Volume 1, Chapter 4: Breaking the bow in Chapter 5, shocking everyone
Bai Qi stepped out and moved forward steadily.
At this moment, Miao'er pursed her lips, thinking to herself how to comfort Brother Bai Qi if he failed.
The head of the village and others were concerned that Bai Qi should not tire himself out when shooting the bow.
The others shook their heads. He had thin arms and legs and looked sickly, so there was not much hope for him.
However, Bai Qi went straight past the first bow.
What! ?
Erniu and Heiwa were shocked and wondered if Bai Qi had lost his mind.
Then, Bai Qi passed the second bow, and the villagers in Bai Qi's village all widened their eyes.
Bai Qi passed the third bow, and the elite soldiers around him all looked at him sideways.
When Bai Qi passed the third and fourth bows, the three generals on the stage held their breath.
"What a joke, is there anyone here who can draw the fifth bow? Only Li Tianba back then could have done that!" The general of the Qin family army couldn't help but mutter.
"Brother Bai Qi..." Miao'er nervously clutched the corner of her clothes, feeling extremely nervous, with both anticipation and fear in her heart.
Bai Qi picked up the fifth bow and poured his inner strength into his arms, "Open!"
Crunch, crunch...
The teeth-grinding sound of pulling the bow was heard, and the hard bow was pulled open little by little.
"Oh my god, it's really open!"
"The fifth bow weighs 300 jin, which is 100 jin more than the second bow!"
As everyone looked on in disbelief, Bai Qi pulled the bow into a full moon.
boom--
The crowd exploded instantly.
"Wind, wind, wind!"
This time, not only the soldiers cheered, but all the old Qin people couldn't help but cheer along.
The martial spirit dormant in their hearts was ignited at this moment.
The head of Baiqi Village was dumbfounded and murmured, "Is this still Baiqi? Am I old and blind?"
Erniu was also stunned. He looked at his own thick arms and then at Bai Qi's thin arms and legs, and felt like he was questioning his life.
Miao'er was overjoyed, "Miao'er knew that Brother Bai Qi is the best!"
On the high platform, the three young generals were also very excited.
Such a brave warrior can be found in such a small place like Heifenggou.
"A-level, it must be A-level!"
Just as they were loudly announcing Bai Qi's results.
But Bai Qi suddenly shouted angrily, and used his arms to exert force again, "Open it for me!"
What he wants to do now is to demonstrate his strength, gain higher evaluations, and then get more rewards.
There was only a loud 'bang'.
The bow was actually broken.
In an instant, the whole place was silent!
The soldiers forgot to cheer, the villagers forgot to shout, only their eyes were fixed on the broken longbow.
Shocked, dizzy, dazed, and incredulous.
Miao'er covered her chest and felt like her heart had stopped beating. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tenderness that seemed to melt Bai Qi.
The village head tore his beard off, but he didn't feel any pain. He still remembered when Bai Qi was first exiled to the village.
He was so thin that he couldn't even lift a bucket of water, but now he can break a 300-pound bow.
This world is crazy.
Then, the old head of Baiqi's village looked at the head who had just demonstrated against him with a provocative look. Seeing the other party's expression as if he had seen a ghost, he was delighted.
Erniu completely doubted his life. All he wanted to know now was where the food he ate had gone.
"This is even more powerful than Li Tianba back then!"
The general of the Qin army twitched his lips fiercely, especially when he saw Bai Qi's thin arms and legs, it was even more difficult for him to accept such a result.
“I want to give him the highest praise!”
The generals of the Qin family army were extremely excited, because this was an old Qin man!
"Don't worry, there is another test. Breaking a hard bow can only mean that he is born with supernatural power. The real warriors of the Great Zhou Dynasty compete with more than just strength!"
Beside him, the general of Yue Army said lightly.
But there was also a burning light in his eyes, and it was obvious that his heart was not as calm as he appeared.
"The second test is actual combat!"
"It will test your courage, endurance, bravery, and battlefield adaptability."
"Villagers retreat, the assessment begins!"
Following an order from the general of Yue's army, the soldiers pushed out more than a dozen prison carts from the rear. The people on the prison carts were not people, but wild boars, white wolves, leopards, and black bears.
Finally, there is a gorgeous tiger.
"roar--"
A tiger roar echoed throughout the valley.
In the parade ground, more than a hundred recruits felt their scalps tingling. They were all hunters, and who had not seen the horror of wild beasts?
A tiger can smash an adult's face with one claw. There are barbs on its tongue, so a lick can turn a person's face into a bloody mess.
Even Bai Qi frowned slightly. He had never heard of such an assessment.
The next moment, something even more shocking happened. The soldiers took out more than a hundred sticks and threw them at the recruits. Are these their weapons?
Then the soldiers formed a fire circle with the fire.
"Those who persist for one stick of incense will pass."
"Those who persist for three sticks of incense will be ranked first!"
"Release the beast!"
The animal cages were pushed into the fire circle. The beasts howled as they were burned by the flames, making them even more violent. With an order, the soldiers opened the animal cages and ten ferocious beasts came out.
The wild boar weighing more than 300 pounds let out a howl and rushed towards the recruits like a truck.
As they passed by, people and horses were thrown to the ground in a rush.
At that time, there was a new soldier who shouted in fear that he didn't want to be a soldier anymore. He threw away the stick in his hand and ran out of the circle of fire.
Although they are hunters, they usually use traps and bows and arrows to attack wild animals. Only fools would confront wild animals head-on.
And now there is not even a suitable weapon.
Isn't this tantamount to seeking death?
Many people's mentality has collapsed.
"You're useless! Are you scared to the point of peeing your pants? If you were facing an enemy force ten times your size, wouldn't you be running away?"
The general of the Qin family army snorted coldly, obviously dissatisfied.
The other two generals also shook their heads and sighed. It was obvious that the performance of the new recruits was too poor.
"Form a formation!" Suddenly, the sturdy man who had pulled the fourth bow roared.
The villagers around him immediately formed a human wall and thrust the long sticks in their hands like spears. With everyone's combined strength, they instantly blocked the wild boar's attack.
"beat!"
When the wild boar lost its speed, he led four men out, wielding sticks, and hit the wild boar's same hind leg hard.
With a snap, the wild boar's hind legs were broken.
"Excellent!" The general of the Qin family army clenched his fist. This was the superb military quality of the Qin people. These were the soldiers he wanted.
"Good!" The strong village head roared with joy.
Then he looked at the head of Baiqi Village in a protesting manner and snorted, "What's the use of being strong? Can you beat wolves, tigers and leopards? Our village is the first to deal with wild beasts."
The villagers of Baiqi Village were so angry that they blew their beards and glared.
He slapped his son on the head and scolded him, "How do you usually train these kids? Don't you know how to form a formation?"
"Erniu, Heiwa and the others are so stupid. What does it have to do with me?" his son complained.
At this moment in the battlefield, the people from Baiqi's village had already been scattered by the chaotic crowd and the beasts, and could not form an effective formation at all.
The villagers of Baiqi Village stamped their feet in anger. They had finally defeated the other villages, but this time they were going to be defeated again.
"This is the difference between individual bravery and coordinated combat. Can one person turn the world upside down? No!"
"So, Bai Qi cannot be considered a Great Zhou elite warrior at all."
"A true warrior must have the courage to face death and fear, to fight fierce battles, and to live in the face of death."
On the general's platform, the generals of Yue's army shook their heads. The elite warriors of the Great Zhou Dynasty were evaluated comprehensively, not selected as archers.
The sturdy man who pulled the fourth bow raised his chin towards Bai Qi in a defiant manner, "I am the Great Zhou elite warrior!"
There was no one from the same village around Bai Qi, so the outcome was obviously doomed. How could one person fight a tiger or a leopard in close combat?
However, the next moment, Bai Qi walked out of the crowd and walked firmly in one direction. No one dared to go there because there was a gorgeous tiger more than three meters long lurking there.
"Brother Bai Qi!" Miao'er covered her mouth, her eyes full of fear.
