Yaoji smiled, "Since that is the case, I will join in the fun. Princess, please."
The arena was placed on the street opposite the Concentrated Fragrance Court. Ye Li walked over and saw a dagger embedded with gems in the middle of the arena from afar. If the opponent did not have great confidence in his archery skills, then he must be rich and have no place to spend it. Let's not talk about the dagger, just the hilt and the scabbard were embedded with rubies, sapphires and emeralds. Just the gems on the scabbard were priceless.
"Qin Feng." Ye Li said softly.
Qin Feng, who was following behind her, came forward and said softly, "Princess, what are your orders?" Ye Li looked at the middle-aged man in the Northern Tribes uniform and said, "Investigate this person's background."
Qin Feng looked at the man on the arena and nodded, "Yes, Princess."
The three of them stood at the back of the crowd. Yun Ting had already jumped onto the arena and looked arrogantly at the Northern Tribes man, "Tell me, how do we fight in this arena?" The Northern Tribes man sized up Yun Ting and laughed, "This young master is so fair and clean. Do you want to fight in the arena? Don't be unable to draw your bow. Our Northern Tribes' bow cannot be compared to your Da Chu State's. "Yun Ting laughed coldly and said," If I don't want to fight, then why am I here? To fight with you? " Walking to the place where the bows and arrows were placed, he casually picked up a bow and an arrow. With a backhand, he shot an arrow towards a thick pillar at the side of the ring. With a 'zeng' sound, the arrow nailed into the pillar and sank into the wood. The spectators below the stage cheered loudly.
The Northern Tribes man also clapped and laughed, "Good, I did not expect this young master to be an expert. Since that is the case, let's begin."
Yun Ting snorted and looked down at the bow in his hand, ignoring the other party. The Northern Tribes man did not mind and laughed, "The rules are simple. This humble one has heard that there is a saying in the Central Plains called 'Sharpshooter from a hundred paces'. We, the Northern Tribes, do not like those elegant things. Forget about shooting a willow leaf from a hundred paces away. Young Master, please look over there. " Following the direction of his finger, there was a towering tree about seventy to eighty steps away from the arena. At this moment, there were countless threads hanging down from the numbers on the tree, and at the end of each thread was a copper coin. It was already night time. Even though the streets were lit up like daytime, it was still not as bright as daytime. If one didn't look carefully, they wouldn't even be able to see the strings that held the coins. The copper coins swayed in the cool breeze, occasionally producing a crisp sound. The man said, "There are a total of thirty copper coins on it. As long as young master shoots all of them down, this saber will be young master's. You only have half an incense's time, ten arrows. "In other words, he had to use ten arrows to shoot down thirty copper coins.
"Yun Ting …" Chen Yun frowned. In terms of archery, he was not inferior to Yun Ting, but to him, it was impossible to shoot down thirty copper coins with ten arrows. These copper coins were hung at different heights, and it was easy to imagine how difficult it would be to shoot down a few of them at the same time. Compared to the so-called 'shooting a willow leaf from a hundred steps away', this was much more difficult. Yun Ting stared at the tree for a while, then snorted and shot an arrow. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the arrow left the bowstring and shot towards the copper coins under the shade of the tree. With a few crisp sounds, one of the copper coins was pierced through the middle. The huge force of the arrow caused the copper coin to shatter into pieces and fall to the ground. The arrow did not stop there, and shot through another thread that held the copper coin before piercing into the tree.
"Good!" The spectators below the stage could not help but cheer. To be able to shoot two in such a dark night, his archery skills were definitely not inferior to the so-called 'shooting a willow leaf from a hundred steps away'. The man from the Northern Tribes standing on the stage did not show any surprise. Yun Ting and Chen Yun on the stage did not say anything. Those who knew archery understood that the further one shot, the harder it was to shoot. Yun Ting's archery skills were not bad, but he might not be able to shoot all thirty copper coins. Seeing Yun Ting nocked his arrow and aimed again, everyone's eyes were fixed on the copper coins under the tree.
When Yun Ting shot his seventh arrow, there were still fifteen copper coins left on the tree. Qin Feng silently appeared behind Ye Li, giving Ye Li a shock. Ye Li turned her head to look at Qin Feng. Qin Feng said in a low voice, "This middle-aged man is indeed from the Northern Tribes, but he is not an ordinary one. He is a capable general under Helian Zhen of the Northern Tribes. He is also known as the number one archer of the Northern Tribes. Furthermore, the Dao that he is using as a prize is not simple. It was given to him by the King of the Northern Tribes when Helian Zhen was still favored. It is said that it can cut through hair with a single blow and is incomparably sharp. "
"Oh?" Ye Li raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "The number one archer of the Northern Tribes has come to Ruyang to set up a stall?" Qin Feng smiled and said, "Him setting up a stall has nothing to do with the King of the Northern Tribes. Ever since Helian Zhen fell out of favor with the King of the Northern Tribes, although there were a few factions that wanted to rope him in, they were all rejected by him. He even gave up his original position in the army. Therefore, he is now just a commoner. As long as he does not violate the laws of the various countries, no one can control where he sets up his stall. " Because the Crown Prince had just been born, when Ruyang City sent out invitations, it had already announced that people from all over the world were welcome to come to the northwest for business or sightseeing. Therefore, these days there were many martial arts experts, Jianghu tourists, and even scholars and poets who set up a competition.
Of course, there were even more merchants and tourists who came after hearing the news.
Ye Li turned her head to look at him and asked with a smile, "So he is one of Yelu Ye's men?"
Qin Feng nodded and said, "You can say that." Ye Li laughed coldly, "What a good Yelu Ye, and also the Seventh Prince of the Northern Tribes!" Yelu Ye clearly knew that Ruyang was where the Mohist army and Black Cloud Cavalry were stationed, but he still sent someone to cause trouble. Didn't he just want people to know that the archery skills of the Mohist army and Black Cloud Cavalry were only so-so? Seeing Ye Li become angry, Qin Feng asked in a low voice, "Wang Fei, how many people should this subordinate send to deal with him?" Even Qi Lin did not have many people who could achieve such a demanding archery skill, but fortunately, it was not impossible. Right now, among the hundreds of Qi Lin, there could be seven or eight who would accept the challenge. But in his previous life, there might not be anyone in the Northern Tribes who had the strength of this person in front of him. Otherwise, how could he be the number one archer of the Northern Tribes? Ye Li shook her head, indifferently saying, "This kind of trash doesn't need a Qilin to make a move, maybe Yelu Ye just wants to meet a Qilin?" How could a Qilin be someone that anyone could meet whenever they wanted to? The so-called special forces, no matter what era it was, were synonymous with mystery. If everyone could guess their battle strength, then what was the point of being a secret trump card?
"I'm afraid that Officer Yun is going to lose." Qin Feng pointed at Yun Ting who was preparing to shoot the last arrow. There were still thirteen copper coins hanging on the tree. Yun Ting would not be able to shoot all of them down in one shot.
Ye Li smiled lightly, "It's a good thing for young people to have some spirit. Losing to the number one archer of the Northern Tribes, he is not wronged. "
Qin Feng nodded, "Wang Fei is right."
When Yun Ting's last arrow left the bowstring, he actually shot out three copper coins at once. Even so, it was clear that Yun Ting had lost this round. The young handsome face was as cold as ice, and there was a trace of depression that was hard to detect. The man from the Northern Tribes smiled, "This young master, you have lost. Fifty taels. " Yun Ting's face darkened as he took out a fifty taels silver ingot and handed it to the man from the Northern Tribes. Then he turned and jumped off the stage.
