Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 264 Bow Shooting Competition ([-])

With Liu Yu's participation, the two quickly signed a betting agreement, and then Yan Xing personally arranged for someone to set a target a hundred meters away.

For Yan Xing, the hundred-step piercing through Yang is very easy for Yan Xing, and he can do all kinds of straight arrows and arrows at his fingertips.

In the past two days, he has asked many Xiliang people, but he has never heard of any amazing feats in archery by Ma Chao.

So although Yan Xing wanted to avoid the battle, if he had to compete, he was still very confident that he would win the bow and shoot competition.

"The target has been set up, the rules of the competition, let General Ma come up with the questions!" Yan Xing pretended to be magnanimous and pointed to the target in the distance.

At this time, before Ma Chao could speak, Liu Yu stood up first.

"The target is just a dead object. I believe that both of you will be able to hit every shot with every shot. Compared with shooting the target, I don't know how long it will take to determine the winner. Why don't you... shoot me!"

Liu Yu was shocked when he said that no one would take the initiative to be a target. Although Liu Yu is the most powerful man in the world, his bow and arrow have no eyes, and the distance of twenty steps is too short. It is very possible to hit it. Will be seriously injured and die!
In fact, arrow wounds are not fatal in many cases, but there were no anti-inflammatory drugs in the late Han Dynasty, and aseptic disinfection could not be achieved after being shot by an arrow. Many famous generals in history died of this reason.

"Master...it's not right!" Ma Chao kept shaking his head, he didn't dare to bow his bow to Liu Yu, and he didn't want his master to be a living target.

"It's better to just find a pawn in the army and order him to wear thick armor, and then we will compete with headless arrows."

Yan Xing did not object to Ma Chao's proposal, after all, he was also afraid that he would be punished if he hurt Liu Yu.

But Liu Yu shook his head after listening, "You don't need to worry, just do your best! Besides, I'm not standing still and letting you shoot, I will avoid it!"

Liu Yu smiled, ignored their objections, and started to measure the distance of twenty steps by himself.

"Each of you shoot five arrows, and you can shoot any part of me, including clothes, headgear, and shoes. The one who hits more is the winner! General Yan Xing thinks this rule of mine is fair?"

At a distance of twenty steps, a strong bow can shoot through the human body. Originally, Yan Xing was afraid that Liu Yu would cheat with Ma Chao. Now seeing this distance, he immediately dispelled his previous suspicions.

Because twenty steps is too close, if Liu Yu deliberately releases water, he will definitely be seriously injured!

"Drawing the bow without turning back the arrow, does the King of Zhongshan really want to be a living target?" Yan Xing was absolutely confident that he could hit the target at this distance, but he was still worried that shooting Liu Yu would bring bad luck, so he reminded Liu Yu again. Don't try another method.

"A majestic seven-foot man, how can General Yan behave like a mother-in-law!" Liu Yu sarcastically said, "Someone bring me a certificate of life and death!"

Liu Yu signed the certificate of life and death on the spot, stating that Yan Xing had nothing to do with any accidents during the competition.

"For the sake of fairness, I'll let my apprentice shoot first. General Yan Xing has no objection!" After speaking, Liu Yu returned to the place of twenty paces.

Yan Xing was secretly happy when he heard the words, did Liu Yu lose his mind? Not only did he want to risk himself as a target, but he didn't favor his apprentice at all. It's really... incomprehensible.

"Since it is King Zhongshan's proposal, Yan Xing dare not have doubts!"

Ma Chao shoots first, if he hits by luck, or Liu Yu deliberately releases water to make him shoot, he will be slowed down due to injury, which is definitely a great advantage for Yan Xing, who will play later.

Yan Xing felt that Liu Yu was either overconfident, or he was crazy. In any case, the balance of victory was completely in his favor.

It's a pity that he didn't know that Liu Yu had a system, and the distance of [-] steps happened to be the early warning range of the system's visual function. Within this range, Liu Yu was not afraid of any sneak attack from cold arrows.

After Liu Yu stood up, he ordered Ma Chao to shoot.

"Hey, this time it seems that I can only take advantage of that Yan Xing. Later, I will shoot five arrows indiscriminately, and then admit defeat on the spot. I must not let the master take the risk to hide the arrows shot by Yan Xing, that dog thief!"

Ma Chao felt scruples but didn't dare to disobey his master's order, so he picked up his bow and arrows.

But for the safety of the master, he would rather fail than really aim.

Whizzing……

Two consecutive arrows were shot three meters away from Liu Yu's body.

Liu Yu had already seen that Ma Chao would not really aim, but he could clearly see the trajectory of the two arrows by using the system's visual function.

smack... smack.

With two clear sounds, it turned out that Liu Yu broke the two missed bows and arrows.

"Ah... this is too powerful!" The barracks exclaimed, and everyone was shocked by Liu Yu's miraculous performance.

It is already very difficult to avoid bows and arrows at such a short distance, Liu Yu unexpectedly... can accurately predict the trajectory of bows and arrows, and break them with ease!
This is simply not something that ordinary people can do!
"This... can't be regarded as hitting the target!"

Yan Xing was astonished. The arrow Ma Chao shot just now was not slow. Although he deliberately missed it, Yan Xing was not sure that he would be kicked away one by one like Liu Yu.

However, because Liu Yu took the initiative to kick the arrow away, Yan Xing did not admit that such contact was a hit.

"I took the initiative to kick these two arrows away, so naturally they are not considered effective hits!"

After Liu Yu finished speaking, he hooked his finger at Ma Chao.

"The disciple only has the last three arrows left in his hand, don't disappoint the master!"

Only then did Ma Chao wake up from the shock, and at this moment he understood that even if he aimed and shot just now, the master could easily dodge.

"Master, be careful, this time I will launch with all my strength!"

Ma Chao was aroused by Liu Yu to be competitive, and decided to use all his strength, but he still didn't dare to really aim at the vital point, and just aimed at Liu Yu's fat sleeves and fired three bursts.

Whoosh...

Three arrows were fired, almost in no particular order. This kind of archery is almost unmatched in Xiliang. Some old soldiers in the army cried out when they saw the three arrows.

"The distance of twenty steps is too short, and it is too difficult to dodge three arrows in a row!"

The soldiers all felt that Liu Yu was in danger this time, but after a while, there were two same noises as before.

"Crack...crack."

"Thorn..."

The two noises were the same as before, it was Liu Yu kicking and breaking two arrows again.

But the last sound of the arrow was the sound of Liu Yu's sleeve being pierced by the arrow.

"Wow! It's a triple burst!"

"I didn't expect General Ma Chao to have such superb archery skills at such an age!"

"King Zhongshan is also very powerful! Didn't you see that he broke two sharp arrows in a row? If he had tried his best to avoid it from the beginning, he would definitely not have been hit by the last arrow!"

The soldiers in the barracks were boiling again, some cheered for Ma Chao, and some cheered for Liu Yu!
