Everyone's a Hunter? I'm a Hunter x Hunter!

5 a.m. the next day.

As before, Lü Xiu got up early to practice his sword and eat breakfast.

I stood on the balcony and watched the bustling gold market for a while.

I heard that the fireworks last night blew up a hillside in Jingu Valley, but fortunately no one was injured.

After breakfast, Lü Xiu, Ma Qilin, and Lin Nanwen began their training as scheduled at the training ground in the backyard of the [Golden Gathering].

Lin Nanwen specially booked a closed training ground and provided an unlimited supply of the most basic iron-tipped wooden arrows.

Just then, Lü Xiu's arrow stockpile was almost exhausted.

"Let's change the training method today," Lin Nanwen announced. "Shooting at a high-speed moving target."

"Wind, ever-changing form!"

The hurricane falcon on Lin Nanwen's shoulder flapped its wings and hovered in mid-air. Its body paused, and suddenly streaks of blue phantoms separated from its body.

Before long, the sky above the enclosed training ground was filled with hundreds of identical hurricane falcons. They darted about freely, flying erratically at extremely high speeds, without making any noise, like phantom shadows.

"The Hurricane Falcon will control its clones to slow its flight; your task is to shoot down its clones."

"Lu Xiu, you should start by practicing with a single arrow. Once you can hit the target every time with a single arrow, then you can add more arrows."

"Qilin, you'll start with three arrows."

"Now, let's begin training!"

At Lin Nanwen's command, Lü Xiu and Ma Qilin immediately sprang into action.

They had used moving targets before, back in the Falling Cloud Swamp.

But the targets were ordinary birds that occasionally flew by in the sky. Their speed was less than one-tenth of what the hurricane falcon was currently displaying.

Hitting a high-speed hurricane falcon while simultaneously firing multiple arrows is extremely difficult, even in a small, enclosed training room.

However, it's also good that appropriate high-difficulty training can help improve proficiency.

"Lu Xiu, come here for a moment," Lin Nanwen beckoned to Lu Xiu, who was just about to start training.

"What is it, teacher?"

Lin Nanwen took out a cyan longbow from his spatial backpack and handed it to Lü Xiu.

"This is the level 30 treasure longbow I promised you yesterday."

It's available today?

It doesn't seem to be made from mud dragon crocodile material.

Lü Xiu took the longbow and examined it carefully.

The longbow's body is made of oak, both supple and sturdy. In the center of the bow, where the arrow is nocked, there are two bluish-green patterns resembling wings. The bowstring is dark bluish-black, seemingly the sinew of some creature, and extremely resilient.

Whisper of the Wind Fairy

Grade: Treasure

Rating: 30

Attack +250, Attack Speed ​​+40%, Strength +3, Agility +5, Constitution +2.

Additional skill: Wind Fairy (Passive, increases arrow speed by 50%)

Equipment requirements: Strength ≥ 40, Agility ≥ 50

Durability: 500/500

Description: The bow is primarily made of precious Wind-Dwelling Spirit Wood, and inscribed with the "Wind Soars" inscription to enhance its affinity with the wind element. The bowstring is made from the sinew of a "Wind Spirit Beast," adding extra wind power to the arrows. Arrows fired from it seem to travel alongside wind fairies, moving at astonishing speed!

Compared to his own level 1 Fine Ice Flower, the level 30 Rare Longbow "Whispers of the Wind Fairy" was worlds apart.

The attack power is now five times greater!

However, what Lu Xiu cared about more about this longbow was its passive ability.

Wind Fairy (Passive: Increases arrow speed by 50%)

The Whisper of the Wind Fairy longbow has two speed attributes: attack speed and arrow speed.

Attack speed refers to the speed at which Lü Xiu draws the arrow, nocks it, and releases it. Arrow speed, on the other hand, refers to the speed at which the arrow travels through the air after it is released.

Arrow speed increased by 50%!

Arrows that are already as fast as lightning will be even harder to spot!

Without a doubt, the bow that Lin Nanwen chose for Lü Xiu is a top-tier item, even among longbows of rare quality below level 40!

"Also, skill books and arrows."

Before Lü Xiu could express his gratitude, Lin Nanwen took out a skill book and a bundle of arrows from his spatial backpack.

Spiral Arrow (Hunting Technique)

Grade: Treasure

Learning requirements: Archery (Advanced), Strength ≥ 30, Agility ≥ 30

Description: Twist the bowstring to add more entanglement to the arrow, giving it a spiral acceleration the moment it is released, increasing its penetration and flight speed.

Flame Crystal Arrow

Grade: Excellent

Attributes: Damage +10, explodes upon collision.

Description: This arrow is made of fire crystal. Although it is not as sharp as an ordinary arrow, it will produce a violent explosion if it is even slightly touched. Please handle it with care.

"This Spiral Arrow hunting technique, like your Concentrated Strike, is a powerful single-shot arrow, but the two hunting techniques have different focuses."

"The main purpose of Concentrated Strike is to mobilize mental energy to increase accuracy, while Spiral Arrow is purely an archery technique that can increase damage."

You can practice both archery techniques to improve your skill level.

"Using different archery hunting techniques depending on the situation is also one of the essential points that archers must learn," Lin Nanwen explained to Lü Xiu.

"As for this bundle of Flame Crystal Arrows, I noticed you weren't equipped with any special arrows. Luckily, there was some money left over after selling the Mud Crocodile Dragon, so I brought you some special arrows, as well as arrows with other attributes."

After Lü Xiu received the skill book and the Flame Crystal Arrow, Lin Nanwen took out a bundle of Ice Crystal Arrows and Thunder Crystal Arrows from his spatial backpack.

"They are special arrows similar to Flame Crystal Arrows. They are all triggered upon collision. The difference is that Flame Crystal Arrows explode, Ice Crystal Arrows freeze, and Lightning Crystal Arrows generate electricity."

"Different types of arrows can be used to target the weaknesses of different mythical beasts."

"They can also be used in combination."

"First burn, then freeze, and finally shock. The phantom beast that suffers from your triple attack of ice, fire, and lightning must feel extremely uncomfortable!" Lin Nanwen imparted his experience in using attribute arrows.

"Thank you, teacher," Lü Xiuxin accepted the offer with pleasure.

Keep the Spiral Arrow skill book for now; Lu Xiu's archery skill is only at the intermediate level. Use it later.

However, Lin Nanwen possesses the skill attributes of Spiral Arrow.

[Spiral Arrow (Treasure Grade): Hunting Skill, LV1, Twist the bowstring to add more entanglement to the arrow, gaining a spiral acceleration at the moment of release, increasing arrow speed by 50%, damage by 20%, and adding physical damage equal to 1.5 times the Strength]

Spiral arrows can also increase arrow speed!

The combined speed of the two can directly double the flight speed of the arrows shot by Lü Xiu!

It's clear that Lin Nanwen put a lot of thought into choosing his longbow and skill book.

It feels so good to have a teacher help with the planning.

Unfortunately, Lin Nanwen wasn't his master...

As for the Flame Crystal Arrow, Ice Crystal Arrow, and Thunder Crystal Arrow, a bundle contains ten arrows.

Lu Xiu planned to use them as a trump card.

Fine-grade arrows are already expensive, let alone elemental arrows. They cost at least a thousand yuan each, and they're consumables. They're not shooting arrows, they're shooting money!

However, during his previous battle with the Mud Dragon Crocodile, Lü Xiu learned some things from Ma Qilin. For example, he knew it was important to have some good items like armor-piercing arrows on hand.
