Chapter 785: She Actually Closed Her Eyes!_1

“What are you laughing at? If you’ve got guts, beat me first!” Ziying fiercely glared at Ouyang Peishan.

Though there was disappointment in her eyes, thinking of the psychological pressure Baili Xia was under, Ziqing still voiced her comfort.

“Xiaxia, don’t worry too much. You let go too slowly just now, that’s why you missed by a bit. Let go a little faster next time.”

Baili Xia turned around and nodded at Ziqing.

She knew her own problems.

She may have been too nervous just now, making it hard for her to control her hand.

Suddenly remembering something, she looked towards the number three target.

Ouyang Peishan actually hit the eight-point ring, quite impressive indeed.

No wonder she was so arrogant earlier, she did have some skill.

She then looked at the number six target.

A perfect score.

Sima Liuyue had actually hit the bullseye.

Undeniably the best.

Sima Liuyue, who had always been leading in the women’s group, hit a perfect score with her first arrow.

She truly lived up to her reputation.

The only perfect score so far was from Sima Liuli.

After the first round, the total score of the three from the Mu Family was only ranked sixth among the Eight Big Families.

Without a doubt, the Sima Family was ranked first.

Baili Xia wore an embarrassed look on her face, feeling helpless.

Even she felt guilty towards Ziqing and Ziying.

If she had scored five points or more, it might not be a problem for the Mu Family to be among the top three.

Ziqing and Ziying comforted her again.

They believed Baili Xia still had a chance to hit the target.

She just released too slowly earlier, slowing down the arrow’s speed.

The second round began, and the situation differed from the first round.

Ziying could only score seven points, and Ziqing six points.

The best in this round was Sima Liuyue.

However, for some reason, Sima Liuyue was distracted this time and could only manage an eight-point score.

This time, Baili Xia did control the speed of her hands well.

Due to the wind, however, the arrow did deviate from its path.

However, she did manage to hit the target this time.

Two points.

After the second round, the score of the Mu Family did not improve, and the Sima Family still came first.

The third round began, and surprisingly Ziying missed terribly, scoring only one point.

This put an enormous amount of pressure on Ziqing.

If Xiaxia can’t manage to get a single point, and Ziying scored one, they want her dead!

Under such pressure, her performance was not very good, scoring only five points in the end.

With this score, if Baili Xia performed as she did in the previous two rounds, they would most likely end up at the bottom.

Baili Xia stood before the firing line, her eyes shut as she attempted to regulate her breathing.

She couldn’t rush anymore!

She was fine during practice and she understood the exquisite elements in Mr.

Bei’s archery method taught by the Bei Family.

But why couldn’t her heart calm down?

No, what she needed to do now was to keep her heart still.

She had to be calm!

When the referee signaled to shoot, Baili Xia swiftly opened her eyes, gave a glance at the wind and the target, and then suddenly shut her eyes!

She closed her eyes!

This broken girl actually closed her eyes while shooting in the competition!

Did she think that since she couldn’t score any points anyway, she preferred to keep her eyes shut rather than face the reality?

“Xia…” Ziying, not far behind, wanted to come forward.

But Ziqing grabbed her hand and shook her head gently when she looked back, signalling her not to speak.

Perhaps, Baili Xia had a miraculous plan this time!

Even though, she felt that, the possibility of that was virtually zero.
