Xuanyuan settled down.

Find yourself in the middle of a primeval jungle.

The only difference is that in this primeval jungle there are only various towering trees, and large and small arrow targets hanging from different parts of the trees.

There were many tables in front of Xuanyuan, and there were quivers hanging next to the tables, and the arrows in the quivers were all full.

Behind him, there is a towering tree hundreds of meters high and dozens of meters wide, and there is a wooden door at the bottom of the tree, and inside is a wooden hut.

Only then did I finish observing the terrain.

Xuanyuan heard a voice that couldn't find the source, and explained it to himself.

"You'll spend thirty days in this test."

"The ratio of time here to the outside world is 10:1, and 10 days spent here is about equal to one day outside the world."

"Each day, the hut will show you the Dailies you need to complete for the day, and when you complete them early, you can choose to press the blue button on the tree behind you to skip the waiting time and go to the next day's Dailies."

"After completing 30 daily missions, you will be deemed to have passed the Archer Guild's initiation test, and you can be transferred to a trainee archer."

"In addition to that, there's a status restorer with a yellow button in the hut."

"When you're tired, hungry, sleepy, or lacking in energy, press the yellow button to instantly restore your physical condition and preserve the results of your workout."

"The yellow button can be used every hour."

"This forest has a limited area of action, and when you encounter a wall of air, you have reached the edge of your range of action, so turn back immediately and don't waste time."

"There are multiple shooting tables in the jungle, and the arrows in each table are automatically replenished when they run out, and the arrows fired will disappear after ten minutes."

"Please do not maliciously damage the shooting table and quiver, otherwise you will have to compensate according to the price."

"You only have two options if you want to get out of here."

"Either you complete 30 Dailies and successfully change classes, or you fail in any of them outright, you will be considered a failed test and will be sent away immediately."

"The green button in the lower right corner of each shooting table will provide you with a projection analysis function, which can help you correct the shooting action, please experience the specific function for yourself."

"Descriptions of the different coloured buttons are engraved in your cabin, so you don't have to worry about forgetting or making mistakes."

"Finally, I wish you a successful test and a successful transfer!"

With that, the voice disappeared completely.

Let's take a walk around this primeval jungle first.

Xuan Yuan counted and saw a total of seven different shooting tables.

The position and distance of the target in front of each shooting table is completely different.

I took a look at the cabin.

The hut was bare, not even a bed.

There was only a wooden table with a yellow button embedded in it, and a large display on the wall inside the wooden house that read:

【Day 1】

[Mission of the day: Complete 1000 arrows shot]

If you only want to shoot 1000 arrows, it only takes about 4 hours to complete them.

However, Xuan Yuan did not forget.

This is a test set by the Archer Guild, and it's still the first day of the test.

Get out of the cabin.

To be honest, after coming to this primeval jungle, there has always been a place that makes Xuanyuan feel faintly incongruous.

At first, Xuan Yuan hadn't reacted yet.

It didn't take long for him to realize that there was no "life" in this jungle, everything was lifeless.

There are no birds, no insects, no mosquitoes, and no life here.

The only thing that is there is only the silence of seclusion.

Taking a deep breath, Xuanyuan adjusted his state.

There is only one test in the Archer Guild, and if you can't pass it, you can't take it again.

Find the nearest shooting table first, and the target in front of the shooting table is a 10-meter target.

Genyuan tried to press the green button.

Next to the shooting table, a three-dimensional muscle model of his own size appeared.

This muscle model constantly repeats the standard shooting posture of drawing arrows, building a bow, and shooting, and the action posture is extremely standard, which is different from Xuanyuan's previous habit of practicing arrows, and the opponent does not use the bow back.

Xuanyuan imitated the movements of this model and shot an arrow, obviously feeling that the action standards were a lot, and his body was a lot more comfortable when he shot the arrow.

After shooting an arrow, two muscle models appeared in front of Xuan Yuan that kept repeating the same movements.

It is obvious to see.

Among them, there is a muscle model with very non-standard movements, that is, the archery action I just had, and even all the parts of the non-standard movements on this model are marked in white.

Genyuan followed the model and tried to improve the quality of his last shooting move.

An arrow is fired.

Sure enough, the accuracy improved.

The previous arrow was still on the edge of the target, and this arrow finally hit the target.

Try each of the seven shooting tables one by one.

Xuanyuan found that the training content of each shooting table was different.

There are three shooting stands for standard shooting, and they include left and right shots.

It's just that the shooting distance is different, one is 10 meters, one is 18 meters, and the other is 30 meters.

Moving Target Shooting: Standing in front of the shooting table, the target 10 meters away will start to move irregularly.

Running shooting: The target will not move, but it needs to be Xuan Yuan in the running, shooting at the fixed target located on the left and right sides respectively.

Squatting Shooting: Have Xuan Yuan crouch in a very awkward position and try to shoot left and right with the bow.

The last shooting table is a bit interesting.

Every time Xuan Yuan stood up, the field of vision was dark, and only the faint moonlight remained, and he needed to shoot a few fixed targets in the dark night.

As soon as you leave the shooting table, it is bright daylight again.

Having understood the mechanism, Xuanyuan directly began shooting training.

He didn't choose to unload the equipment on his body, because Xuan Yuan knew that what he needed to practice was the archery technique that could be used in actual combat, not the bow technique that he also needed to take off the equipment when fighting.

He didn't mess around.

Calm down, start practicing from the first shooting table.

Don't rush or slow, try slowly and arrow by arrow, and gradually adjust the movement to the point where it is completely up to the standard.

With the bow drawn again and again.

Arrows will automatically heal, so you don't need to pick them up.

The personal terminal could not be turned on, it was just a pitch-black brick.

It won't be dark here.

Every time I feel hungry, sleepy, or tired, I press a button and my body is restored, and even my equipment is brand new.

No need to eat, no sleep, no bathing and no excretion.

Gradually, Xuanyuan lost the concept of time.

There was silence, no one could communicate, and no one could hear anything other than the sound of oneself shooting arrows.

Quests in the hut are updated on a regular basis every day if not for them.

No more, no less, just one more time each time, just increased the task requirement of 100 arrows, so that Xuan Yuan could calculate how many days had passed.

I'm afraid that Xuanyuan is already about to fall into some kind of unconscious chaos.

Such a place is a great mental torture for people.

It is equivalent to putting a person in a prison that is completely closed or even allowed to let go of the wind.

There is no entertainment other than archery.

No cell phone, no computer, no one to communicate with.

People who are not mentally strong will soon be plagued by loneliness and desperately want to get out of this environment.

However.

Even if Xuanyuan's heart became more and more irritable, his mood became negative and low.

He still didn't use the blue button on the tree to skip a day.

If you have enough time, why not use it reasonably?

Every day, he spends 24 hours in its entirety, all of which is spent practicing archery.

Every day, he struggled to endure the irritability and anxiety that rose within him.

Gradually, when the daily mission becomes 2000 arrows.

In Xuan Yuan's heart, a desperate thought suddenly rose:

Actually, it's only been 10 days?

How does it feel like a century has passed?

Immediately, he woke up violently.

Wake up from a sluggish state of unconsciousness.

Sit on the ground, cover your head and let out a sigh.

He found that the past ten days.

I have unconsciously fallen into a vague dream, a little unable to distinguish between dream and reality.

Even during these ten days.

I don't remember exactly what he did.

I only vaguely remember to complete the daily mission, and then it is the mechanical bow and arrow.

Shaking his head, Xuan Yuan chose to stop.

Throw the bow aside and lie down on the ground to rest.

Although he felt a little tired, he didn't press the yellow button to recover, because he wouldn't be able to sleep if he pressed it.

He's reacted now.

The test of the Archer Guild is indeed hidden.

The yellow button can restore the body state in an instant.

However, the mental state cannot be restored with the push button.

Ignoring mental exhaustion will gradually lose the ability to consciously perceive in the excitement and fall into an unconscious inertial reaction.

The brain is also becoming more and more sluggish, and it is becoming less and less inclined to think.

The more this happens, the more psychologically uncomfortable it becomes, and the more I like to press the yellow button.

The more you press the yellow button, the more you will feel lethargic after a short period of excitement, and gradually reduce the efficiency of your practice and the quality of your life.

Took a look inside the hut.

Discovered that today 2,000 archery shoots he has completed.

Then, lie down on the ground with peace of mind.

Close your eyes and fall asleep.

I don't know how long I slept, but when I woke up again, I felt refreshed.

The whole person is also like a new one.

Xuanyuan realized that only sleep could restore his mental state.

By deliberately not having a bed in the hut, you mislead yourself into thinking that you don't need to sleep.

Entering the hut, the day's mission on the display is still 2000 arrows.

A few seconds later.

It happened to turn into 2100 arrows in front of Genyuan, indicating that it had entered a new day.

After waking up, Xuanyuan had a clear mind.

He understood.

The yellow button is an addictive thing.

The more you press, the more addicted you are, the more addicted you are, the more you can't control yourself, and the more you can't control yourself, the more you fall into a state of confusion.

In this state, I don't even want to pay attention to Dailies.

Once you've completed your Dailies mechanically, just wait next to the yellow button and press it as soon as it refreshes.

The whole person has almost become a wasted person.

If this continues, it will be a matter of time before you abandon Dailies.

I pulled the booklet out of my pocket.

Re-read the Archer Guild's Test Requirements.

[Requirements: will, patience, self-control, psychological endurance]

Xuanyuan suddenly woke up.

Yellow button.

The corresponding test is the will.

There was no food, not even toilets, no showers, and everyone involved in the test had to use the yellow button.

The yellow button refreshes at a rate once an hour, much higher than it really requires.

It feels very good to be refreshed.

However, if it is not controlled, it will soon become muddy and become a serious addiction.

Every time my form drops a little, I desperately press the yellow button to get myself back.

The yellow button is again a necessity, and without using the yellow button, you can't live in this place.

Reasonable arrangement of the frequency of use of the yellow button, self-restraint, is the key!

Blue button.

The corresponding test is patience.

In this place where there is no entertainment, no personal terminals, nothing to do other than archery and tree climbing.

If you don't have the patience, you will only be desperate to leave.

Once you press the blue button, the days fly by.

Blindly improve the rate of fire.

But in fact, there was no growth in archery.

Xuanyuan would not be naïve to think.

The final test of the Archer Guild has risen to 4,000 arrows in one day to easily clear the level.

Although 4,000 arrows a day is tiring, it is definitely not too difficult.

Otherwise, why would the guild set up seven different types of shooting tables?

When a certain node is reached.

Daily missions are definitely changing, and assessments are definitely related to the technique of the shooting table.

A test of self-control and mental endurance.

It's painful enough to shut up a person for a day in a place where there is no entertainment and no one to communicate with.

What's more, what about being closed for a whole month?

Moreover, it is also very viciously given the other party the right to take the initiative to end.

If you don't have strong enough self-control, you really can't bear it.

Figure this out.

Xuan Yuan began to readjust the schedule for each day.

According to the seven shooting tables, each shooting table is set with a different number of sets and times, and reasonable rest times are set between each set.

After that, in addition to normal hunger, and muscle state is restored.

Other times, Xuanyuan doesn't use the yellow button too much.

After completing the set amount of training each day, Xuanyuan will choose to sleep to recover.

Wait until you wake up to update your muscles with the yellow button so as not to affect the intensity of your training the next day.

In addition to this, I also arranged meditation for myself.

Whenever he completed a series of training on a shooting table, Xuan Yuan would cross-legged for about half an hour of deep meditation to rest and calm the mental restlessness caused by no one communicating.

In order to restrain the desire to use the yellow button, Xuan Yuan chose to use it at a fixed frequency instead of blindly refusing or indulging.

Gradually, Xuanyuan became more and more calm.

Begin to devote more and more attention to every archery.

Start enjoying the physical sensation after each arrow is fired, make each arrow more comfortable, and no longer blindly focus on the improvement of archery performance.

Even the green button on the shooting table, he often doesn't use it.

Just a rough standard for maintaining posture.

Turn off the model, focus entirely on the inside of the body, and try to explore the most comfortable archery position for yourself, instead of copying the standard posture of the muscle model.

In the continuous exploration and research, Xuanyuan gains more and more every day.

I also gradually entered a state of concentration without time.

Time is moving faster and faster.

He no longer felt like years, but felt that each day was getting shorter and shorter.

In the blink of an eye, the time has come to the 29th day.

Xuanyuan who woke up and got up.

Just when he subconsciously thought that today's task was to shoot 3,900 arrows.

Daily Missions, changed.

【Day 29】

[Task of the day: Each shooting station shoots 10 arrows according to the action requirements, and no arrow is required to miss the target, each shooting station can only try three rounds of shooting, and failure in any shooting station is regarded as a failure of the whole test. 】

Xuan Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, as he had guessed before.

Today's task.

The most difficult is the 30-meter standing shot.

There are also running shots, shooting moving targets, and shooting at night.

After this period of systematic training, Xuanyuan's bow technique has undergone qualitative changes.

Not to mention how strong, but definitely not weak.

Thirty-meter target, although not a bull's-eye.

But Xuanyuan easily hit the target with 10 arrows for the first time, and did not miss the target.

Shoot moving targets and beat them as easily.

Running shooting, this project is something that Xuanyuan has always deliberately strengthened.

He simply used the fastest running speed to complete a gorgeous rapid fire in one go in a high-speed run, and hit all 10 arrows.

Finally, there is the night shooting.

The position of the target is different every time, and Xuanyuan accidentally lands the target and shoots an arrow.

Fortunately, the second time was successfully completed.

After completing the Dailies, he was not impetuous.

Continue to polish the technique with peace of mind, and complete the plan for the last day step by step according to the previous daily schedule.

Finally, the time came to the last day.

Xuanyuan, who woke up in advance, sat and waited for the last day's task to be refreshed.

【Day 30】

[Task of the day: Shoot 10,000 times at the target, regardless of the shooting method, and ensure that the action does not go out of shape by more than 60%.] 】

See this task.

He quickly wrote down the calculation formula on the ground with his hands.

The fastest speed to shoot an arrow by yourself is 2 seconds, and the minimum speed of 10,000 arrows is 20,000 seconds.

It can be completed in about 6 hours.

But in reality, muscles ache very quickly.

The yellow button only updates the physical status once an hour, plus the time wasted by missing arrows.

Count as one hour of continuous shooting.

Choosing the nearest 10-meter target, an average of about 15 arrows can hit the target in one minute, which is an ideal situation.

The mission requires 10,000 hits, not just 10,000 rapid-fire.

Even so, 24 hours is almost enough to shoot 21,000 arrows.

In terms of time, 15 arrows per minute is enough, so there is no need to rush.

The next test for myself is probably endurance and perseverance.

Come to think of it.

Xuanyuan grabbed the longbow, ran to the shooting table, grabbed a large number of arrows from the quiver, and turned on the rapid-fire mode.

Increase the rate of fire as much as possible while increasing the accuracy of the target.

He even tried to shoot two arrows at the same time, but unfortunately the target rate was too low, so he had to give up.

Keep shooting and adjusting the frequency, gritting your teeth and constantly pulling the bow and shooting arrows, until your muscles are so sore and your hands are shaking that you can barely pull the bow, then you run back and shoot the yellow button.

Immediately after the status update, come back and continue shooting.

When you're tired and the yellow button is still on cool, take a break and continue gritting your teeth.

I didn't have time to count how many arrows I had shot.

Fortunately, every time I ran back to the cabin to update the status, I could see the progress bar at the bottom of the display.

1,000, 2,000, 5,000......

I didn't have time to refer to it, and I didn't know if I wasted the yellow button updating the times.

It is not clear how much time is left.

Knowing only that you are in a race against time is a huge test of willpower.

I could only grit my teeth, endure the sore muscles, and continue to draw the bow and shoot arrows.

Until his fingers were covered with blood, he insisted on drawing the bow in pain.

Finally, 10,000 target launches were completed.

Xuan Yuan fell to his knees and gasped for breath.

His hands trembled uncontrollably as if they were cramping, he could barely hold the bow, and the blue bow was stained with his blood.

If it weren't for the yellow button to recover from the injury, I'm afraid even my finger would have been broken.

In my ears, a long-lost human voice sounded:

[Congratulations, apprentice adventurer Xuanyuan]

【You have successfully passed the Archer Guild's entrance exam】
