Elf Emperor, professional vase

Chapter 10

The white-haired boy jumped up and glared at Su Bai, "Who are you talking about, grandpa!"

After Su Bai looked around, his eyes fell on the white-haired boy's face again, and he asked doubtfully, "Is there a second white-haired person here?"

The white-haired boy was so angry at Su Bai that he jumped up and down, "How on earth do I look like an old man!"

Su Bai tilted his head, "But your hair is white."

"You!" the white-haired boy said angrily, "I'm only sixteen years old!"

Su Bai's pupils trembled, and his face was full of shock, "Sixteen?"

"Huh." The white-haired boy snorted, crossed his arms and said, "Are you shocked?"

However, the next moment, Su Bai murmured, "Is this the legendary premature aging?"

White-haired boy:......

Among the elves, hair color turning white is a sign of aging, and when the hair color turns all white, it means that the elf has reached the end of his life.

The moment life completely disappears, the elf's face will quickly grow old, and then turn into dust and dissipate between heaven and earth.

But...Su Bai frowned slightly, looking at the angry look of the white-haired boy, he really didn't look like a dying old man.

After struggling for a few seconds, Su Bai let himself go.

After coming to this world, Su Bai saw and heard too many magical things, many of which were beyond his understanding, such as the huge airplane that could fly in the air without magic.

Therefore, Su Bai felt that maybe this white-haired boy was also one of the beings that he could not understand.

Just when several people were looking at each other, a female voice suddenly came from not far away.

"So you are here! I finally found you!"

Su Bai turned around and saw a young girl with a camera hanging around her neck running quickly in this direction, "It will be easy for me to find her!"

After seeing the camera in the girl's hand, the white-haired boy immediately stood up straight, straightened his clothes, and struck a pose that he thought was cool.

Tao Qiuyu stopped, his eyes turned around between Su Bai and the white-haired boy, and then stopped on Su Bai, "Hello, Mr. Su, do you still remember me? We will meet on the plane. Just passed by."

Su Bai nodded, "Hello."

Hearing Su Bai say that she remembered herself, the smile on Tao Qiuyu's face became even stronger. Her eyes fell on the white-haired boy beside her, "Is this Mr. Su's friend?"

Su Bai was stunned for a moment, friend?

On the other side, the white-haired boy had jumped up from the ground, "Not friends!"

Seeing the white-haired boy's reaction so fiercely, Tao Qiuyu was also stunned. She looked at Su Bai, then at the white-haired boy, and hesitantly said, "What happened just now?"

Why are you so tense all of a sudden?

"Nothing, nothing." Coach Yao Hao quickly came out to smooth things over, "Miss Tao, are you going to start filming now?"

"Yes." Tao Qiuyu smiled and nodded, "Take some photos of the waiting area and the game later. Then you will have a lot more options to choose from."

On the other side, the white-haired boy who was ignored by everyone couldn't help but said, "Hey."

Tao Qiuyu turned around and asked doubtfully, "Hello?"

The white-haired boy hesitated for a while and then asked, "Are you here to interview him?"

"I am the photographer invited by the organizer." Tao Qiuyu said with a hearty smile, "Do you also want to take pictures? I can help you..."

"No need!" The white-haired boy picked up his recurve bow, turned around and left. If he stayed here any longer, he thought he would be pissed to death.

After walking a certain distance, he suddenly stopped, turned around and said to Su Bai, "See you on the field later, I will definitely beat you!"

After saying that, before Su Bai could speak, he ran away.

Tao Qiuyu held the camera and listened to coach Yao Hao's explanation of the cause and effect. He comforted Su Bai, "Don't be too nervous. Just be normal. The further you go in archery, the more your mentality will be tested. If your mentality is not stable, your results will be poor." It’s prone to fluctuations.”

Su Bai thanked Tao Qiuyu for his kindness, "Thank you, I'm not nervous."

Seeing that he really didn't look nervous, Tao Qiuyu felt relieved and said, "By the way, can I post the photos I took online later?"

Su Bai had no objection to this and nodded, "Okay."

"Great!"

After getting Su Bai's consent, Tao Qiuyu held the camera and found several angles, and took pictures happily.

After taking the photo, she carefully selected nine pictures and posted them on her social platform.

Found an elf shooter [happy]

[Photojpg]x9

Although Tao Qiuyu has just been into photography for a few years, she has talent, is willing to work hard, and constantly absorbs new knowledge, so she quickly became popular in the circle and gained quite a reputation.

As soon as the photo was posted, people quickly started commenting on it.

【So handsome! 】

[Damn it, Sister Tao, where did you find this beauty? 】

[Thank you Sister Tao for helping me wash my eyes! 】

[This kind of appearance is the kind that makes people shine in the entertainment industry! 】

[It would be nice if the ears were a little pointier! It's more like an elf! 】

[Where has Sister Tao gone? 】

[Photographer Tao Qiuyu: This elf archer is also one of the contestants in the outdoor archery championship league held in Danfu City~]

[Archery competition? 】

【Still in Danfu City? Why haven't you heard of it before? 】

[Hey, I'm in Danfu City now. I just checked the specific location and am already packing my things and going out! Go meet a great beauty! 】

【I am also in Danfu City! But I'm still working! I hate! 】

[This game should last for several days, right? Isn’t it the weekend tomorrow? 】

[But, are you sure he won't be eliminated early? 】

[Yes, this is indeed possible. 】

Although he said this, there were not many people who were actually willing to move.

Danfu City Archery League

On the competition field, the 72rd archer had just finished shooting six groups of 636 arrows, with a final score of .

This result is remarkable in the domestic league, and judging from the involuntary smile on athlete No. 63's face, it is obvious that he himself is quite satisfied with this result.

But his smile quickly faded from his face.

The sixty-fourth archery ranger came on stage, and it was the white-haired boy who had a dispute with Su Bai and the others before.

The white hair on the top of the head stood up and up, as if it had been plated with gold in the sunlight.

He held a recurve bow painted bright red in his hand and stood calmly on the firing line.

According to regulations, archery athletes must shoot all six arrows within four minutes. On average, each arrow has 40 seconds of preparation time.

The white-haired boy tightened his grip on the recurve bow in his hand, his eyes fell on the target seventy meters away, and the other one pulled up the bowstring——

The long arrow whizzed past, and the electronic scorer came out with a very satisfying voice, "Nine rings."

It seems like it's off to a good start.

The white-haired boy thought in a relaxed mood, and at the same time, he took out the second arrow with his finger.

"Ten rings."

"Ten rings."

"Nine rings."

"Ten rings."

After all thirty-six arrows were shot in the first round of six groups, the white-haired boy shot a total of 345 arrows.

In the audience, the coach who accompanied the white-haired boy nodded with satisfaction, "As long as he can keep up, Luo Yun should occupy one of the top three positions in the ranking competition."

"Is he the kid you used to treat like a baby?"

"Yeah, how about it, not bad, right?" The coach smiled proudly, "With Xiaoyun's strength, the selection for the national team this time should be safe."

"He is still young. If he can go further, he may be able to sweep all archery competitions in the future."

"Hahahaha, little kid, I don't need to praise you. Let me practice in the domestic league first and stabilize my mentality."

Anyone can see how proud he is when he says this.

Coach Yao Hao, who accompanied Su Bai, couldn't sit still.

Coach Yao Hao has heard about Luo Yun, a young man. Luo Yun is Luo Xiao's cousin, and the last spot in Fengdi Archery Club is reserved for him.

It's just that Luo Yun doesn't usually train at Fengdi Club, but trains elsewhere with his own coach.

This time I came to the competition not with anyone from the Fengdi Club.

Before this competition, Yao Hao knew about Luo Yun's reputation as a genius, but he had never seen it with his own eyes.

until now.

Yao Hao glanced at the big screen not far away, which was displaying the athletes' real-time results and rankings in real time.

If the white-haired boy Luo Yun can maintain his performance in the second round of archery, then he can basically book the first place in the ranking competition.

Thinking of this, Yao Hao couldn't help but look at Su Bai worriedly.

Yao Hao knew how Su Bai obtained the place in the competition, and also knew Su Bai's goal of participating in the competition.

Now it seems that Su Bai may be disappointed.

But what surprised Yao Hao was that Su Bai still looked very calm, as if he didn't notice the pressure from the outside world at all.

"That's okay." Yao Hao comforted himself, "With Luo Yun here, the championship is unlikely, but the runner-up can still compete."

Also looking at Su Bai like Yao Hao was the white-haired boy Luo Yun who was resting in the field.

He snorted coldly, and after carefully checking his recurve bow, he came to the firing line again.

The sound of breaking the sky sounded one after another, and one after another the ten rings gradually attracted the attention of the audience inside and outside the venue.

Archery seems to be a simple sport, just draw the bow, aim, and shoot.

But if you want to practice well, it is not that easy.

From a distance of seventy meters, the target may not be clearly visible, let alone the bullseye.

In addition, pulling the bow string also requires extremely strong arm strength. Ordinary people may be able to pull the bow string, but once or twice is fine, what about ten, twenty, or even hundreds of times in a short period of time?

During the ranking matches, the time for one arrow was 40 seconds, but in the knockout rounds and finals, the time for one arrow was reduced to 20 seconds.

No sport is simple. What appears to the audience as light and heavy is the ten years of hard training behind the athletes.

"Whoosh-"

The last arrow was shot, hitting the bull's-eye, another ten rings.

At the same time, the total number of rings of the white-haired boy Luo Yun was also calculated.

"697 rings."

On the display screen, Luo Yun's name jumped up and immediately became the number one.

In the audience, someone quickly took out his mobile phone and searched for world records.

"72 arrows, 700 rings!"

"Damn it, there are only three rings left to tie the world record, and four rings to break the world record!"

"I can't believe it."

"I thought record-breaking things like this only happened at the Olympics."

“This time the whim really came to the right place!”

"Isn't this boy from the national team?"

"Probably not. The national team members should be competing for the world championship."

"Even if he isn't now, he will probably be selected into the national team in the future. His strength is astonishing."

Listening to the comments from the surrounding audience, Luo Yun's coach tried hard to suppress the raised corners of his mouth. However, Luo Yun's ranking results were so good that he ended up laughing even more crazily.

In sharp contrast to Luo Yun's coach, it was coach Yao Hao who accompanied Su Bai.

As soon as Luo Yun's ranking results came out, Yao Hao's heart skipped a beat. He had only one thought in his mind now. He hoped that Su Bai would not be affected by Luo Yun's results, stabilize his mentality, and strive to successfully pass the knockout rounds and enter the finals. Get the runner-up spot!

Tao Qiuyu put down the camera in his hand, looked at the high-spirited white-haired boy in the camera, and couldn't help but feel excited.

Other athletes who participated in this outdoor archery championship league and acquaintances also gathered together to discuss this surprising young man.

One person couldn't help but said, "Fortunately, I was ranked in front of him. Otherwise, if I accidentally lost my mentality after seeing his results, it would be the end."

The other person couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I'm the one behind him."

Hearing this, other athletes stepped forward and patted each other on the shoulders, "Enjoy the game."

Luo Yun is obviously very satisfied with his results. Before the competition, in every simulated competition in the archery club, the number of rings he shot was between 680 and 690. This time he was considered to have performed exceptionally well. .

When he was leaving, Luo Yun couldn't help but glance in the direction of Su Bai.

However, this look made Luo Yun himself angry and fell back.

Su Bai still looked the same as before.

There wasn't even a trace of fluctuation on that beautiful and overly beautiful face, as if the 697 ring he just shot was ordinary.

Player No. 578 didn't know whether it was because of his own lack of strength or because he was overwhelmed by Luo Yun's results and his mentality collapsed. The final ring score was .

After looking at the results of player No. 65, coach Yao Hao suddenly became even more restless.

This is obviously the result of player No. 65’s mental breakdown. Coupled with nervousness, his final results were a mess.

He wanted to comfort Su Bai, but he didn't know how to speak.

Yao Hao looked at Su Bai who was carefully inspecting the recurve bow. After holding it in for a long time, he only said, "Don't be nervous, come on!"

Su Bai stood up and said calmly, "I'm not nervous, really."

For Su Bai, there was only one thing he needed to do now, to make every arrow penetrate the tenth ring of the bullseye.

Walking to the starting point, Su Bai raised his head and looked at the arrow target seventy meters away. The ten rings of the bullseye had been painted yellow, which seemed very conspicuous. However, seventy meters away, the yellowed The bullseye is just a small dot.

Su Bai held the recurve bow in his left hand, picked up a long arrow in his right hand, and placed it on the bow string.

After a few seconds of aiming, Su Bai let go of his fingers, and the long arrow shot out of the wind, whizzing into the bullseye.

The electronic scorer promptly gave the score of this arrow, "Ten rings."

Su Bai's face was calm, and he stretched out his right hand, and picked up the second arrow with his index and middle fingers, still with ten rings.

In outdoor archery competitions, there are many more factors that will affect the results than indoors.

Especially the weather. If it's too hot, the athlete's mood will be easily affected. Coupled with sweating and an unstable mentality, it's easy to cause problems. If it's too cold and the fingers are blown by the cold wind, even if they are not frozen, their movements will be stiff. There is lag.

If there is a little wind or a little rain, the impact will be even greater.

The ranking match consists of two rounds, with six groups of six arrows in each round.

Su Bai has finished shooting the first five groups, a total of thirty arrows, each with ten rings.

In the sixth group, the interval between each of Su Bai's arrows became a little longer, but it did not exceed the prescribed time.

After the sixth group was finished shooting, Su Bai's first round results were also displayed on the electronic display nearby.

360 rings!

After Luo Yun finished shooting, he did not leave. Instead, he found a place that was not in the way and folded his arms to watch the battle.

After seeing Su Bai's results in the first round, his expression became more solemn.

The coach on the side also became serious.

345 rings was originally a very good result, but under the background of Su Bai's 360 rings, it seemed to become a bit bleak.

After the first round of ejaculation, Su Bai went straight to the rest area without saying anything.

It wasn't until Su Bai handed the bottle to him that coach Yao Hao finally came to his senses and quickly unscrewed the bottle cap for him. If Su Bai hadn't insisted, he would have even wanted to feed Su Bai water himself!

"How do you feel now? Are you still okay?"

Su Bai took a sip of water and moistened his throat, "It's okay."

Yao Hao felt that he was now more nervous than Su Bai, who was going to compete.

Although there is a rest time between rounds, just the action of pulling the bow string is equivalent to continuously lifting a weight of 14 to 23 kilograms. No, it is more tiring than lifting a heavy object, because when you pull the bow string, you can only Use three fingers.

Therefore, as time goes by, the archery athletes' physical strength is also greatly depleted.

After the break, Su Bai stood in front of the firing line again.

But this time, most people in the entire archery venue consciously kept quiet, for fear that the sound they made would disturb the archery athlete's state.

Su Bai squinted his eyes and looked at the bullseye in the distance. He could feel that the strength in his arms was rapidly losing.

He released his fingers and the long arrow flew out, breaking through the air.

However, the moment the long arrow was shot, Su Bai frowned slightly, as if he was not satisfied with his arrow.

Sure enough, the next moment, the sound of the electronic scorer came, "Nine rings."

From the beginning to now, on the tenth set of arrows, Su Bai deviated from the target for the first time.

Even though the location he shot was infinitely close to the tenth ring, it was still within the range of the ninth ring.

On the audience stage, Tao Qiuyu followed Su Bai so closely that she even forgot to press the shutter!

Hearing Su Bai shoot out the first nine rings, Tao Qiuyu came back to her senses and quickly raised the camera, but after a moment, she put it back.

Tao Qiuyu was worried that the sound of pressing the shutter would affect Su Bai. Although she knew in her heart that the possibility was very small, she just didn't want any mistakes to occur.

Luo Yun was lying on the railing with a serious look on his face. He raised his head and glanced at the count on the big screen. It was the last group.

The last six arrows, four minutes.

Normally, these four minutes would have passed by in a blink of an eye to the audience present.

But now, they feel that these four minutes are as difficult as forty minutes.

In the quiver originally filled with long arrows, only the last arrow remained.

On the big screen nearby, Su Bai's total number of rings had reached 688.

It was only 697 rings away from the 9 rings shot by Luo Yun.

If Su Bai can shoot 9 rings, he will be tied for first place with Luo Yun, and if he can shoot 10 rings, then he will be ranked first in the ranking competition with an advantage of one ring.

With everyone watching, Su Bai put the last arrow on the bowstring.

Everyone held their breath.

The next moment, Su Bai's last arrow roared out.

"Ten rings."

On the big screen, the total number of rings after Su Bai's name also changed to 698.

After a short period of silence, the scene instantly erupted into thunderous cheers.

Tao Qiuyu pressed a series of shutters, capturing every second of the tall young man in the competition field into his camera.

Perhaps, the only person who was dissatisfied with this result was Su Bai.
