In front of her is a quiet hilltop, and around her are endless grasslands.
The mountain wind blew the knee-high grass, undulating like wheat waves.
This is a very artistic and poetic picture, but an arrow falling from the sky broke the peaceful picture and made the picture even more epic.
This arrow was shot from the mountain in front of her and fell between the sky and the earth. The arrow was black and drew a black line in the blue sky. However, because the speed was too fast, it stirred up waves around the arrow body.
The white air flow formed a faint white wave, like a falling comet.
After this arrow fell, another arrow shot out from the mountain, once again drawing black traces and white vortexes in the sky, and fell hard into the wilderness somewhere.
The female professor with slightly messy hair raised her head slightly and looked at the traces in the sky, then continued to move forward.
"Professor An."
Lin Xi, who was practicing archery in the mountains, had already met An Keyi. Because she knew that An Keyi was higher than Tong Wei, she watched the young female professor go up the mountain and appeared in front of her.
When the female professor saluted, apart from being a little curious about why she came here, she was not surprised at all.
The bookish An Keyi saluted Tong Wei, Lin Xi and Bian Linghan, then looked at Tong Wei and asked in her usual reading-like tone: "How are they practicing?"
Tong Wei took a look at the body of the black longbow, which had been slightly deformed due to the excessive load-bearing force, after being fired several times by Lin Xi and Bian Linghan, and said solemnly: "Bian Linghan's test shot first."
If so, barely five or six out of ten arrows can hit the target five hundred steps below."
An Keyi reached out and tucked a few strands of her hair behind her ears. After thinking for a while, she looked up at Lin Xi and said, "Just shoot me with all your strength and see."
Lin Xi, who had been very familiar with An Keyi for a long time and had seen An Keyi's strength in the fire scene, did not understand the true intention of An Keyi's words, but both he and Bian Linghan knew very well that now he and Bian Linghan
What Bian Linghan practiced was to use the strength of a soul master to deal with a soul master, and An Keyi's cultivation was obviously far above that of a soul master, so he naturally knew that his arrow would not cause any harm to An Keyi.
threat, so he just looked at the female professor curiously and asked: "Is it right here?"
"Right here." An Keyi nodded, then turned around and walked out for nearly a hundred steps, and said to Lin Xi, "That's enough."
Lin Xi nodded, didn't say much, concentrated on firing her bow, and shot out an arrow accurately, hitting An Keyi's left shoulder.
An Keyi didn't move at all. There was a faint yellow light flashing on her left shoulder. With a "pop" sound, Lin Xi's arrow left a hole in her college professor's black robe, but it fell directly and feebly.
He came down. An Keyi's body only shook slightly, and there was not much damage at all.
"Shoot another arrow." Before Lin Xi could ask anything, An Keyi nodded to him and said.
Lin Xi held the feather again, pulled the string, and shot an arrow at An Keyi's right shoulder.
He didn't want to play with symmetry, he just thought that even if he was wearing the black armor in the academy's trial valley, if his body would not be damaged, the impact of the arrow would always cause some pain. If the two arrows hit the same
The position would naturally make it more painful, so he aimed at An Keyi's right shoulder.
When the pitch-black arrow landed on An Keyi's right shoulder, there was still a yellow light flashing on An Keyi's shoulder. However, what made Bian Linghan scream in surprise and Lin Xi was shocked in disbelief was,
The arrow did not fall, but a flash of blood burst out on An Keyi's shoulder.
Tong Wei's brows raised slightly, but he remained silent and didn't say anything.
The tail feathers of the arrow trembled slightly. An Keyi stretched out Bai Shengsheng's left hand, frowned slightly, pulled out the arrow, applied medicine to stop the bleeding very skillfully, and then threw the arrow back to Lin Xi.
"Previously, the soul power I spread outside my body was roughly equivalent to the soul power of an intermediate soul master plus the strength of ordinary soft armor. This time, the soul power I spread outside my body is equivalent to the strength of a junior soul master who just broke through." Look.
Lin Xi frowned deeply, and An Keyi spoke again in a tone as if he was reading without much twists and turns.
"Thank you, teacher." Lin Xi's heart froze, and she bowed solemnly to An Keyi first, then looked down at the blood on the arrow.
He and Bian Linghan are both very smart, so An Keyi just said that sentence, and both of them understood that An Keyi did this to give them the most intuitive impression.
Since both the current Saint and the instructors of Thunder College feel that real fighting can improve combat power the fastest, then for this competition between the two colleges, the five freshmen selected by Thunder College have the weapons in their hands.
If the blade is used, I am afraid that it will be stained with more fresh blood. They will naturally know very well how the other party will react when their own blade kills a practitioner of the same level or slightly higher than themselves.
How the blood will splash out.
However, Lin Xi and Bian Linghan did not have such an intuitive impression.
The two of them had no idea how much damage their current arrows would cause when they actually landed on the cultivators, what kind of wounds they would leave on the other party's body, and how much blood they would cause the other party to bleed.
Tong Wei is naturally very clear about the power of arrows, but it is just Tong Wei's words, which is naturally not as good as An Ke's words and deeds, and the memory of the blood flowing on his body is vivid and profound.
Lin Xi looked at the pitch-black arrow in her hand. There was blood on the two-knuckle length arrow, but there was almost no trace of blood on the pitch-black arrow shaft.
He took a deep breath and looked at An Keyi's shoulder. There was a flower-like wound on An Keyi's arrow. When he looked, An Keyi raised his arm and faced him.
He waved his hand.
This made him and Bian Linghan very clear that with the bows and arrows he and Bian Linghan were using at the moment, they could penetrate the body of a junior soul master to a depth of about two knuckles, but unless they could hit the fatal spot, they would probably
It is impossible to completely affect the opponent's combat power. And if he and Bian Linghan face an opponent with an intermediate soul master's cultivation, it is probably impossible for him and Bian Linghan to be each other's opponent in this face-to-face situation.
"Don't be discouraged. After all, this is just a competition with a lot of limitations... With your current cultivation level, you can't just use this standard bow and arrow. Our academy has more powerful bows suitable for your current use. If you really rush to the place or
It is the frontier troops who are performing the mission. With your cultivation and archery skills, if you use the bows and arrows that are most suitable for you now, even high-level soul masters may be severely injured by you. You must understand that powerful archers are always practitioners.
The most feared existence." Looking at Lin Xi and Bian Linghan who were moved by his own attempt to test the arrow, but also a little discouraged because of the lack of power, An Keyi taught calmly: "It's precisely because
At this point, many practitioners do not act alone. Even some powerful archers on the other side are surrounded by practitioners who specifically protect their own archers in order to prevent assassination from the other side's archers. And this is exactly what the academy is doing.
The reason why you two need to compete at the same time."
"Students understand." Lin Xi took a deep breath. Looking at the blood on An Keyi's shoulder and the dark arrow, he clearly understood that this was the completely different difference between Vice President Xia and some people. Just like
The fresh blood at the moment made him feel humanity and friendship, and made him feel even more precious about life. However, those who use the blood of prisoners and captives to help their cultivation may lack that feeling more and more in their hearts.
He had compassion for the weak and respect for life, so when Helan Yuexi saw him for the first time that day, she just thought he might be a threat, and her hostility immediately turned into murderous intent.
There are many people in this world who can be killed, but some people are not necessarily killed.
"Based on the lethality of the ordinary bows and arrows you are using now, if I were at the foot of the mountain at this moment and you used the method of falling to the moon to assassinate me, if I were a junior soul master, my body would be pierced." An Keyi
He looked at Lin Xi and Bian Linghan, then turned to look at Tong Wei and said: "They are joining forces. Lin Xi, who takes the second shot, adjusts according to Bian Linghan's shot. The accuracy should be good, but when the other party is alert, he quickly
When evading, the farther the distance, the harder it is for Lin Xi to hit the opponent."
After a slight pause, An Keyi frowned slightly and said slowly: "I just received the news that the emperor will arrive at the Four Seasons Plain tomorrow. What do you think of them?"
Emperor Yunqin, who represents the highest power and majesty in the world, is coming tomorrow?
Lin Xi and Bian Linghan both took a deep breath, but they still couldn't calm down the shock in their hearts. This was one day earlier than Tong Wei expected.
"The current situation is a bit embarrassing." Tong Wei's face suddenly turned gloomy. Because it might be a matter of real life and death, he couldn't tell any lies in front of Lin Xi and Bian Linghan. He looked at An Keyi
He replied coldly: "Although Lin Xi has made rapid progress... but the time is still too short. With his current archery skills, if the height exceeds 300 steps, it will be difficult to hit the opponent accurately... It's the same as what you just said.
, the opponent will definitely not stand stupidly waiting to be shot by him, so he and Bian Linghan may only have one chance to take action. But if the shot is fired from a height of 300 steps, if the opponent's cultivation level exceeds that of an intermediate soul master, this arrow will
Then at least it won’t make the other party completely incapacitated.”
An Keyi nodded: "The height of three hundred steps is indeed not high enough."
Lin Xi thought for a while and asked sincerely: "If we shoot an intermediate soul master on this 300-step-high hill, how much trauma will it leave on his body?"
"It will probably be deeper than my wound." An Keyi stretched out his little finger and made a gesture. Lin Xi and Bian Linghan could see clearly that it was about the length of an extra fingernail. The deeper the wound, the better.
For practitioners, it is not a fatal place, after all, it cannot completely cause serious damage.
"How many steps does it take for an arrow to penetrate the body of an intermediate soul master?" Lin Xi's eyes flashed slightly, and then she asked seriously.
Tong Wei glanced at Lin Xi and said, "At least five hundred and fifty steps."
"Five hundred and fifty steps?" Bian Linghan's face suddenly turned pale. After practicing archery skills for these days, she naturally knew very well that arrows shot with the Falling Moon Archery skill were like throwing stones in the air.
Falling, like a meteorite traveling from the sky, with a height of 550 steps, the actual distance traveled in the air is far more than 550 steps. The slight deviation will be unknown when it reaches the bottom.
.
Now Lin Xi can shoot more accurately than she does, but she can only shoot at a height of three hundred steps without making big deviations. When she reaches more than four hundred steps, it is almost impossible to hit the opponent with one arrow very accurately.
Any possibility.
"Since there is no other choice, we can only practice more." Looking at Tong Wei and An Keyi who were obviously worried, Lin Xi calmed down and said this.
