Chapter 823: Chapter 823: Chi Enen Really Strived to Become Excellent
The bow was made of aluminum alloy, as long as one’s arm, and its specifications were precisely crafted for competition use. The arrow was only as long as half an arm and fit perfectly onto the bow, aimed at the target a hundred meters away.
For easier scoring, the arrowhead was coated with paint, so that even if the arrow fell, the score it hit could be accurately determined.
Because the Horse Racing Field is a club frequented by rich people.
All the equipment here is top-notch.
There was no need for someone to call out the scores; as soon as an arrow was shot, a statistics machine would automatically announce which ring was hit.
Li Qiyun seemed to play this often, deftly handling and familiarizing herself with the bow upon receiving it, and even performing professional adjustments.
Chi Enen, however, only did a simple checkup.
“How about we play the simplest game, two wins out of three rounds?”
“Okay,” she paused, “Miss Li, you go first.”
Li Qiyun, without any courtesy, stepped up to the line, squinting her eyes, aiming at the target in front.
With a height of 173 centimeters, her tall figure held the bow in a standard pose, exuding heroic spirit; she was a top beauty! Just standing there, she immediately caught the attention of many.
With one aim, the arrow shot out in an instant.
Three seconds later, the machine announced the score.
The entire field fell silent, their surprised gazes turning towards them.
You should know, hitting nine rings is not easy; even professional athletes can only achieve this level at best. Ordinary people can hit at most five or six rings, and that’s already considered pretty good.
Li Qiyun’s first try, and she hit nine rings.
“Who is that woman, so skilled?”
“I don’t know, never seen her before.”
“Judging by her height, could she be an athlete?”
“How possible, such a beautiful athlete would already be famous. And her demeanor doesn’t fit.”
Whispers surrounded them.
As if she hadn’t heard, she walked over to Chi Enen and said with a smile, “It’s your turn.”
Chi Enen didn’t expect Li Qiyun to be so formidable. She stepped up to the line, took a deep breath, calmed her heart, and aimed at the target as well.
The arrow whizzed out with a swoosh.
The whole field quieted down once more, even more silent this time than after Li Qiyun’s shot, all looking at Chi Enen incredulously.
Li Qiyun gave off the aura of a strong woman, decisive and forceful, with her height and grandeur, she hitting nine rings surprised everyone, but it seemed expected somehow.
But Chi Enen was different, she seemed gentle and elegant, standing beside Li Qiyun without the advantage of height. She didn’t look like someone who played archery. Her hitting nine rings did not just surprise others, it shocked them.
What’s going on today, are nine rings not a big deal anymore?
How come everyone’s hitting nine rings right off the bat?
“Not bad at all,” Li Qiyun finally took a good look at her, somewhat surprised.
Chi Enen, neither humble nor arrogant, responded, “Miss Li is very remarkable as well.”
During her year and a half in Habsden, she had learned everything she needed to, especially those skills that were necessary, practicing tirelessly night after night.
Shooting was one of them.
She remembered how her shoulder was rubbed raw in the process of learning to shoot properly, just so that she could reach a level of satisfaction in preparation for the day she wouldn’t embarrass Li Beijue.
Luckily, her efforts were not in vain; they came in handy at the crucial moment.
