"BOOM!" The loud and clear sound of gongs and drums rang out as the second round of the riding compet.i.tion officially began.A dozen gra.s.s targets instantly appeared in the originally calm outer circle.
Everyone immediately raised their bows and aimed at the gra.s.s target, but no one dared to shoot. This was because each person only had ten arrows, and those gra.s.s targets were not motionless. The speed at which they were moving was so fast that it was difficult for one to see them. If he wanted to hit it, not only his eyes, but also the horse he was riding had to be fast. It was a great test of vision and riding skills.
Bai Li didn"t raise her bow, but raised her eyes to observe the situation of the outer circle.
The outer ring was large, and his eyes were yellow. The artemisia gra.s.s in her calves was already withered yellow, close to the color of the gra.s.s targets, and it was a great test of vision. There was a tall yellow shrub in the middle, and from the inside, one could barely see the situation behind it.
Bai Li"s lips curved into a smile. It was a little difficult, but not too boring. She liked it.
Everyone had found the right opportunity to attack, and most of the people had already released half of their arrows, but Bai Li still had not moved.
Everyone in the audience had initially extended their necks, waiting to see Bai Li"s brilliant performance, but seeing that she did not make a move, they all started to discuss amongst themselves.
"What"s wrong with the Miss Bai? The gra.s.s targets in front of us are almost all shot up."
"Isn"t it? What exactly is she waiting for? "
"Does she not know how to ride?"
"It might be possible, but it"s a pity about that powerful archery skill."
Bai Qingyan and the Rong family were also worried.
On the other hand, Murong Shuofeng, Xue Yuanlang and the others were not the least bit nervous.
Murong Shuofeng raised his eyebrows in interest, "I wonder what beaver is planning this time?"
Looking at Bai Li"s calm and composed face below, the corner of Xue Yuanlang"s lips slightly rose, "This subject has a feeling that it will definitely surpa.s.s what I had just shown you."
"Haha, we can"t wait to see beaver"s performance."
Seeing that Bai Li had not moved at all, Yun Shaoning became anxious, "Junior sister, shoot quickly, the gra.s.s target in front is only a once, if you can"t get it, you will have to shoot at the back of the shrubs."
The gra.s.s target behind the shrub was not only far away from them but also moved much faster. Moreover, most people could not see it, but only the crown prince and Xue Qingyan, the two monsters that were able to hit the heart. However, because of the difficulty, if the gra.s.s targets behind the shrubs were hit, they would have double rings. Therefore, there were many people who took the risk of shooting at the gra.s.s targets behind the shrubs.
For example, because Bai Ruoyu"s first round of results were invalid, if she wanted to turn the tables around, her only chance would be to shoot the next double-ringed gra.s.s target. It was a pity that although her archery and riding skills were not bad, her eyesight and hearing were still lacking. Most of the rings she hit were around six rings.
Seeing that everyone had finished shooting their arrows, Bai Li lifted her hand to remove the red ribbon on her ponytail and covered her eyes.
Everyone was stunned seeing Bai Li"s actions.
"What is she doing?"
"That"s right. Originally, his eyesight was insufficient, but now, he"s even covering it with his eyes. Isn"t this even more so?"
Yun Shaoning blinked his eyes foolishly, he looked at Xue Qingyan and asked, "Junior sister, what are you trying to do?"
"Don"t talk." Xue Qingyan smiled, looking at Bai Li"s ears that were constantly trembling with admiration.
Yun Shaoning frowned, following Xue Qingyan"s line of sight, he immediately understood. So, the little Junior Martial Sister only relied on her hearing to shoot. That"s right, with her height, it was impossible to see the gra.s.s targets behind the shrubs. The only way was to rely on her hearing.
Bai Li listened for a while before she suddenly rode her horse and galloped in a certain direction.
"It moved, it moved …" Everyone in the stands stood up in excitement at this mere movement.
Bai Li chased after the gra.s.s target behind the shrubs while sensing the opportunity. She suddenly tilted her head, raised her hand, and shot an arrow with her bow. Whoos.h.!.+ The arrow flew out like lightning.
Everyone"s heart tensed up, their eyes following Bai Li"s arrow.
"Boom!" The sharp arrow firmly hit the target and hit the heart of the target.
"Miss Bai, twenty rings." The servant"s voice sounded from afar, causing Bai Li to smile slightly.
"Ou …" The stands erupted in cheers and cheers in the blink of an eye.
Bai Ruoyu"s face instantly became ugly, her jade hands tightly gripped the bow in her hands, her eyes filled with unwillingness and hatred.
Murong Lingshan and Puyang Bingwei"s expression were also very ugly. The two of them glared at Bai Li hatefully, wis.h.i.+ng that they could flay her skin and tear her bones apart.
Not affected in the slightest by the cheers from the stands, another arrow flew after the first, landing right on the heart.
In the stands, the Ninth Prince Murong Ran looked down at Bai Li who was flying up and down in surprise, "Third brother, is that Big Brother"s wife?"
Murong Yun also looked at Bai Li, nodding in praise, "Yes, my future wife."
Murong Ran"s eyes suddenly lit up, "Sister-in-law is going to be very powerful in the future, I also want to find such a powerful wife in the future."
"Haha …" Murong Shuofeng immediately laughed out loud, "Xiao Jiu is ambitious, you know.
Below, Murong Xun looked at Bai Li without blinking, his face filled with pride.
He didn"t know when, but his eyes had become habitually fixed on her. Every move she made, every frown and smile, had a fatal attraction for him. He tried to force himself not to look at her, but it was impossible. Some people are destined to be the mud in your life. No matter how much you struggle, you will never be able to break free from your fate.
Seeing Bai Li"s two arrows. .h.i.tting the center of her heart, Murong Lingshan became anxious. The few of them looked at each other, and immediately started running around Bai Li.
The wild sound of the hooves made Bai Li"s small black horse raise its head and roar.
Yun Shaoning looked and became anxious, "Not good, they are trying to affect our junior."
As Yun Shaoning said this, he wanted to help, but was stopped by Xue Qingyan.
"Don"t go, believe her." Xue Qingyan looked at Bai Li who was trapped in the center, his eyes full of determination.
Hearing the wild sounds of the hooves, Bai Li"s lips curled up in a cold smile. She no longer rode her horse to follow the gra.s.s target and calmly stood where she was.
Suddenly, Bai Li turned her head, and with lightning speed, pulled her bow and shot an arrow. Whoos.h.!.+ The arrow shot out. A few seconds later it firmly hit the target.
"Miss Bai, twenty rings."
Bai Li smiled slightly, raised the bow in her hand and quickly pulled the bow to shoot. Six arrows in a row hit the heart.
Murong Lingshan looked at the last arrow in Bai Li"s hand. He was so anxious that his eyes were red. The woman understood immediately, her sinister eyes squinted dangerously as she suddenly raised her bow and aimed it at the back of Bai Li"s head.
"Be careful!"
"Be careful, leopard!"
Following two anxious screams, the woman"s spiritual energy arrow flew out.
