After Mentor Hidehiko left, many of the nobles looked at Søren (Lan Ling) in shock.
Søren used to be an ignorant and incompetent prodigal. The political theory class was too boring, so Søren always slept on his stomach. Unexpectedly, today's class became a stage for Søren's performance.
How useless and ignorant was Søren in the past? Why did he suddenly become so smart? Was he pretending before, or did Count Sauron's death bring about such a huge change in him?
At this moment, Yuan Shimin laughed coldly. "Søren, your sister is indeed a famous talented lady. You must have had a hard time memorizing."
As soon as these words were said, some people suddenly understood. It turned out that this was not Søren's point of view, but Tianshui Fairy Suo Ningbing's point of view. She just said it through Søren's mouth.
In this case, everything made sense.
Lan Ling smiled faintly and did not say anything. In his heart, he thought, If all the nobles were as useless as you, Yuan Shimin, I would be relieved.
"Why, did I hit the nail on the head?" Yuan Shimin laughed coldly. Then, he walked over and said in a low voice, "Søren, no one can save your family, not even Duke Linting. Just wait for your family to be destroyed. At least, you won't be able to pass the martial arts stage of the graduation exam. You won't be able to inherit the title. "
The next lesson seemed to verify Yuan Shimin's words. The second lesson was a martial arts class.
…
For the martial arts subject, Søren chose archery. The exam in a hundred days was also archery.
Therefore, if Lan Ling wanted to successfully pass the exam, he had to pass the archery test, or at least pass. So, to pass the exam, what score did he have to achieve?
A 180-kilogram bow, a fixed target, 90 meters, 12 out of 20 arrows had to hit the target. A moving target, 50 meters, five out of ten arrows had to hit the target.
On Earth, be it in ancient times or modern times, this was the standard of an elite archer.
In ancient China, a bow weighing 180 Jin would require a powerful general to use it.
In this world's King's City Academy's graduation exam, it was merely a passing score. Of course, this was very normal. After all, the Royal City Academy had gathered almost all the elites of the kingdom. Moreover, the humans in this world had the bonus of Dragon Power.
But for Lan Ling, it was an impossible task.
First of all, the combined strength of both his hands was only about a hundred pounds. In other words, he could only draw a bow that weighed about fifty pounds at most. He couldn't even draw a bow that weighed a hundred and eighty pounds, let alone shoot an arrow.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, it was impossible for Lan Ling to pass the archery exam this year. The difficulty was even higher than Hell Mode.
Since that's the case, can we change to something else? For example, swordsmanship?
Of course he could, but any other martial arts event was more difficult than archery. This was already the easiest and the least competitive.
That was because those with dragon blood were not willing to be archers. Compared to swordsmen and knights, archers had the least potential.
During the archery lesson, Lan Ling noticed that the number of students had decreased significantly. During the strategy class, there had been more than a hundred people. Now, there were only sixteen people in the archery class, nine of which were women.
Now, Lan Ling was almost sure that Søren had chosen archery to hit on girls.
Soon, the instructor of the archery course appeared. Yes, an instructor, not a teacher.
The instructor was a woman named Li Nianzhen. She wasn't very pretty, but she was very special. She had short hair, which was rare for women. Her body was fit and hot, and she was almost 1.8 meters tall. Dressed in an archer's outfit, she looked very valiant.
The archery class was held on a wide lawn. There were all kinds of bows and targets.
Li Nianzhen was stunned when she saw Søren (Lan Ling). Then, she frowned. She hated Søren very much. He was there to hit on girls. She felt that this prodigal had completely tarnished the archery class.
What was most intolerable was that Søren had tried to hit on Li Nianzhen for novelty. That's right. Not only had he tried to hit on Niya, but he had also tried to hit on girls like Li Nianzhen. He was really addicted to the instructor.
What was most infuriating was that out of the nine noble girls who chose archery, three of them had been hit on by Søren. He seemed to have slept with all of them.
This scoundrel, relying on his good looks, sweet mouth, and thick skin, he messed up her lessons. There was a time when there were girls who fell out of love in her class every day, and the main culprit was the pretty boy, Søren.
What was most intolerable was that she had almost surrendered because of Søren's constant pestering. However, Søren had only been interested in novelty. After his patience ran out, he had ignored her. So, Li Nianzhen really wanted to tear this pretty boy apart.
Now that a few years had passed, the girls in the archery class had completely seen through Søren.
So now, all of them were hiding as far away as they could, as if one look at them would make them pregnant. Three of the girls even regretted that they were blind to be tricked into bed by this bastard.
Li Nianzhen automatically looked away from Søren and said, "There are more than a hundred days until the final exam. Everything that needs to be taught has been taught, and everything that needs to be learned has been learned. From now on, prepare for the final exam. Every class will have actual combat training. Everyone, get your bow and start training. "
All the students went to get their bows one by one.
Lan Ling searched for a long time but couldn't find his bow.
"Søren, you don't need to train anymore. You can't even pull a 25kg bow. You won't pass the exam," Li Nianzhen said.
Hearing this, the other students immediately mocked him.
Lan Ling ignored them. After searching for a while, he finally found the lightest bow, which was labeled as 60kg. There was no bow lighter than this in the Royal City Academy. It was only a third of the strength of the bow used for the exam.
Putting on the finger sheath, Lan Ling tried to pull the bow.
In the end, he found that it was very difficult. Even though he could barely carry a 50kg object with his hands, pulling a bow was a completely different concept.
He couldn't pull it open. When he exerted some force, he immediately felt a sharp pain in his arm. He had strained his muscles.
Even an idiot knew that before pulling the bow, he had to massage the muscles.
Immediately, the 16 students split into groups of two and began massaging each other's muscles and tendons.
Soon, an awkward scene appeared. There were seven male students and nine female students.
Apart from Lan Ling, the other six male students quickly formed into pairs of two, forming three pairs. Out of the nine female students, eight made up four pairs.
Lan Ling was left behind. There was also one girl left behind. She looked like she was avoiding snakes and scorpions. She crossed her arms and looked at Lan Ling as she retreated. It was as if Lan Ling would transform into a perverted demon and pounce on her at any time.
"Teacher …" She looked at Li Nianzhen pitifully.
Thus, Teacher Li Nianzhen personally helped the girl to pull and relax her muscles. Lan Ling was left behind alone. He did the related warm-up exercises alone.
After the warm-up exercises, the dozen or so students all began to practice shooting.
Lan Ling was surprised to find that these people could easily hit a 90-meter fixed target with more than 70-80% accuracy. The only difference was that some could shoot more than ten arrows in one breath, while others could only shoot three to five.
After Lan Ling had done enough exercises, he nocked an arrow and began to pull the 60kg bow again.
He took a deep breath, pulled the bow with force, and began to aim. The fixed target 50 meters away.
The 60kg bow was his limit. It was too difficult to maintain the bow after pulling it. His arm soon reached its limit and began to tremble. He could not support it at all.
At this moment, the Eros in his body released a stream of energy, relieving the pain in Lan Ling's arm.
Lan Ling finished aiming and released the bowstring.
Whoosh … The arrow was released.
Then, everyone burst into laughter. Not only did his arrow miss the target, but it deviated by three meters. Moreover, it barely reached 50 meters away before it began to fall. It was obvious that he did not have enough strength.
It was strange. He had clearly aimed well. How could he miss the target so ridiculously?
Lan Ling did not believe it. He nocked an arrow again, pulled the bow, aimed, and shot!
Whoosh …
The mocking laughter sounded again. This time, Lan Ling improved. He only missed the target by more than one meter.
Next, Lan Ling shot the third arrow, but it missed the target by five meters. It was worse than the first time.
Just when Lan Ling wanted to shoot the fourth arrow, he found that his arm had no strength. He could not even pull the bow.
This was only a bow that weighed 60 Jin! And the bow used for the graduation exam was 180 kg.
To pass the exam, the first thing Lan Ling needed to do was to increase his strength. He needed to be able to pull at least a 180kg bow.
Secondly, he needed to increase his spiritual power so that he could complete the aim. A target over 100 meters could no longer be aimed with his eyes. He had to rely on his spiritual power.
"Alright, Søren, you don't need to practice anymore. Go back and rest," Li Nianzhen said. "You can't pass the graduation exam. Give up."
Lan Ling took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and asked with his consciousness, "Eros, can I increase my arm strength to 100 kg in a hundred days? Can I increase my spiritual power to a target 100 meters away?"
Eros said, "Yes, but it's very urgent. For others, even if they have a high Dragon Bloodline talent, it will take more than two or three years. "
Lan Ling continued to ask, "Can I increase my archery skills to the level of a Level One Samurai Shooter in a hundred days?"
Eros said, "Yes, as long as you hunt enough prey and absorb enough energy. It will take years for others, but a hundred days for you will be enough. "
"I understand," Lan Ling said.
Next, he needed to go to actual combat training as soon as possible to increase his strength and spiritual power.
As for Duke Linting, he had to have some hope, but he could not rely on him as a life-saving straw.
The best way was to pass the graduation exam and inherit the title.
