze. Seeing Princess Jingle beside her smiling like a flower and waving at her own brother, she almost suspected that the qiē just now was just her own illusion.

Looking at it again, she stared at a pair of beautiful eyes in surprise, Gong Jueqing's seemingly random archery turned out to be ten arrows that hit the bull's-eye, and all of them were red hearts, without the slightest deviation. Only then did she believe what Gong Suxi said, a hundred steps through Yang, it is indeed true!

The second round soon began, and the guards put on their armoured horses and surrounded the remaining sixty people in the middle, only to see the contestants draw arrows and bow frequently, but if they hit the guards, whether they hurt or not, they were immediately eliminated. With such strict rules, there were only thirty people left in the venue in the blink of an eye.

Han Li observed carefully, whether it was Xiao Wu or the fourth brother, they all shot a little slowly, and then shot after determining the target, instead of just competing for speed like everyone else, but wasting a lot of arrows. However, Gong Jueqing is different, although his movements seem to be extremely casual, but he shoots extremely fast, and no one in the field can match his speed, and what is even more surprising is that he has such a fast arrow speed, but the arrows are all on target.

Her gaze suddenly became a little gloomy, and her heart suddenly became violent, she couldn't tolerate it, there was someone with such strength under her nose, and she didn't know anything! If his usual indifferent nature of fame and fortune is fake, and his hidden strength is true, then he has to get rid of it! His light-as-water temperament almost made her forget that he was her biggest opponent, just because of his high status - the eldest son! And because of his surprisingly similar face to his father, the queen loved him to the tip of her heart, and even her father loved him very much, if it weren't for his indifferent temperament, he would have been entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

Many thoughts turned in her heart, but she never showed any on her face, she never forgot it, even if the Jingle beside her, the two princesses of Gu'an were close to her, and they had to guard against it, after all, they were brothers and sisters of the same mother.

In the result of the second round, Gong Jueqing unexpectedly won the first round, followed by Gong Qianjin, Gong Jinbing again, and the remaining twenty people, who will compete in the final round. However, Teng Tianle, who was excellent in Fang Cai, was eliminated early, and he was no longer visible at this time.

A gong sounded, and the contestants rushed out at the same time, and Han Li knew that his equestrian skills were excellent, and at a glance, he saw him riding his favorite horse, Fu Xue, and went first. And Gong Heling also rode his Mo Ya to follow closely. She searched around but never saw Gong Jueqing's figure, but her eyes retracted but she was surprised to find that he was still feeding the horses at the starting point!

After feeding the last handful, he turned over on the horse, and his skillful and graceful movements showed his extraordinary riding skills, at this time, the people in front of him were almost out of sight, but he patted his horse affectionately and unhurriedly, and the horse raised his head very spiritually and neighed, leaped out, and disappeared......
