Although Alexander didn't know exactly how skilled Qin Zian was in archery, given his status and the honor of hitting the bullseye just now, Alexander had complete trust in Qin Zian.

At the same time, Alexander also understood that such an opportunity to deeply exchange archery skills with the Dragon Kingdom was invaluable.

Therefore, Alexander cherished it greatly and listened with great fascination.

He practiced meticulously according to the method taught by Qin Zian.

First, adjust your standing posture so that your feet are firmly planted on the ground, shoulder-width apart, with your knees slightly bent to maintain stability and flexibility.

Immediately afterwards, Alexander took a deep breath, letting the air swirl in his chest, and then slowly exhaled to calm his inner turmoil.

Only by calming the mind and concentrating can one proceed to the next step.

Once Alexander felt that his emotions had calmed down, he gripped the bow tightly with both hands and gently touched the bowstring with his fingers.

In that instant, Alexander seemed to sense the soul of the bow and arrow through the delicate and subtle touch.

He carefully felt every stretch and relaxation of his muscles, and every subtle adjustment of his fingers gave him a deeper understanding and control over the bow and arrow.

Finally, when everything was ready, Alexander took a deep breath and drew back the bowstring.

At that moment, Alexander felt an invisible force filling his body, propelling the arrow to pierce the air and hurtle toward the distant and unwavering bullseye.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Alexander finally released the arrow in his hand...

"Whoosh—"

The arrow traced a graceful arc through the air, its sharp, powerful sound proclaiming its determination and strength to everyone.

However, fate seemed to play a little joke on Alexander. The arrow only lightly touched the edge of the target, failing to reach the bullseye, which symbolized glory and perfection, let alone the coveted bullseye.

Its landing point was still quite a distance from the first ring road, as if silently telling the story of the regret of its first attempt.

A murmur of discontent rose again from the crowd; some shook their heads and sighed, while others whispered among themselves…

Without exception, they all opposed Alexander hitting the bullseye.

In contrast, Qin Zian did not show any unusual emotions because of this temporary setback.

He maintained a gentle smile throughout, as if the defeat had never happened.

Qin Zian walked to Alexander's side, gently patted his shoulder, and looked at him with encouragement and trust in his eyes.

“Alexander, don’t worry about this temporary setback. At least you can hit the target now, and your shooting technique is getting more standard. Next, all you need to do is aim at the bullseye and make sure your arrow lands steadily in the center.”

After Qin Zian's encouragement, Alexander's mood instantly improved, and he no longer dwelled on his previous defeat.

Alexander took a deep breath, shutting out all the unfriendly voices from the outside world.

The path of archery is never smooth; every failure is a necessary step on the road to success.

With this thought in mind, Alexander raised his bow once again, adjusted his breathing, and allowed his mind to return to its initial calm and focus.

In the ensuing shooting, Alexander did exactly as Qin Zian instructed, constantly adjusting his shooting posture.

Under Qin Zian's careful guidance, Alexander's next few arrows seemed to be reborn.

Even though he didn't achieve a perfect score of ten rings, each of his shots was more composed and accurate than the last.

Gradually, the surrounding tourists stopped taking Qin Zian's guidance as a joke and stopped wanting to see Alexander make a fool of himself.

They watched Alexander's every move intently, every time he drew his bow, aimed, and released it.

Until the sixth arrow was shot, the arrow drew a near-perfect arc in the air and landed steadily on the edge of the bullseye with an indescribable elegance.

Nine rings?!

Nine rings!!!

This time, Alexander actually scored a nine-ring mark, much better than his previous scores of four or five rings.

Faced with such a good result, not only did Alexander himself show an incredulous smile, but even the onlookers cast approving glances at him.
