Jiang Fan did his duty, left the table and came out, stepped in and saluted and said: "The general is willing!"

Tang Yin nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Li Dan and asked with a smile: "Sir, I wonder if General Lin is also willing to compete?"

People had asked him about it, and Li Dan could no longer shirk it. He looked at Lin Ning, who was next to him, and the latter nodded slightly at him, indicating that he could give Jiang Fan a try.

After receiving Lin Ning's confirmation, Li Dan felt relieved, raised his hands to Tang Yin and said, "It is better to obey orders than to be respectful. General Lin will be embarrassed in front of your highnesses!"

Following his words, Lin Ning stood up, walked around the table, came to the center of the hall, and stood next to Jiang Fan. Lin Ning and Jiang Fan were about the same age, and both looked to be in their early thirties.

They look alike, but their temperaments are completely different.

Lin Ning is tall and burly, with a Western face, big ring eyes, and a lion's mouth underneath. He looks mighty and majestic, giving people a feeling of power without anger.

Jiang Fan, on the other hand, is of medium build, neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, with a face as white as jade and delicate features. He looks more like a scholar than a military general, but as long as you get close to him, you will always feel a sense of warmth.

There is a small v-cold air that seems to be there but not there.

The two of them can be regarded as the top warriors of Feng and Zhen. Now they have to test their archery skills in front of a large audience. For everyone present, including the kings of various countries, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to open their eyes.

People put down their wine glasses one after another, and the smiles on their faces slowly faded away. Everyone looked serious, widened their eyes, and looked intently at Generals Jiang Fan and Lin Ning in the center of the hall.

Lin Ning raised his hands to the kings and asked, "I wonder how your highnesses would like General Jiang and the last general to compete?"

Yue Ze, Li Xin, and Ling Shuang all turned their attention to Tang Yin. The latter smiled, picked up an empty plate on the table, and threw it into the air. After feeling it was okay, he said: "You two stand

Shoot arrows inside the palace, and someone else throws a dish outside the palace. Whoever shoots accurately wins."

What's so difficult about this? Lin Ning and Jiang Fan both responded: "I will obey your orders!"

Tang Yin casually called a guard and whispered a few words. The guard picked up a few empty plates and ran out quickly.

When he ran outside the gate of the main hall, he stood still, looked back at Tang Yin, and asked him if he could stay here. Tang Yin shook his head and waved to the guard.

Seeing this, the guard had no choice but to retreat until he reached the steps. He still didn't hear the king calling him to stop him. He was startled and secretly looked behind him. He had already reached the steps. If he stepped back further, he would have to retreat to the bottom of the steps.

.

Seeing that the guard was standing still, Tang Yin asked dissatisfiedly: "Why is he not moving?"

Although his voice was not high, there was silence in the hall at this time, and his voice could still be heard outside the hall. "Report to the king, the place where the villain is standing is already the limit. If you retreat further, you will have to retreat down the steps.

.”

Tang Yin smiled leisurely and said: "The king asked you to retreat, and you just retreat. Where does all this nonsense come from?"

The guard had no choice but to follow the steps and walk all the way to the square outside the main hall. It was at least a hundred and fifty steps away from the main hall, especially now that it was dark again. He had to shoot an arrow in the main hall and hit the square outside.

The difficulty of throwing a small plate made everyone present speechless.

If Tang Yin's arrangement was deliberately difficult, it doesn't make sense at all. After all, Feng Jiang Fan was also participating in the competition. But if Tang Yin really wanted to test their archery skills, wouldn't it be too much?

Lin Ning had never done such a novel competition. He squinted at Jiang Fan beside him. He was calm, with his eyes lowered and motionless, as if the things around him had nothing to do with him. He smiled slightly and asked

Said: "General Jiang, please go first!"

When Jiang Fan heard this, he finally raised his gaze and said calmly: "General Lin is the host, and I am the guest. How can it be that the guest takes precedence over the host?"

After hearing Jiang Fan's words of humility, Lin Ning was no longer polite. He waved to his entourage: "Bring me the bow!"

Following his words, a Zhenguo guard came to Lin Ning holding a bow and arrows. Lin Ning's bows and arrows were all made of steel, especially the bow, which was said to be a treasure that had been refined for eighty years and was named Blood Lian Zhu.

.

(Although iron is hard, there are too many impurities in it, which makes it brittle and easy to break. Burning the iron red, hammering it to remove the impurities, and then cooling it is a refining process. The idiom "a hundred refinings make steel" comes from this.

.But one hundred refinements is too difficult to complete. In ancient times, even fifty refinements would take more than ten years. Above ten refinements can be called fine steel.) Speaking of Lin Ning, he held the bow in his hand and followed it.

The spiritual mist emanating from the palm merged with Xue Lian Zhu, and the shape of the steel bow was also changing. In just the blink of an eye, it turned into a pure white spiritual bow.

He casually pulled out a steel arrow, flicked it to spiritualize, then twisted the bow and loaded the arrow, took a deep breath, and said seriously: "Your Highness, the King of Wind, the general is ready!"

Tang Yin smiled and nodded to Ah San and Ah Si behind him. Ah San stood up and shouted loudly outside the hall: "Throw"

The guard standing in the square used all his strength to throw the copper plate in his hand into the air.

With such a long distance and the sky being so dark, most people in the hall could not even see clearly, let alone shooting arrows at the plate.

Just as everyone craned their necks to look out, wondering if the guard had thrown out the plate, Lin Ning narrowed his eyes sharply, exerted force on his arms, and instantly released the fingers that were tightly holding the arrow, and heard something in his ears.

With a whooshing sound, the spiritual arrow left the string and flew out of the hall like a bolt of lightning.

The speed of the arrow was so fast that it exceeded the limit that the naked eye could reach. People were still in a daze. Jiang Fan didn't know when he had held the purple gold bow in his hands. The moment Lin Ning shot the spiritual arrow, he also

He twisted his bow and nocked an arrow, followed Lin Ning, and shot the purple gold arrow.

The spiritual arrow shot by Lin Ning seemed to have eyes. In the night, it nailed the small copper plate upright. With a crisp clang sound, the spiritual arrow penetrated the copper plate and hung it on the arrow.

body, and then without losing strength, he was nailed to the stone pillar of the square with a loud click.

This is not the most amazing thing. Just as Lin Ning's spiritual arrow was hung with a copper plate and nailed to the stone pillar, Jiang Fan's purple gold arrow fell over. This arrow actually hit the tail of Lin Ning's spiritual arrow. Its power was so strong that

He squeezed the spiritual arrow through the stone pillar, and with a clang, it fell to the ground from the other side of the stone pillar, replaced by Jiang Fan's purple gold arrow, with a copper plate hung on the arrow body and nailed to the stone pillar.

When the subordinates ran back to the main hall and reported the situation to everyone, the princes, generals and ministers present were all shocked.

It was not easy for Lin Ning to hit the plate, but Jiang Fan's arrow was able to hit the small point at the end of the arrow. His archery skills had undoubtedly reached a level of perfection.

Everyone in the hall was stunned for a while before they came to their senses, and then burst into thunderous applause. Even Li Dan couldn't help but stand up and sighed sincerely: "General Jiang is really good at archery.

!”

The expression on Jiang Fan's face did not change. He was still neither happy nor angry, neither cold nor hot. He bowed slightly, nodded and said, "Young master, I'm sorry."

At this time, Lin Ning's face was a little unnatural. Jiang Fan didn't wait for the second plate, but he wanted to shoot his own. He didn't shoot his arrow first, but he chased his own arrow. How could he be fighting with him?

Those who competed in archery were just here to compete with him! Lin Ning, who was arrogant and arrogant, had been aroused by Jiang Fan, and was determined not to admit defeat. He secretly gritted his teeth, turned around and said sternly to Tang Yin: "

Your Highness, King Feng, I would like to compete with General Jiang again! But how about throwing three plates this time?"

Tang Yin looked up and smiled and said: "Since General Lin asked so, let's compete again!"

After hearing this, everyone present became energetic. Just now, they only shot one plate, which was so wonderful. Now they have to shoot three at the same time. I don't know what incredible archery skills Jiang Fan and Lin Ning are going to use!

Lin Ning pulled out three steel arrows from the quiver and held them between his fingers. Then he turned to look at Jiang Fan and saw that there was only one arrow on the latter's purple gold bow. He couldn't help but ask: "Why?"

?General Jiang wants to shoot through three plates with one arrow?"

Jiang Fan just looked at him indifferently and didn't say anything in reply. He was silent. Jiang Fan remained lifeless and didn't speak. Lin Ning felt unsure. Did Jiang Fan really plan to shoot through three plates with one arrow?

To be honest, if this is the case, he has never seen such mysterious archery skills.

Just when Lin Ning was in a state of confusion, Tang Yin smiled and asked, "General Lin, are you ready?"

"Reporting to Your Highness, the general is ready!"

Tang Yin winked at Ah San. The latter quickly ran to the door of the hall and shouted outside: "Three plates, throw them together!"

Following Ah San's high-pitched shouts, the guards in the square immediately picked up three copper plates and threw them into the air.

When the plate flew up to the same height as the main hall, Lin Ning clearly felt Jiang Fan beside him emitting a human spiritual pressure. Fearing that Jiang Fan would take the lead, Lin Ning took the lead in shooting an arrow, bang, the bowstring flicked, and three

The spiritual arrows flew out in unison.

But at the same time, Jiang Fan also shot his arrow, but his target was not the three plates thrown up outside the hall, but Li Dan who was sitting aside and watching intently.

The ministers and generals of the Zheng Kingdom who were present never dreamed that Jiang Fan would suddenly attack Prince Li Dan while competing with Lin Ning in archery.

The distance between the two sides was too close, and the speed of Jiang Fan's arrow was too fast. Almost as soon as the bowstring sounded, the purple gold arrow nailed Li Dan's chest.

Pounce! The purple gold arrow penetrated Li Dan's body directly. There was still a look of confusion on his face, but his body fell over on his back due to the momentum of the arrow.
Chapter completed!
