Chapter 154: To Abstain? 

Chapter 154: To Abstain? 

Gilbert also understood; this child had figured it out. 

The handsome man tugged at the corner of his mouth and suddenly lifted his thin lips, addressing everyone, “If it were just simple archery, it wouldn’t showcase your levels. So, I’ve added a little obstacle… If you can withstand the strong wind, control your arrows, and hit the bullseye, only then will you have truly passed my assessment.” 

Upon hearing this, everyone was exceptionally astonished. 

This is simply too outrageous! 

bery is already difficult, and now they have to shoot arrows against a strong wind. It’s a level of difficulty akin to hell! 

Even talents like Exen struggled due to the wind; they stood even less of a chance… Teacher Gilbert is being too strict. 

Complaints filled the air instantly. Teacher James smiled and tried to soothe everyone, “Don’t be disheartened, you can give it a try. What if you succeed?” 

“How could we possibly succeed?” Some students had already begun to give up on themselves. “The wind will surely deflect the arrows; how can we shoot like this? Not missing the target would be a stroke of luck!” 

“Never expected a show of strength in the first test; truly worthy of Starry Sky training…” 

Just as everyone was complaining, Exen drew his bow again, his expression serious. His demeanor involuntarily tensed. He placed the fletched arrow on the bowstring and aimed at the bullseye. 

Everything was poised. 

The handsome youth, with a calm profile, had cold brows and eyes, his gaze fixed straight ahead. Not far away, Victoria watched Exen’s appearance, understanding in her heart- 

Exen was starting to take this seriously. 

Once he was serious, this was the expression he wore. 

Seeing this, everyone subconsciously held their breath. All eyes were on Exen, waiting for the moment the arrow would be released. 

Suddenly, a muffled sound. 

The fletched arrow flew out. 

Would this arrow hit the target? 

That was everyone’s question. 

One second later- 

This sharp fletched arrow firmly 

erced close to the bullseye! 

It was a hair away from hitting the bullseye! 

Exen’s second arrow landed 

ત 

9–point hit. 

Although it was a pity it didn’t hit the perfect 10, to hit a 9 in this strong wind was already very impressive. 

For a moment, the crowd was stunned, then erupted into enthusiastic applause and cheers. 

“No wonder he’s an S–rank genius, Exen is amazing! To hit a 9 in this situation!” 

“Just a tiny bit more, and it would have been a bullseye 10, but this is already excellent.”

Txen is July an all around expert, there’s nothing he can’t do 

On the other side, Gilbert also saw Exen hit a 9 and couldn’t help but nod. A faint sense of appreciation flashed in his profound and serene eyes. To hit a 9 in such harsh conditions was truly remarkable. Exen had undoubtedly earned Gilbert’s approval. 

Soon, Exen drew his bow again and began shooting his third arrow. Each person had three opportunities to shoot arrows. The final test score would be the sum of the points from each shot. 

Exen, still calm and indifferent, released his arrow once more 

This time, it was a perfect 10 points! 

kit the bullseye directly. 

The excitement among the crowd was palpable. 

“A bullseye, a perfect 10! Am I seeing this right?” 

“Exen, is he even human?” 

I think Exen has already reserved a single room…” 

After three arrows, Exen’s final score was 19 points. 

The youth put down his bow and arrow, silently stepping aside. 

Next, it was someone else’s turn. 

At this moment, Victoria stepped forward, silently picking up the bow and arrow. 

Exen had set a high standard, and she naturally wasn’t willing to fall behind. 

She had always been chasing after Exen. 

Struggling a bit, Victoria drew the crossbow. She couldn’t help but furrow her brow; it felt somewhat strenuous. 

She considered herself reasonably strong, but fully drawing this crossbow was more difficult than she had imagined. 

With great effort, Victoria released the arrow. 

The arrow, already not very accurate, was thrown off course even more by the strong wind. 

Although she didn’t miss the target, Victoria’s three arrows- 

Only hit the 2–point circle each time, totaling 6 points! 

This score could be considered humiliating! 

In comparison, everyone increasingly realized how impressive Exen truly was. 

To shoot a bullseye in such conditions! 

Next up was Sherry. 

She looked serious, as if gearing up for a big effort, but in the end, just like Victoria, each of her arrows hit the 2–point circle. Her final score was 6 points! 

It’s really challenging! 

Apart from monsters like Exen, the next participants either kept missing the target or achieved a score of 2 points per arrow, like Victoria and Sherry. 

There were even those who couldn’t even draw the crossbow and had to forfeit.

Even another S–rank genius, Catherine, only managed a score of 9 points in the end. 

Exen held the top spot with 19 points. 

No one could surpass him. 

One by one, the students completed the test, and in the end, only three C–rank students remained. 

Karl shook his head, and with a dispassionate and stubborn tone, he said to Teacher James, “I forfeit.”
