For a moment, all the officials in the audience cheered and applauded.

Lin Han looked at Bao Hong in surprise, something was wrong.

For the second arrow, Lin Han gathered his strength, gathered the spiritual power in his body on the arrow and shot it out. When the arrow was about to reach the center of the target, Bao Hong's arrow came closer again.

When the two arrows collided, Bao Hong's arrow exploded and fell to the ground in broken pieces.

The arrow shot by Bao Hong with the first arrow hit the bull's eye, but it broke under Lin Han's arrow and the arrowhead bounced off.

"good."

Applause and cheers broke out again in the stadium.

This time the solution was miraculous.

Bao Hong beside him snorted coldly and drew his bow again.

Lin Han was not to be outdone.

After shooting ten arrows, Bao Hong's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. Every arrow he shot was defused by Lin Han. There was only one arrow on the bull's eye, and the arrow shot by Lin Han was fixed there, which was particularly dazzling.

"General Bao, thank you for your kindness." Lin Han put down the bow and said with a smile.

"General Xiao is indeed an exceptional archer. I've heard he's as brave as an army of ten thousand. Today, I'd like to test his swordsmanship." Bao Hong petitioned Emperor Ling of Han, "Your Majesty, I request a martial arts competition with General Xiao."

"Yes, what do you think, General Xiao?" Liu Hong looked at Lin Han.

"Your Majesty, today is the winter hunt, and we're going to have a competition. It would be better to have some prizes."

"What's the prize?" Liu Hong asked curiously.

"I am willing to accept any challenge, whether in the form of swords or fists, but I would like to offer a year's salary as a bet. If I lose, I will donate it to the victims of disasters throughout the world. If the challenger loses, he must donate his year's salary to the national treasury to provide relief for the victims of disasters throughout the world."

"Good, very good. General Xiao is concerned about the people. I approve."

Emperor Ling of Han looked at Bao Hong and the officials below.

"Did you hear what General Xiao said? General Xiao accepted all the challenges from those in the arena, but he offered a year's salary as a stake. Do you still want to challenge me, General Bao?"

Everyone's eyes fell on Bao Hong.

Bao Hong hesitated, glanced at He Jin secretly, and finally nodded.

"I challenge General Xiao."

"Okay, let's start." Liu Hong waved his hand, looking like he was watching a show.

"General Bao, do you want a cavalry battle or a foot battle?"

"It's a horse battle, naturally."

Bao Hong was full of confidence. As a cavalry captain, he had never been afraid of anyone in the court in horse battles.

"bring it on."

Lin Han rode his horse on the long road in front of the army, looking imposing and holding a long stick in his hand, because he would not hurt anyone in the competition.

Bao Hong also mounted his horse and faced Lin Han from a distance of a hundred meters away.

When the golden horn sounded, Lin Han rode forward.

As the two sides approached, everyone within the canopy, including the civil and military officials, became extremely nervous. They exchanged only a moment's interaction before separating, leaving only one of the horses without a trace of anyone.

Bao Hong was knocked down by Lin Han with a stick.

After just one round, Bao Hong was defeated.

"Well done, General Xiao, you are a skilled warrior. You are worthy of being personally selected by me as the lieutenant commander of the lower army." Emperor Ling of Han was delighted and applauded with laughter. "Who else wants to challenge General Xiao?"

No one among the civil and military officials dared to respond.

The strength of martial arts displayed by Lin Han was something they had never seen before in their lives. To challenge him again would be asking for trouble.

"Since no one dares to accept the challenge, let's end it here today."

Emperor Ling of Han lost interest when he saw that none of the generals dared to fight.

The royal family members began to ride their horses for winter hunting, but Lin Han was called to the Grand Huagai tent by Emperor Ling of Han.

"General Xiao, you are an expert in martial arts. Lead some skilled fighters to protect the princess during her winter hunt," said Emperor Ling of Han.

"Princess?"

"Exactly."

Emperor Ling of Han waved his hand, and Zhang Rang understood what he meant. He walked out of the tent and led a young girl inside.
