Chapter 291 (1/2)
No one knew because no one had seen it before.
However, they were all extremely anxious as they saw the jade green glow become brighter and brighter.
”Ah! Don't shoot me!”
”I am just here to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion!”
”Please stop! We have no feud, don't act rashly!”
No one else had Xiang Tianying and Tang Zhongming's ability. As such, when they saw the arrow on Fang Zhengzhi's bow, they panicked.
”Zoom!” A piercing sound rang out throughout the air.
The arrow tore through the air, cutting a slim green crack as it flew towards the crowd.
Clearly, the pleas had not worked.
”Run!” All of them ran without hesitation. They could feel how terrifyingly powerful the green arrow was.
If they were hit by it, many of them would die or suffer severe injuries.
Amongst the ten greatest treasures of the Great Xia Dynasty, the Blazing Qilin Spear was the best offensive weapon. The Sun Shooting Bow was the one with the highest lethal range.
Even a normal arrow would be buffed by the power of the bow. Furthermore, Fang Zhengzhi was using the Million Sword Ill.u.s.tration.
The jade green arrow sailed through the air.
It curved over the heads of all the retreating compet.i.tors. Then, it landed about 300m away, exploding in a flash of green.
”Boom!”
A crater was instantly formed in the ground.
There were two innocent beasts in the crater bathing in their own blood. That was overkill.
”Hiss...”
All of them looked at the devastation just 300m away from them. They hissed and gasped, feeling chills running down their spines.
If this was sent right into the middle of them, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Xiang Tianying and Tang Zhongming looked at the crater and then at each other. Their expressions darkened.
Fang Zhengzhi began to urge his horse forward.
The Mud Striped Horse whinnied as it looked at the other compet.i.tors. Then, it began walking towards the crater.
Fang Zhengzhi smiled to himself. This was the first time he was using the Sun Shooting Bow. He never expected it to be this powerful.
However, this was not what he was most concerned about.
He was more concerned if he could pa.s.s easily after revealing this power.
He scanned all of the other compet.i.tors. Then, he bared his teeth in an attempt to scare them.
None of them noticed his expression. However, when they saw him riding over, they all opened up a path for him.
Fang Zhengzhi was ecstatic.
He did not want to resort to violence. Furthermore, Ping Yang was probably already at the third recording tablet. If he did not speed up, Ping Yang would really be in an advantageous position.
He wanted the first position to himself.
”Fang Zhengzhi, do you really think that you can scare us off with that arrow?” Xiang Tianying blocked Fang Zhengzhi's path.
Beside him was a solemn looking Tang Zhongming.
”Us?” Fang Zhengzhi looked at Tang Zhongming. ”You want a 2v1?”
”Yes! I had thought that one of us would have been enough. However, seeing as you have such a powerful bow to bully us, we will have to combine our powers.” Xiang Tianying nodded.
”I am bullying you all just because I have a good bow? So you want a 2v1?” Fang Zhengzhi could not figure out the logic.
All of the other compet.i.tors were terrified when they heard this.
Even though they knew that Xiang Tianying's reason was no real reason at all, they were not concerned about that.
What was more important was that...
The seventh and eighth ranked talents on the Rising Dragon Roll were about to join forces!
And they were going to combine forces to fight Fang Zhengzhi.
This was bullying.
However, after seeing Fang Zhengzhi's arrow, anyone who wanted to duel him alone had a death wish.
”What... about you all?” Fang Zhengzhi glanced at the others.
”We will spectate!”
”Yes, we will just watch from the side.”
”Rest a.s.sured, we will not interfere.”
All of the others looked at each other and made their stand clear. They were not like Xiang Tianying and Tang Zhongming.
If they tried to interfere, the arrow may be trained on them.
No one was a fool.
Furthermore, with Xiang Tianying and Tang Zhongming combining forces, there was no place for them. Why find trouble for themselves.
They were here for the compet.i.tion.
Fighting...
Was not part of their plans.
Fang Zhengzhi did not want to fight either. However, he could not back down now that he was challenged.
Furthermore, he had no idea who Xiang Tianying and Tang Zhongming were.
As a result, he didn't care.
”Okay then, since we are going to fight, make it quick. My time is limited, I still want to finish first!” Fang Zhengzhi looked at Xiang Tianying and Tang Zhongming.
Both of them were in the top 10 of the Rising Dragon Roll.
They were famed throughout the lands. They had never been condescended to in this way before.
”Finish first? Fang Zhengzhi, you can lie here for the rest of the day!” Xiang Tianying and Tang Zhongming were rivals.
They had not planned to cooperate.
However, Fang Zhengzhi's arrow had caused their confidence to waver.
Tang Zhongming felt the same way. If not for the fact that Fang Zhengzhi had the Sun Shooting Bow, he would not join forces with Xiang Tianying.
If not for the fact that Fang Zhengzhi had caused trouble for him, he would be bathing in glory by now.
He was supposed to finish first or second. However, right now, he was going home with nothing. He was not going to let Fang Zhengzhi off.
