Chapter 214 - You Want a Fight? I’ll Give You One (3)
She used mental energy to lock onto a target, and then she infused magic into the second arrow. Coupled with the rapid hand movements that she trained from her practice in curses, other than Shen Yanxiao, who cultivated in two paths, perhaps only an Arch Archer could have achieved such a feat.
However, Great Archers were already as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns in the Brilliance Continent, let alone Arch Archers who were on the same level as the Archmagus!
“What do you think?” Shen Yanxiao looked at her own success with satisfaction. That was her first attempt in combining magic and battle aura, and the results were great.
“Not bad.” Xiu seldom complimented her.
Shen Yanxiao had only just walked onto the path of an archer, and yet she could already utilize a warlock’s special skill on the arrows. Furthermore, he did not guide her in that attempt; it was all her doing.
That little girl had a quick mind, indeed.
“Hmph! I will show that bastard, Wan Li, the meaning embarrassment this weekend!” Did he want her to embarrass herself in public? She would let him know who was the unlucky one.
It was only about two to three days before the date of the challenge, and Shen Yanxiao continued to change between her two identities to shuttle back and forth between two divisions. Tang Nazhi had not managed to capture her each time.
That evening, Tang Nazhi was lying in bed when Shen Yanxiao finally returned to the dormitory. He stared at her and grunted.
“Say, what exactly are you busy with these few days? Where do you disappear to each afternoon?” He had searched almost the entire Herbalist Division, and yet there were no traces of Shen Yanxiao. He was curious about her hiding place.
She hid in the Archer Division! However, Shen Yanxiao could not have possibly told him that, right?
“Nowhere. I merely wandered around the Black City to see if there are any suitable ingredients.”
“Black City?” Tang Nazhi recalled when Shen Yanxiao asked him about the Black City a few days ago, but he did not think too much about that. However, he thought of an exciting matter when she mentioned Black City.
“I couldn’t find you these past few days, but I did hear about an interesting incident.”
“What is it?” Shen Yanxiao casually asked.
Tang Nazhi crossed his legs and said, “It has something to do with the Archer Division. The first-year students there are quite naughty, and there had already been a few challenges. There was a rumor about a first-year student from the Archer Division who went to the Lianjin Weapon Shop in the Black City and lavishly spent three million gold coins to purchase a half-completed bow.”
Shen Yanxiao wanted to pour herself a cup of water, but she had to pause when she heard what Tang Nazhi had to say.
‘Oh, I’m sorry. That extravagant first-year student was me!”
“Apparently, he is a student from the red class, and he will be challenging a student from the violet class this weekend.” Challenges happened quite often in all the divisions, but it was rare for a student from the bottom-ranked class to challenged someone from the top-ranked class. Other than Cao Xu and his unlucky teammates, no one would even dare to imagine that scenario.
“And?” Shen Yanxiao calmly waited for Tang Nazhi to get to the main point of his story.
“Do you want to watch the match? I want to see what a three-million-gold-coin bow looks like.” Tang Nazhi stroked his jaw. The three-million-gold-coin bow did seem extravagant!
Shen Yanxiao’s lips twitched. Why would she need to watch that? She was the lead character in that story anyway!
No matter how hard Tang Nazhi tried to persuade her, Shen Yanxiao maintained an ‘I’m not interested, please help yourself’ expression.
