Thousands of students from the academy lined up in a row on the grassland.
"What a coincidence, Brother Fang!" The young duke greeted Fang Yun from across Qiao Juze.
Fang Yun turned to look. The young duke had a kind smile on his face. To his left was Wei Yu, whom Fang Yun wanted to expel from the academy.
The young duke said, "Normally, when I enter the Lingyan Pavilion, everyone is in the pavilion. It consumes too much talent. If I enter the Lingyan Pavilion together, I can save the talent of the Holy Temple. However, I didn't tell Brother Fang in advance. I hope Brother Fang can forgive me. "
Fang Yun looked at the young duke and said with a cold smile, "You don't have to be so polite. You won't be staying in Jingguo Academy for long. I may need your forgiveness in the future!"
"Then you have to pass the five pavilions first! Not only do you have to pass the five pavilions, but you have to have more chips than Wei Yu! "The young duke's smile was still there, but his tone was colder than Fang Yun's.
Wei Yu said, "Don't worry, young duke! I've had the ability to enter the upper house for a long time. Maybe I can pass the sixth pavilion today and enter the upper house! "
"Stop talking nonsense. We'll see in the Lingyan Pavilion!" Fang Yundao said.
Qiao Juze said to Fang Yundao, "We won't argue with them! You must know the test in the Lingyan Pavilion, but you may have overlooked some details. In the Hunting Pavilion, you'll be given a quarter of an hour to practice. During this time, there will be a steady stream of geese flying by. You just need to familiarize yourself with the bow and arrow. After a quarter of an hour, it will officially start. At that time, there will be a hundred geese flying by. The more you kill and the shortest time, the higher your chips. "
Fang Yundao asked, "In the High Scholar Lingyan Pavilion, who holds the record for the Hunting Pavilion?"
"Naturally, it's the Flying General Li Guang. However, he only got full chips in the Hunting Pavilion and the Imperial Horse Pavilion. His results in the other pavilions were average. He didn't become one of the 'Ten Students of the High Scholar Lingyan Pavilion'. Among the ten students of the High Scholar Lingyan Pavilion, the only one who got full chips in the Hunting Pavilion was Chen Sheng Qing. The others got eight or nine chips. "
Fang Yundao said, "Half-saint Chen Qing Zhi is proficient in the art of war. How can his archery be so miraculous?"
"It is said that. He claimed that he was well-versed in the art of war and was well-versed in the art of war. He was a genius of his generation and knew everything about the art of war. There was nothing he didn't know. He was also fully prepared for the next Imperial Horse Pavilion. Only in terms of passing time, he is second only to the Flying General Li Guang. This is very rare among scholars. "
"I see."
At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the sky. Fang Yun looked forward and saw countless wild geese flying in from the sky. They covered the sky and covered the earth. There was no end to them.
"Try the bow and arrow, don't delay." Qiao Juze said as he walked to his bow rack and took out a bow. Best for hunting or shooting birds.
Fang Yun's hands skimmed over a variety of bows before he finally chose a longbow. Compared to the bow used for mounted archers or horned archers, the longbow required more strength and took more time to fully draw.
After that, Fang Yun looked at the types of arrows. There were ear piercing arrows that were used to shoot mail, crescent arrows that were used to shoot ropes, and kerosene arrows. In the end, Fang Yun chose four types of arrows.
One was an ordinary cone arrow that was balanced in all aspects. The other was a heavy cone arrow. The arrowhead and the shaft were longer and heavier. The penetrating power was stronger.
The third type was the whistling arrow, which could make an ear-piercing sound when flying. The fourth type was the half-feathered arrow, because part of the feathers were cut off. If used well, the arrow could fly in an arc, which was impossible to guard against.
Fang Yun prepared more than a dozen quivers of arrows and walked forward with the longbow in his hand.
Qiao Juze saw that Fang Yun was using a longbow and wanted to say something. But in the end, he closed his mouth and sighed softly. He continued to shoot with his own bow.
There were thousands of students present, but none of them used a longbow. Most of them used a bow.
When the young duke and Wei Yu saw that Fang Yun was holding a longbow, they looked at each other and smiled. Suddenly, they drew their bows and shot. They didn't shoot at the wild geese in front of them, but at the two wild geese in front of Fang Yun.
The two wild geese cried out sadly. The arrows brought the two wild geese down and landed in front of Fang Yun.
"Brother Fang, how are my and Wei Yu's archery skills? I don't know how long you've practiced archery in Ji County? "The young duke laughed.
Fang Yun didn't seem to see the two provocative arrows and didn't hear the young duke's words. He picked up his bow and practiced silently.
Qiao Juze had been observing Fang Yun. He found that Fang Yun didn't care about the young duke at all and nodded lightly. The worst thing to do when entering the Lingyan Pavilion was to lose control of one's emotions. As long as one wasn't affected by external things, one could achieve better results.
Fang Yun first used a whistling arrow. Once the whistling arrow flew out, it immediately made a piercing sound. The wild geese around them immediately became chaotic. Some of the wild geese retreated, some accelerated, and some moved to the sides.
Other people wouldn't use whistling arrows in the Archery Pavilion because this kind of arrow would scare the wild geese and make it more difficult to hit them.
Many people were baffled and ignored Fang Yun. Some people lowered their heads and pondered.
The young duke and the others were puzzled at first, but when they found that Fang Yun's arrows didn't have any pattern and couldn't even hit the wild geese, they relaxed. It wasn't the time to play. They had to familiarize themselves with the bow and the wild geese. Fang Yun couldn't be so stupid that he didn't know that his archery skills were bad.
Different from other people, Fang Yun thought for a moment before shooting a whistling arrow. After shooting more than twenty arrows, he started to shoot with heavy awl arrows.
Heavy awl arrows were different from ordinary arrows in all aspects. So, whether it was the time to draw the bow, flying speed, flying trajectory, or other aspects, they were different from ordinary arrows. Fang Yun actually missed three arrows in a row.
"You're just so-so! Even the archery of the Gentleman's Six Arts is so inferior, and he dares to boast that he can surpass me. How shameless! "After Wei Yu finished speaking, he looked at Fang Yun with disdain. He ignored Fang Yun and focused on practicing archery.
The young duke silently observed for a while and found that Fang Yun had actually practiced archery before, but he was unfamiliar with using heavy awl arrows. It was obvious that his archery skills weren't good. Then, he ignored Fang Yun and focused on practicing archery.
The Lingyan Pavilion was only held once a month. It had great benefits for future growth, so he couldn't be distracted.
However, Qiao Juze was often distracted. As a Jingguo student, he couldn't let go of Fang Yun.
Fang Yun tried a dozen arrows and finally hit a wild goose, but he hit the wing.
Qiao Juze hurriedly said, "Marquis Wen, don't worry. This is a good sign."
When the junior Duke heard the noise, he turned his head to look at the wild goose that had fallen to the ground. The wild goose was still alive, and was thrashing about on the ground. Although according to the rules, Fang Yun was still considered to have hit the target, but a High Scholar was actually unable to kill a wild goose. It was an insult to scholars.
The young duke smiled gently and didn't even bother to laugh at Fang Yun. He focused on practicing.
Next. Qiao Juze, who supported Fang Yun, was about to collapse because Fang Yun's archery skills were too bad. They either hit the wings or the tail. There was even an arrow that hit the goose's beak, causing the goose to faint from the shock.
When Fang Yun took out the half-feathered arrow, there were twelve wild geese on the ground. However, ten of them were still alive and kicking. Only two of them were killed by the arrow!
Qiao Juze suppressed his disappointment and hoped that Fang Yun's half-feathered arrow could turn something rotten into something magical.
Fang Yun pulled the bowstring to its limit. The half-feathered arrow flew out in an arc and finally hit the eye of a wild goose with incomparable accuracy.
"Good!" Qiao Juze almost burst into tears. If Fang Yun's archery skills were this good, it wouldn't be a problem for him to pass the first pavilion with six arrows.
Who knew that Fang Yun would say, "What's so good about it? I was aiming at the wild goose on the side."
Qiao Juze's smile froze on his face. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Fang Yun, tell me the truth. How good is your archery?" Qiao Juze asked helplessly. He was so desperate that he even called Fang Yun's name.
"It's okay. Shooting a bird shouldn't be a problem. "Fang Yundao said.
"Okay." Qiao Juze was no longer in the mood to hunt.
Fang Yun mastered the half-feathered arrow very quickly. In the end, Qiao Juze discovered that Fang Yun had hit three in a row, so he stopped using the half-feathered arrow. He then muttered softly, "Don't tell me he's only hitting them because he missed?"
Fang Yun then used a normal arrow and shot three arrows in a row. Each arrow hit the chest of a wild goose with exceptional accuracy. However, no one was paying attention to him. Even Qiao Juze didn't see him.
After shooting the three normal arrows, Fang Yun nodded his head in satisfaction.
Fifteen minutes passed by quickly. The wild geese in the sky disappeared, and the bodies of the wild geese on the ground also disappeared. A new black dot flew in from the sky.
Fang Yun looked at the new wild geese and noticed that they were different from the ones he had seen before.
The new wild geese were arranged neatly in a rectangular formation as they flew in. At first glance, it looked like they were adjacent to each other but didn't touch each other. Furthermore, these wild geese were flying at different speeds.
The wild goose in front of Fang Yun was flying at a slower speed. The wild geese flying towards the two Grand Scholars were much faster.
When the Grand Scholars on both sides started to shoot, the wild geese in front of Fang Yun and the other High Scholars had yet to reach them.
The Grand Scholars drew their bows in a frenzy, while Fang Yun, like many other High Scholars, waited silently.
Fang Yun observed the Grand Scholars who were shooting arrows. He noticed that many of the Grand Scholars were able to shoot two arrows at the same time. However, their accuracy was much lower. Most of the time, only one of the two arrows would hit. No one was able to shoot three arrows at the same time. It wasn't that the Grand Scholars couldn't shoot three arrows at the same time. It was just that the structure of the bow and arrow and the human fingers made it very difficult for them to shoot two arrows at the same time. If they were to shoot more arrows at the same time, their accuracy and strength would be affected.
When the Grand Scholars on both sides had killed more than half of the wild geese, the wild geese in front of Fang Yun had just gotten closer. Fang Yun suddenly pulled his bowstring and shot an arrow. He then shot ten arrows at a speed much faster than the other Grand Scholars. In a single breath, he had shot ten arrows. Each arrow hit the wild goose in the stomach.
During this time, even the fastest Jinshi could only shoot eight arrows.
After that, Fang Yun suddenly took out a whistling arrow and an ordinary arrow at the same time. Without any hesitation, he pulled the bowstring and shot. His shooting speed was no different from before.
After shooting the two arrows, Fang Yun quickly glanced at the wild geese in the sky, and then put two more arrows on the bow. One was a heavy awl arrow, and the other was an ordinary awl arrow.
At the same time Fang Yun placed the two arrows on the bow, the piercing sound of an arrow rang out. The people nearby immediately frowned. Those with good willpower didn't even look at it, but those with poor willpower or those who cared about Fang Yun glanced at it.
These people wanted to take a look and continue shooting. However, those who saw this scene could not move their necks.
The two arrows flew at the same time. The ordinary arrow hit one of the wild geese, and the whistling arrow hit the other one at the same time.
Almost at the same time, two more arrows flew out. After the new ordinary arrow hit a wild goose, the heavy awl arrow pierced through a wild goose that was frightened by the whistling arrow and flew slower. It then pierced through the body and accurately pierced the neck of the second wild goose.
"Two birds with one arrow!"
"No, it's three birds with one arrow!"
