After the two men finished inspecting the gun, Chao Ketu took out a pocket watch that he had used for many years and glanced at the time.

Then, he leaned close to Risu and whispered, "Risu, don't go too far if you win. After all, they came with Bayar and Chagan."

"Okay, okay, let's get started!" Risu said impatiently.

Chaoketu didn't say anything, he just stared at him blankly.

Risu felt a chill run down his spine, turned his head to meet Chaoketu's gaze, and softened his voice: "I'll let him make a symbolic shout, is that enough?"

Chaoketu then withdrew his gaze, walked between the two, raised his hand, and gave the order: "Begin!"

Risu immediately mounted his horse, turned to Li Kaixin and gestured with his chin: "Kid, don't cry if you lose later."

Before he finished speaking, he spurred the horse and charged down the gentle slope.

Bayar leaned closer to Li Kaixin and whispered a reminder: "Brother Kaixin, Ri Su's marksmanship is really good, so don't be careless."

Li Kaixin nodded, leaped easily onto his horse, and slowly rode down the slope.

Seeing that Risu had already rushed far away while his master was still leisurely strolling around, Zhou Zhiming anxiously tugged at Master Chen's sleeve: "Grandmaster, why isn't my master in a hurry at all?"

"What's the rush? Just watch, your master knows what he's doing." Master Chen remained calm and unhurried.

The Mongolian youths who had gathered around to watch the commotion couldn't help but sneer inwardly upon hearing this, thinking to themselves that this middle-aged man was quite the braggart.

After descending the gentle slope and waiting for Risu to ride off to the right, Li Kaixin quickened his pace and turned left.

His intentions were immediately seen by the onlookers on the gentle slope, and Chaoketu and the few Mongolian youths nodded slightly.

Risu, who was riding to the right, also noticed it and his impression of Li Kaixin improved considerably.

However, he had no intention of holding back. When he was about 70 or 80 meters away from the gazelle, he raised his gun and fired.

With a "thud!", a gazelle that was grazing with its head down fell to the ground.

A cheer immediately erupted from the hillside, and the Mongolian youths kept waving their fists and shouting something.

After the gunshot rang out, the other gazelles became alert and scattered in all directions.

Without hesitation, Risu spurred his horse and gave chase.

The second shot rang out, and another gazelle fell to the ground. He turned back and smiled at the hillside, his face full of smugness.

On the other hand, Li Kaixin was still moving slowly, as if he was searching for something.

Zhou Zhiming panicked again: "Grandmaster, look! They've already taken down two people, and my master is still just wandering around!"

This time, Master Chen ignored Zhou Zhiming and kept his eyes fixed on Li Kaixin.

Finally, about two hundred meters from the herd of gazelles, Li Kaixin reined in his horse. He dismounted, lay prone on the ground, and began to aim his gun.

The first shot was fired, but nothing was hit; the gazelle was still leisurely grazing.

The second, third, and fourth shots all missed.

Upon seeing this, the Mongolian youths on the gentle slope couldn't help but grin. They had thought Li Kaixin must be quite capable to dismount so far away, but it turned out he was just a show-off.

But by the fifth shot, their smiles had vanished.

After figuring out the bullet deviation patterns in this area, Li Kaixin's next shot never missed.

Moreover, because they were far away, the gazelles he knocked down only startled a few nearby; the rest continued to graze as if nothing had happened.

Unlike the Japanese and Soviet Union, where you had to chase after a single enemy on horseback for ages, you didn't have to do that.

As shot after shot fell, the gazelles were mercilessly harvested.

Mr. Chen, who was on the gentle slope, finally breathed a sigh of relief and was about to turn around and say a few words of comfort to Zhou Zhiming.

But as soon as he turned his head, he saw Zhou Zhiming had already moved up to the group of Mongolian youths, glancing at them sideways: "Why aren't you saying anything? Weren't you laughing quite happily just now?"

As he spoke, he pointed down the slope, "See that? See that? Do you think you can do that?"

Master Chen's lips twitched as he looked at him.

At this moment, Chaoketu understood that Japan and the Soviet Union were likely to lose this time, and he couldn't help but worry about the boy.

Bayar caught a glimpse of him out of the corner of his eye, a clear smile on his face: "Brother Chaoketu, what's wrong with you?"

"Um... Bayar." Chaoketu hesitated for a moment before tentatively speaking, "After the competition, could you put in a good word for me with Comrade Li Kaixin and ask him to spare Risu this time?"

"Don't worry about that!" Bayar patted his chest. "Brother Kaixin isn't petty. As long as Risu is willing to apologize, this matter will be over. You can rest assured!"

Hearing this, Chaoketu felt a little more at ease, but then became curious again: "Bayar, judging from your tone, you and Comrade Li Kaixin seem to be quite familiar with each other?"

"Of course! Brother Kaixin saved my life and Chagan's life." Bayar said, his tone filled with pride.

Chagan nodded in agreement, his face full of approval.

Chaoketu became even more curious and, no longer bothering to watch the race down the slope, pulled Bayar aside to ask about the details.

Time passed second by second. Risu rode his horse and chased after the yellow sheep, getting further and further away. He was already far away from Li Kaixin's side and had no idea what was happening there.

He was still thinking: when it's over, I'll definitely show off in front of those people and let them see what I'm capable of.

Just thinking about how those people were speechless with shock made Risu feel like he'd been injected with adrenaline, and he increased the force in his legs.

Time passed slowly, and an hour quietly went by.

Li Kaixin only changed locations twice throughout the entire journey. In his direction, there were already patches of fallen gazelles, at least thirty or forty of them.

Risu was also riding back from a distance, occasionally dismounting to string up his hunted prey and drag it behind his horse.

People on the gentle slope also mounted their horses and rode down the slope.

However, Chaoketu couldn't control the expression on his face. What Bayar and Chagan had just told him was truly astonishing.
