The air was silent for a few seconds.
Zhou Sheng's eyes widened suddenly. "Diagonal archery? 100 meters? This is outdoors!"
There are too many influencing factors when shooting archery outdoors.
Wind, sunlight, shadows...
Any one of these factors can greatly affect the accuracy of an archery shot, let alone at distances exceeding 100 meters.
"Put an apple over there, and if I hit it, I win, how about it?" Lu Qian asked.
Looking in the direction Lu Qian was pointing, Zhou Sheng almost said he was dreaming.
This distance is almost 120 meters.
He can barely see, how can he still shoot an apple?
He wants to take back what he said earlier, which was even more arrogant: "You're the arrogant one!"
"OK."
Zhou Sheng readily agreed, went to find an apple, drove over, and left the apple there.
The onlookers were puzzled by what they saw.
I don't know what they're trying to do.
……
Two minutes later.
"How's it here?"
"Okay, just leave it there."
The two are talking on their cell phones.
After placing it properly, Zhou Sheng stood in a safe spot where he could clearly see the apple's condition.
Lu Qian nocked the bow, slowly closed one eye, and aimed at the apple in the distance.
Only now do the people around them understand what this is about.
An apple was hit by a shot from 100 meters away.
This is far more difficult than competitive sports!
"Is this some kind of imitation of shooting the halberd at the gate?"
"Where are the apples? I don't see any!"
"100 meters? I might not even hit it from 10 meters!"
"How could that possibly hit?"
"Just compete normally, or you'll look like a clown!"
"..."
A murmur of discussion arose from the surrounding area, some surprised, others mocking.
Lu Qian focused intently on sensing the wind direction and adjusting the arrow.
At one moment, the bowstring was released, and the arrow flew like a shooting star.
The next second, the apple placed on the stool in the distance flew backward with a "bang," and an arrow was stuck in it.
The entire room fell silent.
"Holy crap! I hit it!" Li Jun exclaimed.
"Holy crap, it actually hit!"
"This is a human being!"
"In ancient times, this would have been a general!"
"Damn, we need to register this!"
Shocked shouts came one after another from all around.
With years of practice, one still has a chance to hit the bullseye at a distance of 70 meters.
At a distance of 100 meters, ordinary people have absolutely no chance!
Even professionals might not be able to do it.
Zhou Sheng walked over, bent down to pick up the apple, his eyes filled with horror.
He was a professional, so he understood how accurate the arrow was.
As for himself, he doesn't even need to try; he simply can't do it!
"This is a human being!"
Zhou Sheng returned with the apple, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
As they passed by the crowd of onlookers, someone spoke up.
"Coach Zhou, you should give it a try, you might just hit the target."
Zhou Sheng's lips twitched. "Sorry, I really can't do that."
He still has that much self-awareness.
He walked up to Lu Qian and sighed.
I'm completely convinced!
Lu Qian smiled slightly, "Even from this far away, I can still get some luck."
Zhou Sheng shook his head. "That might fool laymen, but I'll pass."
"But I'm curious, with your archery skills, how did you end up becoming a teacher?"
"Competing in the tournament would at least guarantee a championship, and I could also become a coach."
Lu Qian thought for a moment, "Maybe I'm more suited to be a high school teacher."
Zhou Sheng didn't understand, but expressed his respect.
The group returned to their room.
"Teacher Lu, you win. You will be in charge of designing Li Jun's training program," Zhou Sheng said in a deep voice.
Lu Qian took a sip of water and said, "I'll leave the training plan to Coach Zhou. Let the professionals handle the professional matters. My idea is to have my academic classes as usual and then go to training in the afternoon."
"Of course, the training intensity can be increased appropriately."
Zhou Sheng pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."
The reason he was anxious earlier was because he was afraid that Lu Qian would overlook Li Jun's archery talent.
I should have known better than to compete.
Zhou Sheng gave a wry smile. "Teacher Lu, if you had said so earlier, there would have been no need for a competition at all."
"I definitely won't train a genius like Li Jun using the methods of ordinary people."
Lu Qian coughed lightly. Actually, he mainly came to get the skills for free.
……
Li Jun felt like he was in a dream today.
For the first time in his life, someone described him as a top genius.
It's not flattery; it's a title I earned myself.
Although Zhou Sheng looked at him with deep reluctance before leaving, which made him feel a little uneasy.
But Li Jun is still a child. He used to only play video games, and the idea of studying only came to him recently.
The biggest award I've ever received was from an esports competition held privately by a game company.
Now, however, he is being encouraged to aim for world-class competitions!
"Brother Lu, can I really do this?"
An unprecedented pressure weighed on his mind.
I feel a little lost and a little uneasy.
Lu Qian glanced at him.
"I've forgotten that saying again: You may not believe in yourself, but you cannot disbelieve in me."
"Now that I've known you for a while, I'm telling you you can understand math. You understand it now, and your grades have improved."
Li Jun nodded.
Seeing this, Lu Qian asked again, "How's my archery skill?"
Li Jun: "Very impressive."
Lu Qian: "Then will you still doubt my judgment?"
Li Jun: "I have no more doubts."
Lu Qian smiled and haphazardly touched his hair.
When you have expertise in your field, others will be more convinced of what you say.
"Li Jun, you'll be practicing archery in the afternoons from now on. Don't let Wang Xu and Qian Zihao surpass you in your studies."
After speaking, Lu Qian looked to the other side.
"Wang Xu, Qian Zihao, and Li Jun have only had half a day to study. If you two still can't beat them, then you're really too weak."
Li Jun sneered, "Brother Lu, just you wait and see. I'll handle both archery training and you two will only ever be my underlings!"
Wang Xu and Qian Zihao were not to be outdone. "Jun-ge, just focus on winning your world championship. We're going to study like crazy. When the time comes, please call us 'Xu-ge' (Hao-ge)!"
The three of them joked and teased each other.
……
Qinghe Huafu.
The huge villa was quiet.
Li Jun's mother died in a car accident when he was young, leaving only him and his father.
Although the father, Li Zhiyuan, wanted to spend more time with his son, he was too busy with company business to spend much time with him.
Li Jun gradually developed a liking for playing games and was able to meet many netizens from all over the country.
Less than half an hour after I returned, I heard the door open and my father, Li Zhiyuan, came in.
Li Jun sat on the sofa and looked over in surprise, "Dad? You're back so early today?"
Li Zhiyuan nodded. He had originally intended to say, "I'll go home and spend some time with you," but the words that came out were, "Yeah, a business deal has been finalized recently, so I can relax for a few days."
The cook left after preparing the meal.
The father and son ate and chatted at the dinner table.
"Oh, right, Dad, I joined the city's professional archery team," Li Jun suddenly said.
Li Zhiyuan was somewhat surprised, "Why are you suddenly interested in archery?"
He had asked Li Jun before if he wanted to learn any hobbies, but Li Jun always refused with "it's boring" or "I'm not interested".
Why are you suddenly interested in archery?
Thinking about what happened today, Li Jun felt a little happy. "My homeroom teacher said I have a great talent for archery, so he plans to let me practice so I can participate in competitions."
Li Zhiyuan nodded, showing no surprise. "Okay, if you like it, go practice. Do you want me to find you a good coach?"
In his opinion, Li Jun's interest in archery was just a passing fad.
But if the kids like it, they can play it. Isn't that what making money is all about?
As for saying that they have great talent, that's just an excuse teachers use to comfort their students.
Seeing his father's reaction, Li Jun became somewhat angry.
"Dad, I have a real talent for archery!"
Li Zhiyuan nodded again, "Dad knows..."
Before he could finish speaking, the phone rang.
After receiving the call, Li Zhiyuan looked apologetic.
"Xiao Jun, I have something urgent to attend to and need to get back to the company right away. You can eat first."
Li Jun sighed, "Okay, I understand."
He's gotten used to it over the years.
He didn't care about the perfunctory attitude he had just displayed.
Wait until I win the world championship, then let's see how you react!
