Chapter 787: Finally Getting Interesting_1

She took a glance at the bullseye, adjusting her aim according to the wind direction.

Then, she closed her eyes again, trying hard to picture the target in her mind.

It seemed as if the target was getting closer and closer to her.

The whistle signaling the start of the shot echoed in her ears.

Without opening her eyes, her hand rapidly let go and the arrow sprang from the bowstring.

Whoosh, it seemed like the arrow was airborne for a longer time this round.

With a thud, the arrow once again hit the target firmly.

Bullseye!

Baili Xia was completely astounded.

She couldn’t believe she had done it again!

Another bullseye!

It was her second time!

While she was doubting earlier whether her first bullseye was merely a stroke of luck, to her surprise, she scored another bullseye this round.

This was indeed an unexpected event; it was truly a surprise.

Mu Ziying and Mu Ziqing were also shocked.

They hadn’t expected Baili Xia to score another bullseye.

They heard from her in the morning that she had only hit the target once before.

But now, Baili Xia had given them a huge surprise.

The two girls ran excitedly over to Baili Xia, hugging her tightly.

They were so thrilled that words failed them for a moment.

They couldn’t care less about the envious and angry looks they were getting from the others.

Let them be angry.

We’re too happy at the moment.

Sima Liuyue glanced their way with an unexpected surprise in her heart.

She had scored a nine this round, yet it was still not as good as Baili Xia’s shot.

She didn’t believe in luck.

She had seen, though, the rapid improvement in Baili Xia’s archery skills.

With her mastery of archery, she could infer that Baili Xia had found the right method to shoot.

It was exceptional for someone to make such vast improvements in such a short time.

No one had done it before.

This seemingly fragile girl was indeed a formidable opponent.

Finally, she found this competition somewhat interesting.

Days without opponents were lonely.

The appearance of this young girl now could at least amuse her.

She only hoped that this was not just a one-time performance from her.

The three girls from the Mu family returned to their seats.

Only then did Mu Ziying and Mu Ziqing start expressing their astonishment.

“Xiaxia, I can’t believe you scored a bullseye again. You really surprised me.” Mu Ziying started chattering as soon as she got back.

Mu Ziqing also wore a broad smile, her confidence growing.

“Yes, Xiaxia, it’s incredible that you hit two bullseyes in a row when you had only hit the target once before!”

“Actually, that one time I hit the target, it was also a bullseye,” Xiaxia said, a bit embarrassed.

Mu Ziqing and Mu Ziying were speechless.

Even though she had only hit the target once, it was a bullseye.

It seemed that she was capable after all; she just lacked training.

“Xiaxia, if you can keep this up, we might still have a chance to catch up,” Mu Ziying said.

“Yes, let’s work hard together,” echoed Mu Ziqing.

Baili Xia nodded emphatically, feeling much more confident now.

Unexpectedly, Bei Tianyou’s method worked so well; was this what they meant by unity of man and bow?

She would have to thank him properly when she got back.

Without his guidance that day, she might have been an encumbrance to the Mu family today.

She glanced at the men’s competition not far away, noticing the relaxed faces of Mu Xiaojiu, Mu Lingchuan and Mu Xiaoyao, whose scores were far ahead.

It seemed that the three supermen over there had no competition and would undoubtedly win the first place.
