200 rings?

The score announced by the judge left the entire audience in shock!

Isn't it wrong? With ten silver needles, shouldn't the maximum score be 100 rings?

How can Ye Huan have a score of 200 rings?!

Isn't this a joke?

"Judge, were you threatened by Ye Huan to give such an outrageous score? If you really were threatened, just blink, we are on your side and will seek justice for you!" someone said!

"Yeah, if you're threatened, just blink!"

Many people chimed in!

"No... no, I wasn't threatened. According to the scoring rules, if the paths of the ten 'silver needles' are exactly the same, penetrating the same hole, the score is doubled! Ye Huan's toothpick trajectories were identical, and all hit ten rings, multiplied by 2, making it indeed 200 rings!" The judge's tone was shocked, still somewhat unwilling to believe what he saw.

Trajectories exactly the same?!

How can that be?!

The faces of Xiao Feng and others, and the onlookers, all changed in unison after hearing the judge's statement, hurriedly rushing into the field to follow the judge's gaze!

When they saw the middle part of the wooden post two kilometers away had "one toothpick," they were stunned instantly!

From a distance, it looked like one toothpick!

Upon closer inspection, it was actually ten!

Except for the tip of the first toothpick embedded in the wooden post, the tips of the remaining nine toothpicks all pierced the tail of the toothpick in front, connecting head to tail!

Excluding the last toothpick, the tails of the first nine toothpicks were all pierced into a wedge shape!

This indicated that the flight paths of the ten toothpicks had absolutely no deviation, and they were exactly the same!

"Holy crap, how is this possible?!" Xiao Mingxuan's face was stiff, his eyes widened bigger than stones, almost popping out of their sockets!

Everyone present had the same reaction! 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

After a few minutes, the judge forced himself to calm down, wiping sweat from his forehead, swallowing a mouthful of saliva, and said, "I... I announce that in the first round of this match, the Xiao Family triumphed over the Xiao Family with a combined score of 123.5 and claimed victory..."

"Hold on!"

Xiao Mingxuan interrupted the judge, shouting angrily, "Can you be more professional?"

"This is a dart shooting competition, not a toothpick target shooting!"

"Toothpicks are thicker than silver needles and heavier in weight. Compared to silver needles, toothpicks are less affected by wind and other factors during flight, so us using silver needles while Ye Huan uses toothpicks is very unfair. This match's result is invalid! I demand Ye Huan to compete again!"

Xiao Mingxuan's demeanor was quite frantic.

Earlier, when he saw Ye Huan fling out ten toothpicks in one go, he instinctively thought Ye Huan was desperate after seeing his impressive score and didn't want to compete properly anymore.

Now, he was actually the one feeling frantic!

Not just him, but Feng Hao too was somewhat frantic.

The two were unwilling to accept losing to someone they considered an "outsider," both thinking Ye Huan must have cheated; otherwise, he couldn't possibly have achieved such a good score!

200 rings, that is 200 rings!

Not to mention all ten hitting ten rings, each toothpick's flight path had not even the slightest deviation, how is that possible?!

Looking at the Ancient Martial Realm, perhaps besides the head of Huaxia's national medicine, the elder Di Lin, no one could achieve such a feat!

In fact, even the judge couldn't quite believe Ye Huan's score was real, he tentatively asked Ye Huan, "Young Master Ye, actually... I didn't clearly see your toothpick throw action just now, and using toothpicks instead of silver needles... There has never been such an example in the hundreds of past competitions, it's really not quite in accordance with the rules. Could you use silver needles to shoot the target once, to convince everyone?"

Ye Huan's brow slightly furrowed, he really didn't want to waste time doing it again, but thinking about how these people kept questioning him, they might waste more time.

With no choice, he took ten silver needles from the sandalwood needle box hanging at Xiao Qingming's waist, and then, as before, without hesitation, flung them all out at once!

The judge, Xiao Feng, and the onlookers all fixed their eyes on the trajectory of the silver needles!

"Shoo!"

"Shoo!"

"Shoo!"

The silver needles turned into white streamer, creating a flow in the air, piercing through the wind, straight towards the target!

When the ten silver needles all penetrated the 1.5mm hole in the center of the target, the judge and all the onlookers once again stared slack-jawed!

Even more astounding was what came after!

With the first silver needle embedded in the wooden post, the latter nine silver needles, arriving belatedly, collided with the first one, making a series of crisp "clunk!" sounds.

The nine belated silver needles pushed the first silver needle further into the wooden post, before falling to the ground.

At this moment, the entire arena fell into dead silence once more!

"..."

The silence in the martial arts field was so absolute that the sound of the nine silver needles falling to the ground was acutely heard by everyone present.

At this point, everyone's eyes focused on Ye Huan, their faces expressing nothing but disbelief!

Their gaze, previously filled with mockery and doubt, now contained only intense shock!

"Wow! Ten silver needles pierced through the previously toothpick-pierced 1.5mm hole on the target, and finally collided head-to-tail at the front of the wooden post, falling to the ground in succession, which indicates their flight paths were exactly the same, without any deviation! Even a millimeter of error would have prevented the silver needles from colliding together!"

"200 rings! It really is 200 rings!"

"Ye Huan didn't achieve this score through cheating, he earned it with his terrifying skill, achieving this unimaginably extraordinary score!"

"Had his unparalleled skill in Acupuncture!?"

"Even if the head of national medicine were present in person, they surely couldn't achieve a better score than Ye Huan in the needle-throwing event!"

"I can hardly believe my eyes, I thought Xiao Feng and others breaking the record in the needle-throwing event was already amazing, yet what came after was even more astonishing, with Ye Huan performing in one go, scoring exactly twice the perfect score of 100 points? Amazing!"

"The comprehensive score achieved by Xiao Feng and others was already very high, even if Ye Huan scored 100 rings, he would still be dragged down by Xiao Qingming's 47 rings, ultimately losing. That is to say, after Xiao Feng's score came out, the Xiao Family had no further hope of winning, not even immortals could save them, yet what actually happened? Ye Huan was even more amazing than immortals, directly breaking the Xiao Family's certain defeat!"

The group of spectators who had previously mocked Ye Huan were now all immensely shocked to the extreme, stunned by the score achieved by Ye Huan!

Beside them, Xiao Mingxuan and Feng Hao's faces were flushed the color of pig livers, feeling as if they had swallowed 500 tons of manure!

The two had never thought that Ye Huan had honestly scored an outstanding 200 rings with his own ability, rather than by cheating!

Damn, didn't this guy say he wasn't focused on practicing Ancient Martial Medical Technique?

Could he have been playing the fool all along, pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger? Wow!

Meanwhile.

The members of the Xiao Family in the crowd, after a moment of disbelief, fell into ecstasy!

The Xiao Family, they had indeed won a round!
