Tang Yan came up for the next arrow, his movements were still stable.

Twang!

The arrow's parabola was perfect, but the drop point was slightly off, and the arrow dipped too much.

Boom!

9 points.

After shooting, Tang Yan couldn't help but lick his lips. With his current strength, it was still difficult to stabilize his shooting at 10 points.

Qiu Tian came up. He gently massaged his forearm as he was walking up. The exhaustion from his previous rounds were rearing their heads. His arrow count was higher than Tang Yan due to taking longer to defeat his opponents.

But this was his chance. Currently he was still behind by a point. If he could shoot a 10 pointer, he could tie the score.

The audience all watched and looked at the field, fearing that a little sound would affect the performance of Qiu Tian.

Qiu Tian's movements were perfect, the parabola was comparable to Tang's previous arrow.

Twang!

But similarly the arrow's falling point was too low.

Boom!

8 points.

He actually fell even further behind from 1 point to 2 points.

He couldn't help but shake his head after seeing the target, and you could see that his mood was becoming frustrated.

In fact, this was also normal. Tang Yan, who had gained the strength of Li Guang, was unable to continuously shoot 10 points. Naturally he couldn't do so too.

The last arrow.

Seeing Tang Yan preparing, the audience's faces unconsciously revealed faint looks of expectation.

With only one arrow left and his lead at 2 points. As long as he didn't shoot less than a 8 pointer, he couldn't lose.

In other words, they were likely to witness the birth of a new national archery champion after the next arrow.

After Tang Yan fixed his posture, he pulled out the last arrow from the arrow pot.

Qiu Tian looked at him with a slight nervousness.

Tang Yan took a deep breath, then nocked the arrow, and after pre-pulling the bowstring, he aimed at the target in the distance.

During the break between each round, there would be a special staff member to clean up the arrows on the target, that is to say, in a round, there would be at most 3 arrows on the target.

Because this was the last arrow of this round, there were already two arrows on the target from his previous shots, one in the 9 points ring and the other in the 10 points ring.

So adjusting his aim to account for the arrows, he lifted his aim upwards slightly, held his breath then fired.

"Twang!"

The arrow burst through the air and went straight toward the center of the target.

"Boom!"

A muffled sound.

There was no expected cheers from the scene, but instead a steady intake of breath occurred.


The arrow hadn't directly hit the bullseye.

But instead the first arrow! The arrow split the original arrow and became inserted in it...

The referee on the side of the field saw this scene and indicated to suspend the game, and then went to the target to take a look.

The scene suddenly fell into a series of discussions, this situation was nigh impossible to predict or replicate.

Just as arguments arose, the referee raised his hand and gestured to the technical station.

Tian Zhenzhe watched the commotion from the judges' seats and his eyes were full of incredible expressions.

Robin Hood, the hero of British folklore, known as the Earl of Hamilton, his story was widely circulated. Even today, Robin Hood was a famous historical figure.

A hero who robbed the rich and helped the poor, famous for his archery shooting. He was known for his ability to split an arrow using another arrow.

The arrow that Tang Yan had just shot exploded the previous arrow, and the referee observed the arrow as a 10 pointer.

With the advent of this Robin Hood-esque arrow, the final results were out, Tang Yan had won the individual championships.

The crowd broke into thunderous applause. But they soon quietened down.

Because Qiu Tian still had an arrow left, the emotions on the scene gradually cooled. Whilst he had lost they all felt respect for his performance.

The last arrow of Qiu Tian.

Although the outcome was decided, he still sincerely shot his last arrow.

With an arrow of 9 points, he also completed his set.

After this arrow, the cheers on the scene couldn't be stopped, the excitement of the audience seemed to fill the entire venue.

Not only did they witness the birth of a new champion, but the final moment of the championship ended with a rare Robin Hood shot to end off a perfect performance.

If it weren't for the two-meter gap between the stands and the stadium, the audience in the front row would probably rush over to take a photo with him.

Qiu Tian on the side was also applauding Tang Yan.

Losing to such an opponent wasn't a pity for the former domestic archery champion.

Tang Yan felt the enthusiasm of the audience, and also raised his bow and arrow, laughing and waving to the audience.

The cheers on the scene became even louder.

At this moment, Tang Yan was the focus of the venue.

Even the female archers who were preparing for the women's finals next door were looking over and even Shanghai's female ace Zhang Wei, clapped along with the crowd.

What's worth mentioning is that in the finals, Tang Yan shot 116-points breaking the 115-point domestic archery final record that had been maintained for ten years.

The women's competition was still to go, but after this day, the name of Tang Yan wasn't only famous in Zhejiang.

His performance occupied the headlines of all the major sports channels and newspapers.

He was painted as the archer who would recapture archery, for China. With the Asian Games and Youth Olympics upcoming the media started to paint him as a hero.

However, Tang Yan had no time to pay attention to all of this, he was brought to the National Archery Association by Song Feng.

There, he saw the very person he had been hoping to see.

The national face of Chinese archery.

The middle-aged man who summoned him was the head coach of the former Kyoto women's archery team and the current head coach of the national archery team, Tian Zhenzhe.
