Chapter 116: Missing the Mark

  It's your turn, said Song Ke Xin with a provocative glance at Li Xiao Bai.

  At the same time, a girl from the cheerleading squad had already brought the bow and arrow in front of Li Xiaobai without him having to move.

  However, Li Xiaobai shook his head and didn't accept it at all.

  To everyone's surprise, Li Xiaobai walked over to the rest area, opened his backpack, unzipped it, and rummaged through its contents.

  "Li Xiaobai, what are you trying to do? Are you stalling for time?" Song Kexin said with a mix of dissatisfaction and disdain.

  Ignoring her provocation, Li Xiaobai directly took out his own trump card from his backpack.

  "Slingshot..."

  The girl closest to Li Xiaobai was the first to notice the Y-shaped slingshot in his hand, and her small mouth opened as she said in surprise.

  "How embarrassing... your brother is so embarrassing..." Guo Jing suddenly turned his face away and whispered to Tao Huan, "Isn't this a child's toy? What did he bring it out for?"

  As Li Xiaobai's deskmate, she felt a bit embarrassed, didn't Li Xiaobai feel ashamed?

  Others were also speechless, did he really want to use this match?

  "Hah... what is this..." Song Ke Xin thoroughly burst out laughing, "What are you doing?"

  "Shooting arrows is not my thing, but using a slingshot for competition should be fine, right?" Li Xiaobai walked to the starting line of the second round with his slingshot, "Isn't it just about accuracy? Or do you think you can't win, so you don't agree?"

  Anyway, first use words to suppress Song Kexin and then talk.

  Having never practiced archery before, it's definitely a sure loss if I start learning now.

  However, as for slingshots, I've been immersed in them for many years, from shooting birds when I was a kid to shooting birds and whatnot when I grew up...

  "I'll lose..." Song Ke Xin smiled first, then sneered, "You can use whatever you want, but after the match is over, don't make excuses."

  To be honest, both Song Ke Xin and Xia Xian Er are quite aggressive, so why is it that the impression of Xia Xian Er isn't bad, while the impression of Song Ke Xin is extremely poor? Although I also know that there are very subjective reasons for this, mainly because he gets along relatively peacefully with Xia Xian Er, but is completely incompatible with Song Ke Xin.

  Standing on the starting line, Li Xiaobai began to take out the slingshot's bullets from his pocket.

  That's dough...

  A girl couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hand and let out an incredulous cry.

  Others looked at Li Xiaobai as if they were looking at an alien, was he here to make a joke today?

  The sound of teasing laughter came over, and although Li Xiaobai had gotten somewhat used to it, he still felt a bit uncomfortable at the moment.

  "You... you're using this..." Song Ke Xin also didn't mince words, and after finally steadying herself, she said with a hint of teasing, "Not bad, it can stick on there, and in an instant, I can clearly see how many rings were hit. However, you'd best not miss the target."

  He casually ordered someone to go across and take a look at Li Xiaobai's ring, and the dough couldn't be reported out all at once.

  You, what I said was an insult from the bottom of my heart, it's just that you made me kneel down, and in a fit of anger I blurted it out.

  Don't blame me if I win without mercy then.

  Even if he didn't know if he could win or not, Li Xiaobai was still furious, this Song Kexin is too despicable.

  Start by putting some dry dough in a pastry bag, open the horse's step, stretch out your left arm, and do the aiming work.

  Whoosh!

  No need for Song Ke Xin's time, relying solely on feeling, Li Xiao Bai released the pouch that was clamped in his left hand.

  Bang!

  Under everyone's astonished gaze, the dough stuck to the target.

  At the same time, many people looked at Song Kexin, only to see that her face didn't look very good.

  "How many rings?"

  Song Ke Xin was stunned for a moment before speaking up.

  "Five Rings."

  The five rings, at this time, everyone's surprise was no longer so strong. Song Ke Xin seven rings, in this way, the winner is still her.

  After all, it's a dough ball, if it were steel balls, the effect might be better. Li Xiaobai thought with some regret. But ordering steel balls online at night, they couldn't be delivered to his home the next day. If he went to the supermarket to buy them, would the supermarket have such things? It had been a long time since he last went there.

  Song Ke Xin's complexion also looked a bit better. What if I can hit the target? As long as my accuracy is high enough, won't I still win?

  Standing on the shooting line, still with a smooth and natural motion, this time Song Ke Xin's aiming time was also much shorter, as if she not only wanted to surpass Li Xiao Bai in accuracy, but also didn't want to fall behind in other aspects.

  A shadowy figure flashed out a mark, and the sharp arrow had already pierced the target.

  Eight Trigrams!

  The second shot, Song Ke Xin directly hit eight rings. This level is absolutely professional.

  "Now your brother is going to lose..."

  The words behind had not been spoken yet, but Li Xiaobai's movements became even faster.

  Just take a glance, and the dough has already flown away.

  Seventh ring!

  The boy standing not far from Li Xiaobai's target walked over and reported the score.

  His bullets are just flour balls, even if they miss the target and hit his face, it won't hurt much from a distance of ten meters, so there's nothing to worry about.

  Seventh ring?

  This time, everyone's face turned a bit strange.

  It's clear that Song Ke Xin has even more professional equipment, with a stronger counterforce and less impact on the arrow in flight, but Li Xiao Bai still managed to score seven rings, a score comparable to that of a professional, leaving many people speechless.

  "Not bad, your brother..." Guo Jing said, having completely forgotten about their previous conversation, "Yuan Yuan, how did he train?"

  "He often shoots birds alone, and it seems he has even shot streetlights and broken other people's windows," Tao Huan's face turned a bit red, "After all this time, he should be quite skilled by now..."

  Ah...

  Gao Xi and Guo Jing both looked at Li Xiaobai with a glance, unexpectedly finding that when he was young, Li Xiaobai had such a violent side.

  Li Xiaobai couldn't tell them that it wasn't violence, but just pure and utter boredom.

  Moreover, having smashed someone's glass, compensation is not even mentioned, and on top of that, I was severely scolded by my family.

  It was then that I completely stopped playing with slingshots.

  However, when I was sleeping last night, I suddenly found it on the bedside table.

  Memories of his childhood flooded back, and Li Xiaobai felt that perhaps this was an opportunity.

  After all, even small birds flying in the air have been hit, this is not a moving target after all, and it's always relatively simple in terms of difficulty.

  Also feeling the pressure from her opponent, Song Ke Xin only scored three rings in the next target.

  As soon as this shot was fired, Song Ke Xin lowered her head, biting her lips, and no one could see what expression she had on her face.

  Wow!

  When Li Xiaobai threw out this ring, everyone was amazed.

  Perfect score!

  The slingshot was used as an arrow, and the dough was used as a projectile. Surprisingly, it hit the very center of the target area.

  Upon hearing the noise, Song Ke Xin also lifted her head up, and for the first time, a look of panic appeared in her eyes.

  When it comes to the slingshot, there are more distractions, and sometimes, hitting is just a feeling. However, being able to hit ten rings, Li Xiaobai himself was also a bit surprised. In that case, he couldn't lose.

  Originally, Li Xiaobai didn't think he would win the competition. But this score of 10 rings exceeded his expectations...

  Now three goals down, his own score is 22 rings, while the opponent's is 18 rings. Song Ke Xin's normal standard is absolutely not inferior to him, but now her psychology has been affected. So, his opportunity has come.

  "Don't forget, it's under the crotch."

  Seeing Song Ke Xin gritting her teeth and taking aim, Li Xiao Bai walked up to her side and seemingly casually said a sentence.

  His hand trembled slightly, and then, as if possessed by a spirit, the fingers that held the bowstring relaxed, and the arrow flew out like a headless fly.

  Song Ke Xin missed the target!

  A miss is scored as 0 ring.

  Li Xiaobai quickly caught up. Although he only scored four rings, he further narrowed the gap.

  "Li Xiaobai, you're shameless."

  After hitting this target, Song Ke Xin couldn't calm down for a long time and glared with anger.

  Li Xiaobai didn't care about her either; since she wasn't going to make a move, he would take the initiative.

  The next few shots hit their targets one after another, although they didn't score very high, but also never fell behind.

  After finishing the game, every time Song Ke Xin wanted to aim, Li Xiao Bai would intentionally or unintentionally make a duck egg hand gesture.

  With a whoosh, Song Ke Xin took a deep breath and finally shot an arrow.

  One ring!

  In an instant, the atmosphere became eerie. No need to look again, Song Ke Xin had already been defeated completely.

  It seems that she realized this, and Song Ke Xin's two hands went limp, also not having any intention of continuing.

  "I lost..."

  Taking a few deep breaths, suppressing her indignation, Song Ke Xin finally spoke.

  "Then, I'll admit defeat." Li Xiaobai's cold voice came out, "Fulfill your promise."

  At this moment, Song Ke Xin's beautiful face also lost its dazzling luster.

  Humiliation from below, she's just a girl.
