The eyes of the people on both sides were focused on Chong Lin and Sun Dong. The Horse Gang's faces were full of disbelief. Sun Dong was the Second Leader of Mount Yunwu. He could become the Second Leader largely because of his good Kung Fu, especially his staff technique, which was unrivaled among the Horse Gang. However, he was defeated by Chong Lin today. This was something that the Horse Gang had never expected.
Liu Rui wasn't surprised by this result. No one doubted Chong Lin's strength. Although Chong Lin usually used his 18-foot-long Snake Spear, the difference between a spear and a rod wasn't too big when he was outmatched by others.
"We lost this round. I'm convinced!"
Sun Dong was also a man of his word. If he couldn't win, he couldn't win. He didn't find any excuses. Liu Rui admired his temper. Only such a person could become an excellent general. He didn't find excuses for his failure. This was also very consistent with the famous West Point Military Academy's motto: There was no reason.
"In the third round, let's compete in archery!”Wang Dang couldn't sit still anymore. They had already lost two rounds. If they lost this round, it would be meaningless even if they won the next two rounds.
Therefore, he chose archery, which he was best at. He was famous for being good at archery in the Yellow Turban army. In his opinion, it was difficult for anyone who was not in the army to be good at archery. This was also the source of his confidence.
Liu Rui looked at them sympathetically. There was only one thing he wanted to say in his heart: If you don't do it, you won't die. Hua Rong was ranked ninth in the Water Margins, and he relied on his skill of piercing through a poplar with a hundred steps. To actually compete with him in archery, these mounted gangsters were really courting death!
"Lord, Hua Rong requests to fight!"
Little Li Guang and Hua Rong hung the steel spear in their hands on the horse. They held a Baodiao Bow and lightly walked out of the formation. If it was a competition, Hua Rong would definitely not steal the limelight with others. However, in a competition of bows and arrows, no one dared to claim to be the first if Hua Rong claimed to be second.
Everyone also knew Hua Rong's archery skills, so no one went to compete with him.
"Chief Wang, what do you think?”
Wang Dang pondered for a moment and said,"Fifty steps away, place an item. Whoever hits it wins!"”
A strange smile appeared on the faces of the people beside Liu Rui, making Wang Dang feel uneasy. However, he had no other choice. Being able to hit the target at fifty steps was his limit. If it was any further, he was not confident. Unfortunately, he did not know that Hua Rong's daily archery practice in the village was not less than a hundred steps.
Liu Rui waved his hand, and a soldier quickly ran fifty steps away and placed a spear there.
"Whoever hits the spear will be the winner!" Liu Rui said lightly.
Wang Dang grabbed the bow and arrow on his horse, pulled the bow and aimed at the spear. He shot it steadily. With a swoosh, the long arrow shot past the spear and hit its target. The spear slowly fell from the spear.
"We won…we won!"
The mounted gangsters looked at their chief with excitement. Wang Dang was also excited.
"Who said you won? I haven't shot yet.”Hua Rong also rudely interrupted their excitement. Only then did the mounted gangsters remember that the other party had not shot an arrow yet. However, in their opinion, it was already very impressive for their Chief to hit the target within fifty steps. It was impossible for the other party to win.
"If I can hit him at fifty steps, how can I appear to be stronger than him? Put your gun at one hundred and twenty steps!”
Hua Rong directly shattered the bandits 'fantasies. All the bandits looked at Hua Rong with a dumbfounded expression. Wang Dang even looked at him without blinking. One hundred and twenty steps!
Even Wang Dang doubted if he could shoot so far, but Hua Rong said he had to hit the target within 120 steps.
Under Liu Rui's signal, the soldier raised his spear 120 steps away.
Hua Rong lightly pulled the reins, and his horse began to run around the valley. Hua Rong gently pulled out two arrows from his quiver, bit one arrow in his mouth, and nocked the other arrow on the string. As the horse ran, he bent his bow and nocked the arrow. After shooting the first arrow, he immediately took the second arrow from his mouth and nocked the arrow again.
Two arrows were shot out one after the other. The first arrow hit the joint between the tassel and the spear, and the spear fell from the spear.
"Wow!"
The moment the spear landed, the second arrow had already shot through the spear. This scene made both sides gasp in surprise.
"Good archery!" Qiao Feng, Lin Chong, and the others could not help but blurt out.
Wang Dang was already dumbfounded. He had learned archery himself, and the strength displayed by Hua Rong's two arrows was completely different from his own.
"We lost the third round!" The first to react was Sun Dong. Although they knew that they would lose this round, he didn't go back on his word.
" The fourth round, let's compete in saber techniques!" Wang Dang said after discussing with Sun Dong.
"Haha, it's finally my turn to fight. Who wants to fight?”As soon as Sun Dong finished speaking, Tian Boguang jumped out with a single blade in his hand.
A bearded man came out from the Horse Gang and looked at Tian Boguang fiercely,""I'll do it!"
Seeing the two of them fight, the bandits cheered for the bearded man, but their shouts were stuck in their throats because the short saber in Tian Boguang's hand was already placed on the bandit's neck.
One had to know that Tian Boguang's Gale Blade Technique's greatest feature was its speed. A mounted bandit, especially his opponent, was almost instantly killed.
……
"In the fifth round, we will compete in martial arts, not weapons!”After discussing with Sun Dong for a long time, Wang Dang realized that Liu Rui's men were too good at kung fu. In the end, they could only choose to compete with their fists and feet.
After hearing their choice, Liu Rui's group couldn't help but laugh. If competing with Hua Rong in archery was courting death, then competing with Qiao Feng in martial arts was no different from suicide!
