Chapter 789: Nervous not even daring to breathe hard_1

Third group, Baili Xia takes the stage.

She had promised not to be nervous before, but now that the scores are even, she was beginning to feel incredibly tense.

It could be said that this moment would determine the outcome with a single arrow.

When there was no hope, there was no pressure, but now, with hope, the pressure was almost killing her!

Sima Liuyue was just as strung up as her, just as tense.

She was the last one from the Mu family, and Sima Liuyue was the last one from the Sima family.

You could say that whoever won, their clan also won.

Standing by the start line, Baili Xia aims at the target, adjusts slightly, and slowly closes her eyes.

This moment, she can seemingly hear the wind, her breathing becoming slower and slower.

For a moment, she was like a statue, not moving at all.

The referee’s instructions echoed in her ears, Baili Xia did not open her eyes, yet the arrow had already flown out.

The short period of time felt incredibly elongated, until she heard the thump of the arrow hitting the target.

Only when the surprised cries of Mu Ziying and Mu Ziqing came from behind, did Baili Xia dare to open her eyes.

Looking at it, she could hardly believe her eyes.

Eight consecutive full circles!

Who?

Who else could be this terrifying!

She made it!

She really made it!

Ziying and Ziqing were so nervous they almost wanted to cry.

It was only at this moment they finally began to ease the tension.

“Ten points, Xiaxia, it’s ten points! You’re incredible!”

They rushed up from their seats and hugged Baili Xia.

If they weren’t short of strength, they would’ve spun her around on the spot.

Now, only Sima Liuyue remains.

If she performed normally, ten points, it would be a tie.

But, if she made even a small mistake…

Sweat was continuously trickling down the palms of Sima Liuyue’s hands.

At this point, a tiny mistake could prove disastrous.

She wanted to calm herself down, but all the members of the Sima family behind her were cheerleading relentlessly.

Cheer up!

Don’t they know that this will only pressure her, offering no help at all?

Who told them to cheer?

Did they all think she was inferior to that little girl?

People around her were all watching her, waiting for her to shoot that arrow.

She had intended to feel it with her heart, because this arrow absolutely could not bear any mistake.

However, everyone was watching her.

If she didn’t shoot, they might think she was out to get that obscure girl…

Taking a deep breath, Sima Liuyue let go of the arrow.

A thump sounded as the arrow hit the target, sticking firmly to it.

Yet, the entire place was hushed, no one even dared to breathe heavily.

Sima Liuyue shot, she…

she hit the nine-ring…

Nine ring!

Sima Liuyue lost!

The Sima family also lost!

They had completely lost!

With the difference of just one point, Mu family’s score just barely surpassed the Sima family’s.

The Mu family won by a slim margin against the other families, securing the first place in the girl’s division.

Though it was only by one point, unlike the Mu family’s dominance in the male division, it was a dream come true for these three girls.

“We won! We took first place!” After being stunned for a few seconds, Mu Ziying suddenly broke out in a high-pitched voice.

“We won, Ziqing, Xiaxia, we… we’re first! We…we actually took the first place!”

Crying in joy, the girl started to bawl uncontrollably.
