"Buzz …"
As he was thinking, the three balls of light on the hill suddenly shone brightly, turning from a weak white light to a blinding golden light.
In an instant, everyone at the foot of the hill closed their eyes, and those who attacked the hill stopped in their tracks.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh …
At the same time, countless arrows shot down from the hill. Each arrow was three feet long and had countless sharp barbs. There were also mysterious runes on them.
"Talisman arrows!"
Among the rising stars present, the only one who could still open his eyes was Zhou Yang.
This was the benefit of having strong mental power.
Xiao Lin looked at Zhou Yang and nodded, his eyes filled with admiration. He was at the Mercury realm, so his mental power was naturally not lower than Zhou Yang's.
"Retreat, retreat!"
A martial artist from the army shouted. In an instant, the people on the hillside turned around and retreated, but there were still many people who fell on the hillside.
The rain of arrows only stopped when everyone returned to the foot of the hill.
"What is this? What is this?"
He Yunfeng said angrily.
"I told you, these are dazzling golden balls. They can make you invisible," Xiao Lin said with a smile.
"Then why did you let us go?"
"You wanted to go yourself." Xiao Lin's expression turned serious. He turned back to look at the military inspector. "He Yunfeng disobeyed orders and acted on his own. How should he be punished according to military law?"
"Be … be executed!" the military inspector said with an unnatural expression.
"What …"
He Yunfeng was immediately stunned.
"Although it's a test, the military has its rules. You acted on your own and caused our side to suffer heavy losses. Four of our rising stars died. If I don't execute you, I won't be able to explain myself," Xiao Lin said with a fake smile.
"General Xiao, I … I was just impulsive." He Yunfeng was afraid. He knew that the military did not go back on their words. Xiao Lin was from the imperial city, so he had no qualms about killing him.
"Alright, since it's your first offense, I won't kill you. However, you have to render two third-class military merits to make up for your crime."
He Yunfeng heaved a sigh of relief. Although he had to render two third-class military merits, it was nothing compared to his life.
Everyone fell silent for a moment.
In one attack, they had lost four rising stars and six warriors from the military. The hundred-man team had lost ten people.
This was unacceptable to the proud and arrogant new stars.
"This is your first lesson. Underestimating the enemy will lead to defeat!"
Xiao Lin scanned the crowd and waved his hand. A warrior in black armor took out a pitch-black bow.
"This bow weighs a thousand pounds, and the arrows weigh thirty pounds. It requires the strength of one tiger to fully draw the bow, and the strength of two tigers can be freely controlled. Is there anyone who can shoot down the three dazzling golden balls with this bow?"
Everyone was stunned. They looked at the dazzling golden balls on the hill again. The golden balls had already returned to normal. The light was not strong. They could clearly see them swaying in the air.
Li Moling shook his head and said, "This place is five hundred feet away from the Dazzling Golden Ball. It's not a problem to shoot it down, but it's impossible to shoot down the swaying Dazzling Golden Ball …"
"That's right. Although the general's bow and arrows are powerful, the Nanman Kingdom warriors are not to be trifled with. Even if we can shoot the Dazzling Golden Ball, they will block it."
"That's why we have to hit them in one shot. Otherwise, they'll definitely activate the Dazzling Golden Ball again. By then, we won't be able to shoot them even if we want to."
The rising stars argued. None of them dared to be the first to try.
"Anyone who is able to shoot down one Dazzling Golden Ball will be awarded a second-class merit. Shooting down all three will be awarded a third-class merit," Xiao Lin said again.
"I'll do it!"
As soon as He Yunfeng heard that there would be military merits, he stepped forward.
"You …" Xiao Lin frowned.
"That's right. I'll do it …"
He Yunfeng stepped forward and grabbed the bow in Xiao Lin's hand.
"Alright. I'll give you a chance."
"I won't fail this time."
He Yunfeng walked to a high point with the bow. Then, he nocked an arrow.
"I, He Yunfeng, was born in Border City. I've been practicing archery since I was young. I can even kill a bird flying in the sky with one arrow."
With that, He Yunfeng's eyes narrowed and he let go.
Whoosh!
The black arrow pierced through the air and reached the hill in the blink of an eye.
As expected, He Yunfeng was not bragging. His arrow accurately hit the dazzling golden ball. However …
The dazzling golden ball only paused for a moment before it started swaying again.
Hit 27037;} 5h9N
It was unscathed.
"He Yunfeng, do you think the dazzling golden ball is a bird? It's made of mysterious ice. When the arrow hits it, it has to reach the strength of a tiger," Guo Dazhuang said disdainfully.
"The strength of a tiger? How is that possible? There's a distance of 1,500 feet between the two. My arrow will have less than 10% of its power left. You're talking nonsense," He Yunfeng said angrily.
"Guo Dazhuang is right. You've failed." Xiao Lin shook his head.
Xiao Lin's words made He Yunfeng's face turn red. For a moment, the hand that was holding the bow trembled.
"Trash from Dragonwu Country, I'm afraid you can't even satisfy a virgin with that bit of strength. You want to shoot our golden ball? Go back and drink your milk …" A mocking voice came from the opposite hill, followed by a burst of laughter.
"Preposterous!"
The rising stars were so angry that their faces turned red. A few girls even stomped their feet.
"I'll try …"
At that moment, Zhou Shaoyu walked to He Yunfeng's side. "Brother He, let me do it."
"Hmph!"
He Yunfeng was a little unhappy, but he still gave the bow to Zhou Shaoyu.
Zhou Shaoyu pulled out three arrows, nocked them on the bow, and shot them out with lightning speed.
"Good arrows!"
Xiao Lin cheered loudly before the arrows were even out.
As expected, Zhou Shaoyu's three arrows instantly locked onto two of the three golden balls. Moreover, the power was definitely enough. If there were no accidents, two of the three golden balls would definitely explode.
However, at that moment, a female Barbarian Kingdom warrior on the hill also took out her bow.
Buzz …
A phantom image of a bow and arrow appeared behind the Barbarian Kingdom female warrior. In the next moment, three arrows flew toward Zhou Shaoyu's arrow, cutting it in half.
"Arrow Star Soul!"
This time, even Xiao Lin frowned.
The most feared thing in the army was not the possessor of a Sword Star Soul, but the Arrow Star Soul.
Those who possessed the Arrow Star Soul had a much higher attainment in archery than ordinary people. They had almost never missed and could be said to be the ghosts of the army. At that moment, it was almost impossible for the Barbarian Kingdom warriors to use bows and arrows to break the golden balls.
"Retreat, give up the battle." Xiao Lin shook his head.
Give up …
Everyone revealed expressions of dissatisfaction. More importantly, the Barbarian Kingdom warriors on the other side began to curse again.
"Ladies of the Dragon Martial Country, come to us. The warriors of your country are no different from women. They're not worthy of you."
"You can't even shoot accurately and you're still a man. Don't tell me that all of you are gay …"
In the face of the Barbarian Kingdom warriors' insults, the group of rising stars clenched their fists. No one was willing to leave.
"Brother Yang, are you confident?"
At that moment, Guo Dazhuang whispered in Zhou Yang's ear.
"The other side has the Arrow Star Soul. I'm not 100% confident." Zhou Yang shook his head.
"Leave the Arrow Star Soul to me. I have a way to deal with him." Guo Dazhuang smiled slyly.
Zhou Yang was stunned. After pondering for a while, he said, "Alright, let's try."
