Jiang Fan was unwilling, he left his seat and bowed, "This general is willing!"

Tang Yin nodded in satisfaction, then looked towards Li Dan and asked: "Sir, I wonder if General Lin is also willing to compete?"

The other party had already asked about his head, so Li Dan was no longer able to push it away. He looked at Lin Ning, who was beside him, and the latter nodded slightly, indicating that he should give it a try with Jiang Fan.

After receiving Lin Ning's confirmation, Li Dan calmed his heart, and cupped his hands towards Tang Yin: "It's better to obey than to be respectful, General Lin will be making a fool out of himself in front of all of you!"

Following his words, Lin Ning straightened his body and walked around the table, arriving at the center of the great hall, then stood beside Jiang Fan. Lin Ning and Jiang Fan were around the same age, they looked to be in their thirties, but their temperament was completely different.

Lin Ning was tall and sturdy, with a western face and large ring-shaped eyes, below him was a lion's beak, looking mighty and majestic, giving people a feeling of not getting angry.

Jiang Fan was of medium height, neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, with a face as white as jade, delicate features, he did not seem like a martial general, but more like a scholar.

Right now, they were competing in archery techniques in public. For everyone present, including the kings of the other countries, this was a golden opportunity for them to broaden their horizons.

Everyone put down their wine cups, the smile on their faces slowly disappeared, everyone's expressions became serious, their eyes opened wide, and they stared straight at Jiang Fan and Lin Ning.

Lin Ning cupped his hands towards the dukes and asked, "May I know how Your Highness wishes for General Jiang to compete with this lowly general?"

Yue Ze, Li Xin, and the others all looked at Tang Yin. The latter smiled, picked up an empty plate from the table, threw it in the air, and felt that it was alright. Then, he said, "The two of you stand in the hall and shoot your arrows.

How hard is that? Lin Ning and Jiang Fan replied to him in unison, "This general obeys!"

Tang Yin called for a guard and whispered a few words to him. The guard picked up a few empty plates and quickly ran out.

When he reached the entrance of the great hall, he turned around and looked at Tang Yin, asking him if he could stay here. Tang Yin shook his head and waved to the guard.

The guard retreated all the way to the foot of the stairs. He did not hear the King's call to stop him as he was startled. He looked behind him and saw that she was already at the foot of the stairs.

Seeing the guard standing there motionlessly, Tang Yin asked in dissatisfaction: "Why are you not moving anymore?"

Although his voice was not very loud, the hall was still silent. His voice could still be heard from outside the hall. Report... Reporting to the King, this little one's position is already at its limit. If I continue to retreat, I can ? It's time to go back down the stairs. "

Tang Yin smiled leisurely and said: "Since this king wants you to retreat, you should retreat.

The guard had no choice but to follow the steps all the way to the square outside the main hall. The distance from here to the main hall was at least one hundred and fifty steps. Especially since it was now night, and he had to shoot arrows in the main hall, hitting a small plate that was thrown up from the square. The difficulty was so great that everyone present was speechless.

If Tang Yin did it intentionally, it did not make sense, since there was still General of Feng Country participating in the competition. But if Tang Yin truly wanted to use this as a test for their archery, wasn't it too overbearing?

Lin Ning had never fought in such a novel competition before. He glanced at Jiang Fan beside him, but he was calm, his eyes were downcast, and he was unmoving like a mountain, as if the things surrounding him had nothing to do with him. He smiled faintly and asked, "General Jiang, please first!"

After Jiang Fan heard this, he finally raised his gaze and said indifferently: "General Lin is the master and this one is the guest, how can there be a reason for guests to snatch the master away?"

Hearing Jiang Fan's humble words, Lin Ning did not remain polite any longer. He waved towards his follower: "Bring the bow over!"

Following his words, a Zhen Country guard brought out a bow and arrow in front of Lin Ning. Lin Ning's arrows were all made of steel, especially the bow. It was said that it was a treasure that had gone through eighty times of refinement, the Blood Bow:

(Iron is hard, but there are too many impurities in it, so it breaks easily.) After the red-hot iron was hammered, the impurities would be removed and then cooled down. This was what was meant by refining metal into steel. However, a hundred refinements were too difficult to complete. In ancient times, even fifty refinements would require more than ten years. Ten refinements and above could be called fine steel.

As for Lin Ning, he held the bow in his hand, and as the spirit mist and blood continuously fused together, the shape of the steel bow also changed. In a blink of an eye, it had turned into a pure white spirit bow.

He took out a steel arrow and transformed it into a spirit arrow, then twirled the arrow on his bow. Taking a deep breath, he said seriously: "Feng King, I have prepared everything!"

Tang Yin smiled and nodded to Ah San who was behind him. Ah San stood up, and shouted loudly towards the outside of the hall: "Throw ? ?"

The guard standing on the square used all his strength to throw the bronze plate in the air.

With such a long distance and the sky so dark, for most people in the hall, not to mention shooting arrows at their plates, they couldn't even see clearly.

Just when everyone was craning their necks to look outside, not knowing whether the guards had thrown out the plates or not, Lin Ning's eyes suddenly squinted, with force in his arms, the fingers which were tightly holding onto the arrow instantly relaxed. From the earrings, a whizzing sound could be heard as the Spirit Arrow left its bowstring and, like a bolt of lightning, flew towards the outside the hall.2

The speed of the arrow was too fast. It was so fast that it exceeded the limit of what the naked eye could reach. At some point in time, Jiang Fan had already grasped the Purplish Gold Bow in his hand. The moment Lin Ning shot out the Spirit Arrow, he also nocked his bow and nocked an arrow, following closely behind Lin Ning, and shot the Purple Gold Arrow out.

The Spirit Arrow that Lin Ning shot out looked as if it had grown eyes, and in the darkness of the night, it actually nailed the small copper plate in front of it. Following a crisp clank, the Spirit Arrow penetrated through the copper plate and hung the plate on the arrow, and then, without slowing down in the slightest, it nailed itself onto the stone pillar in the plaza.

This was not the most surprising thing. Just as Lin Ning's Spirit Arrow hung the copper plate on the pillar, Jiang Fan's Purple Gold Arrow fell. This arrow had actually struck right at the tail of Lin Ning's Spirit Arrow, and the strength of the arrow was so strong that it pushed the Spirit Arrow through the pillar. With a clang, it fell onto the ground from the other side of the pillar, and Jiang Fan's Purple Gold Arrow took its place.

When the servants ran back to the main hall and reported the situation to the crowd, all of the princes, generals, and ministers present were greatly shocked.

It was not easy for Lin Ning to hit the plate, but for Jiang Fan's arrows to hit the tiny dot at the end of the arrow, his archery skills had undoubtedly reached a superb level.

The crowd in the great hall was stunned for a while before recovering. Following that, they broke out into thunderous applause. Even Li Dan could not help but stand up and sincerely sigh: "General Jiang really has a good archery skill!"

The expression on Jiang Fan's face did not change at all, he was still neither angry nor happy, nor hot. He bowed slightly and said, "Master, you flatter me."

At this moment, Lin Ning's expression was already a little unnatural. Jiang Fan didn't wait for the second plate, and was just about to shoot himself, and not only did he not shoot first, he even shot his arrows. How is he here to compete with me in archery, he's simply here to fight me! The arrogant Lin Ning had already become angry because of Jiang Fan, and his energy to refuse to admit defeat had risen as well. He secretly clenched his teeth, turned around and sternly said to Tang Yin: "Feng King, I want to compete with General Jiang one more time! But, how about throwing three plates this time? "

Tang Yin laughed, and said: "Since General Lin requests it like that, then let's compete once more!"

After hearing that, everyone present perked up. Just shooting a single plate a moment ago was already so exciting, and now they were shooting three arrows at the same time? They still didn't know what kind of unimaginable archery skills Jiang Fan and Jiang Fan were about to use!

Lin Ning took out three steel arrows from the quiver and placed it between his fingers. He then turned to look at Jiang Fan, and saw that the latter's Purplish Gold Bow had only taken one arrow, and he could not help but ask: "What's the matter? Does General Jiang want to use an arrow to shoot through three plates? "

Jiang Fan just looked at him indifferently, not replying at all. He was silent. Jiang Fan remained silent. Lin Ning did not have any confidence anymore, could it be that Jiang Fan really planned to shoot through three plates in one shot? To be honest, if that was the case, he had never experienced such a profound archery skill.

Just as Lin Ning's heart was in turmoil, Tang Yin asked with a smile: "General Lin, are you ready?"

"Your Highness, this general has already prepared everything!"

Tang Yin looked at Ah San. The latter quickly ran to the entrance of the hall and shouted, "Three plates, throw them at the same time!"

Following Ah San's loud shout, the guards on the plaza immediately picked up three copper plates and threw them into the air.

When the plate flew up to a height equal to that of the great hall, Lin Ning clearly felt Jiang Fan, who was beside him, emit a wave of oppressive Spirit Pressure. Afraid that Jiang Fan would take the initiative, Lin Ning took the initiative to shoot first. Pa!

But at the same time, Jiang Fan shot his arrow as well. His target was not the three plates that were thrown out of the hall, but Li Dan who was sitting by the side and watching intently.

None of the ministers and Generals present would have dreamed that Jiang Fan would suddenly kill Crown Prince Li Dan in a match of archery skills.

The distance between the two was too close, and Jiang Fan's arrow was too fast. With the sound of the bow, the Purple Gold Arrow had nailed itself onto Li Dan's chest.

"Pu!" The Purple Gold Arrow directly pierced through Li Dan's body. His face was still in a daze, but his body was struck by the arrow and flipped upside down.

Ah!" "Young master ? ?" Li Dan's hanger-ons were the first to react as they swarmed forward, surrounding Li Dan, who had been shot in the chest.
