My Beloved Has Risen from Death's Embrace novel Chapter 261

"Thirsty? I see you still have the energy to flirt with a female celebrity?"

That was a taunt. Orion wasn't interested in him, but he was into Xanthea.

His water was gone, and the spark of romance that had barely started with Xanthea was snuffed out. Oh, the tragedy!

Xanthea: "… Really?"

Nelson, against his better judgment, nodded.

A loud buzzer sounded.

"Time's up, folks! Everyone, gather up and jog to the west side of the field for the second round of assessments!"

"As you can see, we're at the outdoor shooting range. Our next assessment? Shooting!"

"Here are the rules: each trainee gets three shots. We'll add up the scores from each round, and the person with the highest total gets two points, the lowest gets none, and everyone else gets one point."

As soon as the rules were announced, Martin couldn't contain his excitement. "Shooting's my thing! When I'm not swimming, I'm probably at the shooting range."

"Shooting?" Rachel frowned, "I've never even held a gun. What if I miss completely?"

Martin smirked, "It's rare for girls to be into shooting, but don't worry, there's not much competition."

Olivia tilted her chin up slightly, "I might have you beat. I starred in a shooting-themed TV show and got trained by a pro."

Isabella wanted to compete but was hardly familiar with guns, having only shot a few times at corporate team-building events.

"If you're not sure about shooting, ask one of the instructors. We can show you how," William suggested.

"Really?"

Soon, Isabella, Rachel, and even the previously boastful Olivia crowded around Mr. Lockwood, eager for help.

"Mr. Lockwood, could you give us a demo?"

"Mr. Lockwood, it's been a while, I don't quite remember how to aim. Could you demonstrate first?"
