Chapter 3697: High Difficulty

Editor: Henyee Translations

Perhaps it was because they were countries in Asia, which was why they were like this. Perhaps it was because they were picking on the weakest links and felt that even though China was ranked fourth, they would still be weaker than the countries ranking fifth and sixth.

No matter what their mentality was, the Chinese students accepted the gazes of the Japanese students calmly. They would not lose anything by locking gazes with them.

After ten minutes of communication, the students from the various countries were ready. As the command was given, the first batch of students started the match at a high speed. They would shoot with their rifles first before shooting with their pistols.

Ye Jian wasn’t in the first batch to shoot. She waited until the third batch before starting. As the gunshots on the competition ground sounded, the command to change the magazine was given.

Some people were still shooting on the field. Some people immediately changed their magazines. Some people had just started changing their magazines. The gap was obvious.

The targets flashed, and the non-shootable civilian targets appeared. The students had to complete their combat position deployment and shoot while avoiding the civilian targets. It was difficult to balance the two. If the civilian targets kept appearing, they wouldn’t be able to take care of the situation on the other side.

Because of Ye Jian’s reminder, the Chinese students focused on the speed of changing magazines. If they couldn’t avoid a few civilian targets, they would shoot directly. They had to make sure that no bullets were left in the magazine.

“Shoot!”

…

“Change the magazine!”

…

“Shoot!”

…

“Change the magazine!”

…

“Shoot!”

…

Ye Jian and the referee chanted softly. Five shots and four reloads were completed very quickly. The last command was, “Rifle shooting completed! Stop shooting! 30-meter pistol shooting, move forward!”

A second ago, the competition venue was still filled with gunshots. Now, there was only smoke. When the gunshots stopped, the students quickly ran toward the 30-meter pistol shooting point.

As they ran, they carried their rifles on their backs. At the same time, they took out their pistols from their waists and loaded the bullets. Once the referee gave the order to shoot, they could shoot immediately.

“Pistol shooting, start!”

…

The shooting took place in a fixed position. The chest targets and chest targets that couldn’t be shot at appeared one after another. If the students’ hands were too fast and they didn’t manage to stop in time, the bullets might hit the chest targets that couldn’t be shot at. Their points would then be deducted.

The entire competition was in full swing. The smell of gunpowder filled the air.

The first round was over. As expected, some students still had bullets left.

Zhang Minghong, Jiang Yang, and the first batch of students returned and said to Ye Jian, “The targets flash too quickly. Sometimes, I don’t have time to retract my gun and I end up hitting the civilian targets directly. The speed of the rifle is just like what you said. It’s very concentrated, but it’s also easy to hit the civilian targets. I was warned twice and hit the civilian targets twice.”

“I didn’t hit the civilian targets, nor did I leave any bullets, but the accuracy is probably very low.”

There were all kinds of problems. The deduction of points for the first batch of students was stricter. Ye Jian smiled and said, “It’s a rare experience. We have to remember it well. For now, observe the foreign participants. We’ve been observed by them for so long. After we return to the country, we’ll probably become a topic of their discussion.

“We have to have a good discussion too. We have to see which areas we need to improve on and think about which areas we need to train in.

“The things that they have trained before, we have to train as well. If they haven’t trained in something, we have to train in that even more! Concluding our experience and reflecting on ourselves is the greatest gain of the competition. As for our ranking… we definitely have to fight for it.”
