Ye FengTian turned around. She was quite amused, really. That voice, who had just yelled at her, and her newly made "friend" was still standing there, with a fat finger pointing at them.
Ye FengTian really didn't have the energy to spend on a annoying, little fly, that was pestering her.
She turned around swiftly, a chilling icy aura surrounded her, a sense of darkness creeped through her as her amethyst eyes seemed to glow.
"Oh." That was it.
That was all she replied with.
"I-I wha- how- huh??" The annoying fly protested, her mouth moving up and down and she still pointed her fat fingers at the two, she hadn't even realised that the chuckling and sly laughter behind her were from her "supporters" laughing at her reaction.
"Alright! Enough chatter! We have arrived at the destination!" Madam Wu yelled out in irritation. She had just listened to the fat girl yell out at Ye FengTian and was astounded by the lack of manners and absolute stupidity these contestants where showing. How could they possibly pass this year's entrance exam?
Right after Madam Wu finished announcing that they had arrived at the Archery ground, she walked over to the front of the long green field.
There was a very long and wide field that spanned up to 450 metres in length and it was shocking that such a field even existed within the imperial palace. In front of the fuel but at the very end stood six delicately placed targets and at the very front of the field was stands on uplifted platform made from a refined wood, holding archery bows with feathered arrows stored in a box beside it. Beside these platform where a few horses tied to fence posts on the side, they seemed to be for when the challenge would move onto the advanced level, if they could even reach that level that was.
"Right! Listen up. All of you will take turns to compete. There will be a total of five heats. I believe the judges of this competition will be the princes personally, so do your best!" As Madam Wu was saying this she had a huge expression of doubt of her face. She seemed to almost runaway with embarrassment as she slapped her forehead because she anticipated the upcoming embarrassing scene.
Simply from past experiences, she remembered how the past participants did in this particular challenge and that was, simply put, a horrible and horrifying scene to watch. Most of the participants failed this challenge and only a few daughters that came from General backgrounds proceeded to the next challenge, and even those participants barely qualified. They ended up passing on simply because they beat the other participants by a fair bit, and they could at least hold the bow properly.
As Madam Wu was contemplating and brooding, muttering over the challenge He FengTain has already stepped up to the Archery platform.
As she stood on the elevated the platform she suddenly noticed a gaze on her. She turned around and face that blazing gaze head on with her amethyst eyes, slowly the light in her eyes started to darken. And her original expressionless face seemed to become black in an instance.
There, on the side of the Archery station, was four tables. On the first table sat Madam Wu. She held a fan in her hand and seemed to be contemplating how she could make up for the for the upcoming embarrassment. On the second table was a youthful looking man.
He had snow like skin, so pale that it almost seemed sickly. He had a giant smile on his face as he stared right into those frosty, amethyst eyes.
There, on the second table, with a golden palate with the top I engravedwith 'Judge' sat the the Fifth prince of the Wang Kingdom, Wang Xue.
