NovelOnlineChapter 675 After all, many professional archers only have this level of skill. Hitting the bullseye is only even difficult for experts, and hitting a nine is already quite impressive.
Most men can only hit a seven or eight ring.
But Isla actually hit a nine ring on her first try? "Miss Saunders, you're really something." "She's always been good at archery. The Saunders family has trained her exceptionally well." "And she's also the team leader in MI6. She's talented and beautiful." Whispers could be heard all around them.
Isla listened to them with a sense of pride, but she didn't show it too obviously. She just smiled at Sylvia and said, "Miss Andrews, it's your turn now." Sylvia looked at her expressionlessly and casually raised her bow and arrow before shooting without even aiming properly! She barely glanced at the target before releasing the arrow.
Everyone felt sorry for her as they watched how casual she was being. They probably thought that Sylvia had no chance of winning since she wasn't very professional-looking or serious about it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe didn't even aim properly; how could this work? However...
Bang! "Ten rings!" The mechanical voice rang out through the entire arena.
The whole place became extremely quiet in an instant - even quieter than when Isla had shot a nine earlier! Everyone stared wide-eyed in disbelief at Sylvia.
Ten rings? Are you kidding me? She didn't even aim properly, did she? Wasn't her posture incorrect when pulling back on the bowstring earlier? Isla often came here to play, so everyone knew that she was skilled enough to hit a nine. There was nothing surprising about that. But... why was Sylvia able to shoot better than Isla by hitting ten rings with such ease? This...
Can anyone just shoot ten rings like it's nothing nowadays? Isla stared stiffly at Sylvia, feeling shocked beyond words. When she saw Sylvia's posture earlier, Isla had secretly rejoiced because surely victory would be hers! But now...
She felt like everything was going blank in her mind as if someone had knocked over all of her thoughts onto their side.
Isla gritted her teeth in frustration, convinced that Sylvia was just lucky to hit ten rings.
Judging by Sylvia's posture, Isla could tell that Sylvia was just a beginner.
Isla had practiced tirelessly for weeks leading up to such skills. How could she let Sylvia outdo her so easily? Taking a deep breath, Isla tried to calm herself down. She told herself that it was just luck on Sylvia's part and that she could still win if she focused.
But as soon as Sylvia took aim again, Isla knew it was over. Another perfect shot landed right in the center of the target.
"How is this even possible?" Isla exclaimed aloud. The entire room fell silent once again as everyone stared at Sylvia with awe and disbelief.
Sylvia remained nonchalant despite all the attention. She casually picked up another arrow and let it fly with ease. Hitting yet another bullseye! But this time something even more incredible happened: The arrow pierced through an earlier shot already lodged in the center of target! Everyone gasped at what they had witnessed - an impossible feat of skill and precision beyond anything they had ever seen before.

All those fantasies about crushing Sylvia underfoot were shattered now; there was no denying how truly talented she really was...
She clenched her fists tightly, feeling like she was bringing shame upon herself.
So...
It suddenly dawned on her that driving so fast really didn't matter to Sylvia! And Sylvia's talk about accelerating was truly professional! She wasn't just bluffing.
Sylvia put down the bow and arrow in her hand and looked quietly at Isla.
"Miss Saunders, best two out of three. Okay?"
