Douluo Continent: Dark Demon God Biao, inheriting the position of an evil god

Wang Dong'er and Zhu Lu, who were already waiting there, immediately came forward to greet them.

Wang Dong'er's face was still flushed with excitement, and there was still a trace of shock in her eyes.

The same was true for Dai Qiu'er, Xiao Xiao, Cui Yajie, Ning Tian, ​​and Wu Feng, who were standing nearby.

They wanted to say something, but after opening their mouths, they looked at Dai Yuntian's nonchalant expression.

Suddenly, all praise seemed inadequate, and in the end, I could only manage to utter one sentence:
"abnormal!"

"Thank you for the compliment." Dai Yuntian smiled slightly.

"you……"

Wang Dong'er was speechless at his unashamed reaction. The next sarcastic remark she had prepared stuck in her throat. In the end, she could only roll her eyes in annoyance and huff, "You're really not polite!"

Zhu Lu, standing beside her, covered her mouth and chuckled softly, her eyes filled with gentle smiles.

Cui Yajie, standing nearby, burst out laughing, her eyes darting between Dai Yuntian and Wang Dong'er, thinking to herself, "Looks like there's something going on between them..."

Dai Yuntian seemed to suddenly remember something and looked at Wang Dong'er, Zhu Lu, and the other girls: "By the way, I have something to do, so I'll go first. Please tell Teacher Mu that I'm asking for leave from the practical class this afternoon."

"Huh? Where are you going again?"

Wang Dong'er immediately asked warily, her relaxed mood rising again.

This guy just made such a big commotion, and now he's going to slip away again?
Zhu Lu also looked at him with a puzzled expression: "Brother Yuntian, what's going on?"

Dai Yuntian shrugged, his expression a mix of helplessness and resentment at being forced to do something: "Old Man Yan assigned me a tough job, asking me to receive the exchange students from Xingluo this year. It's troublesome."

"Star Luo exchange student?"

As the young master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Tian naturally had some understanding of the various forces on the continent.

However, the Star Luo Empire hasn't sent exchange students to other academies for a long time.

Could it be that the Star Luo royal family also has designs on Dai Yuntian?
Ning Tian frowned and looked at Dai Yuntian: "Why did they come to Shrek Academy, and specifically asked you to receive them?"

"Who knows? Maybe the Star Luo royal family has too much money to burn and sent people here to experience life."

Dai Yuntian spoke casually, as if discussing what to have for lunch: "Anyway, I'm just a tour guide and babysitter for a few days, I'll just get by and that's it. I'm leaving now, bye!"

After he finished speaking, without waiting for anyone to ask any more questions, he put his hands in his pockets, turned around, and left.

The women were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

"An exchange student from Xingluo? Could she be a royal princess?"

For some reason, Wang Dong'er suddenly felt inexplicably uncomfortable, as if someone had their eyes on something that belonged to her.

She shook her head, suppressing the strange feeling, and snorted, "It would be better if he became a nanny, exhausting him to death!"

……

Shrek City, North of the city, a rather deserted but exquisitely decorated indoor shooting range.

Dai Yuntian stood outside the building, looked up at the rather artistic sign, then glanced at the note with the address written on it that Yan Shaozhe had handed him, and couldn't help but purse his lips and mutter a complaint under his breath:

"Meeting with the Star Luo exchange students... at the shooting range? What kind of arrangement is this? A dignified Soul Master coming here to play with bows and arrows? This hobby is really retro."

He muttered to himself as he pushed open the heavy door of the shooting range.

The hall was unusually empty, with no one else except for a waiter at the front desk who nodded to him and then looked down at him.

Clearly, the area had been cleared out and booked in advance.

Only the crisp sound of gunfire could be heard continuously coming from the firing range.

Dai Yuntian followed the sound and pushed open the door to enter.

Behind the door is an extremely spacious indoor shooting range with soft lighting and sound-absorbing mats on the floor.

A row of targets was neatly arranged a hundred meters away.

In the center of the arena, a slender yet upright figure stood with his back to the entrance, drawing his bow and nocking an arrow.

She was a young girl dressed in a well-fitting black outfit, with her dazzling long golden hair neatly tied into a high ponytail, swaying slightly with her movements, giving her a heroic and dashing appearance.

She stood tall and straight, her arm holding the bow steady and strong, her profile beautiful and focused, intently aiming at the bullseye in the distance.

The girl held her bow and arrow, still aiming at the target ahead, seemingly unaffected by the arrival of someone.

"call out--!"

The bowstring twanged, and the arrow shot out like a streak of light!

"Snapped!"

The arrow landed firmly on the target, in an excellent position, but... not exactly in the center. Dai Yuntian had excellent eyesight and immediately recognized it as the nine-ring area, just a hair's breadth away from the central ten-ring, practically grazing its edge.

For ordinary people, and even for ordinary Soul Masters, this is already an extremely remarkable accuracy.

Dai Yuntian subconsciously shook his head slightly: "It's a pity that your aiming speed is good, but your accuracy is still a bit lacking."

Although the sound was soft, it was as clear as thunder to Xu Jiujiu, who was a Soul Master and was completely focused at the moment.

She suddenly stopped in her motion as she was about to nock the second arrow.

She slightly furrowed her delicate brows, a hint of displeasure at being "pointed out" flashing across her exquisitely beautiful face.

She didn't turn around, nor did she refute; her clear, cold voice simply echoed in the empty shooting range:

"If you're so capable, then come and try."

Dai Yuntian curled his lip.

Oh? Still not convinced?
Then I have to show you what I've got.

"I'll do it, give me the bow."

He shrugged indifferently, stepped forward, and spoke casually.

Perfect timing! He also wanted to stretch his muscles and, incidentally, demonstrate what true "accuracy" really meant.

The girl then slowly turned around.

Eyes facing each other.

The air seemed to freeze for a fraction of a second.

Dai Yuntian: "How come it's you? Well! No wonder Yan Bapi is suddenly being so generous! So it turns out that your Star Luo Royal Family and Shrek Academy have teamed up to set me up, right?"

Xu Jiujiu was so angry that her chest ached: "I didn't! You're overthinking it!"

"Really not?"

Dai Yuntian's eyes were filled with distrust as he stared intently into her eyes for a long time, as if trying to find any trace of a lie.

Xu Jiujiu gritted her teeth and said, "I said I didn't, so I didn't!"

Dai Yuntian looked at her for a few seconds, and he could see no guilt or evasion in her eyes.

Based on his observation of people, this proud princess did not seem like someone who could act so flawlessly.

"Okay, I'll believe you for now."

Dai Yuntian shrugged, accepting the explanation, but her curiosity was piqued: "However, I'm still very curious, why don't you, the dignified Princess of Xingluo, enjoy your life in the palace and come all the way to Shrek Academy as an exchange student? And... come here to play with bows and arrows?"

He pointed to the crystal bow in Xu Jiujiu's hand, then to the target in the distance, his expression clearly showing his doubt.

In his mind, Soul Masters, especially those of noble royal status, have many ways to train. Using a "primitive" weapon like a bow and arrow seems a bit... out of place for their status.

Xu Jiujiu still felt wronged: "You don't need to worry about that. I have my reasons."

She raised the crystal bow in her hand, her chin slightly lifted, with the pride of a royal princess: "Furthermore, archery can not only train eyesight, arm strength, and concentration, but also strengthen the body and temper the mind. Don't think that only you soul masters with beast martial souls need to pay attention to physical training."

After saying that, she seemed to remember Dai Yuntian's "bad review" of her archery skills earlier, and snorted coldly.

He handed the longbow, which was made entirely of some kind of special crystal, inlaid with tiny gemstones, and with smooth and beautiful lines, directly to Dai Yuntian.

"Here, here you go."

She raised her chin towards the shooting path, a clear hint of provocation and anticipation flashing in her purple eyes: "Didn't you want the bow? Didn't you complain that my shooting was inaccurate? Come on, let me open my eyes and see our young master Dai's 'divine archery'."

After saying that, he stood quietly with his arms crossed for a long time, staring at Dai Yuntian with a hint of amusement in his eyes.

She wanted to see if this guy was just bragging.

It should be noted that among the younger generation of the entire Star Luo Empire, and even among many older archery enthusiasts, no one has ever dared to mock her long-standing archery skills!

She has loved archery since childhood, studied under a master, and practiced diligently for many years without ever slacking off.

Even within the Star Luo Empire, there is the current head of the "Frosty Sky Mystic Bow" family, renowned for its archery skills and with an ancient lineage.

The highly respected archery master, after watching her practice, stroked his beard in admiration and called her "an archery prodigy who appears only once in a century."

This praise has always been one of the things that Xu Jiujiu is quite proud of.

Now, this Dai Yuntian actually dares to say that her "accuracy is a bit lacking"?
Xu Jiujiu's lips curled up slightly, already eager to see Dai Yuntian miss the target or achieve a score worse than his own.

What a fascinating expression that hateful face will make! (End of Chapter)
