"Alright. The competition will now start, first off, I will explain the rules. First and most importantly no cheating.

This is obvious and expected of all participants to not use underhanded methods for winning. I ensure you all that winning doesn't secure your place in this school, other factors are considered as well, so I implore you all to be honest and try your best."

Madam Wu scanned her harsh and fierce gaze across the crowd of young girls listening, she then sighed and continued on,

"Secondly, this is a Archery competition and I understand some of you may never have even touched a bow. However, this may seem unfair, but Jade Academy only expects the best of the best.

Although, this is a fair entrance exam and understand that there are participants that may have not received the right training for all competitions. This is losing this competition is still alright and won't affect your final evaluation.

Alright, if you have understood these two rules then I expect to see you all at the welcoming ceremony."

Having finished explaining the Rules, Madam Wu walked towards the girls, when she was a fair distance away from them, she stopped.

"Those on the platforms already. Get ready, after the count down you will shoot at the target at the same time. If you do not know how to shoot an arrow, simply step off the platform now." She announced suddenly, her booming and strict voice steady.

No one stepped off the platform.

Ye FengTian sighed internally.

She recalled Madam Wu's words and thought to herself,

'This is just a show off competition. A competition to brag about one's social standing. What a waste of time.'

She turned her amethyst eyes icilytowards the target, without giving it a glance whatsoever she waited for the countdown to start.

"Three, two, one. Draw your bow and Shoot!" Madam Wu announced.

Bang. The arrow shot out from Ye FengTian's now hit the blue ring of the target.

"What?"

Somebody muttered under their breath.

Everybody turned towards Ye Feng Tain.

A audible sigh escaped Ye FengTian's Lips as she knew that this time the situation had been miscalculated.

She had..really overestimated her opponents' ability to shoot an arrow. Was her luck this bad that she had to verse such easy opponents? Perhaps she should have just shot the arrow towards a hay bale, like her opponents did.

"The winner of this round is Ye FengTian! Judges, would you like to evaluate it again?"

Madam Wu turned to face the three 'judges'.

Suddenly a snowy white hand was raised, and a pair of glossy, youthful eyes suddenly stared at platform one, to the far left.

"I do!" The youthful prince suddenly called out.

'Of course he does.' Ye FengTian icily thought, although her face was mostly covered with the veil, which also muffled her bright, vibrant amethyst eyes, the veil could not conceal her cold aura being excluded.

"Ms Ye FengTian, am I correct? I don't know, but I get this feeling like I've met you some where before."
