Call

"Is it him?"

"...Understood. After all, Su Xue'er is the only direct descendant of the Su Family. She will obtain that secret in the future, so we can't let that kid get close to her anymore."

"What am I planning to do? Find a few brainless family wastrels and make it look like an accidental brawl."

"Yes, when wastrels act impulsively, no one can control them, which makes it easier to get things done."

"The Federation is ultimately controlled by us, the Nine Houses. So what if he's the President's adopted son..."

The call gradually faded away.

Gu Qingshan looked around, surveying the layout of the archery hall.

Twenty archery lanes were lined up, and some people were standing in front of the lanes, practicing aiming and shooting.

Some had coaches standing beside them, correcting their posture and providing guidance.

A staff member noticed his gaze and asked, "Do you need archery tutoring? Our coaches are the most professional."

"Ah, no, thank you."

"Will you be using your own bow, or one of ours?"

"I'll use my own bow."

As Gu Qingshan spoke, he reached into the quiver on his back and took out the Night Rain Bow.

"I'll start practicing now."

"Please, go ahead."

Daring not to use any Spiritual Power, Gu Qingshan casually grabbed an arrow, raised his hand, and shot.

BOOM!

The target fifty meters away exploded into pieces, and even the wall behind the target had a small hole in it.

The entire archery hall fell silent.

"What happened?"

"A bomb?"

"No, it seems like there's something wrong with the target."

The clueless people looked over, whispering to each other.

They were all nobles with status, so even if something unexpected happened, they didn't panic immediately.

The two staff members beside Gu Qingshan were dumbfounded.

"Sorry, I'll use your bow instead," Gu Qingshan quickly said.

This is a distinguished person, it's only natural that he's different from ordinary people. One of the staff members barely managed to convince himself, saying, "Alright, would you like to share a lane with someone else, or apply for a private lane?"

"Private lane," Gu Qingshan thought for a moment and said.

The staff member said, "The first time renting a public bow costs only 800 Credit Points, and a private lane costs 1000 Credit Points per hour."

"...Okay."

Only when the two staff members retreated with strange expressions did Gu Qingshan secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

The Night Rain Bow was too powerful. Once Spiritual Power was activated, it would automatically become invisible, and would also help the user eliminate all traces of aura.

Gu Qingshan had actually considered this point. To avoid attracting attention, he didn't use any Spiritual Power at all, only using thirty percent of his physical strength.

As a result, the highly durable target was directly blown up.

Putting away the Night Rain Bow, Gu Qingshan chose the lane on the far side, waiting for the staff to set things up.

Before long, the staff member returned with three bows.

"Please try them out."

Gu Qingshan held the bow in his hand, weighed it, and chose the heaviest one.

"I'll use this one," he indicated.

"Okay, I hope you have fun," the staff member politely retreated.

Very good, now I can start training.

The only thing to pay attention to is the strength.

Gu Qingshan took out a training arrow, used ten percent of his strength, and gently drew the bow to shoot.

Everything was normal.

Gu Qingshan took another arrow, drew the bow, and released his hand.

The arrow flew out like a stream of light.

Gu Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief and continued to draw his bow and shoot arrows.

In the next half hour, he emptied two quivers.

However, he always felt a little awkward...

Putting down the training bow, Gu Qingshan hesitated slightly, and still took out the Night Rain Bow.

The public training bow was too mediocre, and Gu Qingshan was not very interested in practicing with it.

It would be better to use the Night Rain Bow. In this way, he could not only practice his skills, but also deepen his compatibility with the Night Rain Bow.

The important thing was not to use Spiritual Power, and to control the strength well.

The former would produce anomalies, and the latter would cause the target to be unable to withstand it, both of which would attract unnecessary attention.

Gu Qingshan stood in the middle of the archery lane with the Night Rain Bow, used one percent of his strength, nocked the arrow, and shot.

This practice lasted a full hour.

Gu Qingshan practiced heartily, his whole body was covered in sweat, and he became more familiar with the Night Rain Bow.

Although he didn't use any skills, the accumulated insights in archery were real, and they were confirmed one by one in this special practice.

He practiced in a completely selfless manner, but he didn't know that someone had been staring at him, and then gradually focused his attention on the Night Rain Bow.

"Hello."

A voice came from the side.

Gu Qingshan looked over and saw a young man standing next to the archery lane, carefully looking at him.

"What's the matter?" Gu Qingshan asked, putting down his bow.

"Excuse me, are you selling your bow?"

"Sorry, I'm not selling," Gu Qingshan said.

The man's eyes fell on the Night Rain Bow, and he shouted, "Name your price, our Hui Shao said money is not a problem."

"I'm not planning to sell," Gu Qingshan repeated.

The man shook his head and turned to walk towards another archery lane.

He walked into a group of young people and whispered Gu Qingshan's words to the leader.

The leader listened and said something with a smile.

Soon, the group of people all came to Gu Qingshan's archery lane.

Gu Qingshan seemed unaware, and continued to draw his bow and shoot arrows, one arrow after another.

"Your bow is good."

The leader stared at the Night Rain Bow, and a look of appreciation flashed in his eyes.

"It is good," Gu Qingshan said.

"I want to buy your bow," the man continued.

"Not selling," Gu Qingshan said.

"Don't be like this, sell me the bow, let's be friends."

"Not selling."

That person thought for a moment and said, "How about a gamble? I'll put up 100,000 Credit Points."

Archery as a sport is extremely suitable for gambling and speculation. Not only nobles, but even wealthy commoners like to bet on it for fun.

Gu Qingshan looked around.

Most of the field was surrounded by these people.

It seemed there was no way to resolve this peacefully.

He laughed and said, "Alright, but I have a condition."

"Speak, I'm listening."

Hui Shao twisted his neck.

Whenever the fish was about to take the bait, he would unconsciously twist his neck to conceal his emotional fluctuations.

His brother, who held power in the family, had told him to come and deal with someone, so he had no choice but to come.

He thought it would be a simple provocation, but he made an unexpected discovery.

He had a secret Heaven Chosen Skill that allowed him to see strange phenomena—something no one else knew.

On this bow, he saw a woman in ancient clothing, drawing a bow and shooting an arrow.

That woman was beautiful to the extreme.

The woman seemed to have an inextricable connection with this bow.

This was a bow with quite a history!

Besides, Hui Shao himself was madly in love with bows and arrows, with more than ten years of experience in this field, and could see the power of this bow.

If only he could have this unique and powerful bow.

As long as the other party agreed to gamble, he was confident he could win.

It was just a matter of using some tricks, some were pleasing to the eye, and some were dirty.

This time, he would complete the task and also have a considerable gain, it was indeed a rare and wonderful thing.
