Electromagnetic Tyrant

Chapter 12 Shooting Leaf Cup

Three days later.

Ji Xinghuo wore the power shoes Zhong Ming gave him and slid quickly on the park trail.

The pulleys installed on the soles are driven by micro motors and can reach a maximum speed of 50 kilometers per hour. There is an intelligent control system inside the soles, which not only maintains body balance at all times, but also can keenly sense the wearer's force and assist in controlling speed and direction.

You can go when you want and stop when you want; the operation is simple and the movements are silky smooth.

Power shoes are the best choice for short distance travel!

In less than three minutes, Ji Xinghuo arrived at the Qishan Wutong Archery Hall.

The archery hall is particularly lively today, not only because it is the weekend, but also because of the "Leaf Shooting Cup" competition that will be held today.

Most of the people walking around were carrying bow bags and gathered together in twos and threes to chat.

Like Ji Xinghuo, they are all contestants.

"Sea of ​​clouds."

Ji Xinghuo paused, and the pulleys retracted into the soles, turning into a pair of normal sneakers.

He walked into the archery hall and saw Lu Yunhai in the crowd. He was wearing clothes with the referee's logo today, which was very eye-catching.

Many students gathered around Lu Yunhai and asked him about the competition.

Lu Yunhai heard someone calling him, turned around and saw Ji Xinghuo, walked over and asked, "How are you preparing?"

Ji Xinghuo nodded and gave him a confident smile.

In the past few days, he has deliberately increased his archery practice, especially for moving targets and random targets above fifty meters, so that he can be more confident.

"Do you understand the schedule?" Lu Yunhai confirmed.

"certainly."

Ji Xinghuo received the "She Ye Cup" competition procedures on the day of registration, and read it carefully twice when he went home.

The game is divided into ten rounds in total, and the difficulty increases with each round.

The first three rounds are group matches, which are held at seven archery halls that jointly organize this competition. They are divided into groups. It takes one morning to determine the top 300 with the best results from nearly 3,000 contestants and advance to the fourth place. It’s the knockout round of the sixth round.

In the knockout round in the afternoon, the players will gather at an archery venue on the outskirts of Chang'an to determine the top 32 in three rounds.

From the seventh round to the ninth round, half of the people will be eliminated in each round.

The last four remaining contestants enter the tenth round to compete for the final championship!

The whole schedule is only one day, very compact.

Lu Yunhai said a few words and walked away. As one of the referees, he had a heavy task today.

Ji Xinghuo found a corner in the archery hall and sat down, took out the compound bow and calibrated it again. The purpose of the Leaf Shooting Cup competition is towards actual combat. Sights can be used, but balance bars cannot be installed. Each shot must be completed within a limited time. Overtime results will be invalid.

He observed the other players around him and found that more than 80% of them used compound bows like himself, but most of them were target bows in compound bows, not hunting bows.

After all, it is a competition, and there is no requirement for lethality. It is more advantageous to shoot an accurate bow.

The remaining 20% ​​of players have both traditional bows and barebows. There are dozens of bows of various models and shapes, and there are also many exotic bow types that are difficult to identify.

Traditional bows and barebows will test your archery skills more. Those who dare to use these two bows to compete will not be inferior in strength.

Several popular contestants use traditional bows.

They were surrounded by fans signing autographs.

However, Ji Xinghuo had just learned archery for two or three weeks. Except for Lu Yunhai, he didn't know anyone in this circle, and others didn't know him either.

"The game is ready to begin."

The announcement from the archery hall sounded, and a female voice said: "Athletes, please go to the corresponding venues according to your own groups."

There are more than 400 contestants at Qishan Wutong Archery Hall, divided into five groups, and each group is assigned an archery range.

Ji Xinghuo arrived on the fifth floor, and seventy or eighty players in the same group arrived one after another.

Several referees were maintaining order.

"The first round of shooting begins now." A referee shouted loudly: "Please call the players whose names and numbers are called to come forward, four at a time, and stand in the designated shooting area. Please do not make any noise to avoid affecting the field. players."

The place quickly became quiet.

The referee called out the names of the four players. They stood in a row, fifty meters in front of them was the target to be shot in the first round, and there was a timer beside each person.

"One minute to prepare."

Players must be ready to shoot within one minute. Once the time is up, they must shoot the first arrow within three seconds; then prepare for ten seconds and shoot the second arrow; each interval is ten seconds, and then You have to shoot within three seconds until you have shot ten arrows.

One minute soon came, and as the buzzer sounded, a three-second countdown began.

Bang bang bang...

The bowstrings vibrated in unison, and the four contestants shot the first arrow almost simultaneously.

Three minutes later, the group completed ten arrow shots.

Ji Xinghuo looked at the target opposite. The first round was the lowest difficulty, but maybe he was too nervous to play first. Only one of the four contestants achieved a perfect score of ten rings, and the other three all scored between 90 rings and 10 rings. Between 97 rings.

Judging from their annoyed expressions, it was obvious that they were not performing properly.

The referee counts the number of rounds and records the results.

"The second group of players comes on."

Group after group of players completed the ten-arrow shooting. Ji Xinghuo found that most players scored around 95 rings, and very few players could shoot 100 rings.

Almost all of these outstanding players are aliens, either rangers or stalkers like themselves.

Half an hour later.

Ji Xinghuo heard his name and went on the stage with three other players.

All the contestants present focused their attention, but what they were watching was the female contestant next to Ji Xinghuo, who seemed to be quite famous and known to many people.

"One minute to prepare."

With a calm mind, Ji Xinghuo drew out his arrow and placed it on the "Yifeng", waiting for the preparation time to end.

Beep!

As soon as the buzzer sounded, he quickly shot the first arrow, bang!

Ten rings.

From the corner of his vision, he saw the target next to him, which was also a ten-ring target, and he almost completed shooting at the same time as himself.

Only then did Ji Xinghuo notice the person next to him, but he was not distracted by this and waited for ten seconds to pass before shooting the second arrow.

Ten rings.

Ten rings.

Ten rings...

Ji Xinghuo's hands were fast and steady, like preset mechanical hands. Every time he shot the arrow, his movements were exactly the same without any deviation.

After ten arrows, he got 100 rings.

When the referee confirmed the number of rings, there was a burst of admiration from the sidelines. Three of the four players in this group actually scored full rings, and the remaining one was not bad either, with a score of 99 rings.

Ji Xinghuo and the other two full-circle players looked at each other, nodded and left.

It took an hour for all players to complete the first round of shooting.

Then came the second round.

This round of shooting is a 70-meter fixed target, and the difficulty has increased a lot. Compared with the previous round, the players' scores have declined to varying degrees, with an average of around 80 rings.

Of course, the aliens with superior archery skills still maintain a high level.

Ji Xinghuo's score in the second round was still 100 rings.

In the third round, the distance of the target was extended to 100 meters, and the difficulty increased greatly. Many contestants missed the target, and most of them only got results below 50 rings.

Ji Xinghuo still played full circle!

After three rounds of shooting, there are only a handful of players who can still get 100 rings, and they are basically all strangers. Ji Xinghuo also got some attention because of this.

"Getting acquainted."

The female player in the same group came over and took the initiative to introduce herself: "My name is Fang Yinping, from Chang'an, intermediate ranger."

She is about thirty years old, has a heroic face, is about 1.65 meters tall, has a well-proportioned figure, wears a white archer uniform, and carries a bare bow behind her back, highlighting her capable temperament, and her whole body is full of a sense of vigor and flexibility. .

Ji Xinghuo shook hands with her, then let go, nodded and said, "Ji Xinghuo, junior ranger."

"Mr. Ji is very young!"

Fang Yinping had already looked at him several times, laughed, and asked: "How come you haven't heard of such a high level of archery before?"

She already considered Ji Xinghuo as a strong opponent in this competition.

Ji Xinghuo answered truthfully: "I just learned archery not long ago and it's my first time to participate in the competition."

Fang Yinping was stunned for a moment, a look of displeasure flashed on his face, and he obviously didn't believe it, thinking that Ji Xinghuo was lying to him.

"Then I wish Mr. Ji a good ranking." After saying this, Fang Yinping turned around and left.

Ji Xinghuo looked at her back and shook his head helplessly.

I'm telling the truth...

After the first three rounds, the players have a good idea of ​​whether they can advance.

Most of them came to join in the fun and see high-level archers. They didn't want to advance to the knockout round, so they left the archery hall after three rounds.

Ji Xinghuo waited at the door for half an hour. Lu Yunhai finally finished his work and came out, and the two of them went to have lunch together.

Lu Yunhai asked: "How are the results?"

Ji Xinghuo picked up a new mobile phone that he had just used for a few days. The screen lit up at him, showing the results of the competition and the notification of advancing to the knockout round.

"I knew you were okay!"

afternoon.

After Ji Xinghuo went home and rested for an hour, he set out for Zhongnan Mountain in the southern suburbs of Chang'an and arrived at an outdoor archery range built in a valley.

The venue was very large, and a tall screen was erected on one side of the entrance to the meeting point, playing a promotional video for the "She Ye Cup". A rostrum is set up under the screen, and every shooting position in the venue is equipped with a floating camera to broadcast live in real time, making it look very formal.

Three hundred contestants who advanced to the knockout rounds arrived one after another.

2 p.m.

Seven directors of the archery hall stepped onto the rostrum, five of whom were strangers.

Ji Xinghuo noticed Yang Tianqing, the director of Qishan Wutong Archery Hall, at a glance. Lu Yunhai often mentioned him to him. Yang Tianqing is a super alien, his professional template is also a ranger, his archery skills are extremely good, and he is powerful. You can only see him if you sign up for his course.

Yang Tianqing is of medium height, neither tall nor short, and has both hands free, but anyone can tell that he is not an ordinary middle-aged man.

His gaze was extremely sharp, like a blade.

Many players in the audience knew Yang Tianqing and looked at him curiously, but did not dare to look at him.

Ji Xinghuo looked at it twice and then turned his head.

"Good afternoon, fellow archers!" Yang Tianqing stood on the stage and said a few words on behalf of the seven archery halls, encouraging the contestants to show their strength and strive for ranking. The rewards of this competition are very generous. The top eight will receive bonuses, and the champion can get 200,000!

This is a bit more than the previous years, and the players are not surprised. Many people come here just for the prize money.

"let's start."

Without further ado, Yang Tianqing immediately announced the fourth round of shooting, and the contestants entered the venue according to the new draw group.
